A Beginner’s Guide To Astral Projection
Every spiritual tradition speaks of a world beyond our own — an ethereal realm that exists just beyond the veil of the physical senses. Whether it’s Nirvana in Buddhism, Asgard in Norse mythology, or the Elysian Fields of the ancient Greeks, these higher dimensions are seen as places of transcendence and divinity.
Traditionally, such realms are associated with the afterlife, but that’s only part of the story. The truth is that we don’t have to die to access them. These higher planes of existence can be explored while we are still very much alive.
While mystics, shamans, and seers have spoken of these realms for millennia, modern science, particularly in the fields of quantum theory and consciousness studies, is beginning to acknowledge the possibility of multiple dimensions, parallel realities, and alternate timelines. Phenomena such as déjà vu or lucid dreaming, for example, may be brief collisions between timelines or conscious overlaps with other dimensions where versions of ourselves already exist.
So how do we consciously access these mystical realms? The practice of astral projection — also known as astral travel, out-of-body experiences, or lucid voyaging — is one way to do just that.
The idea of consciously traveling beyond the physical body has appeared in various cultures and spiritual traditions throughout history. Although interpretations vary, many civilizations have incorporated the concept into their myths, religious practices, and mystical philosophies.
Why You’re Absolutely Meant To Be Here!
Lately I’ve been hearing more cries for help from clients saying things like: “I really don’t want to be here anymore,” “No one will even miss me when I’m gone,” or “This world is not for me, I never belonged here anyway.”
This sense of despair seems to have increased in recent times. For many, there seems to be an overwhelming sense that the world is spinning out of control. More and more people are struggling with a deep sense of disconnection and hopelessness, triggered by the relentless pace of global upheaval and chaos.
Some also speak of a deep inner alienation — a quiet pain that comes from trying to reconcile their heartfelt values and dreams with a daily reality that feels cold, uncertain, cruel, and fragmented. They no longer see the compassion, unity, or progress they once believed in, and this leaves them questioning their place in the world, or if they even belong here.
It is a powerful reminder of the urgent need for the world’s lightworkers to rise — to hold space, to nurture hope, to foster connection, and to work toward a more compassionate and sustainable future.
I, for one, do not share this negative view regarding my place and purpose in this world, because about three decades ago I faced a serious illness that nearly ended my life. This traumatic chapter led me to a profound realization: we plan our lives before we incarnate, and we all absolutely belong here!
You Are More Powerful Than You Know!
You have a lot more creative spiritual power in you than you probably realize.
Within you resides the spark of divine intelligence, the same infinite creative force that shaped the stars and set the universe in motion. Seriously.
You’re not just a physical being trying to figure out life — you’re a creative force of energy with access to something incredible: your higher self.
When you begin to connect with your soul light within, everything begins to shift. Your energy changes. Your mindset changes. And before you know it, your whole life can start to look and feel completely different — your relationships, your health, your money, your confidence, everything.
And the fastest way to raise your vibration and step into this next-level version of you? It starts by synchronizing your heart, mind and body with the light and wisdom of your higher self.
To begin moving into this higher energy, you need a clear vision of where you want to go. This is more than daydreaming — it is creating a real energetic blueprint for the life you want.
Find a quiet, comfortable place where you feel safe and comfortable. Then begin to write out your future life as if it’s already happening. Imagine yourself a few years from now — how are you living? Who are the people around you? What do you wake up every day looking forward to?
The Tarot Is A Mystical Bridge To Spiritual Insight
Mysterious, symbolic and highly energetic, the Tarot is a high vibrational tool that can help us explore the deeper meaning behind the events of our daily lives, and the influence of Spirit in our earthly existence.
The Tarot especially offers guidance in situations where may feel lost or confused, and it serves as a mystical bridge between our physical reality and the metaphysical realm.
The cards have their own energy, a high vibrational frequency, which Spirit uses to communicate messages of guidance, encouragement, insight and caution.
Every Tarot reader has their own set of spiritual gifts and psychic abilities, and therefore we tend to each develop our own reading style accordingly.
