Select a room where you can be alone for a while. Find a comfortable chair to sit in, and position it so that you are facing either a bare wall or a wall with very few decorations. If it is necessary you might want to move some of your furniture around, so that when you sit you have as simple and as unobstructed a view as possible. Now when you have achieved this, select some object that has a simple design and place it in the room so that it will be directly in your line of vision when you are sitting. I find that a table lamp that is painted in one colour or at most two colours works well for this. You don’t want an extremely complicated painting, because that is too difficult to visualize, at least at first. And you do not want something that is too banal, because it won’t present enough of a challenge to your budding powers. You want something that you can visualize accurately without undue effort.[1/4]
>>42233714Once you have selected your object, whether it is a lamp or whatever, put it where you will not see anything else when you look at it. Now sit down and study the scene in front of you. Take just a minute or two, and notice all the visual details, then close your eyes and try to ‘see’ the room and the object just as you did with your eyes open. This is a visualization exercise, but with a difference. When you visualize the room in front of you, you want to see it in your mind’s eye just exactly the same way as you saw it with your physical eyes. You want to put your mental images ‘out there’ as it were, so that the wall of your visualized room seems to be the same distance in front of you as the wall of the actual room. The object that you have placed in front of you should be in your visualization just as far away as the actual object is. Now this may seem obvious to some of you the supeerrr intelligent /x/ anon, but I emphasize it because a common beginner’s mistake is to put the mental images inside the head. If you want to achieve much success with astral projection you must surround yourself with your images, so that you ‘see’ the room the same way with your eyes opened or closed.Now at first your images will fade quickly. This is to be expected, and when it happens, you are to open your eyes, survey the room in front of you again so as to refresh your visual memory, then close your eyes and once again try to ‘see’ the room in front of you. Continue this exercise for ten to fifteen minutes at a session, and try to have at least one practice session every day.[2/4]
>>42233725One thing that you will find in this type of development is that a brief session of ten or fifteen minutes a day will accomplish more for you than forty minutes to an hour every four days. After you have sharpened your powers of visualization somewhat, so that you are ready for something more complicated than a table lamp, let me suggest that you try a clock. Look at the clock, then close your eyes and rest for several minutes. Then visualize the clock in front of you. If you really are having any success in working toward astral projection, you will find that the clock you see in your mind’s eye will show the correct time. Of course, that doesn’t mean anything unless you allow some time to elapse between looking at the clock and visualizing it. But if you do some few minutes of meditation you will give the hands time to change position. As your practice improves, you may visualize a clock in a different room. Some students have worked with this experiment until they could instantly tell the correct time at any hour of the day without looking at a timepiece.[3/4]
>>42233731After about two weeks of this kind of practice, you may start having some spontaneous astral projection experiences. Don’t expect too much at first. And especially don’t expect to have instant control of the sort some Indian mahatma might have. But if you persist you may find some evening as you are dropping off to sleep that you have the experience of ‘stepping out’ of your body just before you lose consciousness. These experiences will come most frequently in the late evening and in the very early morning, as you are just awakening, since it is at these times that the tension between the astral and physical bodies is weakest. Another experience that you may have is being able to actually see the room in front of you with your eyes closed, especially when you are meditating or after you have just awakened in the morning. At first these experiences will not be well developed; you will see, as Plato said, as if through a glass, and darkly. But in time you will be able to see better, and when you find that you can see clearly, even though the experiences are still spontaneous, you will be ready for your first astral step.[4/4]

no help at all to people who can't visualize
>>42233788Here is an practice you can do to improve itI call this the apple method:First I want you to imagine an apple,then imagine colour if you haven't already,then imagine the details of the apple,then imagine water droplets on the apple,then imagine the sunlight reflecting on the apple and droplets of sunlight.then imagine the branch connecting to the apple.then imagine the leaf's of the branch if you haven't already.Then imagine the stem and the whole tree.then imagine when the tree is placed.then imagine how the wind effects the branchesthen try to imagine figures running around and playing around the treeThe imagine the details of the children.Then try and change preceptive , (i.e. rotating the tree) (you can tone down the details if needed) and zoom in and zoom out at the same time as rotatingThen try and do this all together.The idea is to slowly increases your perspective while still maintaining previous details. Keep doing this as practice.
>>42233794I spent 10 months trying to exercise muh visualization every single hour every day, even carried a digital timer with me, aphantasia can't be fixed
>>42233804I assume so, I'm sorry to hear that brotherLet me do some research I will see if i can try and find anything to help you
Bump
>>42233714i depise these kinds of deceptive guidance doxtrines that overcomplicates and glorifies some thing so simple an natural. at its core ,, astral projection require literaly donothing. infacts this kinds of “working toward” mindset only slows you down, your astral body belives it canot just slip out but has get on all 4s to suck dick an balls whichthen manifests to your relaity. Imagine being in astral, u are in astral, done. in the ends, the simplest methods is just knowing you can or disruptive sleep disorder, yes, all it take to ap is ur partner twisting ur niple in rem sleep erecting ur etheral form. not hard, not a 4 page esay, geton
>>42236164Anon is correct, making guides and etc for astral travel is silly, basic guides sure. but noting complicated as it acts as barrier making it harder or if not impossible. Here's the easiest way someone taught me to astral. 1. set alarm to wake your ass up in a few hours. step 2. go the fuck to sleep. 3. turn off alarm, lay still on your back. boom. that easy.
>>42233714"Astral projection". In other words, imagination found in majority of the population. If you have normal cognitive abilities you should be able to imagine yourself in a room of any shape, color, texture etc. and you should be able to feel, see, hear and otherwise sense things of high detail in the imagination (yes motion, pain and taste too). You should be able to pause and continue the vision and go back to places you have created in your mind at any point. If you don't have aphantasia or dementia you should at any point be able to access a realtime approximation of any space your brain has encoded into your memory and interact with things there. And no you don't need to close your eyes or meditate to achieve some elevated state, for most it is an integral part of your constant 24/7 running multimodal cognitive abilities.

>>42236219And do not get me started on some thing where you differentiate this with intrusive and/or subconsciously imagined spaces. Just because sometimes my mind's eye abprubtly teleports to some kind of vivid awake lucid dream with satanic looking personified things that talk to me as if they're not a part of my imagination doesn't mean I'm hecking astral projecting and have special powers.

>>42236164There is some contractive advice here but then you started spazzing out some now age bullshit so I will take everything you say with a grain of salt.this guide is a visitation practice meant to help people who have trouble the concentration and visitation.Matter of fact this is actually an traditional astral practice taught to students within TM clericals.And like I have already provided a much more simpler guide before hand https://archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/42223588/#42223588>>42236216https://archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/42223588/#42223588 already have

When someone manages to astral project, do they still get rest? As in, sleep?
>>42236361The will body will, but the mind wont.But both need rest at the end of the day
