| | | | | Astral Projection
The movement of the astral body outside the physical body while it sleeps. In astral projection the conscious mind leaves the physical body and moves into the astral body, which in turn travels through the astral plane.
In astral projection the astral body remains attached to the physical body by an ethereal silver colored "umbilical type" cord.
According to Occult, Theosophical, and New Age traditions, there are two difficult "keys" to astral projection:
1 - the "will-less will" concept (Alistair Crowley). 2 - the focus on letting body sleep and keeping the mind awake.
According to the same traditions, once one masters astral projection, the universe becomes totally open for exploration. One can travel through time, view past lives, explore other worlds, planets and dimensions, heal others, engage in astral sex with loving spirit partners, build sturdy psychic self-defense barriers, visit the home of the elements, and create personal rituals that are more potent than any enacted on the physical plane. One would be able to also view what are known as the Akashic Records, compendiums of all knowledge of the soul's long journey through the cycles of life, death, and rebirth.

Online since 1995 — at first in a free web space provider (Tripod.com), and in 1997 finally with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the unusual. |
