  • This edition includes the following editor's introduction: Charles Webster Leadbeater, an eminence of spirituality surrounded by controversy

Originally published in 1895, "The Astral Plane" ( AKA The Astral Plane: Its Scenery, Inhabitants & Phenomena) is a Theosophical Classic by British author Charles Webster Leadbeater describing what the Astral Plane is, its advantages, its dangers, what types of spirits inhabit it, what it is like, and how to get there.

"The Astral Plane" is an engrossing document of the public fascination with the paranormal at the turn of the 20th century. This work explains one aspect of theosophy, the metaphysical doctrine that seeks to find the unified truth buried in all of humanity's religions.

On this incredible guided tour of one of the " various planes of the universe," you'll meet black magicians, vampires, werewolves, elemental essences, fairies, and angels. You'll encounter phenomena including churchyard ghosts, mysterious bell ringing, clairvoyance, second sight, spirit photographs, slate writing, and levitation. And you'll learn why darkness is absolutely required at a séance.

Autorenporträt
Charles Webster Leadbeater (1847–1934) was a renowned figure in the Theosophical Society, an organization focused on spiritual exploration and understanding the mystical aspects of life. His contributions to theosophical literature and esoteric philosophy are considerable, with 'The Astral Plane: Its Scenery, Inhabitants and Phenomena' (1895) being one of his most notable works. In this text, Leadbeater expounds on his insights into the astral dimension, drawing from his claimed clairvoyant experiences and detailing the structures and entities that he believed to exist beyond the physical realm. His literary style is characterized by a blend of earnest inquiry and the didactic exposition of theosophical tenets, aiming to bridge the gap between the material and spiritual worlds. Leadbeater's influence extended beyond his writing, as he held significant positions within the Theosophical Society and mentored other prominent theosophists, such as Annie Besant and Jiddu Krishnamurti. Despite controversies surrounding his psychic claims and personal life, Leadbeater's body of work continues to be a cornerstone for students of theosophy and esoteric studies.
