One of my favorite topics in the Intuitive Realm, as I like to call this magical space of psychic development and spiritual and personal growth, is reincarnation. As an Art History major who grew up on fairy tales and mythology, nothing excites me more than learning about who, what, when, where, and how people were in other incarnations. And one thing that is very fascinating is this:
Your Past Lives aren’t always Chronological.
To make it more complicated, though, there are a lot of cases where people really do remember their most chronologically recent past life. One of my favorite books about this is called Children who Remember Previous Lives by Dr. Ian Stevenson. His research reveals the most fascinating information about children remembering the life just before,in chronological “earth-years” order.
This Little Girl remembered her Children!
One story that really impacted me was that of a little girl in India who swore she was a mother and that she had left her children behind when she died and desperately needed to get back to them. She was distraught! Dr. Stevenson’s team interviewed her, brought her to the village she described, and helped her reunite with her family from that most recent lifetime. This little girl knew facts there was no way she could have known, and everyone was blown away by how it all worked out. And – get this – his book is chock full of true real life stories like this.
One Little Boy had been a Fighter Pilot.
Another story, which actually made it on the news, was about a little boy who swore he had died in WW2 in Japan. His parents became concerned because 1) he had terrible nightmares about dying in a plane crash and 2) he obsessively drew pictures of WWII fighter jets with extreme details that a child his age could not have had any way of knowing. He kept saying that he had been a fighter pilot and that his plane crashed over Iwo Jima. His parents, baffled, sought help from Carol Bowman, a renowned past life therapist, who helped immensely. In the end, all of the pieces clicked together with overwhelming evidence.
To further the idea that past lives can be chronological, in some cultures, when someone dies, they make a mark on the body with red paint, often at the back of the neck or some inconspicuous place. Then, whenever someone new is born, they will examine the body for birthmarks in that same place. That helps them to know it’s the soul of that person born into a new body. 🙂
There is Nothing Hard and True about How it All Works.
All that said, from my personal experience doing past life readings and regressions, there are many people who don’t want to come back at all, or don’t come back for quite a long time in earth years. Think about it: we are all here now, but we do not all remember lifetimes in the decades leading up to our current incarnation.
When I read for people, lifetimes come up that are from thousands of years ago, not the just the 1900’s. What is that all about, then? This is a very important consideration, too: the world was much less populated prior to now. Where are all these souls coming from?
In reading people, I’ve learned that some of us have time outs where we don’t come back for hundreds of years. Some of us may not have been here for thousands of years, and the first thing that comes up in a past life reading is ancient Babylon or Sumeria.
Some people come from other planets and galaxies, too. They’re like field biologists, not from here. They often feel weird here, as if they don’t quite fit in. It can be quite painful and lonely for them to experience life here.
Reincarnation and Your Karma.
Real time, outside of our 3-dimensional reality, isn’t the way it is here on earth. We haven’t figured it out (although I am sure some have and just haven’t told the general populace!).
Whether you last incarnated in the 1960’s or 2000 years ago, chronologically speaking, it could be that that life 2000 years ago is the one that is impacting this one now, and your lessons and karma in this life are tied to THAT lifetime. When people ask me “Where and when were some of my past lifetimes?” the info that comes in can be random…Ireland in the 1800s, Southeast Asia in 80 BC, it goes all over the place and the order doesn’t seem important. It’s not chronological. There is a charge, a certain energy, or unfinished business when it comes to your karma. It’s as if, in some instances, your life right before this isn’t impacting you as much right now, and what you need to work on in this life is the karma you never finished way from back when.
Patterns Keep Happening until You Heal the Karma.
Oftentimes when people ask about how they knew people in this lifetime, in other lifetimes, there seems to be a similar sort of pattern that happens throughout the years; very similar interactions. Meaning, if you’re having complications in a relationship with someone now, chances are, you had similar complications with them in a past lifetime. And think about it; some people might not have been able to be in another life with you, so they’re here now, and you can both complete unfinished business with each other and heal that karma.
This was a long post!! I just find it so fascinating I could talk about it all day long. If there are questions you have on this topic, send me an emailand I’ll work on covering it in a new video/post.
