Account 034 - A Journey Toward the Sun - Part I — YouTube from the CEC Library

Experiencing astral projections with increasing lucidity led me to question many things that are fundamental to life. Through books, studies, and relationships, I have always sought to move beyond the realm of things that imprison us. This desire to know more led me to a persistent search that I consider a path to happiness. The subject of leaving the planet during an astral projection is fascinating, and the central idea is that we need to become better human beings and learn how to relate to one another.

By 1983, a remarkable year, I had already experienced many astral projections. During that period, I began to systematize a study of projections, writing down what I saw outside the planet. I worked without expecting to encounter extraterrestrials or experience science-fiction situations. Life is the reality of daily existence, and I began to accept things that did not coincide with what I saw. Over time, I became proficient in this kind of work and overcame my initial fears, such as the solitude of the universe.

In 1983, I began to attempt bolder experiences, such as the idea of going to the Sun, which represented an immense consciousness to me. The Sun symbolized a vast consciousness, and I wanted to expand my limits and accept what was different. I planned a journey to the Sun, but it was not simple. I had already had several experiences in other places and knew that, even with a high degree of lucidity, one never reaches 100% because part of the consciousness remains anchored in the physical body.

Lucidity outside the body is hundreds of times greater than lucidity in the physical body, despite the distractions that take away our perception of life. I prepared myself for this experience. At the time, I worked at a company and had two employees who accepted the idea of astral projection. I told one of them, Ana, about my intention to project to the Sun. She became interested in helping me write a book about the experience.

I made my first attempt to leave my body and travel toward the Sun using a scientific methodology, writing down everything: what the day had been like, the time, the objective, and how far I intended to go. I lay down and began the experience. I left my body smoothly, thanks to my effort and the help of the helpers. I lived in a place with abundant vegetation in the Amazon, where the sky was clear and unpolluted.

As I ascended, the luminosity increased until I caught sight of the Sun, which seemed to be observing me. I thought that I wanted to know it and perhaps express gratitude, because our lives depend on it. I continued ascending carefully so that I would not lose any information. The ability to experience astral projections with a high degree of lucidity allows us to record information far beyond what our physical body can perceive and record. Even if only 10% of what was perceived in a lucid state is brought back to the body, the amount of information is so great that it can be dazzling both to the person who experiences it and to the person who hears the account. It is a very specific and special experience.

I began to move away from the Earth and noticed that our perception changes considerably. Up to a certain distance, we leave the planet's denser aura. In the place where I was, the emotional aura, composed of the energies we emanate, was less dense. In a major city such as São Paulo, for example, the difference is notable because the energies are heavier. As we move farther away, even while still within the planet's aura, consciousness and the capacity for energy circulation increase significantly.

The level of perception, lucidity, and vision is extremely high. These records are important because they transcend our physical senses. With a high degree of lucidity, from a certain altitude and distance from the Earth, it is possible to perceive what is happening in 360 degrees. Although this is not clear vision, it is a broad sensation. In this state, one is also aware of what is happening to the physical body, which is a wonderful experience and difficult to describe because feelings are not easily conveyed. It is easier to convey an emotion, but it often comes distorted, with pulses and charges that impress yet do not provide the clarity and discernment necessary for a complete understanding.
