What feels natural and more possible for each temperament has to do where one's point of inner certainty lies. For me it definitely does not lie in the physical, since I have always felt the physical life like a weird dream I cannot trust, and which is not actually "mine" to participate fully. The astral realm of subjective pondering, on the other hand, is something I can depend, and whose laws I can – to a certain point – understand and feel as my actual place of being.
I too feel like the physical life is a weird dream, but it's a dream I still experience fully and heavily, like a nightmare of being drowned in a murky substance. It's like being aware that you're dreaming but still being unable to wake up. So I feel as if it's a combination of the physical and the astral challenge.
