Hi Douglas ! Great post !
I agree that the astral isn't restricted in any way - but perhaps you need to make progress during astral "travel" in order to reach different levels.
I think that Monroe referred to this type of progress...his guides would tell him "you are not quite ready" or "you aer ready" to experience some new energy field.
I reckon your "ID card" might be your way of manifesting the fact that you have made some kind of progress.
cheers

Hi folks!
My latest experiences from last night; BTW Although there is nothing too exciting here for experienced phasers, perhaps beginners might recognise some of these first steps on the long road!
Last night, I think that I may have found my way to the 'reception area' of Monroe's F27. Bear in mind that F27 is just a human label that Monroe made up, but if you use it, the inhabitants of the astral regions usually know what you mean. This is the second time this has happened, but unlike last time, where I zipped back almost right away, this time I was able to stick around for a while.
For those who don't know about my phasing experience so far, I am still a beginner. I cant phase 'on tap' as yet. Instead I just tend to randomly (or is it really so randomly?) wake up during the night in just the right mental frame of mind. I can feel some vibrations; then I enter a lucid dream state. I then state the intent to go 'higher'; if this works then my lucid dream astral suroundings disipate and I emerge in the astral proper. This sequence of events tends to happen around once or twice a month on average, with occasional dry spells of two or three months.
yeah, I know, YAWN! Anyway, This happened last night, so right away I placed the intent to go higher and I appeard in some kind of very light coloured, spacious corridor with smooth walls and large, rough hewn stone pillers; marble perhaps, all very light coloured.
My level of awareness was the highest yet. I would say that I was at C1 or awake level awareness. 100%: this only the second time I have had this level of awareness, usually a lucid state is slightly below this level.
Everything felt normal. Its just like being teleported out of your bed to the middle of some unusual building. I had to pause a while to stay cool. Try as I might, I could sense no aspect of my sleeping self back in bed, my focus was all here. I thought, 'excrement, if I go round that corner I'm sure I will bump into someone eventually, but I'm not sure if I'm ready for that or not'.
Anyway, I though, 'what the hell', and kept walking. Round the corner was a series of desks. There was a women behind one of the desks there. I approached her and asked if this is F27. She smiled and pointed up the corrider and said I should ask there; at least she knew what I was talking about!
I proceeded up to the far end and the final desk. I said to the woman there that I was 'looking for a F27'. I think she misunderstood me slightly as she smiled and replied that F27 is not a person, its a place.
Then she asked WHY I wanted to go there, she hoped it was not just 'for entertainment value' and that I was serious about this, which I am. She then asked for some kind of ID , like a passport or somthing. This threw me, but just then I remembered that i had been given a kind of passport or id card on my last phasing encounter when I believe I witnessed a retrieval in progress. I had been given the card afterwards as a kind of 'membership card' if I wanted to pursue that sort of work.
I told the woman this and she said that would be fine. Just as I was looking for the card however, I zapped back to C1 and awakefulness. AAAARRGGGH!!!
Well, that it. I think this is the furthest progress I've made yet, but I don't know what to make of it really. The suroundings were striking, very solid, stable and real. My level of awareness is conected to this of course, and this was the highest yet.
I dont know what to make of the id thing though, as I dont think that the F27 level of the astral is restricted in any way, ie needing passes and so on.
Thinking about it, I think perhaps the id card in this sense represents my ability to navigate the astral. To move freely in the F27 region requires a high amount of stability and good control, otherwise you will just drop out of it. I think the card is basically a representation of my ability to do so. The woman was basically asking if I have the required astral skills to hit F27, which I don't think I have just yet, to be honest.
The card is probably a representation of a 'rote' detailing my current progress. The fact I coudnt find it may indicate that I'm not quite ready to hit F27 just yet, or maybe I just got confused and dropped out. I remember at that point my awareness dropped to below lucid and I then woke up.
Well, thats all. Thanks for reading.
Regards,
Douglas
