So it's reared its ugly head - probably not for the first time.

If a magicial is astrally percieving and he/she is wearing goggles/glasses/contact lenses - is their vision blocked? After all it is a physical object.

Can you see through windows on the astral? I'm pretty certain you cannot.

Hopefully I'm wrong but if I'm not how does wearing specs effect a dual natured being like a shapeshifter?
