I have a problem when I astral project

What method did you use?  Not that it has anything to do with your question, In for a penny in for a pound? You are indestructible there aren't you..

Hi...
I really want to have Astral Projection, sometimes I had it unknowingly. But I want to make it happen knowingly.
While practicing meditation I tried various techniques like imagining my Astral Body expanding...or Rope technique & others too. My Astral Body starts tinkling but couldn't come out out of body as my physical body gets stiffed. I try to keep my physical body relax but doesn't get  success in that. Could you please suggest me a way out for this. I will be really grateful to you.

Thanks...

Whenever I successfully leave my physical body I am in my room. I just did this and I went downstairs to see my brother and my mom, they talked very quietly and I could not make out what they said and they seemed so real I questioned if I was in the astral plane or in reality. I walked outside to see that although all the lights in the house were on and it was beautiful inside outside was dark and a little creepy to be honest. I really wanted to go fly around but the darkness really made me feel like it was a bad idea to leave the house. Is there anyway I can make it sunny outside? Or should I face this fear of going outside in the dark and just take a leap of faith? I tried imagining it was light outside but it still didn't work.

Whatever you encounter is based on your expectation.  You can see more color in darkness than you do in light.  But practice during the light so that in darkness you can see.
