Astral projection dark?

Every time I succeed in doing my astral projection I feel darkness kinda like evil is around my and I'm fighting for my body kinda thing. Is this normal. I stopped attempting to do it.

I don't know what is your path, but some that I know, should recommend you to release your negative energy and bad feelings with rituals or different methods, when are you going to do astral projection or any kind of work.

On the astral plane your powers are empt. So let's say if you fear or think wat if than that's enough to get some negative energy there, actually any negative emotion is enough to create sou to speak raw dark energy

I would say you need to project in a clean space. In my practice we call it "sacred space". Cleanse and banish in whatever room you plan to AP in and cast a protection to keep away any unwelcomed visitors.

I was about to dismiss this as another fluffy post about how to the dark was out to get them because it didn't want you to reach your full potential. I recommend projecting in sacred space, eg. In your circle. Other than that, in the astral realm, when you project your fear, negative entities can feed on it, as it is a negative emotion. Just think for a second, your god/goddess is there with you, darkness and light. Also, if you are neo-pagan, you should know that the goddess is maiden, mother and crone, she is in the light, dark and land beyond death. The darkness may be the embodiment of your fear or any other negative emotion, so clear the energy in your sacred space, project and don't give it any negative energy to feed on.

AP is something that nobody can help or do for you, but I am sure you can find the best way using each example or method cited in forums, videos, etc.

I can recommend you these books (if you are able to read something):

Astral Dynamics by Robert Bruce
The outer temple of Withcraft by Christopher Penczak

...yes, I am again, talking about this last book, but I am sure this can help anyone who is beginning with AP. The book talk about all introduction (for those who like to feel philosophers and knowledgeable of all existing terms in witchcraft) and later the first steps in AP (astral projection, astral temple, and other terms...including the importance of the good / bad energy)

Thank you everyone I'll be sure to give all these suggestions a try
