Astral projection is a term that refers to the phenomenon of experiencing consciousness outside of one’s physical body. It is also known as out-of-body experience (OBE) or soul travel. Some people claim to have astral projected voluntarily or involuntarily, while others regard it as a form of lucid dreaming or hallucination. There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of astral projection, and the mechanisms and implications of such an experience are highly controversial.
