==Capabilities==
Users can project or separate their awareness, consciousness, presence or spirit, alternatively known as their astral form, from their material bodies, allowing for perception, interaction and travel independent of mental or physical limitation. This state is usually achieved through entering a trance via lucid dreaming or deep meditation, with the user gaining access or influence over the mental and astral planes, as well as potentially other planes of existence, an effect which can extend far enough to allow the user to move and exist outside the limits of space and time using their astral form. 
Experienced individuals may be able to control both their astral and corporeal presences, allowing them to project their astral selves without losing consciousness in their physical forms, with the user’s projection acting as an extension of their physical self. Additionally, the user may be able to separate others from their physical forms to either travel alongside them or to imprison them in an incorporeal state. Such a state may even allow for the retention of consciousness regardless of physical damage or even death. Telepaths often achieve astral projection by projecting their minds as well as that of others.
