The Role of Spirit Guides and Angels During Astral Travel
It could be expected, that we could travel all by ourselves without any real trouble. When we physically die and "cross-over" we can do this freely. However when we are still in a physical body, we are obligated to this world. During our trips, we are watched carefully to make sure we return to our bodies and that we do not travel where we are not prepared to go. Our personal spirit guides and angels join us on our trips. They do not always make themselves known to us, they usually passively view us, and intervene if necessary. Our guides also can be the primary focus of our soul trip. Sometimes, there is a need for us to speak more directly with them. They may advise us about our charts, life themes, dilemmas and such. They can return us to our bodies should we lose track of our obligation to return as well. It is one of their main duties. They watch us during both our physical and non-physical travels. Angels specifically, prevent and protect the soul from encountering negative entities in the lower dimensions, which can be travelled by ourselves (unwittingly I am told). Angels keep us from harms way and also guard our spirit guides as well.
Below are some suggestions on how to better recognize an astral trip from regular "dreams". Remember, astral travel happens during sleep but is not an actual "dream". Rather its a state of being and experience which is facilitated most often by sleep.
Examine Your "Dreams" Carefully
Notice the Details: Was your dream so vivid that you could even touch, taste and smell it? Did you see extremely beautiful environments and vibrant colours not found in this world? Was the light in the room or environment soft and pinkish/yellow, yet there was no visible source of light? If so, you may have travelled to another place. It could of been The Other Side (AKA: heaven), or it could of been any number of dimensions available for us to travel. You may have visited any place here on our earth level as well. Examine your dreams carefully.

Below is a quick list of things that indicate that a "dream" you had, may not have been just a dream afterall.
1.You could touch, taste and smell your environment during the experience.

2. You received information that you had no prior knowledge of our is later proven be be true.

3. You meet up with deceased friends and family and you experience peace, joy and or resolution from it.

4. Your environments are almost in technicolour and are extremely detailed.

5. Events within the experience are sequential or logically follow a natural progression. It is unlike the usual jumbled and bizarre dream experience.

6. You feel touched by God or other beings. You view tall, androgenous looking beings who are silent yet peaceful (angels).

7. You visit a Romanesque-type building with many books and scrolls.(Hall of Records)

8. You speak another language clearly and with ease but do not speak this language in your present lifetime.

9. You experience being a dark, grey looking place with sad looking souls. (a lower, earthbound dimension)

10. You wake from this dream with a renewed sense of hope, a great idea or a solution to a problem.

11. You are talking to people you don't recognize from your life now, but yet you feel a kinship or closeness to them. (friends from The Other Side or Spirit Guides)

12. You keep revisiting the same locations, people (etc) and the experience is consistent each time. (Note: Do not confuse this with a reoccuring nightmare-type dream, rather you are having the same, detailed, sequential experience and it feels comfortable and familiar each time.)
