Sharing my progress. There is a hierarchy to the astral realms.

A map of the astral is impossible because the spiritual dimensions are not the same as a physical dimension. Space is not the same in the spiritual dimensions. So using physical logic to map them out is going to construct an inaccurate result.

The (physical/metaphysical) transitional aspect of my being is my conscious soul. There is a hierarchy when you project from an awakened state and there are physical aspects that one can relate to: higher/lower, front/back, colors, spatial measurements. However, my conscious soul is not lucid dreaming, no dream confusion involved.

Hello, new here...

Haven't experienced astral projection, don't really know what it is (hoping Wendy might help me experience it one day)... but I would like to say that there are many ways of mapping abstract/immaterial concepts or experiences. It's the space on the paper that the mapping requires that makes it seem physical. But take sound for example--you can map low pitch sounds to high pitch sounds on a spectrum and draw it out like Wendy did, marking one end -3 (or whatever) and the other end +3 (or whatever).

If one has astral projected more than once, and on each occasion, had a different experience, that means it can be graphed. By the looks of it, Wendy has experienced (or has heard about, or is predicting) not-so-divine realms (hopelessness) and divine realms (peace)... and presumably a few in between. <-- Why can't that be mapped?

I'm with Astral Explorer, it's like trying to make a 3-dimensional map of a 4th dimensional process, impossible to understand that way. I think it just has to be experienced. In a way, taoism speaks to it too, by saying "the tao that can be spoken of is not the true tao." There are some interesting hierarchical things to ponder as far as one's own experiences goes, but ultimately I don't find that it really yields anything useful for me

Your soul has traveled from an awakened state?

I'm charting this for others who may soul travel from an awakened state and invite those who already have to assist me in filling in the question marks.

I saw before a chart of the 7 planes called the Structure of Reality.

Describing the Dimensions of Light 1-12, the Shamanic World and the Tree of Life.

Maybe you can search that on the net and see how you progressed.

Any links would be helpful. Thanks.
