Astral Expeditions
Pyramid meditation
Keep the initiate's vigil in the King's Chamber, from the long climb up the gallery to the light at dawn.
This session sets the scene for an old rite of passage inside the massive structure. You climb the long gallery and then sit in the King's Chamber, waiting quietly through the dark.
The only effort asked of you is to stay still until the first light arrives at dawn.
A silent chamber made of heavy stone sits at the top of a long climb. The air is still and the walls are vast, with nothing required of you but to wait through the hours of darkness.
You keep a vigil in the quiet until the first light of dawn begins to show.
What’s in it
A long descent through the pyramid, a silent chamber, and the first light of dawn.
Why do it
The steady journey and the promise of light guide the mind to a space of reflection and awe.

Where it sits
Bolder inner voyages: astral travel, time travel, distant worlds, and quiet contact.
These go further than the calmer journeys. You stay in control the whole time, and you can stop any time by opening your eyes and breathing. New to this? The journeys below are a softer place to start.
Why going here does anything
The mind settles when there is only one thing to look at for a long time. A steady journey from the descent to the dawn gives attention a clear line to follow, which keeps you from turning elsewhere.
The space does not need to do anything other than exist while you sit there.
Before you press play
- Not the right session right now if any of these are live for you: claustrophobia.

Hypnosis is not for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a psychotic illness, or you are under psychiatric care, talk to your clinician before using this — here or anywhere.
