Correct me if I'm wrong, astral traveling is the same as lucid dreaming, right?
Well, I astral projected in my sleep last night, or perhaps it was a lucid dream, but in it I was in a moor with softly glowing cats. On the other side of the moor, cats with dark auras, with blood sort of dripping down their fur, and onto the ground. It was a lucid dream in the sense that I could control what I was doing, but the cats there told me what to do, and I willingly did it. Then a cat well known in the 'Warrior Cats' series (Spottedleaf) appeared and started walking alongside me. I know that she was telling me things about a great darkness, or perhaps just pointing out herbs, then, when we were on the edge of where the dark cats stood, we saw a small kitten trapped just behind the border of the dark cats. Spottedleaf dropped the herbs she was carrying, and asked the kitten if it wanted to leave. The kitten mewed yes, and somehow I could understand it.
So, what I'm really wondering is, when you're astral projecting, could you conjure up anything? And would it still be there? I want to go back to that place, and talk more. If this is so, I think Spottedleaf might have given me a warning. I worship Bast, the goddess of cats, and I'm more comfortable as a cat than human. Perhaps she was telling me something. Have you noticed any disturbances in the astral realm?

Sorry for my lengthy post.
