The Astral Plane

About this book

Ghostly sightings, out-of-body experiences and encounters with strange beings all find a place in C. W. Leadbeater's map of the astral world. He names its inhabitants and describes the conditions of an invisible region he claimed to perceive.

This compact Theosophical manual classifies the astral plane's supposed scenery and inhabitants, including the dead, living people, nature spirits and beings produced by thought. The detailed descriptions are presented as clairvoyant observations. They offer a close look at the orderly, sometimes bewildering cosmology that Theosophy built around psychic experience.
