Many do not understand or are afraid of the unknown world of the astral, so when they hear this word they have an association with something dark. So let's dispel this myth. The astral world serves as an intermediary between the spiritual and the physical world.
The representative of the astral world is: energy (or force), soul, astrosome.
From the point of view of physics, what are the bodies divided into
All worlds penetrate into one another in varying degrees. The principle of energy is Spirit, and energy is manifested in matter, which it sets in motion.
According to physics, all bodies are decomposed into molecules, and molecules into atoms. In this case, there are simple bodies whose atoms differ from the atoms of other bodies and can not be decomposed any more, this is gold and hydrogen.
At the base of all bodies and all kinds of matter lie primary atoms "astral atoms".
Basic concepts
Astral mother I - this is the same material substance, only having a more subtle nature. At its level of vibration it is quite material. As the spiritualization of matter, it approaches the Spiritual Principle. There are two main poles: Spirit and Matter, between which there is a mass of intermediate steps. Spirit and Matter penetrate each other and all this is surrounded by the Astral. The astral penetrates into everything and surrounds the whole world, connects star systems with each other. Combining the stars with rays of light, force of attraction and other factors.Astral - being the energy of matter shares the properties of ordinary matter, namely: the atoms of all matter are in vibration, the atom of one body is connected with the atom of the other.The most subtle vibrations are animal magnetism (on the astral plane Xn-rays), that is, psychic energy. Already in the field of electricity, vibrating matter is a lower (dense) astral.
- Xn - high frequencies of the astral.
- Electricity is low.
The astral is thus divided into a multitude of energy octaves of vibration.
Positive and negative poles of the astral
After the rough electricity goes:
- electric light,
- sound waves,
- heat beams
- XH-rays - physical magnetism (magnet).
Magnetism, including the animal is inherent in all bodies, and the body has two poles (+ and -). The whole Astral is also polarized, while it is in constant circular motion. The speed of the Astral Vortex can not be grasped by the imagination. Therefore, in our concept, space and time in the astral does not exist.
- The positive rays of the Astral have the symbol of the Sun and are called the ANM.
- Negative rays have the symbol of the Moon, and are called AOB.
- And being in a balanced movement are called AOP - it means - astral, or astral light.
- At the base of the ANM lies Jonah - the power of expanding space and life, its symbol - a dove.
- And in the foundation of AOB lies Erebus - the force of compression of time and death, its symbol is a raven.
The ancients depicted the Astral as two serpents standing spirally, one around the other. This is the emblem of the ANM and AOB in a balanced state.
Etheric or astral bodies
The astral is filled with various etheric or astral bodies, partly conscious, partly unconscious.
Astral bodies - Astrosomes, are formed in consequence of the condensation of astral particles, just as in the air saturated with electricity, ball lightning (unconscious astral energy) is formed.
Astrosomes
Unconscious astrosomes gather near the positive poles, and the conscious ones around the negative poles. In astrosom there is a process of attracting and isolating molecules into the Astral. In this case, the potentiality of molecules in the entire given region should be more or less the same. Otherwise, if there is a strong difference in the potentiality of the astrosome and the Astral around it, the astrosome gets holes in the shell, - seeking outwards; or the Astral bursts into the astrosome.
Density of the thin world
The world around us is complex and diverse. In the universe, a lot of such worlds where intelligent beings live in different spatial and temporal coordinates, and have different density in the material shell (astral plane). The design of the universe and the basic laws of the cosmos are basically the same. The device of planetary systems and galaxies, according to the arrangement of molecules and atoms. Elementary particles consist of even smaller particles and structures.
At a certain stage the materiality of particles changes and passes into an energy substance, beyond the threshold of the material and physical world lies the invisible (subtle) world.
- The World of Energy-Informational Structures. This world is much more diverse and diverse than the physical world.
- This world is populated by intelligent beings who do not have gross, physical shells (bodies).
- There also accumulate certain thought forms, thought-cliches, feelings of various beings.
- There, too, Egregors are created, due to the mental and emotional energy of many people.
What is the supreme mind - God, the laws of the universe
In the Universe Everything develops according to certain laws, - the laws of Harmony and Causal and Investigation Relations. The power that created the universe is beginningless, unlimited and all-pervasive. It is the creative beginning, supporting, regulating and directing development of the Universe. This is what we call God, or the Higher Reason. His influence extends to all events and processes, with the help of the powerful Hierarchy of Light, the essences of subtle higher worlds.
God created man in the image and likeness of his own, which means that God created the Spiritual Being with the ability to create the creative beginning of the action. And his ability is all the more, the less the spiritual essence of man. The soul depends on material bondage.
The human body is an animal body in which the immortal spirit is embodied and who temporarily resides in it, to gain experience in the physical world, to know the good and evil, in order to learn to distinguish one from the other by one's own experience, for spiritual growth and development of the consciousness of one's being , through knowledge and creation.
