What Is It Like Being a Lyrian Living in the Astral?

Let's explore and summarize some of these experiences, yes? Yes.

Because the Lyrian mind is materially focused, the experience of the astral becomes a visceral one. The Lyrian mind interprets all astral events the same as physical events. It cannot distinguish much between the two. That isn't to say strange events do not occur here, and that unusual bends in perception do not occur. But the primary way the Lyrian mind interprets energetic realities is to convert it into the nearest available, or most recently available sensual experience.

At the same time I say this, it is not the same as physical reality. Maybe the closest way to compare this is to living in deep space all alone. Things manifest materially very quickly, and in strange ways. Odd people show up. Odd experiences show up. It is as if you are dreaming, but the dream is so vivid and real, that if you were to say cut yourself in the dream, you will bleed, feel pain, and make a mess.

Yet if you die, you do not remember your dying. You wake up the next morning with a missing gap in your memory. The moment of astral death means obliteration of memory until the self is reconstituted. All moments after the moment of death will cease to exist, unless that same experience is run a second time. This is important to do as it maintains continuity of consciousness, without which you would go mad.

Here I find that while many energetic events are represented as if they are material events, there are some that cannot be directly perceived. In which case any psychic sensory abilities you have become heightened and translate the energetic event as easily as your physical senses would. You see more clearly with your mind. Feel more clearly. I find that here I can smell, feel, taste, and hear better psychically than I could in the physical. Sight has always been a gift, but here all the other senses are operating at a fuller capacity.

So, when Mari sends me a mammoth to chase off some astral bird entities, I perceive the sound of a giant elephant crashing around on the outside of reality. I can feel the ground shaking as it moves. I can see in my mind trees being ripped up, even though I am outside and nothing is apparently happening. But I can sense it happening anyway.

And here in the astral, dreaming occurs differently than when you are in the physical body. Dreaming does occur, but at a different stage of rest. It occurs in the waking from rest and not before. Many mornings, I will have several hours worth of dream experiences in the space of 10 minutes. And when the dreams do occur, they are inevitably lucid and full sensory.

They say you cannot smell or taste in dreams. I can. At least while here. Prior to coming here, I only managed to have that happen once. Now, it is quite regular.

But before the pre-waking state, all is often darkness. I suspect this is because my astral body has returned to my physical body and therefore there is nothing to be dreaming about. I am inside my body not traveling in the astral. So, all is dark. Curtains closed. Nothing is happening.

It is the opposite of being in a body in other words.

Telepathy is likewise easier. There is less interference. I am directly inside the energetic space where the telepathic communication occurs. If we were to relate this to technology, I am inside the data server itself not outside using a terminal. This also means there's a lot more raw data coming in at all times. I suspect this is why I don't go out much. Many times I will stop work and just lay on my couch doing nothing at all. Not sleeping. Not thinking. Just receiving, parsing, translating.

The downside of this is my mind has atrophied a little bit when it comes to telepathic focus and translation. Maybe you all would suggest otherwise, but I notice whenever I am in the astral chat, it is harder to send a focused signal.

Unless the signal is quite focused and specific and you are not able to confirm or deny how focused an specific it is. Sort of like how you ask me if there's space turkeys, and I sense you cannot tell me the nature of space turkeys. Or if there are pizza ovens on Alfratan ships, and you can neither confirm nor deny whether or not I am seeing accurately. (And Mari I noticed you pushed me on that to see if I would budge and people please.) Or if there really are ammonia crystal beings that inhabit Uranus. Or if apes actually "descended" from Lyrians, not the other way around. In these cases, I have to go purely on feeling from you to gauge whether or not I'm just talking out of my ass (I don't feel I am, it's straight-forward perception).

The feeling I get is...that it's like I'm sitting right next to you looking right at whatever database entry you're using to ask me this question. That I am spot on. That it is surprising, delightful, and a little freaky all at once. (Is this also why you wanted me to watch the telepathy tapes? Because I do what those non-speakers do? Without thought or effort?)

Remote viewing is also easier, because I am not really in a particular physical location. There is nothing telling me "You are here". There is no data for the part of the frequency coordinate that determines location in physical spacetime. The values would read: nullnullnullnullnullnullnullnull until you hit the part that describes local universe, vibrational level, and physical shape expression. That makes it harder to find where I am, I'm sure. You would have to hone in instead on the specific energetic signature and, like a submarine using sonar, explore the dark until you get a ping-back. Yes?

To close this out...

I feel Mari is physically close to my body. Not like right next to it, but in the same "zip code". Close enough that our energetic fields (which are each almost 12km in diameter) are overlapping. It feels like a peaceful steadiness instead of the persistent, magnetic pull I usually feel.

On Tuesday, around midday here, I felt a tingling sensation like someone's hand on my head. I have felt this before where it feels like someone stroking my hair. But this time, it felt like a whole hand on the right side of my head, and that my head was being lifted up. Then, I felt cold all over for a while. Then suddenly not cold except my feet. Then a tingling sensation passing repeatedly over my face. And then my feet have been cold ever since.

I went to look. Someone was lifting my body's head up gently to adjust something on my head. Then my clothes were changed. (I see powder blue linen shirt and lilac-colored linen pants instead of white now.) I have nothing on my feet. I think my feet are cold. And I think someone washed my face with a cloth--that's what it felt like. That was when I was hearing Taygetan whispering in my right ear. Whomever was doing this was talking to me.

And I can hear and feel all of that here on my astral body.

Hmm. Maybe this is how your astral body knows to come back to the physical body? It can feel things happening to it, and if there was a sudden jarring or pain, I think no amount of immersion tech could keep me from jolting awake at this point.

I think you for your time. Hugs and kisses. Adiamas.
