Yeah astral travel is a pain, but honestly lucid dreaming , although FAR more difficult to master, once mastered, is your doorway to EVERYTHING.
Evoking beings in your dreams, talking with your higher self, opening portals from the dream world to the astral and other planes, etc.
When you fully master lucid dreaming, and I mean FULL control to the point where you even control the grass in the scenery, is gonna give you 100% answers.
Although most of the answers are probably gonna be like “none of your business” or “dont you have more important things to focus on”, its still gonna be legit.
Deceivers and ego can be tricky there but you can call upon a higher being to help you see the “truth”.
Because of the “hero” mentality.
If we all knew the truth we would probably start a global revolution and its gonna be bad for both sides.
Something that I always get from many entities is ;
“Dont get involved” aka dont start to fight.
The whole law of non-interference I guess.
Also higher self who kinda chooses for us lol, “free will” my ass.
Anyway, master lucid dreaming, im nowhere near that yet, but I will master it 100% eventually, its literal paradise, true freedom, actual free will.
But gotta also ground oneself in the physical reality, so lucid dreaming becomes a fun skill, not a form of escapism lol.
Dream make more dream fields alreadyyyyy!!
