About: The astral plane

Dear Dr. Grey-Summers and Mr. Haller,

I have found in the past few weeks that what I saw on the astral plane still haunts me. I would like to learn more if that is possible, even if I might not yet be able to ghost out much. Would there be any theoretical materials available?

And I don't know if this would be possible soon, but I would like to work on this aspect of my powers practically as well. The longer I will wait, the scarier the idea becomes, i think.

Thanking in advance,
Hope Abbott.

Re: The astral plane

Unfortunately I can't think of any articles that have what you're interested in. Psi is very difficult to empirically document, especially since each psi's experience can be highly subjective. There may be a blog or two out there, but I doubt you'd find many peer reviewed documents about anything other than the genetics.

Experiences tend to be shared person to person, so your best bet is probably to speak to the professor. He's had the most experience with the astral plane by far. I and Dr. Grey-Summers (if she has time) might also be able to share some notes, although you should know that everything we say will be coming from the perspective of telepaths. Your powers are in that area, but they differ enough that what holds for us might not necessarily hold for you.

RE: The astral plane

Sadly,I have to agree with Mr. Haller. Beyond myself, Dr. McCoy, and a handful of people there isn't much out there. The scientific community tends to lean toward the physical manifestations of mutants in study, if they study mutation at all. If they cannot make a quantifiable analysis they tend to shy away from it. It's still an emerging science, rudimentary at best to nearly non-existent.

I can tell you what observations I have discovered from experience, however. And I second Mr. Haller's suggestion to speak to the Professor. He is the foremost expert on the Astral Plane that I know of. It's perfectly normal to be afraid. I was too at your age. We'll work through it together.
