The Astral Realm

Sometimes when I astral travel I can be consciously aware of my surroundings. One of the most confusing places is the astral realm. In the astral realm it is like a lucid dream state. It is easy to see earthbounds, faeries and other lower level beings here. On occasion I have seen my guides and angels in this realm, but not very often. The easiest way to describe this realm and what it's like to be in it is to imagine yourself on a really harsh sedative and trying to walk around, but instead you float. Some parts of this realm are beautiful and bright and other parts are dark. It's like playing in a playground in the middle of a huge city...you can have fun there, but it's not wise to wander there alone and you never know what bad thing might come along.

The Left Door (as many refer to as hell)

I have never been there, but I have seen the "keepers" of this realm. They are tall hooded figures who "direct traffic" and make sure dark entities go where they need to go and not linger around in the astral realm.
The Gray Area

This area is like a cloudy sky, and there are many people there who wander around hopeless and lost. I've been there a few times and it's basically like a "physical nothing." A famous rock god from the 1960's met me there once. I feel I may have connected with him as he left this place. He was laughing and trying to make everyone else look up and they wouldn't pay attention to him or me. Now he happily resides in Heaven and drops in every now and then to save me from a nightmare. Imagine the beautiful poetry he must write on the other side.

By the way, "Kurt" has made to the other side as well. He loves The Beatles!
Heaven
I have visited heaven on a few occasions thanks to my grandfathers! Both have taken me there on numerous occasions. The most beautiful colors you can imagine and the architecture is "out of this world." It's very organized, but very open and free! The water is so clear and it's just very hard to describe. It's truly paradise.
