The Astral Projection Workbook: How to Achieve Out-Of-Body Experiences

Brennan's book on out-of-body experiences is without a doubt one of the best books you can buy on the subject, if your intent is to actually practice and achieve the experience. Although he does discuss the experiences of others, particularly Sylvan Muldoon and Robert Monroe, the accent throughout is for the reader to develop his own ability to project and control his projection. Brennan clearly differentiates between etheric projection and astral projection, how they are similar and how they differ, and treats them separately. The common or likely feelings one will have, or experiences one may have, are different; Brennan tries to deal with normal fear, expectations, safety, and what is possible on the various planes. In terms of inducing projection, there are various exercises for relaxation and meditation, as well as coverage on various tricks some have tried or that have worked in a variety of cases. For the astral plane, Brennan moves closer to various astral doorways, typically meditational devices or mandalas, including I Ching hexagrams, Tarot, the Kabbalistic Tree of Life & Sephiroth (rising on the planes as done by Dion Fortune and others), tattwas, etc. Each has its potentialities; Brennan's discussion is not meant to be a complete analysis of each. In short, Brennan's book is not so much a general discussion as it is a series of ideas and exercises in the loosening of the astral body and the presentation of many ideas on how to bring about an enjoyable, safe, and spiritually enlightening experience. It is clear, accessible, and rich in information, ideas and inspiration. Highly recommended for the students of this topic.

I first bought this book in 1996 and I was simply amazed. I tried everything in the book and experienced another world! Since then, I've lost the book once and gave it to a friend twice, but I always manage to find it and buy it again for another read. As a matter of fact, that's why I'm writing this today! Buy it, enjoy it and experience something amazing yourself!

For anyone seriously interested in the Occult and Magick for it's spiritual value, this book is the greatest introduction to Astral Projection, presenting not only Etheric Projection techniques, but also the Golden Dawn's own Astral Projection techniques. If you're not serious about Occultism or are just some New Age punk, you should seriously consider "Llewellyn's Practical Guide to Astral Projection" instead of this serious, intellectual and spiritual work.

The book is very "user-friendly". Brennan has many suggestions on the steps to take when attempting to project the astral body. He doesn't just cover one technique...he explores numerous "tricks" and meditation/relaxation techniques that I found very helpful. He also covers many other related topics such as lucid dreaming. Brennan does a fine job of explaining what astral/etheric projection is, along with some interesting facts and history. I greatly enjoyed the book and would recommend it to projection beginners like myself!!

This tells the steps of how to mediatae special ways and from thier it leads into dreaming and to astral projecting or OBE's.