The impact of vibration on life and the world
The whole Cosmos is filled with vibrations of various strength and intensity, emanating from the Primary source of life. And every form of life inhabiting the universe radiates, in turn, the vibrations of one or another force, which depend on its development. The consciousness of every form of life is the ability to respond to vibrations, the ability to respond to them.
The mechanics of the development of consciousness is the increasing ability of every form of life to respond to ever more subtle and high vibrations. The whole evolution of life in the Cosmos and the entire progress of mankind are essentially the development of consciousness.
What is consciousness and how does it develop?
If memory is for the past, then consciousness is for the future. Consciousness is like understanding the spirit; it grows, embracing the whole being, like a flame. In this process, fragments of memory, like slags interfere with combustion.
To know is not to remember. Every consciousness develops individually, and there are no general laws for the development of consciousness. Every consciousness develops according to its line of development, and a normally developing person does not cease to exist, being infinite in his achievements. As there are no two such persons, there are two such souls, just as there are no two such consciousnesses.
The stages of consciousness are innumerable. Since the development of consciousness is the most difficult and longest process in the Cosmos, the desire to preserve the continuity of consciousness after leaving the physical plane of Being, in the more thin shells, on the planes of Being, astral and mental, would greatly accelerate the evolution of development rights.
Consciousness is an immortal entity, eternally reborn
If the physical essence of each form with the cessation of life ceases to exist, then the spiritual essence, moving into the Subtle World, together with the consciousness that is the property of all human shells, continues its conscious or semi-conscious existence, depending on its spiritual development, translating the experience gained by life into ability - increasing available and adding new ones.
Only through the consciousness that dwells in the undestroyable part of the human essence, in its imperishable body, is the evolution of man possible. This supreme principle of man is his immortal essence, the eternal indestructible that accumulates all the good from the past as a pledge for a beautiful future. A man does not have to start his own labors and his trials with every new life, for, being born again, he brings with him the whole stock of his experience and all his previous achievements, which he only needs to remember and resume.
Which bodies are in the astral atmosphere
The astral atmosphere is filled with astral bodies, generated, both by the movement of the Astral, and by the influence of the Spirit and Will on it.
In Astral there are:
- Elementals or Spirits of Nature - (elements).
- Astrodei - i.e. human thoughts, images, desires.
- Astral cliches are the imprints of actions and phenomena.
- Egregors - Spirits of human societies.
- Larvae are creatures born of human passions.
- People are the exodus from the physical body in the Astrosom for some time (exteriorization).
- Elementers are the spirits of the dead and are composed of the Spirit, the Soul and the Astrosom.
- Nirmanakai - Adepts, good or evil, whose bodies are dead, but who have learned to live in the Astral space in ethereal personalities.
Exit to the Astral, for a time in the Astrosom
A person can leave his physical body in the astral body, when the physical body rests in a dream, and the Spirit, the Soul of a person being clothed in the Astros enter the Astral. Although the Astrosom can move a great distance from the physical body, there is always a fluid bond between them, through which the Astrosomes support the vitality and functioning of the organs of the body.
With the outbreak of this connection, physical death occurs. The output of a person in the Astrosome can be unconscious during sleep, lethargy, hypnotic sleep.
On awakening, a person does not remember anything from his communication with the Astral or preserves vague impressions in the form of dreams. With an ordinary dream Astros almost does not move away from his body, due to which, a person is not exposed to danger, which can occur with a conscious exit to the Astral.
With a conscious exit to the Astral, the Spirit of a man goes out of his own free will (using the attention of his consciousness on a meaningful exit), and gives an account of what he saw in the Astral.
Unconscious access to the astral is dangerous
Being in somnambulism, a person under the influence of suggestion can also get out of the body (and at this time the hypnotist subordinates the temporarily abandoned physical body to his will, and manipulates him, forcing him to carry out his orders). A conscious exit can be safe, and the unconscious (under suggestion) is dangerous.
A conscious exit to the astral is safe
With a conscious exit at the Astrosome, a person manages the Astrosom and can move anywhere. However, the output in this case is a lot of danger for a person. Presenting for himself a condensed astral matter, the Astros is sensitive to all touches, impacts, especially sharp metal objects that have the ability to discharge the Astral.
Which entities are dangerous when traveling in the astral
The wound inflicted by the Astrosomus in the vital parts brings him death. In the Astral there is a mass of Lärv, as well as Elementers, who want to prolong their existence and materialize. They can take advantage of the removal of the Soul from the body, and settle into the bodily shell.
Then there are three outcomes:
- The soul in the Astrosome, having felt the mastery of its bodily shell, starts to struggle. If you can drive Larva out, then the person returns to normal.
