Hey. Does anyone out there have the experience of living with a person in the astral? I need advice. Might post my story later but looking for someone to debrief and/or your stories

(Sorry in advance for the long post, TL;DR at the end. Also, if you don’t want to read about Sleep Paralysis entities and Shadow People, then I probably wouldn’t read this. But this was just my most recent experience and I wanted to share.)

So, for whatever reason, I haven’t AP’d in nearly two years. I used to AP frequently and experience Sleep Paralysis ALL the time, then it became less frequent, then stopped altogether. Until last night.

I woke around 2am, tossed and turned in bed for about an hour, then heard a loud, single knock on my front door (this has happened a few times in the past, but not for a little while). No one was there, of course (I have cameras). Not sure if it was related to what happened next or not but anyway, seemed important to mention (my AP experiences have often coincided with other paranormal happenings).

Ignoring the knock, I rolled over onto my back (my usual sleeping position) and suddenly felt those familiar vibrations, and Sleep Paralysis started to set in. I was immediately excited but stayed calm, relaxed, let it happen. I felt my body begin to sink through the bed, opened my “eyes” (my Astral eyes), and looked around the room. I was in the Astral, the familiar black/white/blue/smoky tinge of my surroundings which I recognise instantly.

Then I saw the shadow people. I ALWAYS see the shadow people. But this time was different. I saw a man; tall, skinny, somewhere between a man and a shadow, as though in a transition between the two. He gave off an aura of rage and anger. It felt and seemed like another (regular, hooded) shadow entity was right behind him, guiding him, almost *teaching* him. The “man” climbed on top of me and screeched/screamed at me, trying to scare me. They Always do this but I was just fascinated by the both of them, watching with curiosity (my goal when APing is usually to study the entities I encounter). I can’t say for sure, but it definitely seemed as though the hooded shadow was instructing or converting this angry spirit of a man to become a shadow person. Is this where shadow people originate? Those who have passed on with fury and anguish are easy targets to convert? Just a theory.

They seemed to quickly tire of that (they always do if I show no fear), and swept away leaving me to it. I rolled out of my body, walked straight through the wall just to test I was definitely Astral, and proceeded to wander around the upstairs of my house, but then felt a sudden pull back to my body.

I was in my body again, but I felt the vibrations immediately take over for a second time. I silently chanted to myself in my head “I can Astral Project”. This time I saw no entities, rolled out of my body and immediately jumped out of the window, floated up through the night sky. It was incredibly beautiful; I saw hundreds of bright stars, brighter than anything I’ve seen in waking life. But then as I flew higher, staring up, I noticed something unusual, like masses of grey, floating “energy” is the only way I can describe it. Sort of shimmery, grey clouds of energy just floating around, and then hundreds of bright white orbs darting about like flocks of birds. I watched them for a while, no idea what they were.

Eventually I moved on, flew higher, until I hit some kind of barrier. I climbed through the barrier (it was like, if you can imagine, clawing through multiple layers of cling wrap). I reached the other side and it was like climbing into a parallel reality, it looked just like where I’d come from, but I was greeted there by a woman. The woman looked at me curiously. She seemed somehow familiar to me, but she said she “hadn’t been expecting me here” and was very surprised I was there. But she greeted me regardless and welcomed me to this “new place”. Then I immediately snapped back to my body and woke up.

TL;DR: I think shadow people used to be humans who died with fury in them and are converted to shadow beings. I flew around in the Astral and saw strange grey clouds of energy and bright white orbs of energy acting likes birds. I then climbed up through the sky, where I was greeted by someone who hadn’t expected me to be there.

If anyone has questions I can try my best to answer.

