| Out-of-body experience (OBE) is actually the same paranormal phenomenon as astral projection and the terms are often used interchangeable. If there is a difference, it's in connotation: astral projection seems to indicate traveling a distance, OBE creates the image of hovering over or near the body. The actual person doesn't physically travel through space to another location. A spirit double called an astral body makes the journey. |
