The Twelve Senses

and

How the Astral World Invokes the Physical

Questions

1. After the 5 physical senses, name 7 more.

There are twelve senses in all. The five physical senses have their superphysical counterparts:

6) sight—clairvoyance

7) hearing—clairaudience

8) smell—clairsentience

9) taste—clairsentience

10) touch—clairsentience

Then we list the higher clairvoyant senses.

11) Astral projection [Manipulation of the Astral Body, easier for those incarnated in male bodies. This also includes bilocation.]

12) visions [An activity of the Mental Body, they block out physical vision and sometimes physical hearing.]

2. What are the ways in which we can receive information about someone’s health?

Before doing any clairvoyant activity, remember to invoke the Spirit of Truth. This prevents misinformation by your own expectations or from mischief makers. Also, center or harmonize yourself before meeting the client so that you are clear-minded for the session.

•Remote observance—For viewing your own body, shift your point of view to 45° above your body. Looking down at it you can scan your exterior and internal systems and organs for anomalies. The information arrives to your physical brain via the silver chord.

•Simple inquiry—Accesses the universal information network. You ask one of your helpers for the correct answer, which usually comes you in word form. This is very useful for phone consultations.

•Physical presence— Inspect the client without inquiry. Let there be no assumptions or fear. Points on the body will draw your attention.

•Scanning—Pranic Healingsm uses this technique to gain information about the physical and Etheric bodies. After establishing the size of the Etheric Body, slowly pass your hand about four inches away from the physical body and scout for any heat, heaviness, or thickness in the Etheric sheath.

•Asking your Guardian Angel—is fast and foolproof. She can get you any answer that you need nearly before your question has finished forming in your mind.

3. Who is responsible for your quality of life?

You and you alone are responsible for the events and emotional adventures in your life.

If there is some element that you would like to release to increase the quality of your happiness or experience, you may say the following affirmation.

Everything that is not mine

according to the Divine Plan of My Life

now goes its own way with my blessing and good will.

4. What are the parts of the Third Eye?

The well-developed third eye chakra does several functions. At the sixth dimension it appears as a flame in those who have developed clairvoyance. On the fifth dimension it can extend itself like a telescope, which works to make you see objects as though you were very tiny or very large. In the fourth dimension it looks like a physical eye in the center of the forehead. On the Etheric Body it resembles a small satellite dish.

Through this chakra we emit and receive certain messages, such as when we are fondly remembering a loved one.

5. Gazing exercise: Residual Touch of an Artifact or Psychometry

Everything that we own and care about is held to us by an Astral chord. Through these connections psychics can gain realtime information. You can also focus on residual molecules of a person who may have owned the object in the past. This is what you would do for police work.

•Holding an object in your hand, tune into its owner.

•You may only receive fleeting impressions at first, but with practice you will receive stronger messages, visions, words, emotions, and other information.

6. Why and how does this scrying technique work? What would be the most appropriate use of this technique?

You Astral Body can perceive the chords that connect the object to the owner, follow the link, and observe the individual. The historical information can be achieved by examining the thought forms that are associated with it.

This technique is usually employed for detective type work.

7. Draw or describe one of your helpers.

You have hundreds of helpers, just like we mentioned in chapter 1. Have a little meditation and write down some impressions of how you are surrounded by love and good nudging.

The Feeling is the Reality

Like a boat on the surface of a body of water, the physical world reacts to the steering mechanism within it and also to the fluctuations of the surface on which it glides. You will note that the motions of water affect the boat immediately; in this way also does the Astral world create disturbances, direction, speed, and motion within the physical world. Those of you who have tried to steer a boat will remember that there is a slight delay between the command of the steering wheel and the rudder to the response of the boat. Also, the momentum of the boat continues forward long after the power to propel it has ended. The trick is twofold: 1) to not overcompensate while waiting for the boat to follow; 2) to anticipate the need before it is actually apparent so that one does not turn the boat or cut the forward motion too late.

All of the dimensions are connected in intimate and responsive ways. The Divine Plan sifts downward through the Soulic, Mental, Astral, Etheric, and Physical worlds. Thoughts gather energy and life force, creating motion, emotion, action, and reaction throughout the lower realms.

The cycle of cause and effect in the Physical World is inseparable from the mechanics of the Astral World. All of our experiential emotions are stored within the Astral Body, which has corresponding energy points on the physical body. These emotional memories directly affect health and comfort. Also the Astral Body is shaped and programmed from the beginning of each lifetime to choreograph the events that will validate its self-image. To change the self-esteem is to change the shape of the life.

This is the cycle of conscious change, which could be called prayer, active meditation, incantation, spells, or any number of related names.

1> The idea of the change is formed on a non-personal level and moves from the lower mental realm to the Astral, where it sifts down to conscious thought.

2> The Astral Body (desire body) attaches to the thought form and creates physical stimulus so that the physical brain will get the idea.

3> The physical mind (conscious mind) responds to the stimulus in a hormonal way through desire or rejection, fight or flight, caring or denying, territorial inclusion or alienation.

4> The physical body verbalizes the desire for change. If the conscious mind is well-connected to the mental body, the ability to reason about the logic and value of this desire is enacted. If the logical mind rejects the desire, then the thought form dissipates and dissolves back to primal essence.

5> The physical energy of the desire creates waves of motion into the Universe. Words translate to the Astral Body, who hears and sees all that the body enacts on the physical plane.

6> The Astral Body enacts all words, spoken in jest or in earnest. Let all of your jokes be constructive and nurturing. With or without conscious intent, we thus create the directions of our physical lives and attract the dynamics of our environments.

What we experience in this physical life is not without its level of reality, but the very nature of this life is to respond to the focus and volume of energy that we invest in it. The value systems of the Physical Realm rarely have validity in the Higher Realms, and in this light we can see that the things that we hold dear on this level are actually spiritual testings rather than blessings: beauty, wealth, health, fame, social validation, intelligence, skill, talent. How we react to the possession of these things and how we react toward other people possessing these things reveals the true level of the soul.
