My Experiences with Astral Projection and Alternate
Realities Part 2
Astral
projection (Soul Travel): an interpretation of an out-of-body experience that
assumes the existence of an "astral body" separate from
the physical body and capable of travelling outside it. Astral
projection or travel denotes the astral body leaving the
physical body to travel in an astral plane.
Parallel Universe (Alternate Reality): A universe, especially one of an infinite set of identical universes, believed
to exist along with our own universe, possibly obeying
different physical laws and having the potential for the transfer of
information between universes.
Walking Between Worlds
Imagine for a moment that you can go to
sleep in one reality and wake up in another.
What would you see? What might be
different?
Imagine if you will that your best
friend in one world is your spouse in another.
Can you see it in your mind? Can
you imagine the infinite possibilities of lives our parallel selves may be
experiencing in these other worlds?
Would you even recognize yourself or them?
These questions have interested the SciFi
Community for years. Movies and
television have depicted these types of experiences to the awe of movie goers
for decades. But what if this type of
experience is not just something found in your favorite SciFi novel? What would you do?
In recent years as I have explored the
phenomena of astral projection and soul travel I have found doors that I never
truly believed existed or at the very least thought only existed in Hollywood
Movies. I have experienced things, realities
or existence, that I never thought possible.
I never really was much of a science fiction buff growing up. While my brother for example loved shows like
Star Trek, I thought that stuff like that was just an impossible fantasy
realized on a tiny black and white screen. Never in a million years could I
have ever imagined that things I have seen and experienced in the last few
years as I have traveled on this journey we call life.
One very vivid experience I found myself
transported through a large glowing archway into a place of beauty and at the
time what seemed to me an oddity of sorts.
I found myself in a large throne room
with a large ornate domed roof that seemed to be filled with glittering stars.
Seated in a large throne on one side of
the room I began to examine my surrounding.
On the opposite side of the room from where I found myself seated I counted,
all lined up against an ornately decorated wall, sixteen thrones with strange
looking occupants who appeared to be sleeping.
As I examined further with my glance I turned to my right and next to me
I counted fifteen more ornately decorated thrones in which still other strange
beings were seated also with the appearance of being at rest.
As I examined the being seated at my
right I suddenly felt as though I knew this being somehow, though in this
reality I haven’t the foggiest idea who he was as his appearance along with the
others was quite alien to me yet human features were also present.
I them glanced toward the end of this
great hall and saw one beautiful and much larger throne sitting empty. “Who was its occupant”, I wondered. Strange that all these other seats were
filled yet this one remained empty. I
pondered for a moment where I must be yet to no avail though something seemed
very familiar to me. It was then that I
glanced to my left and finally saw my face in a large mirror on wall next to
me. It was then that I noticed something
very strange…I was one of these beings.
“How could this be?” I thought. And yet part of my being recognized the face
I was seeing in the mirror. I was quite
obviously female in appearance but with a very long slender face that looked like
something from a Science Fiction movie.
I glanced down at my hands and they were not mine. Long slender fingers with nails that looked
nearly like claws and painted red.
Around my neck I saw a golden torc beautifully decorated. My clothing consisted of a shining iridescent
fabric that seemed to flow as if it was only made of energy. It shimmered like the stars. It was indescribably beautiful.
As I sat and pondered a while I thought
of how foreign this whole scene was and yet how familiar it felt as if I had
been there before. My thoughts began to
twist and turn until I remembered a story I had been told about a being named
Thoth the Atlantean and his fabled “Halls of Amenti” in which reside the
original bodies of the ancients seated in thrones sleeping while their souls
traveled into the physical realm and flowed through human forms.
Suddenly at that exact moment I slammed
back into my body and awoke. Years prior
I had printed off a copy of what has been referred to as “The Emerald Tablets
of Thoth”. My first instinct was to pull
it out and read. 33 was the number
written in the text. Thrones in which
were seated the 33 original Atlanteans who first appeared on earth. I began to add the numbers I counted in this
great hall, “16 + 16 + 1”. “33”.
Did it prove that I had just visited the
fabled Halls of Amenti that I had read about years before? Did I wake up in another reality, in a body
that had once belonged to me and was temporarily awakened to reveal something
of my past lives?
Though I can’t say for certain I can’t
help but think that this was the reason for what I had experienced that day in
this “Great Hall”. Still this is only
one of many strange experiences I have had through astral projection and soul
travel. In part 3, I will tackle one the
most recent and seemingly strange experiences I have had. I will say this, to those who doubt the
existence of parallel worlds, you may just want to rethink that belief. I for one am truly convinced that other
worlds do exist parallel to our own and that these worlds do occasionally act
through our own whether we want them to or not.
Stay tuned for Part 3!
