The Present Moment

I am curious if anyone has noticed changes in their left or right hand dominance in the astral. Do you use your dominant hand out of habit, or because you have to?

This is an interesting question. If I'm honest I don't seem to favour either hand. In reality I am ambidextrous - but I favour my right hand and left foot. Perhaps this in part explains why I see no dominance of either left/right in the astral.

If I had to theorise, I'd say people would on the whole favour the same hand/foot as they do in reality - because it would be a habbit - but I see no reason why one hand/foot should have dominance over the other etc.

I do often wonder why I am able to weild two swords effectively in the Astral.  I can't do jack with my left hand in that department in the physical.  I would end up cutting myself.

Well, Like MisterJingo I to am ambidextrous... So I dont personly know...
However my friends have told me that they can use both hands in the planes... some even find the oppasite hand easier...

Thanks for your responses. I think this is a good indication that if the astral body is at all reliant on the brain, it is at least using different parts of it.
