Thinking while Astral Projecting

[Zyther]

Hey guys, I was just wondering if I successfully able to astral project, would I have full control of my thoughts? Also, what would happen if I accidently thought about my body and didn't want to go back to it yet?

Thank you for any replies :)

I can only answer from my own experiences which aren't fantastic as I'm no Master of the Fourth Dimension...
But yes you can control your thoughts. When you first go out do a "reality-check" first thing you do. Simple stuff. Ask yourself what's your name, what date is it, where are you, approximately what time is it. Doing those simple things helps to focus your consciousness, take away any silly stuff, for starters. It kind of "grounds you" on the Astral in a manner of speaking. That's just to begin with. Other things later on might happen to scramble your thinking....I don't know. But if you keep a sense of plain lucid sanity and a simple focus it should work.

Thinking about your physical body....that's different. 9 times out of 10 you'll come back to it. However, once I did see my body all tucked up in bed -I only recognized myself by my hair- and that awareness didn't make me go back to my body. Any thoughts about sex is another thing that can make you go back to body fast especially at first.

First off if you think about your body it is very likely you will end up there. Now the whole controlling your thoughts thing is sort of a catch-22. I have found if you are thinking too much during vibrational stage you will not be able to leave your body. I believe this is because the thoughts traveling in your brain run through as electrical current which there creates a magnetic pull on your head and you will be able to free everything but your head. Has happened to me on many occasions, I typically cannot leave my body unless my mind is clear and free of thought.

Your thinking does not change from what it normally is when you are awake.

As movement follows thought when you are out of body, thinking about your body will likely pull you back to it. Without experience, you will likely be pulled back into your body when you arrive.
