Is it possible for distinguished witches to summon another humans astral body?

[mark]

I am not a witch. I am asking hypotheticals, wanting to know your opinion, learned knowledge, and also experiences!

The main question is in the title. Is it possible to do rituals to pull someone from their body while they are in a deep meditative state? Against their will, to a degree. As in, they do not want to leave their body & the only way to stop it is to come out of said state and “wake up.” Following questions will be numbered just to make answering easier.

1. Have any of you ever done this, or heard of it being done?
2. If so, why would it be done?
3. Why would someone be targeted for such “harassment?”
4. Could astral traveling unprotected mark you as a target?
5. Would it be achieved by a lasting curse – or have to be performed each time they are summoned. (Excuse me if I use incorrect terminology, bare with me.)
6. Would these sort of attacks more likely be done by humans or other entities that noticed you wandering the plane?

I have seen this sort of phenomenon all over Reddit, in various subs. Very often in r/astralprojection but the mods come after posters for “fear-mongering.” People are dragged out and tortured but they don’t know why. Anything from humiliation, to rape, to assault. I don’t think witchcraft is evil or whatever, actually quite the contrary, but I know there are bad people everywhere. So just please don’t take me as coming off that way. Just looking for some potential reasons/answers, I guess. Thanks guys and welcome to any suggestions of where I could learn more!

I’ve heard of people getting stuck and hurt while projecting but ive never heard of getting pulled unwillingly out. Doesn’t sound possible to me, since it takes at least some time, work, study, and intent to project out in the first place? So pulling someone out who doesn’t want to go they either are super “rooted” to themselves if they don’t practice, or would know how to fend that off if they do? But I don’t practice this myself I’ve just read the basics so I could be wrong on this.

I knew someone from Amino would do that to other people without there permission and just end up leaving them in place that could be dangerous. So the same person did it to me and I told them to leave me alone and some how they found me and I remember they took me to Asgard. I was really made at them after they did to me and next day they text me on amino. Told me do you believe me now and I told them off because they had no right to do that to me and plus I had other things that were after me in astral plane. I was scared during that time and eversince they left me alone.
