We can continue the metaphor of the atom and the 118 possible electrons that circle it. Each of the 118 fragments of awareness gives a specific sensory detail that adds richness to our perception of the world.
These electrons form rings or shells around the nucleus of the atom. The two first electrons form the first ring or shell and create the elements hydrogen and helium. Using this as a metaphor for soul development the first bit of awareness possible is the hydrogen awareness.
One bit of awareness is unity and only manifests to us as the spiritual experience of unity and light. You can't do much with one bit of awareness because it has nothing to work with. The addition of the second bit of awareness or helium awareness creates archetypal reality.
The two bits of awareness work together like black and white to create images and three dimensional forms. These bits of awareness create the highest astral world and the highest astral body. This is the source of the soul.
The human astral body at this level is human shaped with no distinct features much like a balloon. It is just light in human form. Occultists call this the "body of Light". It is formed from the energies of the crown chakra and forms a ball of light or halo about two inches above the top of the head.
Two bits of awareness is all that the first inner shell can hold. It is complete and seals itself against all the rest. This barrier is what creates the "Great Abyss" of occult literature.
When integrated into the personality these two bits of awareness form the "body of light" and give "Christ Consciousness" or "Cosmic Consciousness". This is also the level of unity and the resolution of paradox where all things come together in a form of self evident truth.
These two bits of awareness are Spiritual energies and Spiritual forms of consciousness that can be developed. There is also an astral world created out of these elements that exists in the outer atmosphere of the earth. This astral world is archetypal and consists of magnetic flux lines or tubes that electrons travel through. The human "Body of Light" can also travel through these tubes.