- Otherwise, Lärva remains in the body (after the return of the Soul), then this madness is interrupted by glimpses of reason, or obsession.
- The soul completely leaves its body, and Lärva remains the absolute master, then this is complete idiocy and insanity.
The nature of Lärva also explains the various mania, insanity, obsession, idiocy, sometimes also as a result of concussion or a violent emotional shock. This is because at such times there is a spontaneous release in the Astrosom, and the Spirit of a person being greatly affected does not allow Larve to take possession of the body.
With the conscious withdrawal of the Astrosom requires a long and special training, and then, the Astros may not want to work (cooperate in this matter) with the person.
How a person can communicate with the astral world
A person has two ways of communicating with the astral:
- A person can even without extracting himself into a connection with the Astral World, through the organs of his Astrosom.
- The inhabitants of the Astral can materialize and become accessible to the senses of the physical body.
Passive and active imagination for astral vision:
- When a person is distracted from the physical world, he can see the phenomena of the Astral World (passive imagination).
- Active imagination - the person himself creates images in the Astral, and passive he comprehends the already existing Astral images.
When we can see the subtle world
Examples of the vision of the Astral World we see:
- in a dream,
- telepathy,
- magic hypnosis,
- clairvoyance.
Formlessness, horror, nightmares of dreams, are explained by the fact that during a dream a person sees Lärv in the Astral.
Telepathy
This vision of a person at a distance (the astral tube), usually when telepathic people see their loved ones, friends, often it happens at the time of death of one of them. In other cases, the phenomenon of telepathy can be seen only through the vision through the trans-monad-astral imprint of the face and action, or simply the phenomenon of the deceased in his Astral body and its materialization.
Clairvoyance
With clairvoyance and hypnosis, a person is able to read or see events for 1000km. In this case, he also sees through the transmonade. Clairvoyants are also able to see the human aura or imprint in the Astral of all his thoughts and desires.
Clairaudience
Animals are very sensitive to Astral. The villagers are receptive to the urban. Sometimes the astral vision is accompanied by a voice, which can be called - clairaudience.
Divination
Under the concept of psychometry, you can sum up the ways of guessing: coffee grounds, eggs, wax. These objects have the ability to absorb and condense the Astral.
This also applies to fortune-telling on a magic mirror, you can see the Astral in it. When communicating with the Astral World, there is always a well-known law - spiritual sympathy and antipathy. Therefore, all occultists put one of the conditions in communication with the Astral World - prayer, cleansing of the heart and thoughts that elevate the Soul.
Spiritualism
Sprites on the sessions form a magic chain. The medium provides its life force to the disposal of the inhabitants of the Astral, who use it for materialization, partial or complete, and for the production of spiritualistic phenomena (knocking, moving, lifting objects, appearing spirits and communicating with them).
When summoning spirits, most often there are larvae that tend to manifest on Earth, but mostly with spiritualistic sessions, the magical chain formed by the circle of spiritists generates a new Astral being, a collective character called the Spirit of the Circle. Both the unconscious worlds and the Spirits of the Circle in their answers and conversations reflect only the thoughts of those present.
The subject and tone of communication also depends on the participants in the session. Sometimes in the sessions the Astropos of the medium materializes, and plays the role of Spirit. Sometimes Astrosomes are abandoned by the Spirit of a person (astral corpses) after the second death. But the elementers or Spirits of the dead while still in the Astral, are very rare. Mostly it's the Souls of sensitive people, yearning for Earth and looking for a chance to materialize. The challenges of Spirits or Elementers keep their evolution.
How the astral entities materialize in physical reality
Call of the Spirit , so that the Astral image, or the inhabitant of the Astral, becomes visible to our physical sight. The process of materialization is made by condensation of the Astral and attraction of vital atoms, from which the given astral creature creates a body. For this process, the astral being needs a vital force, which it receives in various ways.
Often an astral being (an inorganic entity) extracts a vital force for materialization from living people.
Through strong fear
It is with this goal in mind that astral beings strike a man with horror. Under the influence of strong fear, a person almost completely loses the vitality that the astral phantom quickly absorbs for its materialization. However, the absence of fear of the astral being hinders their materialization, since it is difficult for them to influence a person in order to abduct his life force. When you call the Spirit, a blood sacrifice is usually performed. The blood contains the great vitality necessary for the materialization of the Spirit.
Through incense and rituals
In addition, for the summoning of Spirits, adepts and mages usually use incense, which contributes to the concentration of the Astral. But the main factor in the call is the will and imagination of the adept. Therefore, the rules and rites for this purpose have the goal, above all, to excite the imagination and direct the will.
Through fasting for a long time
Also to the number of basic preparatory conditions for the call of the spirit, is the post for a certain period. Often the adept or magician sees not the Spirit of the called image itself, but only its imprint in the Astral, or even the astral image created by the adept himself
