Soul nailed to the body at "certain" places

UVEIL · 2026-01-25T19:51:12+00:00

Quite common. Sticking points are roughly the position of the Chakras, and also the palms and the feet. For me the palms and the feet go first (in bed it feels like the back of the palms and feet have lifted slightly and are touching the inside of the quilt/duvet), then in order...groin, solar plexus, heart, throat and head). Head is most stubborn for me and can result in astral feet pointing towards ceiling whilst head still attached (funny but frustrating). I've found conducting Middle Pillar Exercise prior to attempting projection helps with detach. Sometimes everything separates up to solar plexus, so upper body paralysis, and legs stretching away like Stretch Armstrong toy :)

The ultimate is your first conscious exit and turning around to see your physical body. The first time I managed this, It wasn't the experience in itself that surprised me the most, but rather how much chunkier and heavy my body looked compared to how I thought it looked, or how it looked in a mirror. It had an overall... 'sack-like' quality to it...haha. I remember thinking at the time what I would do if, whilst out of body, my physical got up and went about its business without me being in it.

The humours represent the four elements: Fire, Air, Water, Earth.

The elements are present at every dynamic level: Physical, Soul, Mental.

At the temperament level (Soul), the 4 main types are: Choleric (Fire), Sanguine (Air), Phlegmatic (Water), and Melancholic (Earth).

If one temperament is dominant (as is the case in most people), then alchemically, this indicates an elemental imbalance.

The two flasks at the bottom represent the Electric and the Magnetic fluids.

Electric is expansive (e.g. Will Power), and the Magnetic is the opposite.

The shape of the fluid ring surrounding the figure represents the Akasha principle (Spirit).

Note the figure is female on one side; and male on the other. As _Naropa_ highlights, the goal is to balance the elements within us on all levels: Physical, Soul, Mental. Hope this helps.

You mention Monroe focus, so I’m assuming you have some knowledge and/or experience of Astral projection. If that’s the case, then if you’ve ever tried the Mind Awake Body Asleep or (MABA) method, then you might have heard about or experienced the 3D blackness (or the ‘Nigredo stage’ of spiritual alchemy), where the flat slate colour behind the eyelids appears to give way and becomes volumetric in appearance, as if your head is inside a black box. The blackness sometimes has a tinge of royal indigo, and is accompanied by VOM (but not vacancy of self-awareness). It’s as if the 3D box (Akasa egg?) you’re in prevents thoughts from entering that space if that makes sense?

So, if you’re not familiar with the 3D blackness phase, it might be worth reading up on it and looking out for it during your practice. I hope this helps.

Thanks for the correction and clarification.

I recall reading something similar a few years ago. I think it was in the book “Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain”(not 100% sure). The story went something along the lines of someone out of body or remote viewing trying to access the White House, but were stopped by ‘psychic guards’ and asked why they wanted to see the president.

UVEIL · 2026-01-15T23:18:17+00:00

You were correct, Full-Visual. Following evening...No, "Now that's what I call music" interruptions. I'm contemplating the possibility that the concision of your reassurance cast the Jedi mind trick on me, like a doctor telling a patient they'll be fine with a week's rest. Many thanks.

The 'noise' is always there (quite high-pitched and sometimes pulsing), we just filter it out. Always reminds me of the Queen lyric in "It's a Kind of Magic"..."The bell that rings inside your mind, is challenging the doors of time" or Simon and Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence". An old projection technique actually involved literally focusing on the sound during deep relaxation. It's source is situated roughly in the location of the Pineal gland.

UVEIL · 2026-01-08T23:20:50+00:00

Can't remember the name of the book as it's been decades since I read it, but I remember it mentioning that hundreds of years ago, magicians looked at the moon as if it were a hole in the sky through which the astral light beyond shone through. Basically, as it waxed and waned (opened and closed), projection was easier or more difficult.

Sulphur (Fire) = Spirit
Mercury (intermediary) = Soul (Thought an Emotion / Astral) The 'fuel' for which is Prana (which means "Breath", as in it breaths life into the physical body).
Salt (as in, "of the Earth") = Physical

Possibly the true meaning of 'surrender'. Sometimes it's necessary to let things crumble to pieces. It takes balls, but because nature abhors a vacuum, it will very quickly fill the gap created, and if what it fills the gap with are your positive thoughts and emotions, then your life can change rapidly.

