1) Thank you, that does help!

2) Ah, okay, got it. Hmm, I suppose on the one hand, you might say that most of our experience of all of the planes is, almost by definition, conscious, but on the other hand, it does seem that activity on each plane would map more to one of those categories than the others. Off the top of my head, and at a guess, I'd say that most of what happens on the physical happens in the unconscious, with occasional peeps up into subconscious and conscious, most etheric action is subconscious, again, with peeks up into conscious, the astral is likely split pretty evenly between subconscious and conscious, while maybe enabling some of our brushing against super-conscious, and the mental plane (and above) would mostly be happening at a super-conscious level, with occasional dips down (or occasional glimpses up from our consciousness). Of course, going back to that first point, much of occult practice seems to be about how to bring activity of more of the planes into regular conscious awareness, with a goal toward giving better access to the super-conscious.

But as I said, I haven't thought very deeply or long on it yet, so that's another interesting angle!

Jeff
