The Astral Plane by C.W. Leadbeater

Its Scenery, Inhabitants and Phenomena

A systematic esoteric survey of a subtler world that interpenetrates the physical, describing the constitution, colors, densities and inhabitants of the astral plane — from human astral bodies and their states between death and rebirth to elemental and nature-spirits — and explaining how clairvoyant perception apprehends its phenomena. It outlines the laws and vibrations of astral matter, the formation and persistence of thought-forms, the processes of dreaming and after-death experience, stages of psychic development, and the moral and practical cautions for observing or working with occult faculties, situating the astral realm within a larger scheme of spiritual evolution.
