An Introduction To The Visual Body

Visual Body / Astral Body

Introduction

The visual body is another name for the astral body. The astral body is located at the fourth layer of the auric field and links us to the astral plain. When we sleep at night and experience dreams of flying and visiting distance place this is know as astral projection.

Within the wingmakers site and in the equinox books I use the term visual body a lot on the techniques. The reason why I use visual body is because a lot people have trouble with astral projection. So it is much easier to see one self in visual form.

Astral Projection – Bi-Location

Astral Projection is the ability of projecting the astral body also known as the fourth layer of the auric field out into the astral plain. When we astral project we experience sensations of flying and dreaming and visions of distant places this is known as astral projection. The astral plain is the plain of existence between both the three lower plains of the physical realm and the higher plains of the spiritual realms of our existence.

The first higher non-physical plane, one frequently hears about this in paranormal accounts. In the out-of-body and near death experience one is conscious on this plane. Right after one dies and before they reincarnate they are on this plane, and the first Guardian Angels are found here as well.

This is also called the emotional plane because the “matter” on this plane is what composes a feeling, desire, or emotion. Negative emotions and the realms of hell like “purgatory” exist on the lower sub planes, while positive on the upper. It is impossible for what we think of as “evil” to exist anywhere except from the mid astral on down, by definition. Astral (and higher) objects and bodies can not only go through physical matter in the same space without adversely affecting either side, but they can go through each other without much trouble, avoiding the collision aspect that happens with physical matter, although one can still interact much like on the physical.

In this section we are going to study astral projection through a couple of simple visual techniques prepare for this first technique you will need to lay down and get comfortable and relax.

Visual Technique

Step One

Now I want you to focus on the breath and follow the raise and fall of the chest while you breathe in and out do this till the mind is silent and you are at a point of deep relaxation.

Step Two

Now I what you to visualize your physical body and see your head elongating so that you are taller by three inches and hold it there.

Step Three

Then bring your attention down to your feet and elongate your body by three inches and hold it there for a moment and relax and feel at one with all things living and breath.

Step four

Now I want you to visualize that your legs are dropping down into the earth and relax and in your own time drop your arms down into the earth. Feel at one with the earth and go deeper and breath.

Step Five

Then bring your attention to your arms and legs and raise your arms and legs so that they are parallel with your body and as you do so see this elongated image of your body rising up above you about six inches and hold it there for a moment. You may feel a pulling sensation near the second chakra as you do this don’t worry if you do this is natural with astral project as there is a cord of energy between both the physical body and your astral body.

Step Six

Then in your own time drop this elongated body back into your body and return your head and feet to their natural position and make sure that are back to normal before you open your eyes.

Astral Projection

Bi location

In the image Above I have caught what is call the visual body or Astral Body on flim this is also known as Bi-Location.

The practice of stepping out can be done either in meditation or at any time. Stepping out is a visualization technique in which you can see yourself reversed inside your body, looking backwards. Imagine your etheric self turning around and looking at a point behind you. If it helps visualize that your visual body and see it turning around within your physical body.

You can really help this technique along if from time to time you just imagine what is behind you. It is like looking backwards with your mind not your eyes sight. It helps to open your reality to the feeling that your reality is not simply just in front of you but all around you.

Then in your own time imagine that your visual body is walking out and standing behind you.

Now with your right hand on your visual body reach out and touch a point behind you and notice the sensations with your body as you do this.

When you are ready turn your visual body around and walk your visual body back into your physical body and open your eyes

Practice this technique regularly and in no time you’ll be a natural at stepping out.

Astral Beings and Wildlife

The astral dimension contains a wide variety of what could be called non-physical subtle energy life-forms; or as Carlos Castenada so aptly calls them: inorganic beings. Some of these have a positive nature (nice) and some seem have a negative nature (not so nice). The intelligence level of each type varies enormously. The vast majority of each type appear to have their own agendas, like to keep to themselves, and in general do not like being bothered or interfered with. Not counting high-level beings like demigods, angels and spirit masters, they range from friendly and helpful, to occasionally helpful, to playful, to neutral, to mischievous, to malicious, to downright nasty and evil.

Inorganic beings appear in a wide variety of illusory forms. Some of the less intelligent types seem animalistic and predatory by nature, much like the animal and insect wildlife found in the physical dimension. I call the less intelligent, animalistic and negative types simply, Astral Wildlife. Although these all appear to come from somewhere in or near the astral dimension, many of these are capable of operating in the real time zone. And some of these, unfortunately, delight in tormenting projectors, especially new ones.

You can find absolutely anything in the astral planes, given the fluid nature of its many internal environments. In a way, the astral can be likened to the ocean: there are fish, shellfish, octopus, dolphins, whales, sharks, barracuda, sea snakes, crabs, shrimp, jellyfish, turtles, seals and penguins, etc, etc. Some of the ocean wildlife is friendly, some is harmless, some are only harmful when disturbed, annoyed or hungry, some can be unintentionally harmful, and others are downright dangerous all the time. There are also many travelers, some even from far off lands, found sailing, flying or swimming thereabouts.

Although many parts of the astral planes appear to be full of life, it is fairly rare to meet up with interested beings whilst traveling there, but it does happen occasionally. Just about every astral plane and realm has some kind of local inhabitants. These life forms often live in specific areas or realms, and often seem quite unaware there is any other reality or dimensional level than their own. They are often amazed when they meet an astral traveler. Other types you’ll meet seem to be well aware of other dimensions, but most seem to have little patience with projectors and tend to ignore them.

In a way, approaching astral beings you do not know is very much like approaching strangers in the physical dimension. Most strangers ignore other people, even when politely asked directions or questions. Strangers will, at best, give cursory answers as they hurry away while actively trying to ignore you. Astral beings, like most strangers, don’t seem to enjoy getting involved with the affairs of strangers, usually having much more important things to do with their time.

While projecting, you’ll also occasionally meet up with other projectors like yourself, but most of these will not even be aware they are projecting. It seems that the awareness and memories projectors have of their physical existence, of who and what they are, varies greatly. Many seem as if they are sleepwalking or dreaming, or are just going along with the flow of life and events in an astral realm, as if they were a part of it and actually lived there. They are often quite surprised when it is pointed out to them that they can fly, etc.

I suspect this variability in awareness and memory is caused by many factors, such as: energetic development and activity, the amount of energy flowing into the projected double from its physical/etheric body, and whether or not a projector has made a conscious exit or not and has retained awareness afterwards. The conscious exit out-of-body seems to cause a much greater flow of energy into the projected double than is usually available to sleep projectors. It is also possible that the unbroken continuance of awareness provided by a conscious exit projection removes much of the dreamlike qualities associated with existing in other dimensions.

The most important thing to realize about any beings, intelligent or otherwise, you might come across in the astral is that they are not all dream beings or creations of your own subconscious mind. They usually have their own life, meaning and purpose; whatever that might be. They are, in most cases, not mere decorations to be toyed with or used by any passing astral traveler. Most astral beings do not seem to appreciate being questioned and annoyed, by what may seem like to them to be a constant stream of lost and meddlesome astral travelers.

For all the above, some astral beings will converse with and even actively help and encourage astral travelers, especially if projectors are courteous and sincere in their approach. Like attracts like in the astral planes and, if you are friendly and sincere, you are thus far more likely to meet beings who are also friendly and sincere.
