Astral Projection for Beginners: Six Techniques for Traveling to Other Realms

Excellent book for beginners. Clear, well written prose from an author who is experienced at writing books and conducting workshops, and can relate not only reports from others, but her own personal experiences over the years. She spells out (no pun intended) the what, the why, and the how in orderly progression. In Part One ("Preparation") she clarifies what astral projection is and is not, different ways people perceive it when it happens, and how long it typically takes to learn to do it (varies widely). She also clarifies common fears and mistakes that trip people up. She details how to prepare oneself not only for actual sessions, but also why it takes time and patience to develop one's ability. She clearly explains the usual warning to never try to project while holding any negative thoughts such as anger or fear. The reason? As she (and others) repeatedly caution, in the projected state, every thought seems real - immediately. Negative thoughts and feelings can instantly appear as monsters or other unpleasant experiences that seem frighteningly real. So too the usual warning against trying to spy on others or use projection to harm another. Intention, whether to help or to harm, works back on the one holding it. Rather like trying to attack another by directing a laser at a mirror. The effects, she warns, can be unpleasant not only in the astral plane but in the physical as well. But she doesn't stop at cautions. She details how to clear oneself of such thoughts so as to approach projection in a clear, peaceful frame of mind. She also includes a caution I have not encountered in other books: avoid trying to project while physically ill. She explains that she learned from unpleasant personal experience that doing so takes energy away from the body just when it is needed for healing, and the result can be a much more severe illness. She also details simple, effective ways to protect oneself from anything unpleasant that might be encountered in the astral experience and how to distinguish helpful from untrustworthy entities one might encounter. Another element I have not seen in any other book is her emphasis on record keeping. A systematic diary of one's efforts and experiences, she explains, allows one to recognize progress that is only apparent in reviewing one's own records. It also shows what works and what doesn't for one, which is usually different for different people. She recommends a loose-leaf notebook. A jewel in here is a detailed illustration of a diary form layout she suggests. Creating a set of blank forms like this allows one to easily record details in a consistent format without having to think hard every time about what to write and how to write it. This makes it easy to quickly record notes and then to compare them across the weeks and months. In Part Two she details six different methods of actually achieving projection, because different people prefer different methods. She explains how one method is the easiest but takes more time, while a faster method requires more effort. In Part Three she describes three specific things one can use projection for: viewing one's "Akashic records" (one's own history and purpose in life), remote healing, and creative visualization (also called "manifesting" - setting up an intention that will later appear in physical form). I have read several books on this subject and I find this the clearest and most helpful book I have found yet. I heartily recommend it to anyone new to this subject.

I have not yet finished the book yet but its really good and I like it a lot. I can see I'm going to enjoy the rest.It's very easy to read and I like how she puts in examples and experiences. The book covers meditation, how to travel and come back safely, protection, beings you might encounter and how to deal with them( negative or positive) and a lot more. The topics she covers are detailed and I like how she dont focus too long on any particular topic. Good amount of info. I've only read about astral travel from my books on witchcraft and online so this is my first book. I would recommend this book to any beginner or any one that's looking for more info on astral projection. The price is good. Fair to say any beginner would enjoy this book. Try it out to see for yourself.

This is truly a great book for those who are interested in astral projection but are still new to the subject. Its also a great refresher course for those more comfortable with the topic.

Good read

This is great book, especially for the novice, with practical techniques and advice. So for those interested this practice is not dangerous.

Love this book! I prefer to read more general information on this type of topic that can help anyone, vs personal experience and this was most definitely a book to help anyone find the best way to astral project! So far still working on meditation but my dreams are becoming more vivid and I am experiencing more control over those dreams for now. I will be reading this book a few times!

Readable.

Astral Projection for Beginners is a great book for learning techniques on astral projection and lucid dreaming. Because there are several different techniques to help one get to the astral plane, I think that one of them will be right for the reader. I am a huge fan of the author.
