Astral projection is when your spirit or soul leaves your body and travels to other places. It is like dreaming, but you are actually awake. People believe that astral projection can help them explore different places in the spirit world or explore the universe. When astral projection happens, the spirit or soul leaves the body and can travel through walls or even through time. You still have control over where you go and what you do while you are astral projecting. Some people believe that when you do astral projection, you can even speak to spirits or other people in the spirit world.
