Introduction
This article is an attempt to provide the reader with information
about the astral body. This article follows on from the previous article on the
astral plane. For each plane or dimension of nature there must be an appropriate
body to exist, ‘be’ and move in that dimension. As above so below, we have a
physical body to exist, ‘be’ and move in the physical world of three dimensions
and so we must have by this great axiom, a body to exist, ‘be’ and move in the higher
dimensions of nature.
The following excerpts describe the astral body, which is
also often referred to as one’s double or the astral double.
Excerpts on the Astral Body
“So, the astral body
is material, and it is a dense organism such as the physical body. The fact
that matter in its last synthesis is reduced to energy does not deny its
existence once in that state. If we cannot see it with our sense of sight it is
because it belongs to the fourth dimension. Our physical eyes will not serve
for seeing the astral plane until we make them suitable for this purpose, or
until we place ourselves into the astral plane with our physical body. Thus,
the astral organism is as dense as the physical organism, yet, it belongs to
another department of the kingdom.
The astral body is
much more sensitive than the physical body. The astral organism is like a
duplicate of the physical organism. As the physical body has to be nourished
with food related to its nature, so does the astral body.
The Occultist utilizes
the astral body for his studies and for his great investigations, because such
a body is advantageously arranged over the physical body. Time and distance do
not exist for the astral body, and what one learns through it remains
immediately recorded within the consciousness of the Being forever.”
Excerpt from the book: “The
Revolution of Beelzebub”, by Samael
Aun Weor.
“If material objects
exist in this physical plane, likewise material solid objects exist within the
astral region, because the astral plane is as material as the physical plane.
Moreover, we can visit the astral plane any time we want by penetrating within
it with our physical body of flesh and bones, dressed and prepared as if we are
going on the street for a walk.”
Excerpt from the book: “The
Revolution of Beelzebub”, by Samael
Aun Weor.
How is the Astral Body Created?
“As above so below” gives us the answer, as the physical body
is created with sex, the astral body is also created using sex, though a very
different procedure is required. For more information about this please refer
to the articles on Alchemy.
The following excerpts explain this further.
Excerpts on Creating an Astral Body
“That matter of
fabricating the astral body has been, is, and will always be an absolutely
sexual problem.
There exists an
occultist maxim that says, “As above so below.” We could also say, “As below so
above.”
If in order to
engender the physical body, the sexual union of the phallus and the uterus is
always needed; it is absolutely logical to say that in order to engender the
solar astral body, the sexual act is indispensably needed.
Inside that
complicated and difficult labyrinth of pseudo esotericism and pseudo occultism,
there cannot be lacking, from time to time, some degenerated infra-sexual, who
goes around saying, that since we have the two poles, masculine feminine,
within, one can fabricate the astral body without the need of the sexual act.”
Excerpt from the book: “The
Solar Bodies”, by Samael Aun Weor.
“Sexual Hydrogen is
developed within the human organism according to the musical scale Do Re Mi-Fa
Sol La Si.
The Sexual Hydrogen Si
12 abounds in the semen, crystallizes new human bodies and wisely transmuted
takes form in the astral body.
By refraining the
sexual impulse in order to avoid ejaculation of the semen, the Sexual Hydrogen
Si 12 receives a special shock that takes it to a second superior octave, which
is processed in accordance with the seven notes of the scale: Do Re Mi Fa Sol
La Si.
No occultist should
ignore that the transformation of the substances inside of the organism is
processed according to the Law of the Octaves.
The union of the male
and female Si 12 and everything that accompanies these two unities, allows us
to pass the Sexual Hydrogen to a second superior octave, the result of which
ends up being the crystallization of the said hydrogen into the marvellous form
of the astral body. The said body of perfection is born from the same material,
from the same substance, from the same matter from which the physical body is
born; this is precisely the transmutation of lead into gold; the transformation
of the physical body into the astral body.”
Excerpt from the book: “The
Solar Bodies”, by Samael Aun Weor.
The astral body is greatly strengthened when we transform
the impressions that we receive in our daily life. Transforming the various
impressions of our daily life also helps us to fabricate the astral body when
we are working in order to create it.
Summary
The astral body is something that not all human beings have.
Those who have it, have it because they have worked to create it in the past,
and those who do not have it, can work to create it in this life. One knows
that one has an astral body when one can use it, that is travel with it consciously
in the astral plane.
The astral body is a body of flesh and bone made up of a
superior type of matter and energy than our physical body. It is the result of
the transmutation of the sexual energy. The astral body allows one to enter,
exist and ‘be’ in the astral dimension of nature. It is the right body to exist
in and move in the astral plane. The matter of the astral body is of the same
nature of the matter in the astral plane.
