Recommended Reading from the Exploring Section:
During the work on construction island 3 (30% ingrowth level) I was informed that there was something wrong with my elements, which obstructed the further ascent at that level. In the article by the Finches (see above for link) from 2004 we can read that there are two kinds of elements: the elements that constitute the physical form (including all levels of ingrowth all the way towards the etheric body), which are called air, water, earth and fire, and the other elements which are called the inverse elements that would take care of the weaving of the fields around the body (ether, vapor, lava, smoke/ash).
This is further specified in the article called 'Tips for Retaining one's Level of Mastery in Ascension' in which we can read that light body grid work is made of these inverse elements. Since the light body can be regarded as a kind of 'modified' astral body (see light body excerpts page), we could say that the inverse elements could be called 'astral elements' in order to create a better understanding of the nature of these elements.
Perhaps the term 'astral elements' only adds confusion to the whole for some, it makes it clearer for me. For one, because of the 'airy' nature of the etheric body I somehow wouldn't have thought it strange if this etheric body would hold quite a few of these astral elements. I have learnt that both the etheric and the physical body (and everything in between) should consist of physical elements only.
When I was directed to check my elements, I was shown that there would have been quite a large amount of astral elements that were 'hiding' in my physical body. In the most physical part of the system I would have had about 40% of these inverse or astral elements. In the most etheric part (or island) I would have had even more inverse elements, up to 70%. Of course you should always take these numbers with a grain of salt, but I surmised that there was some truth in it.
Well, there should be no astral element in the physical at all, so I intended to remove all of these astral elements out of my physical body, including all levels of ingrowth.
I pendulumed that the appearance of so many astral elements in my physical body would have been the result of ancestral agreements between my anu slave ancestors and the Albyreons. You can read more about the Albyreons in the article by Ken, called 'Nature of the Elements' (see above).
The hypothesis I developed and so far this is agreed upon by my guidance, states that the Albyreons who live in a non-physical world, consisting of inverse or astral elements, use the presence of their kind of elements within the physical world, to feed from it. In other words the Albyreons somehow thrive because of these astral elements within the physical body.
Perhaps I am just making this all up, but ever since I started to remove the astral elements from my body I started to have dreams that mainly occurred within the so called 'old astral planes', which are a kind of phantasy planes meant to keep humanity asleep: a lot of drama and chaos can be found within it. If you think of a dark earth dream, I guess these planes fit the description. I was hardly able to visit any healing temple and I felt quite uncomfortable during the nights and when I woke up in the morning. Somehow I just couldn't seem to detach myself from these planes.
After the experiences of which I write in Turtle 24: Let's Wear Something Electrical For the Night I was starting to get fed up with these electrical and now astral events during my dream time. Well, after about a week it started to become less and I tend to think that the releasing of these astral elements from my physical (and etheric) body resulted in the releasing of astral memories that were stored by these elements. I'm not sure about this though. If anyone has had any experience after removing these astral parts from their physical body, please tell me about it.
