| Astral Travel: The Linkage between Physical and Spiritual |
| by Ann Brewer, Channeling Geremyia |
| A human being consists of one physical body and four subtle bodies as follows: the etheric double, emotional, mental, and astral. Each subtle body has a specific role to play in bringing information from non-physical realms into the physical vehicle. The responsibility of your astral body is to bridge the gap between the experiences that occur in the astral planes and your physical reality. Although most are not conscious of visiting other astral planes, you constantly visit other locales in order to incorporate ethereal teachings into your physical existence. Some call these out-of-body experiences (OBE's), and some call it astral traveling. Whatever the terminology and whether or not you have conscious recall, every human being in physical form travels during the sleep state to other realms. Those of you who are frustrated because you think you are not receiving information from your spirit guides or think you do not know how to contact non-physical beings will be pleasantly surprised to know you do this nightly! Have you ever awakened and attempted to open your eyes or move your arms and legs but were unable to move? This is a situation in which your physical body has awakened prior to your astral body's return. Or, have you ever had dreams about flying through the house, sometimes hovering over your sleeping body. This is actually your astral body taking a joy ride prior to re-entering your physical field. There are seven positive and seven negative astral planes associated with Earth. The astral planes you visit depend primarily on your soul group and your progress with your spiritual teachings. For example, the souls who existed in fifth dimensional Lightworker societies like the Pleiades or Arcturus prior to reincarnating on Earth may visit one astral plane while the younger souls who originated in the Earth plane and have not experienced other dimensions might visit another. Similar to our education system, there is an attempt to group those with like experiences together to expedite learning. Those who have chosen dark energy as their source of power may visit one of the negative astral planes since these are the teachings that interest them. However, Lightworkers do not automatically go to positive planes while dark beings visit negative regions. There are many exceptions. What if you once had an intimate relationship in a past lifetime with a positive being who has become trapped in a negative astral plane due to some poor choices. You might not be aware of your past relationship on a conscious level, but your soul retains the memory. Your soul is tormented by the thought of a loved one trapped by dark beings, and you astral travel nightly to the negative plane to attempt to rescue them. Of course, negative astral travel is not advocated since it makes you vulnerable. Although you may carry adequate protection when visiting the negative plane, it may not endure. Plus, you are battling negative entities when descending to the negative astral plane which is not a refreshing experience. Lightworkers traveling to negative astral planes might experience recurring nightmares that are attempting to reflect their experience, or they might awaken exhausted after a seemingly full night's sleep. The astral body is the key to your spiritual growth due to the bridge it builds between your Earth existence and your work in the non-physical world. Often, you evaluate others by aspects of their daily existence, judging someone for the seemingly innocuous existence they appear to be leading. However, you have no concept of the type of work they are doing on the astral plane. You have no idea what soul contracts they have made in terms of the role they are supposed to play during their current lifetime. You have no view of where they have come from, what obstacles they have purposely created to enhance their experience, or where they are going. Understand that everyone is learning on a soul level regardless of how well it appears to be integrated into their Earthly existence. Judging others for their progress, versus accepting them for their attempts, only serves to create blocks in your own evolution. When you transition from this plane at the end of your physical life, you are actually extracting your astral body from your physical body. Essentially, the astral body acts as the connecting link from lifetime to lifetime although most refer to that energy as the soul. Between reincarnations, you attend astral school in one of the seven positive astral planes, reviewing past experiences and learning the teachings of various mystery schools and soul societies. Those who have near-death experiences (NDE) and describe walking toward the light are actually moving forward in their astral body. When they determine that it is not yet time to pass to the other side, they are directing their astral body to return to the physical field. Since we retain our astral body after leaving the physical field, it is even more critical to heal any damage that might reside in it in order to retain full energetic capacity. Some of you have developed damage in your astral body due to past lifetimes that did not support the integration of your learnings from spiritual to physical. These blockages hamper your ability to easily transfer your nightly experiences into your everyday life. If you feel separate from Creator energy or often feel frustrated or angry because you cannot seem to apply your spiritual outlook to your daily existence, you are a candidate for the following exercise: To heal the damage, lie in a bath or float in a swimming pool. Consciously extract your astral body from your energy field and immerse it in soft blue light. When you can imagine your astral body aglow with blue light, allow it to float in the water with you until it feels buoyant and healthy. This exercise allows you to re-integrate the energy from the higher spiritual realms into your subtle body, then fuses it by bridging the vibrational fields through the medium of water.
