For one thing, all the laws that we find in operation on various parts of the "Astral plane" are valid. Two things can occupy the same place at the same time .

It will then be best to go back to the beginning, and recapitulate with greater intensity and power of analysis the Oath and the Invocations. And this may be done thrice.
