Cities in the Astral

~01/13/15 I hit the snooze again (9 minutes) and pictured the last scene. I started moving my legs using tactile visualization. I almost thought I was moving my real legs, but realized that was not the case as I could not be moving them very much while in bed. Suddenly I was landing in front of the temple I had seen from the sky scraper. I walked through a large red gate in the Shinto style. It was a large open area and I walked around to the right side of a half wall. I reached up and touched one of the pillars. A piece of the pillar came off in my hand and it appeared to be ancient wood eaten by ants or something.

I hear the voice of my D.G. "I really do not think you should be walking around in here."

Ok, well she has never led me wrong, and it is so damn easy for me to get in trouble on the astral, so I turn around and walk back out through the gate. I look around out front and notice a sand drift nearby. I am amazed in that it appears to be layers of brightly colored sand like you see in fancy bottles. I scooped some up in my hands and examined it. It really was impressive how bright and vivid the layers of sand were.

I took off flying from the temple towards another area off to the right and up on a new plane of gravity (weird). It seemed as if each area was on a slight different dimension and space sort of bent like a tunnel connecting them. This area was like a small city with lots of people and a road. I saw a vehicle that I pictured sort of like an old car. There seemed to be some sort of small event going on, perhaps a farmers market kind of affair. At this point the alarm went off. I hit snooze and DEILD again.
