Here are some interesting questions/ideas. First, if a mage can not got
through living things in Astral Space, would spirits and other astraly mobile
creatures have the same limitation? If they due, there could be some
interesting ramifications.
We play with the above limitation, and my characters use it as a cheap
way to hide things from astral perception, by putting them in containers
covered with living material. This might even expand to other ways of cheaply
and easily hidign things away from astral sight.
What do you all think?
And in reference to the easy of use of Astral Space, to much of a good
thing can get you killed, just ask my party.

This is true in fact the best place to live, astrally speaking is underground
or in a house 'covered' by moss/icy etc.

We play that they do, but the covering must be *pretty* thick to
provide such"hard" covering. Back when I allowed astral projection,
a house covered in ivy was always a fun search...

Doesn't one of the sourcebooks mention a company doing that? A special type
of vine that blocks the astral crud.
