Your soul / astral body comes out of your body when you die. In very simple terms the soul leaves the body upon death. There is no longer any reason to remain in the body. We usually don't realize it but we often leave our body and travel while the body rests in a 'sleep stage' while we are asleep. Leaving our body is much like that. The lack of memory of our dreams prohibits the majority of people from recalling the experience(s) of leaving the body. When the memory is accessed of the 'soul travel' experience it is often referred to as a vivid recall of a dream, or associated with a feeling of being elsewhere to a point where it seemed so real. In addition, it happens while the body rests in the REM stage or in mediation.

Our souls can easily walk out of our body at free will when we die, and at other times that we often don't recall; like with the dreaming mind stage. For example, people say stuff like, "I don't dream" when it is that they are just not remembering what occurred in the REM stage or while they left their body that night. The mind can be trained to astral projection at will. It is referred to as: out of body experience, astral traveling, or soul travel.

Where the soul chooses to go once the body dies is totally up to the individual person. When the body dies that houses that particular soul there is a light that appears. It shines forth and beings will come forward to assist the loved one home. The spirits that come to get the dying or deceased person could be angels, loved ones that have previously died, or even loved ones that haven't incarnated in this lifetime with you but might have in prior lifetimes, or are just very close companions on the other side - back home.

You have to remember that you are suffering from amnesia right now in order to experience your life as it is right now. That being in solid form, and as a human being having an earthly experience. Your real self isn't what you are experiencing right now with what you are going through in your life today. You are much more than that, and are here for a reason; to learn, and shine forth the best you can.

You are just adding to the pool of change, one drop at a time. What you do makes an effect on the mass minds one drop at a time. Just like with a drop of water that lands in a body of water and causes a ripple effect; so too are we, and by so doing we actually are affecting the world by our consciousness and other factors all play a role in the bigger picture of our existence