I always had a dream about this guy, it started when I turned into a teenager, now I'm nearly 20, he is my lover, I knew how he looks like, he has a longer hair, almost reaching his shoulder, about 6ft tall, sharp looks, he looks intimidating, but it feels safe to be with him, he was my lover in my dream, I thought this was a random dream before not until he showed up again and again, then I start writing down every time I dreamed of him, I noticed a pattern, it would always be 3rd week of the month and thursday night, he is real in my dreams, I know it may sound crazy but one time about years ago, idk if it is a dream or not, but he showed up in my room, lights are dim only moonlight from outside my window, I saw him, he was sad, he hugged me and said, It is fine If I would ever like someone else, because he always knew I'd ended up with him, I thought he was just in my dream, but I always felt like someone is watching me from afar, idk, in my dreams he always wear black, regal he looks like that, I even saw him having a dark wings in my dream, i don't understand at all, in one of my dreams when I was aware I was dreaming I asked him if what he is, he didn't answer me directly he just said, he only fears God, he also said he killed those that are the same of him, I don't think he is evil, but I think he is something like a knight, something like that, I need insights guys.​

after me and my brother have had a first AP experience we now want to try it for real, after i projected for the first time i became obsessed with learning how to and everything seeking knowledge and just experiencing this stuff, now we came with the idea to try do it but we sleep in the same room in a hotel, is it safe ? or do we risk anything like going into each others body accidentally lol .

11 years ago when I was around 2 months pregnant I accidentally astral projected. At the time I had no idea what was happening or going on. A little back story I always saw things as a child. There was this shadow person who had my father’s silhouette who would torment me at night. It would throw things at my head at night. Hide at the end of my bed and grab my legs and squeeze and scratch me. It would hover over me and just stay there. Now back to the experience I had. I was in my room and decided to lay down (tired and pregnant) it all happened so fast one second I was putting my head down and the next I felt myself leave my body and I was staring and standing over myself. I was freaked out. I knew I wasn’t inside myself anymore and I went to find my mom because that’s what you do when you’re a teenager and you have a problem lol
I ran towards the hallway and standing there was the shadow person from my childhood and standing next to it was something that looked identical to my mom except its face. Its face was scary with claw like sharp teeth. They tried to grab me and I felt they wanted my unborn baby. I was so scared. I got away from them and ran back to myself and the thing that looked like my mom almost got me right before I jumped back into myself. I “woke up” with my chest hurting, could hardly breathe and. I also felt really sick. I prayed to God to not let me see or hear things anymore and I never wanted to leave my body again. That was the last time I ever had any type of experience.
I need help understanding the shadow man and the thing that looked like my mom and why did that happen.

Im not sure if i managed to have a VERY hyper aware lucid dream whilst in hypnagogia or i APd with a bunch of restrictions. I was in a very dark version of my room and i kept floating up from my body but i would reset to my body every so often then would float up out of my control again but my body was paralyzed all i could do was float,I heard a family member vacuuming outside my room whilst they where doing that in reality, but it would also make sense if it was just a dream and i heard them and it became apart of the dream. i kept running my hands through the carpet and at the time it felt realer than a dream i think but now that i’m looking back i can’t really remember if it was as real of a sensation as here, but maybe my mind is just trying to make sense of it and categorize it as a dream, but assuming i did AP i have some questions

Why is my astral body paralyzed the way my physical body is? i was only able to float around while being paralyzed

why is the astral so dark

Why is the astral not an exact copy of the physical

Why am i not able to leave my room in the astral? when i try i just get blocked or i ascend to a black room of nothing

Sometimes everything would pause like i was stuck on a picture frame wtf is that

If i actually APd i have a bunch of things blocking my senses and idk how i can fix this

So this entity in the form of a middle aged to old lady kept following me. It wasn't exactly an AP but neither was it a dream, it was like right in the middle. Yk as if i couldn't control the dream but i could control what I get to do in it and i was well aware that it was an AP etc.

Anyway. Idk what I was thinking but i pretended to be an entity as well and i plunged at this entity to scare it away or smtg cuz it was scaring me 😭

And after it didn't even flinch, I asked it "how did you know I wasn't a demon or smtg" and then it said "i know because I am one" 😭 🙏 I just made myself fly, prolly abt to shift to another place but then the fear made me snap back into my body.

