Past Lives

Do you believe in past lives? I do. I always have, but I'm not sure why. I've often wondered if that feeling of de ja`vu I experience upon meeting someone is because my soul has known their soul in a past life.

Recently, I've gotten quite a few great deals off Living Social and Groupon. One of them was for a hypnosis session. I've been hypnotized before and decided to give it another try to help me stay motivated throughout projects. (I'm always motivated at the beginning of a project, but then it starts to wane.)

During my hypnosis session, for a brief second, I had a flash of the Eyptian pyramids. At the end of my appointment, I made a comment to the hypnotist about this and he said it's not unusual to have brief glimpses of past lives during a session.

He does past life regression, so I made another appointment to explore this further.

I was secretly excited all week about my appointment. I didn't want to tell my husband in case something didn't work right. I asked the hypnotist if he had ever had someone not be able to regress and he said no.

My session started like the others, there was instrumental music playing, the lights were low and he had me stare at a wooden square on a high shelf. Obviously, in order to experience past lives, you have to be extremely relaxed.

Once I got to that point, I experiences 5 different lives. First, I was a teenage gfirl in the 1950's. (I'm really wondering about this one since I was born in 1971.) I'd like to know what happened to her. Second, I was a pilgrim woman, on trial for being a witch. Needless to say, the hypnotist pulled me out of that life before I was burned at the stake. Third, I was a queen in ancient Egypt with a beautiful palace, spa-like baths and lots of servents. I had one sone named David and my husband died young.
The fourth one was when I was a male (approx 12 - 13 years ole) and I was a sheep-herder in Jerusalem.

The last one I experencied was the most unusual and most real. During this one, I did not have an actual body. It was more like an angel. I was standing on a corner in NYC with people hurrying past me and yet no one could see me. I didn't know why, but I felt I was waiting for someone specific.

Then suddenly, a mother and daughter were walking toward me and the little girl looked directly at me. I immediately knew she was the one I was waiting for. She was the one I was there to protect. I followed them home. From the looks of the brownstone or condo, they were quite wealthy. The next thing I knew, there was lots of screaming. The father was drunk and was hurting the mother. The little first was hiding under her bed. Suddenly, it was like I was in 2 places. I could see the mother laying on the floor, but I was also with the little girl. We could hear her father's footsteps getting closer and he came for her. I was shaking and crying I was so scared. The hypnotist brought me out at that point.

I have another session lined up for next Fri night. We're going to explore a couple of these lives further and also find out how they died. Should be interesting.

Stay tuned.
