In the beginning of life on this planet environments were constructed which permitted returns to certain conditions. As this cycle continued to evolve, physical bodies became more sophisticated as did the environment. But the primitive environment did not cease to exist. Within that environment still exist certain life forms that have not been able to move on. Many call this area of experience, Astral realm.
Those early stages of life forms would appear to us now as, weird and unearthly. They became addicted to returning to physical life. But as physical life forms became more specialized they could not find suitable physical vehicles to enter and therefore became trapped in the Astral and will remain trapped until certain evolutionary developments occur.
As life forms became more complex, they evolved into combined human and animal form. Myths and legends are rooted in reality. But as we evolve our own consciousness, we further the evolution which will ultimately enable these trapped beings to be freed. Until then, encounters with such life forms in the Astral are very likely. Whenever you meditate or experience an altered state of consciousness, you in fact move into that Astral realm. It exists in the same space which we occupy, but vibrates at different frequencies. This plane of existence is accessible while in altered states such as sleep, meditation, or trance.
There is potential danger for those who would attempt communication with other realms of existence. It is from this realm that mischievous entities can affect our environment in a negative manner. It is this realm of being that causes Ouija boards to lie, often brings misrepresentation in automatic writing, and appear through channels who are not properly protected. Many in the Astral realm are anxious to return to the 3rd dimensional physical experience, and will do so at any cost.
It is good advice to develop this psychic experience with care and not just enter as precocious children. These invisible entities may say, trust us. However, they may be leading you to experiences you may not like.
When a person dies, he transitions out of this physical and must pass through the Astral. It is into this zone that loved ones come to meet him, to protect, guide, and escort that individual safety into the hands of spirit. The Astral zone has given rise to the belief in Purgatory, that intermediate state of being in which one is said to suffer for one's sins.
When one passes from this physical realm and makes it safely through the Astral, the physical becomes quite unimportant, as there exist many other exciting experiences. Only when the time comes to return to physical life will it again become important. But by that time, there is no memory of it to speak of. New-born infants, however, carry a dim memory of past experience. By encouraging them to speak of it they can make that prior experience a more complete contribution to this new one.
Regression may help recall previous physical lives. But, use caution. As you enter an altered state, your subtle bodies become involved in the Astral zone where those other physical life forms exist. This is how possession can occur. Possession is a fact and not merely obsession as some would have it. It is indeed a possession and will only shorten one’s life span, which cannot survive without the Psyche that created it.
When you go to sleep at night, your subtle bodies dissociate from the physical body, and you become free to roam in this zone. Astral Travel is adventuring into this zone. You have some control when you do it consciously by keeping yourself close to Earth and denying undesirable encounters. You also have the protection of your Source who do all they can to protect you. But, if you want terrifying experiences for some reason, you will be allowed to have them. If you place your goals to your highest potential, you will not be inclined to seek these experiences.
If you wish to have positive encounters to learn, be healed, or find resolution to your problems, then this you will experience. This Astral is not necessarily to be avoided, but some of its occupants are. You cannot help those permanent occupants. You cannot help those who are "trapped".
There are some who are not trapped but only confused. They have separated from the body but have not yet realized they are still alive in another condition. They will wander confused and out of reach until they recognize it. We are solely responsible for the conduct of our consciousness, and cannot be interfered with. If you encounter such an entity in that zone with a blessing and the direction for them to ‘Look For Their Light’, you are doing all you can do for them. If they choose not to hear you, you cannot force them.
As a personality transitions from the earthly condition to the ‘Spirit Physical’ or the‘Other Side’, it travels through the Astral but, you can also choose to transfer in your subtle bodies from one Earth planet to another. That journey takes place in the Astral and does not elevate one into the Spirit-Physical. It remains physical. If the personality making the transition goes instead directly to another human group in the Astral, it must incarnate physically with that human group to complete the exchange, in their physical condition. They are physical, but do not look like us.
Also, when a species becomes extinct, that does not mean it ceases to exist. Some species are extinct because of interference and certain requirements for their vehicle are no longer met. These species rest in the Astral and await that time in the planet's evolution when their vehicles may again be revived. When those conditions arrive they can again move to fulfill the Intention of the Soul which initiated them and eventually have the chance to evolve and go on to higher realms. There is little possibility for change in the relationship between volition and consciousness so long as they are trapped in the Astral Realm, for whatever reason it occurred.
Everyone has protection from their own Source Group. Before going to sleep, thank them for their concern and guidance, and for their protection during your sleep time. They are there to serve and eagerly await your invitation. The Astral zone was created by life and is part of this Life cycle. Until the purpose of this overall cycle is completed, that zone will continue to exist and cannot be removed. Just be aware when venturing into it.
