Unlike the popular belief, your soul does not leave your body during astral projection, instead you just transfer the conscious part of your mind to your higher self, which is the larger part of your soul that is not attached directly to your body, if your soul actually left your body as most people think... well you would die, no ifs and buts about it.

During astral Projection it feels like you are floating outside of your body, you are able to travel through the corporal world as an observer, able to see specific locations or just experience new areas, this is also useful for travelling to meet the gods, some people will even have an astral temple of their own they can stay in whilst Astrally projecting.

The meditation itself is very simple, unfortunately achieving the goal is not as easy, it may take a lot of practice,

start by entering a trance, the deeper the more effective.

look through your 3rd eye and feel your body as a shell around you and just try to get up and move around, or just feel like you are floating out of your body, remember don't physically get up and move around keep your body still like it is just a container and you will float out of it, once you are able to float above yourself and look down at your own body then you can start moving around and seeing things. (the feeling of leaving your body is where people make the mistake of thinking the soul leaves the body instead of the consciousness).
