I am learning more about the astral. I have my tentacles in all matter of interest, including in other forums. I am keeping an astral projection journal elsewhere... This persons reply has really helped me... And I think it says something about exploring uncharted realms with an open heart and mind.
You're welcome tides; I'm glad if that gives some ideas.
I don't think the desire to go UP is silly; misunderstood after some point, ok maybe. For me, the desire to launch into space and the stars was and still is quite exciting. The expression of pure freedom of flight, control and my sense of empowerment and independence once I had this ability in the Non-Physical Reality was such a soul-expanding, consciousness-raising experience beyond most everything before. So, I think I fairly recognize the early value of the experience; what I missed was possibly that at some point our NP teachers use that experience, or the denial of it, to teach us to look elsewhere for our next lesson.
So maybe the desire to fly into space eventually is recast as another form of excitement, or a form of emotion to be understood and controlled. We learn the hard way, usually, of the earlier emotions to be brought under control-Fear is almost always the first, followed soon by sexual desire. Most of us spend a fair amount of time lost within fear and sex, until we learn balance and control. Then often follows various forms of confusion, distraction and excitement. Each of these needs repeated exposure in order to recognize them and maintain our composure. And we seem to all get tested and re-tested and quizzed on these older subjects even as new subjects are presented. So, maybe the excitement of flying skyward eventually becomes recast as just another form of excitement or distraction, but only in the temporary sense to teach us to look elsewhere for the next lesson. I would hate to think that in the future I will never be allowed the occasional spaceshot, lol!
So, the next time you find yourself in a NP environment- Stop and observe and ask inwardly- What is the lesson I am supposed to learn here? Then go with the flow.
Your descriptions are excellent and I’m enjoying the journal.
Cheers to you!

Which validates your point and may even show the age we're in! How can I knock technological marvels? I am not trying to do that at all.. If anything, it is all a reflection of MIND. I am FOR technology. My gripe with technology is that it is MAN who has hindered our own progress, destroying zero point energy systems at an early age to prolong profit. Creating new systems that will enslave and not liberate. We have the technology to provide clean water, cure cancer and so much more... Yet we've kept the real marvels hidden- some are used for wars and others are used for those wealthy elite who consider themselves the "hands of destiny." Perhaps even another sign of the fact that we are still somewhat in dark ages.
