Astral Qualities
They (astral qualities) exactly correspond to the five senses which function in the earthly body plus the sixth (the straight-knowledge, or so-called intuition, which is still rare), and then the seventh (synthesis, or spirituality). The astral feelings exist in the same way as the physical but as their subtle counterparts. It is impossible to separate them; unity manifests its harmony. There is a complete correspondence between the subtle and the physical bodies. Therefore, the axiom “as above, so below” must always be borne in mind.
But indeed, just as the outward feelings are manifested only when there are conditions suitable for them, even so, the inner spiritual abilities are manifested when the astral or spiritual conditions are created on the inner plane. The outer world is only a reflection of the inner one. (LHR I, pp 253-254)
