Amazon.com Review

Everything you always wanted to know about astral travel is explored in Astral Voyages by ex-dentist and hypnotist Bruce Goldberg. Discussing the four types of out-of-body experiences, he answers such wide-ranging questions as, "Why do some people leave their physical body while simply talking or walking? How do you meet kindred souls on the astral plane? What is lucid dreaming? What other dimensions are out there? What is your karmic purpose?" This clearly written, no-fluff book is full of helpful checklists, definitions, scientific explanations, detailed descriptions of various states (for example, how to know when you're dead), contemplation exercises, visualization techniques, how-to instructions, and, excuse the phrase, much, much more. If you're an aspiring astral traveler, don't leave home without it. --Randall Cohan

Product Description

Imagine, for a second, traveling at the speed of light to a place where all past, present, and future events occur simultaneously. You can be anywhere at any time and be free of the laws of space and time. That might sound impossible, but it's not. It happens whenever you project your soul onto the astral plane.

If you have not yet been able to astral project, or if you would like to improve your skills, you must get Astral Voyages by Dr. Bruce Goldberg. This book answers all of your questions about astral projection and gives over sixty-five exercises that are sure to help you experience the freedom of astral travel.

In order to astral project, you need to understand the relationship of the soul to your physical, astral, mental, and other bodies. This will entail learning about the aura, the chakras, and more. You also need to be sure that the experience is safe. What happens to your physical body when you project? Will you meet other entities on the astral plane? Can they harm you? All of your questions will be answered in such a way that you will be craving an astral projection experience.

You will learn many techniques to help you astral project. You'll learn basic techniques and advanced ones, all designed to get you out of your body and astral traveling.

This brings up more questions: What can you do on the astral plane? How can you tell the difference between the various non-physical planes? What are the akashic records and how can you read them while on the astral plane? Again, all your questions are answered in Astral Voyages.

You'll also learn how all of your work will help you develop your innate psychic powers. You'll discover the secret doorways to the astral plane and how you can heal others, meet people and Spirit Guides and even have astral sex.

If you are ready to discover the secrets of the astral plane, this book is a must.

2.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but..., February 16, 2000

By	MARSHA E SCHLITZ (location is a matter of opinion) - See all my reviews

Some interesting thoughts, but not at all like real astral travel, and don't get this if you expect to learn astral travel, or progress already existing projection talent. look into adventures beyond the body by william buhlman (spelling may be wrong) if you want to begin astral travel.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book makes so much sense that it changed my life., September 30, 1999

By A Customer

Dr. Goldberg seems to have nailed it right on the button. If the content in this book is not true, then Dr. Goldberg deserves a medal for creativity. This book (to the open minded inividual), indirectly answers almost every question ever asked by man. With reference to the upper and lower planes or dimensions he explanes what hell really is, where ghosts come from, where we are headed, and how close we come to this knowlege every night in our sleep. I follow the excersizes in the lucid dreaming section of this book and if this was a fraud, then my dreams would not become more vivid every night like they have. I don't mean to discredit myself and my opinion but an occasional drunken stooper and a couple hits from the .... used to be a great way to expand the mind or just have fun, but Dr. Goldbergs suggestions not to have any intoxicants in the body has helped me imensely. Not to sound repetative but it all makes sense. The answers are within us, we just need a little guidense sometimes on how to access them. People can do hundreds of different things to improve the quality of life on this planet, but nothing compares to complete knowlege and inner peace that can be obtained through complete submission and patience to the knowlege presented in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Astral Voyages, May 18, 2002

By	Cassandra Barnes "Cassandra" (California) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Bruce Goldberg, D.D.S., M.S. is well-known in the metaphysical world. A hypnotherapist, he has authored numerous books, appeared on television programs, and been the subject of newscasts, radio broadcasts, and magazine articles. He has conducted more than 33,000 past life regressions and future life progressions.
Dr. Goldberg maintains "it is certain that we have a second body that can safely leave and return to our physical body." In Astral Voyages: Mastering the Art of Soul Travel, he explains how everyone can learn to leave their body behind and travel wherever they want to go. He emphasizes that the purpose of astral travel is to encourage the spiritual growth of the soul.
He explains how travelers can protect themselves with white light, and maintains that there is no danger in leaving the body. He also says that everyone has the ability to leave their bodies, that, in fact, we all do so when we dream at night. His intention is to help people develop their abilities so that they may travel at will.
Some techniques for astral travel work well for some people, while other people need different methods. Dr. Goldberg presents detailed instructions for a variety of ways on achieving out-of-body experiences, including using crystals, herbs, or oils, visualization, contemplation, and hypnosis. Readers are encouraged to experiment with them all, and then choose the technique that works best for them.
One chapter describes the types of beings astral travelers might meet in their voyages. While most people meet only loving masters and guides, Dr. Goldberg does provide instructions on how to recognize and protect oneself from a negative entity.
One section even explains how to have astral sex! (No, it isn't done quite the same way on astral planes as it's done on the physical plane.)
Dr. Goldberg says that "more people than ever possess the ability to soul travel and explore alternate and probable futures, move into new understandings and concepts of time, control the subconscious, and tap into the powers of their Higher Self." Astral Travel provides all the techniques and guidelines needed to achieve your own out-of-body experience.
