Sacred Sites Alchemy The Astral Body and Dimension

The Astral Body and Dimension By Freya Savitri Sampson Custodian Eartheart

By and large, human beings spend most of their time in the Astral Dimension, thinking, feeling, day or night dreaming.

Called ‘The River of Forgetfulness’ by ancient mystics, which explains why one cannot remember their dreams in detail every night, nor anything before this lifetime. When we sleep we enter this dimension deeply. Each time we incarnate and conversely die, we must cross the Astral to reach our destination.

The Astral is dark, watery in nature, having no light of its own, unlike Earth, Soul and Source dimensions.

Our Astral Body is comprised of the two equal and opposite parts: mind and emotion.

Generally, people’s minds are undisciplined, thinking and feeling without awareness of what they are creating with the power of their word, both internally and externally.

Polarity is strong in the Astral Dimensions, where pairs and opposites are clearly defined in this illusory dimension. It is changeable and, although things appear true, which is mostly subjective and subject to change, some beliefs are more easily changed than others. The watery nature of the Astral can make turning the ship of the mind quite a task. If the habit or belief is deeply ingrained, one must lean on the wheel, steady as she goes, weathering tides, winds and waves of emotion, come rain, hail or shine. This is a good metaphor for how the Astral and the Physical interact.

No-time-space exists in the Astral. Hence one can change one’s mind or feeling in a moment and in a dream, a scene can change seemingly without a congruous segway. Only the Physical Dimension is bound by linear time.

All manner of Astral Wildlife live there and, as with the 3D-physical, there are both friendly and very misguided people. Only beings who reside in the Soul Dimension have embodied unconditional love and hold humanities highest good at heart. They may present clairvoyantly, although due to the illusory nature of the astral, a being presenting as a guide may also be an imposter.

In the same way, the Astral has lovely places and as many that are unpleasant. We all have the ability to Astral Travel, although I do recommend undertaking study with a reputable teacher before attempting it, as they can help you avoid the many pitfalls of this practice.
