lt all depends on where you end up. The earth like sphere [plane] that most go to is much like it is here, and quite a lot don't even know their dead - also, they retain the same age they were here, until they wake up and go tho a higher place.
This description is by a man who has been astral projecting to these world's for about 40 years:

When I investigated the first counterpart I was intrigued about the level of “physical” detail I found, down to the stains of the beer glass on the table or the litter on the ground or neglected, even derelict, areas. Initially, back in the seventies, this contradicted the tales I had read from numerous “life after death” books, which categorically state that unwanted things, such as dirt, just magically vanishes. Most of these reports talk about pastoral landscapes with green countryside, a never - ending summer and people living in picturesque cottages with quaint gardens. This is reported so consistently that it has developed into a universally accepted cliché about the afterlife in much the same way as the Christian idea of angels sitting on clouds and playing harps.

I am not saying that there are no pastoral landscape with quaint cottages. If there are, (and there is no reason why there can’t be), they are likely to be located on higher levels. Though the astral traveller exploring our multidimensional universe will find that the environments are a billion times more diverse and complex than we are led to believe by the stereotypical reports of clairvoyants. As always belief is not good enough. This is a challenge to the astral traveller to find the evidence for themselves.

My overriding intention is to demolish old myths about the afterlife and introduce an element of reality, so when people die they are not shocked, confused or disappointed by what they find. For a start we will have to accept that there are as many environments as there are people. We only have to look at our present physical place to see the truth of this statement. People may be living in the same town or even the same road and yet live in totally different worlds with their own unique experiences. But also we may be shocked to find out, rather than arriving in some glorious paradise, that we might be getting more of the same we have just experienced on Earth. (This of course, is not the case on the higher dimensions).

I then proceeded to investigate and found an abundance of dreamers mingleing amongst the dead. Some clearly absent minded following their dream projections. All the hallmarks of the physical earth were there in abundance including cars, buses, taxies, market stalls, shops, trains, supermarkets and building sites, simply because this is what the living created. To my surprise I even found that money is happily exchanged between residents. There are bars, pubs and strip joints. In short there is nothing that does not exist on our physical earth. The people too look very much like the physical people do here, including their weight problems, age and disabilities, not at all the attractive type you will find on the next levels upwards who have mostly reverted back to their youthful prime.

Most people who live here simply have accepted that life goes on as usual in very much the same way as their physical life did. The noveltiy of flying is almost totally absent as are the manifestation powers we find on the higher levels (though I found that strong expectation somehow creates better result in manifestation than the active intend of creation).

The first dimensional counterpart can be heavily populated which is a sign that a large number of our earth population lives on a rather low spiritual level which won’t give them access to the higher levels when they first cross over.