In my own readings, I find that Spirit most often seeks to illuminate areas in our lives where changes and healing may be needed, in order to bring about the most beneficial future outcomes. This can be anything from the need to shift one’s perspective, to the need to let go, or sometimes the need to simply accept things as they are.
Ultimately, I find Spirit uses the Tarot to get us ‘unstuck,’ so we get back in the flow. When we are in the flow, or in alignment, we are creating with the Universe, instead of creating resistance. Only then are we truly moving toward our highest good and the fulfillment of our greatest potential.
The Tarot is a conduit for communication with our guides and our higher self, through which we can gain a deeper understanding of the soul lessons and the magic happening in our lives.
Trust Your Gut First, Your Heart Second
How do you know that what you are doing is for your highest good? How do you know if what you want out of life is based on your own desires, or if it has been placed there to be achieved by the Universe?
Everyone has a higher purpose in this lifetime and yet many never seek it out or achieve it because the ego starts to become more prominent in their lives instead of their higher self.
When you were born, a deep-seeded life calling was placed within you. As children, we were able to tap into it, always knowing that we wanted to be a fireman, a policeman, a doctor, an astronaut, an artist, a lawyer, a dancer, a scientist, or a princess. Some of us just wanted to help others, even at a very young age. We would be kind, caring, and giving to other people, whether they were children, adults, or seniors.
Unfortunately, this energy has been buried over time by the society and culture we live in – whether it be teachers, parents or mentors.
Has anyone ever laughed at you when you told them what you wanted to do or be? Did someone say, “Go back and think about that, because that will never happen”? Each of us has a different story as to why we do or do not achieve our passion and purpose in life.
Today is the day to decide, “I will achieve my dreams as long as they come from spirit and are for my highest good.
Reclaim Your Power With Higher Consciousness
To fully embrace the divine love, guidance and support that surrounds you, your heart and mind must open and expand with increasing inner confidence and soul alignment.
This natural progression follows your initial spiritual awakening and allows your higher self to unfold. As you align more deeply with the universal flow, you gain access to higher states of consciousness and greater spiritual clarity.
As you embark on this transformative spiritual path, you may feel an acceleration of energy in and around you. This sensation is not random; it is a direct reflection of the profound shifts that are taking place on a soul level.
The energy of your environment also begins to shift in response, creating a dynamic interplay between your evolving consciousness and the world around you.
Throughout this process, your ancestors, spirit guides, and angels walk beside you, whether you consciously recognize their presence or not.
One of the fundamental truths about the spiritual realms is that energy moves much faster at higher frequencies. The higher dimensions operate at a refined vibrational level that is different from the density of our everyday physical reality.
As you attune to these higher frequencies, you will begin to notice an inner transformation — one that affects your thoughts, emotions, and overall perception of life.
When Spirit Calls Your Name
There’s something undeniably enchanting about the stillness of night, when the world shuts down, distractions fade, and our spiritual awareness sharpens.
In these moments of silence, I sometimes feel a spiritual presence calling my name. It’s not a voice I hear with my physical ears, but rather a telepathic resonance in my heart and mind that awakens me from the state between wakefulness and sleep.
When this happens, I pay close attention because I know an important message is coming.
Many of my clients say they have similar experiences. They describe being in bed, about to fall asleep, when suddenly they hear their name or feel that someone is right next to them. Some immediately feel a deep sense of peace, while others are startled, unsure of what they have just experienced.
If you have ever heard your name called in the silence of the night, know that it is no accident and certainly not your imagination. These whispers from the unseen realms always come with purpose. They are gentle yet powerful reminders that you are not alone on your life journey. Your spirit team is calling for your attention, nudging you to listen, to reflect, and to receive the wisdom they wish to impart.
It is normal to feel fear when we do not understand what is happening. But for those who hear these calls, I offer this assurance: these moments are sacred. They are benevolent invitations to truly listen, to open your heart and mind, and to receive guidance from your team of spirit helpers.
