Past Life Regression Session
I did a past life regression with Rethnea on Sunday. It was very cool. It’s very similar to visual (intuitive) meditation except you’re answering questions about yourself and not someone else. You can check Rethnea out on her blog. She’s warmth, generosity and peace all wrapped in one delightful package.
I saw glimpses of 3 past lives.
In the first I was a cavewoman. My cave was on the side of a mountain next to an ocean. It had and entrance made of 2 long stones (top to bottom) standing on either side of the entrance and one on the top like a hood. There was an ocean at the bottom and when I went up to it to look at myself I saw I had an average build, long dark hair, bare feet, brown clothes and was kind of dirty. Then we fast forwarded to dinner time where I saw I had a husband (a big burly guy) and 2 young children, a boy and a girl. We often ate meat. I wasn’t very satisfied with my life and seemed to just be getting by, settling for how things were although I wasn’t really happy. We fast forwarded to the next significant thing that happened where I saw that I was chased down and murdered by a man, being stabbed in the back with a sharp object. I wasn’t clear on why.
In the second life I was a princess in either India or Egypt – at first I thought Egypt but once I was there I thought it was India. I first saw myself walking through a bustling village and people stopped when they saw me. I felt a lot of love and compassion for them. I was maybe in my late teens and had long dark hair pulled back wearing a headpiece that come to a point between my eyebrows and a purple garment that wrapped around me. We fast forwarded and I next saw myself living in an ornate palace with my father and younger sister (who I believe was my older sister Jen) – it seemed somewhat solemn in the scene I saw. (This is extra interesting because afterward when I shared this with my sister she said she’s been told be two different psychics that she has been a Indian princess and a Egyptian priestess in past lives! They say you frequently reincarnate with the same group of souls although they may exist in a different relationship to you.) There may have been more family but those are all I saw. I had the sense that my mother had passed away after my sister was born. Fast forwarding, I was forced to marry (or be with – I wasn’t clear on whether or not we were actually married or not) a man I didn’t know or love who was very aggressive and cruel and I was really despondent about it. I had 2 children with him, both girls. He abused me and treated both me & the girls with indifference most of the time. When the girls were older he sexually abused them. I found this out when I noticed they seemed upset and quiet – slouched over a bit. I tried to run away with them but didn’t escape and was brought back. I was raped and strangled to death by him.
What I learned from this was that in both these lives, I settled for relationships as they were, even though I was unhappy with them. I just got by and put up with it. I learned that if I’m unhappy in a situation to not just stay there and to follow my instincts and my heart. To not worry about the rules and whatever circumstances seem to be present, but instead to pursue whatever my heart yearns for and have conviction in that it will work out. But also to create joy or satisfaction no matter what my circumstances are. Each lifetime ended violently which I wasn’t asked to look into but I think it speaks to why I’ve always been afraid of men taking advantage of me and not trusting them.
In the third, which I had just a brief look into it, I was a young boy (maybe 6 or 7) being picked on by other children and they threw sand in my face. This was what I saw when we looked into the root of my habitually itchy eyes. The lesson to learn here is that I let myself be affected by what others thought of me too much when it really only matters what I think of me and that I know myself as great.
Messages from my highest self:
I learned that I procrastinate in order to avoid feeling like I’ll be stuck with something if it works out. Which is a waste of energy because I can always change things and take on new ventures whenever I want if I want. I spend so much time avoiding doing things that would move me forward because I fear that I’ll end up stuck in a situation that feels like I’m settling or putting up with however things are. Basically I straddle between the ‘settling for’ and the ‘never settle for’ by sticking with things I know no longer serve me for longer than necessary while on the other hand (and sometimes simultaneously) jumping from idea to idea, venture to venture, relationship to relationship in order to not get trapped. What I see I need to take on now is finding middle ground where I can commit to something and allow it to continually evolve into whatever serves me best.
I need to learn trust and compassion. I need to listen to and follow my intuition instead of ignoring it. Noticing when I have doubt or a nagging that something isn’t right for me and actually taking it seriously. At the same time I need to learn to trust both myself and others.
Once persistent message was that everything I need is within. Love is within. I need to love myself completely and fully and allow it to flow forth from me to others. I also need to learn patience. I need to love and have compassion for people no matter what because everyone else is the same as me.
I have to remind myself of why I fell in love with things in the first place and to CHOOSE joy as my predominate experience. I got that I should meditate every morning when I wake up to practice being with stillness and that I could also meditate on a particular way of being like peace or joy or love. (This will help me sleep better as I sometimes still have trouble as would having more regular sleeping hours). I also got that I should write my book every day for at least an hour.
It was definitely a cool experience. I’ll have to let you know what comes of it. We’re doing past life regression work in my intuitive tools class with Deganit Nuur this month so I’ll be able to relay what others see as well!

That’s really interesting. While I probably wouldn’t actually do this, I’ve always thought that my best friend and I were sisters in a past life. And when I went to Scotland in 2005, I felt like I’d been there before.
And listening to your intuition is a good rule to follow. I ignored mine once (my ex-fiance) and almost led myself to heartbreak. I would never have had the baby boy I always knew I’d have—for years I just KNEW I’d have a boy if I only had one child.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s to follow your heart and don’t settle. It’s better to be alone than to settle for less than an equal partner. Though I have faith that you’ll find someone who treats you like a princess.
That’s so awesome! I’m sure you were sisters in a past life then and have lived in Scotland before. It’s your intuition speaking to you. Jen had me read a book Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian Weiss that is beyond fascinating and all about past life regression which is what got me interested in doing it for myself.
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m sure I’ll find someone great too. Just waiting for him to show up!
[...] in 1866. (Which was also incredibly interesting because if you check out my post on my recent past life regression session, my cousin commented on it saying when she went to Scotland in 2005 she had a really strong feeling [...]
I had a past life regression. I only remember one clearly – I was a boy in Belfast that lived in a small home and I could see a cane hanging on the wall. I worked in a large place that pressed or did something with sheets. I wore shorts that were overalls and I died young.
I was told that this is my first time living past 30 and that I had died of starvation in the past.
I need to check if I documented this experience. It was interesting.
Carolyn – how interesting! How did you do the regression? Were you hypnotized? Did you learn any lessons from that lifetime or did it change anything for you in the current time?
@Marco I know what your saying there . In todays economy its difficult to find a company to work for that pays good enough to live on and is consistent. I have found that if you just work hard and are consistent you can succeed. Look at the poster of this article, they are oviously hard working and have just been consistent over time and are now enjoying at least what would appear as somewhat of a success. I would encourage everyone to just keep hustling and moving forward.
Hey compañero, realmente tenido gusto este poste. Can’ t parece conseguirlo para dar formato a la derecha en Internet Explorer, se dobla todo para arriba, pero no trabaja muy bien en Firefox tan ninguna preocupación.

This is a really cool website. Are you using WordPress as your blogging platform? I ask that because your website looks a little different…
@Rhonda – Thanks so much! How did you find the site?
I am using wordpress as my blogging platform. I love it because it’s really easy to use and not too complicated to figure out how to create the site as you want it.
Strange this post is totaly unrelated to what I was searching google for, but it was listed on the first page. I guess your doing something right if Google likes you enough to put you on the first page of a non related search.
