The Seven Basics of Astral Travel
Have you ever had a dream where you were able to fly? Wasn’t that an incredible experience? As it happens, astral travel is very similar to this. Astral travel refers to the way that your astral body traverses the astral plane -by flying. All you need to do when you are astral traveling is to think of where you’d like to go and what you want to do; your astral body will take care of the rest, flying to your destination.
Astral travel is commonly confused with dreaming. However, it is the case that most dreams are just our subconscious mind processing the events of our day. While we sleep, our minds are at work trying to puzzle out some things which it could not resolve while you were awake. This is a natural and helpful process. Most of these dreams we don’t remember at all – if we do so, it is usually just in small fragments, half remembered for a short time after waking.
Your experiences of astral projection are actually the dreams you can remember. It is a worthwhile investment to keep a dream journal to record your dreams. You can do this when you wake in the middle of the night as well as when you first wake up in the morning. Be sure to write down as much as you can remember of these dreams. Even if they do not make much sense to you, write them down anyway. Before long, they will make sense to you.
