2. What exactly are past lives?
Your Soul Has a Unique History of Life Experiences on Earth
Did you know that the majority of you reading this have had not just one, but mostly likely, a handful of life experiences on this planet before your current incarnation? Are you curious how those expressions of your soul are showing up in the here and now?
Let's Take a Deep Dive Into Other Incarnations
Past lives, also known as parallel lives, are expressions of your soul in other physical bodies in previous timelines that have occurred on this planet.
The concept of time is a hard one to really wrap our human minds around. We have constructed time to be a linear concept & therefore, think of events in a chronological order of past - present - future. It's the simplest for our minds to understand, and I tend to consistently think in this manor as well.
However, let's just take a moment to acknowledge that because time and space are infinite, and not confined to our modern definition, there are actually versions of you from the ‘past’ and the ‘future’ currently having experiences AT THIS SPECIFIC TIME.
However, your consciousness is in the here and now of this specific physical body, in this specific time and place. So really, past lives are just parallel lives that are being played out.
Anyways, for a more simplistic conversation, I'll continue talking in terms of past, present and future. Some of us have very clear and vivid memories of some (or even ALL) of our past Earth incarnations. Most don't and that is a-okay!
A very logical reason for not remembering all previous lifetimes is that it would be simply too overwhelming, & not all of it would even apply to what you are here to focus on. There is a soul amnesia that occurs once we are born where a type of veil goes up, and our memories and knowing get ‘fuzzy’.
A lot of newer souls however, are remembering their past history on Earth early on, which is very interesting.
Once we cross over back Home, we all go through a soul review where we observe our current lifetime with our guides, and take in the lessons and experiences we gained. Our souls have this deep desire to continue learning and expanding, and Earth is a school in which we can play out many scenarios. It takes our understanding of themes (such as love, grief, etc.) to a deep level of knowing. Some of these themes are not for the faint of heart, and can take LIFETIMES to play out and really come to terms with.
Because Earth is a polarity planet with free will, we can experience extreme ends of the spectrum when it comes to high frequencies of energy and lower frequencies of energy. You can have lifetimes that are very turbulent, completely peaceful or both.
Accessing your past lives can come in the form of:
soul memory you obtain naturally (filled with emotion, dropped into your consciousness mind in segments over time, feels very familiar)
channeled through your Spirit Team guides and Higher Self from the Akashic Records
regressions
astrological chart readings
Our souls can carry the memory of certain lifetimes even after our soul review.
This can show up as:
unwanted or negative patterns/behaviours (eg. relationship dynamics)
recurring limiting beliefs when you consciously feel different (eg. money blocks and expanding career potential)
fears or phobias that are unpredictable and have no known root cause
feeling drawn towards certain geographical locations, people, or hobbies/skills you wish to explore
