astral projection?

[Deva Raja]

When meditating, after relaxing and entering a light trance, after a while I get the following sensations.
My forehead and facial area feels like expanding and I have the sensation of moving upward but like
moving through a veil. It's like there are veils in front of me and me entering them while expanding.
When this happens I go back because I am afraid to continue. They are very strong sensations.

Is this the begining of an AP?
What would happen if I continue?
Is this dangerous in any way?

Thanks

It does seem like an AP.
It's not dangerous.
If you're lucky, you'll have a complete projection, fly around and see stuff. It can be your surroundings (an OBE) or it could be a different scenario (an AP). Or, you could continue with this type of symptom, and then wake up in your body, after a brief 'click'. This is more likely if you're meditating sitting up and not paralyzed.
