Is the astral plane our home?

Why do we not realise the astral's signals?

Because you have not yet advanced to that point of thought.

Is it meant that we should know?

Yes, but fear keeps you from knowing the truth.

But do we advance more quickly if we know the reality of the astral?

Yes—life is a test. You would advance more rapidly if you knew the astral existed. You would go through your tests and you would do them correctly because some would have that noble and trained instinct—others would do their lessons because they feared the darkness, for darkness is real death. Some are afraid of death because they fear a judgment follows. If you knew of the astral and that there was no death, only the darkness of space between the astral and the earth planes in which we would have to stay until we worked out of our degradation, you would strive your best to pass directly through that and into light. 

Hence, you would try to do what is right on the earth. You should be enlightened—there should be knowledge of the Astral's Existence. It is for the best.
