Astral Projection vs. Astral Reiki: What’s the Difference?
🌌 What Is Astral Projection?
Astral projection is the act of shifting your awareness out of your physical body and into your astral body. It’s not just visualization. It’s an actual relocation of consciousness to a higher-frequency layer of self.
From the astral body, you can:
- Travel beyond space and time
- Observe energetic structures and non-physical beings
- Perceive interference, blocks, or trauma signatures that are invisible to the physical senses
For most people, astral projection happens spontaneously or during meditation, dreams, or altered states. It’s usually passive; a witnessing experience.
🧠 But Here’s What Most People Miss
Astral projection isn’t a shared map. It’s a filtered experience.
What you perceive in the astral is shaped by the structure of your system: your beliefs, trauma patterns, energetic clarity, and emotional state.
Two people can enter what they believe is the same field and encounter completely different landscapes. One sees light. The other sees distortion. Both experiences are valid, but neither is the full picture.
This isn’t a flaw in the modality. It’s a reality of perception.
Unless you’ve trained your astral awareness to recognize what you’re filtering or distorting, it’s easy to misread what you’re experiencing—or miss key information altogether.
✨ So What Is Astral Reiki?
Astral Reiki is what happens when you combine trained energy work with conscious astral projection.
In my practice, I leave my physical body and enter the astral realm with full awareness. From that place, I work on the client’s system; not just the astral body, but the chakras, organs, energy field, and physical structures.
This includes:
- Clearing energetic interference or parasitic attachments
- Retuning systems to their correct frequency
- Replenishing light where it’s been depleted
- Rebuilding damaged or degraded structures (including things like cartilage and fascia patterns)
This isn’t symbolic. It isn’t passive. It’s precise, structural, and intervention-based.
🧭 Why This Matters
Most Reiki flows through the hands. Most astral projection is observational.
Astral Reiki merges the two.
You get the expanded perception of the astral body with the discernment and training of an advanced energy practitioner.
This modality isn’t designed for surface-level relaxation. It’s for when something deeper has opened; when the system can’t fully integrate what’s been revealed, and help is needed to stabilize that transformation without overriding it.
🌀 Want to Go Deeper?
I developed Astral Reiki to help spiritually advanced clients stabilize deep transformation without relying on guesswork or generalizations. It’s precise work, rooted in structure and guided by trained perception, not assumption.
If you’re in a stage where you’ve done the work but your system still feels scrambled, this might be the next step.