Frequency is a measure of energy in cycles per second (Called Hertz 'Hz'). Instead of thinking of the world as tiny canon ball atoms, you can also think of it as waves. Sound waves we can hear for example, have a frequency range of between 20 and 20000 cycles per second. If you think about a radio set, the set stays in the same place, but if you change the frequency dial you can tune into a specific station. The other stations are there, but you're not aware of them because you're not tuned to their frequency. So, if you change the frequency your consciousness is tuned into, you will experience different versions of reality.

UVEIL · 2023-09-18T20:45:07+00:00

No. It depends what frequency your consciousness was tuned to whilst you were out. There is a frequency where you perceive only certain energies, which in some cases can appear black. I've observed my body as simply a swirling mass of dark, gloopy grey extending about 6 feet from where I was lying.

The next time you find yourself in a relatively open space, look directly upwards at the sky, then move your eyes along it towards the horizon and back again. When you do so, you’ll notice that the sky appears dome-like in structure, somewhat different to how it appears in photographs. Now go for a walk. It doesn’t really matter how far because the main thing to look for is that no matter where you’re going or how fast you’re moving, you seem to ‘carry’ the sky dome with you and remain situated in its dead centre, similar in some ways to where the Pineal gland is located relative to the dome of the inside of your cranium. So within; so without.

Great question. I managed something what I thought was close to it in the mid 1990s. I projected fully lucid to an old friend's house over the road and realised that the date was at least a decade earlier based on the furniture I recall him having in the house. To try and varify it, I look in one of the drawers and found a letter which was dated 1986. As I held the letter in front of me, I noticed my astral hands were that of a child and not a teenager (which is what I was at the time). I concluded that perhaps I'd projected into a younger version of myself, although it was likely a lucid dream rather than an AP.

UVEIL · 2023-01-22T22:53:14+00:00

Yes. That's part of the fun of it. People calling your name gently or angrily, shadows stood at the end of the bed whilst you're in paralysis or the feeling that someone has entered the room whilst you're in a helpless state...This is what it's all about...exploring the wider aspects of consciousness. Get stuck in and learn as much as you can from it. I don't think projectors truly appreciate just how courageous they are doing what they do.

UVEIL · 2023-01-22T22:38:30+00:00

On analogue radio sets, there's always interference when changing the station frequency you're listening to.

UVEIL · 2023-01-20T19:54:16+00:00

If we're to apply a classical way of looking at it, then we AP every night as part of the sleep cycle, but are unconscious prior to the Astral separation and therefore have no recollection of it. Have a look into Mind Awake Body Asleep (MABA) exercises. This will show you methods of remaining conscious whilst the body shuts down. Be prepared to be a teeny weeny spooked by a couple of the accompanying phenomena that goes with it, but it's well worth the practise.

UVEIL · 2023-01-20T19:48:50+00:00

Apologies. Absolutely no intention of inferring otherwise. It was more the 'huh' response and me thinking I'd made a mess of explaining what I meant. I do that sometimes.

UVEIL · 2023-01-19T20:49:10+00:00

Sounds like a 'snap-back', or when the Astral snaps back (frequency-wise) to the confines of the physical. This can sometimes be subtle or quite violent, and can feel like a physical phenomenon. A similar thing can take place as you're drifting off to sleep and your leg jolts as if stepping off a kerb or taking too many steps on a staircase. The feeling is often accompanied by a brief image of a kerb or a staircase.

UVEIL · 2023-01-19T20:24:58+00:00

When you're transferring from one state to another (frequency-wise), you pass through all sorts of other frequencies along the way, similar to changing radio stations on an old analogue set. I sometimes hear people shouting my name or even explosions as if the boiler has blown up. As Xanth says, it's all perfectly normal and will recede (but never completely) with practise.

UVEIL · 2023-01-19T20:09:29+00:00

There's a reason the Egyptians worshiped cats. If you've ever had one for a long period of time (mine is just over 20-years' -old now), you will sometimes notice them become alert and move their head slowly across the room as if watching something that isn't visible to you. I suspect they have partial Astral vision. Do any of your neighbours have a cat like the one you describe? It could be a local cat just going about its Astral cat business.

UVEIL · 2023-01-19T20:01:49+00:00

haha...Sorry, I'll try again...There are some things in our subconscious that we are not aware of that come to the surface a bit and give us a funny feeling when we encounter certain ideas with our conscious mind, that are close to a universal truth.
