DID YOU KNOW?

The Sinking of the Titanic (Excerpt from Astral Voyages by Dr. Bruce Goldberg)

"Morgan Robertson wrote a novel in 1898 titled Futility, in which a supposedly unsinkable ocean liner struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage and sank, carrying the elite society of two continents to their deaths.

Fourteen years later, in 1912, a similar "unsinkable" liner sailed from England with 3,000 passengers aboard. Like Robertson's craft, it was 800 feet long and weighed 70,000 tons but with far too few lifeboats. The real boat, like Robertson's, struck an iceberg and sank with the loss of more than a thousand lives. Robertson named his boat The Titan. The real ship was the Titanic.

This week, I want to talk about my latest book, Astral Voyages, by Dr. Bruce Goldberg. Just to get this part out of the way up front, I'm going to go ahead and say, "Yes, you need to buy this book if you're interested in astral travel." There, that part's done. Now we can get down to some cool stuff!

This book starts out answering a few questions that my husband and I were just debating last week. What is the difference between astral travel, remote viewing, and plain old clairvoyance? How do you know which one you're doing, and how do you know if you're doing it right? Well, Dr. Goldberg covers this information in an easy to understand way, once again explaining the different "bodies" that we have, the different astral planes, the silver cord, auras, chakras, and other basics.

Then, we break into new territory, which starts out exploring the astral entities. Now when I first started astral travel, there were a lot of myths floating around saying that you could get out of your body, be tooling around out there on another astral plane, and that you could come across these horrible, evil creatures who could do your spirit so much harm that you'd never get back to your body. This terrified me, and I'm sure it freaked a few other people out, too. Dr. Goldberg dispels these myths and explains the different types of entities you might come across while astral traveling and gives a couple of exercises to start with. I thought this was a good first step because fear can definitely interfere with your ability to get out there and explore.

In Chapter 6, Dr. Goldberg shares with us some tips to prepare for our astral travel. These are some of the things in the book that I think are quite valuable to learn. He covers diet, visualization, the environment, protection, a little more on chakras, balance, and some more exercises. He helps with relaxation, breathing, and focus, and then goes into hypnotic techniques.
