This is a term i'm hearing alot lately...about peoples relationships with 'their higher self'... Now I don't believe in two destinct entities being from one shell...your 'astral' form technically speaking has the knowledge you retain on teh asral planes, passed lives, ect...while you havn't 'awoken' and thus don't have your memories... While both are the same all you're really doing is asking your 'subconcious' self to release the information pertaining to something...the danger with this is we like toe mislead ourselves and make up granduer...which happens alot in otherkin circles. The process, ratherthan connection with ones higher self, we should be focusing on awakening, which basically allows you the memories experiences, abilities ect from passed lives. Giving you ready access to the information that's 'subconcious'... There isn't two seperate entities...though teh astral form is known to act based on your subconcious before awearness is given to it and it's actions. Or such is my view

Agreed with you. I've got the feeling that my "astral" form is bigger than my body though, so the connection to it can be found both inside and outside of myself. I'm in the process of full awakening and I'm slowly making a bridge between the "astral" form and my conscious self. ;D

I could give you many thoughts and theories about the higherself, I do not, I don't understand it yet. But I use my 'higherself' in life. For example I 'connect' and transmit my desire to experience 'X', that works especially good before going to bed (or in the morning). Some things manifest faster and others take more time. Then I use the energy reading in the hands, for example ask if that food is good for me. I think there is a part of me with much more knowledge and power.

I tend to think of it more as my subconscious rather than my higher self, since the term "higher self" just doesn't sit all that well with me.
Not that I know that much yet, but this is how I feel for the moment.

To me that term is not a new one, for me it is the equivalent expression to our godhead connection we hold within or our Soul & it's Wisdom. It's more than just intuition or the 'knowing' of things. It also is home to the Ego/Inner Child whom I believe are on the opposite sides of the same coin. The Ego self-sabotages for the Inner Child who is needing attention. I do believe that we also carry a Spirit within, I think this is where our Free Will comes in to play. In Greek the word for breath is the same as spirit. I think our spirits are the ones that can fly away and leave our bodies, both psychically/astrally & mentally. Our souls hang in til the end, correct me if I am wrong, but this is my take on it.
