Hello everyone , this is my second post in this style . so today i will be talking about Ethereal walking , do not mistake Ethereal walking for Astral projection , i will be explaining the difference between EW and AP , the best way for you to learn how to do it and repercussions.
So as of last time in my topic i've been using categories , this one will feature them too:
1.What is Ethereal Walking?
2.What are the differences between EW and AP?
3.How does one learn EW?
4.What are the repercussions and dangers of EW?
1.What is Ethereal Walking?
Ethereal walking is an OBE (of out body experience) that takes place within the Ethereal plane of existence , which is parallel to the corporeal (material realm) , depending on the belief of a specific person the Ethereal plane has the definition of being the realm where all energy resides that we are constantly connected to , while others that specific beings use it to influence us from a higher plane (such as gods).During EW the Ethereal Visage is split from the body and is freely allowed to move between Ethereal space , the Ethereal space will look exactly like normal the corporeal realm , meaning the world is unchanged , but you will not be able to stray to anyplace you have not been atleast once in your life.If your mind lets you teleport about or weird things happen , chances are you fell asleep rather than entered an Ethereal walk , in that case sweet dreams. Some people see the ethereal plane as a silent , smelless copy of the corporeal one ,where time seems slowed down , while others (like myself) see it as a copy of the corporeal but everything is gray in hue and silent. Sometimes you may meet someone else who is Ethereally walking but chances are slim.
2.What are the differences between EW and AP?
Im going to split it into two columns for easier reading and comparison.
Ethereal Walking , Astral Projection
Plane of existence: Ethereal , Astral
Position of the plane: Parallel with the corporeal one , Higher plane of existence
Difficulty: Very difficult , A little easier
Purpose: Recreational , no specific purpose , Searching , Divining , ect.
Experience: Realistic environment , Often unusual such as a tunnel of
light for some
Those are the main differences between the two there are many small ones aswell.
3.How does one learn EW?
Learning Ethereal walking is quite difficult , because it takes a lot of trial and error to find ones exist point , which is different for almost everyone. The exit point is the point on the body where the ethereal visage can exit fully , rather then just split partialy and then pulled back in. To find ones exit point you must meditate , during meditation envision a blob in your mind , then change the shape into a likeness of yourself , feel it underneath your skin , as it moves and shimmers between every cell in your body then start focusing from one point to the next , wether starting at your feet or on your hands or head anything will do , target a point on your body with your mind and try to pull that blob of energy in your likeness out , if it goes out only partialy or does not go out at all , move to another spot , until you find the exit point. Once you find the exit point meditate to create a good Ethereal Visage , the same way while you were searching for the exit point , only this time once you feel it coursing through every cell in you body all at once direct it at your exit point.If you are successful after a brief moment of invigoration you should be able to see your body left behind by moving the ethereal visage just like you normaly would walk in your body. There is no other specific guidelines I can give then this manner of discovering your exit point. But those with the determination and will to do so will manage to pull it off.
4.What are the repercussions and dangers of EW?
The main repercussion of EW is fatigue , almost every Ethereal walk will leave you very tired , to treat this either reduce the amount of time you spent walking or get some sleep before doing it.
There is one very rare and quite vaguely understood danger to EW , it is called Ethereal Shifting , at first glance it might seem as an accidental Astral projection , but it is not , most believe that once your first few times of walking your ethereal visage will gain a more permanent place in your mind and become more attuned to the Ethereal plane , causing oneself to shift between the two by having their ethereal visage uncontrollably partialy exit the body for a few moments and return back in , giving short lasting sight into the ethereal realm and nausea most of the time.
Well Were done! I hope you like the post , as always comments are a welcome sight , any questions aswell (other than asking me to directly teach you the easiest way to do it , you got to do some of the work yourself hehe).
