In this teaching I explain the astral plane from a practical point of view: how tones, vibrations, breath, and self-observation transport conscious awareness so you can receive, interpret, and navigate inner worlds.

We Already Live in the Astral

The most important thing to understand about the astral plane is that we already inhabit it. We dwell in two worlds at once. At one level we act in the physical world; on the inner side psychologically and emotionally we live in another world made of subtler, more fluid material.

When your mind wanders to yesterday, remembers an event, or anticipates the future, a portion of your consciousness creates an inner image and dwells in that image while your body remains in this room doing something else. People call this daydreaming. It’s common. But there are techniques to deliberately transport yourself into that inner world and make the experience conscious.

The Astral as Midpoint

The astral is the midpoint between the physical and the spiritual. Think of the physical world as a womb or a soul factory. From that ground the astral unfolds — a more subtle arena that interprets higher causal forms and translates them into physical manifestation.

So it’s not about learning how to “get there.” It’s about placing your conscious awareness on the frequency inside you that lights up that arena. If all your energy is tied up in digestion, worry, stress, tension, or shallow breathing, you won’t have enough vibrancy left to energize the inner images that let you jump through the picture.

Picture the Super Mario portraits: we create images in our mind like portraits, then we step through. When you step through your inner portrait, you inhabit the astral vehicle you’ve built by how you live and feel in the physical world — by the prana, ether, air, and light you take in and transform.

Practical Sensory-Closure Exercise

• Do this in the morning facing east.
• Close and slightly plug the eyes, ears, nostrils, and lips to withdraw the senses.
• Focus inward on the vibration of breath.
• Let sound, tone, and rhythm carry you deeper.
• Watch for the inner image that arises. Step into it deliberately.

Final Thought

The astral is not far away. It is the immediate inner counterpart of the physical. With conscious practice, self-observation, and the right use of breath and vibration, you enter it at will and discover the higher reality shaping this world.
