Hey, check out the brain on Double-Domed Mike! Think of it like the
weird experiments they used to do back in the sixties, when they tried
to get people to 'read' or perceive something merely by it touching
their skin [photoreceptivity of the epidermis or something like that].
That was kinda of the track, but I think that's how astral perception
[according to DDM] works out. [OT again; weird thing about those
experiments, the subjects could only perceive text in contact with their
skin when the lights were on.].
Remember, the perceiver's aura interacts [evenif only minutely]
with that of the perceived, so it would make sense. And if it doesn't,
well, it IS magic, and they haven't figured EVERYTHING out about it yet.
[ they're still puzzling out Unified Field Theory :-]
