- such 'visions' are always close to impossible for someone else to make heads-or-tails of since we will likely project all sorts of our own 'stuff' into what, in this case, you describe
- having said that.............
- has your mother passed?? Did she meditate or have astral gifts?
- as for the 'real key' in the second meditation: was the laughter of a 'derisive' or slightly sarcastic nature?? Your concern if they were laughing at you suggests this mght be so
- yes, when you mother said, during the first meditation, that you had found the key I do not feel she was referring to any sort of form-based key - and you do not mention having the key that apparently now shows up in the second meditation
- it is possible that the second meditation is somehow trying to help correct some misconceptions you may have about the first meditation
- if you have a meditation diary then further such 'visions' can be recorded to be sifted thru later for threads and clues
- and, yes, sometimes it is tricky to differentiate a true astral excursion and an active imagination event
(the former often requiring mindful intention and the latter not)
- in the case of an 'active imagination event' it is possible to project aspects of our Unconscious as we do in dreams
- thus your mother may merely represent an aspect of yourself - as do the other characters in the second vision
- the appearance of christ could be interpretted as a way to make the vision experience compatable with your christian beliefs (there are, afterall, christians and other who take 'visions' as 'evil')
- hope this helps