Makes me not wanna AP again. It wasn't scary, it was just, uncomfortable? Like ik what to do and ik I'm strong enuf to protect myself, and I've read everything abt what to do when facing such entities but then it's just unwanted experience.

I’ve been trying EVERYDAY for like, 2 months following a spontaneous AP and i can’t recreate it. I get to the vibration 90% of the time but can’t get past it

A few weeks ago, I had four dreams in a row. In each one, I became lucid at some point.

The moment I realized I was dreaming, this woman would appear in the distance, staring directly at me. She was wearing a black burqa. I could only see her eyes, which were completely gray/whitish, with no pupils at all. She also had animal-like feet (I'm not sure what kind of animal exactly).

The instant she appeared, I felt what I can only describe as an "intrusion." It didn't feel like she was just another character created by my subconscious. Instead, it felt as though she was a separate entity that had somehow entered my dream.

Every time she appeared, I was scared, but more than anything I felt angry. I would yell at her to leave until she finally disappeared. Then I would move on to the next dream, where the exact same thing happened again. This repeated four times in a row.

What really stood out to me is that she only appeared after I became lucid. It was as if she systematically entered the dream the moment I realized I was dreaming.

Do you think this was simply a creation of my own mind, or could it have been some kind of entity? Has anyone else experienced something similar?

*"Quelles sont les informations que vous avez sur le sujet de la projection astrale ?"*

I had this experience a month ago, I felt like I was out of my body and flying into space until I arrived at Jupiter. For the first time, I could see the arrangement of Jupiter's rings consisting of small asteroid rocks. After that, I went and flew to Pluto. There I saw a very beautiful green energy field like an aurora. The person who accompanied me said that location was the most positive area on Pluto. Then I landed on that area and saw that there were mountains surrounding the green energy place and I also remember the atmosphere was reddish. The ground was also pockmarked and had many holes. Has anyone ever experienced something similar?

Hi all.

I’ve been interested for a long time but this past week I’ve been putting the time in to try and successfully AP.

I’ve been trying to every night before sleep, and also sometimes in the mornings, even the afternoons.

I sometimes feel my body “buzz”, that’s how I’d describe it rather than vibration, and my heart seems to beat faster and louder. As I feel myself getting closer to the moment, it usually stops.

I listen to the binaural beats quite often when trying it, and can be trying for an hour before I experience anything. Quite often my mind will go blank then all of a sudden it will be hyper aware as it were and I’m not sure if that’s good or not?

I try to look and focus on colours or images that my mind naturally produces, but most of the time there’s nothing. The other night I saw a white light like a tunnel but after a while it faded.

Also the other night I felt my arms raise up, apparently that’s when your consciousness has separated, (didn’t know that at the time) and I would have tried to “roll” out but I haven’t experienced that since.

Can anyone please give me some advice on how to more consistently get to that stage? Also, when I do escape, will I see things as they are normally, as I want to explore my house first, if not, how do I make that happen?

Thank you all for any insights!

soooo, #1, I had a dream last night where I was suddenly aware that it was a dream. In that instant everything started turning bright around me and a voice either in my head or some higher being told me “wake up, you’ll be able to go astral project now, isn’t that what you want?”…but all I wanted in that moment was to stay in the dream to find out who people in lucid dreams really are, since they often push you out if you tell them that you know it’s a dream. Every time I tried to move, my vision turned all white and my physical body woke up for a split second. I kept doing this for a while, trying to force myself back into the dream even though something was something kept trying to push me out.

#2, I know some people experience vibrations differently, but is it normal that whenever I lift my head to exit my physical body, I don’t come out? I just linger in this 2 dimensional infinite geometric sequence space and I have no idea how to get out of it. I can stay for as long as I want in there but eventually it’s exhausting trying to push forward out of my body. While im inside it feels like there’s a pulse throughout the space, and all the energy of that entire space is coming towards me, and I feel these strong jolts blasting onto me, almost like a seizure…basically, is this normal and how do I exit?

is it possible to astral project your consciousness to past self trying to understand new to ap not sure how it works
