Who were you in a past life?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-11 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Imagine I'm a cheap psychic. I'm about to tell you who you were in a previous incarnation (i.e. Cleopatra, George Washington, etc.) What historical figure do you wish I'd say? Who do you "relate" to?

Someone who was pretty smart, mostly happy, read a lot, and tried hard never to hurt anyone. So probably not anyone who made it as a historical figure.

I asked my fiancé who I was in a past life and he said Cleopatra or "an evil Joan of Arc."

I don't even know what it means, being an incarnation. Does it mean that I share their personality? If not, then what it is that makes me the same person as them? The notion of reincarnating plunges me into confusion.

Re-incarnation, as I understand it as a layperson, means you are a reborn soul. Your soul may have been someone else in a former life - a soldier in Vietnam, a child who died during the Great Plague, a Mayan priest.

Sometimes, you might have dreams that feel more like memories. If you have a 'past life regression', you might wind up with a great deal of information that you're not sure how you knew; experiencing things that you never experienced yourself in your own life.

I hope that helps.

I wish I could be the reincarnation of one of those super cool lady pirates, but in reality I'm probably just the reincarnation of some scribe or something, someone that got lost to history because realistically I wasn't that important. |D

(Which I'm okay with; I don't know if I could have been a Joan of Arc like character, you know? Maybe if they had reporters back then the same way we do, I could be the reincarnation of one of those that ran around and followed her, or someone like her, but...)

..I actually really like Cleopatra, even though that's like the cheap psychic go to answer, isn't it? I would so love to be Cleopatra's reincarnation!

Dunno if I relate to her but I've always been fond of Eleanor of Aquitaine.

Can we be in incarnation of her as played by Katherine Hepburn in The Lion in Winter?

Someone poor. Probably unimportant. Lived a life as a hermit on the edge of town.

Or Rasputin. Whateves.

I wanna be some kind of escaped convict or important elder. Oh! Maybe the matriarchal head of some tribe of Homo heidelbergensis in Italy (600thousand years ago)

I'd be game for pretty much any female pirate.

But I'd probably be someone who'd never make history.

Probably someone who was decent, but unpopular, and criticized, and ineffective, and now mostly forgotten.

Re: Who were you in a past life?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-11 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
According to my spiritual worldview, souls disintegrate at death and the pieces recombine with others when new beings are born, so in terms of that kind of reincarnation - rather than whole-being reincarnation - I believe my soul includes a significant piece of a specific historical person. But I don't generally mention it to anyone.

Sorry, I don't think you were asking for seriousness...

I bet I was probably Tom Sawyer. Whoever the actual historical type of person that is.

...Can't think of any off the top of my head that I'm not actually related to. (Amelia Earhart was like a great-aunt's cousin or something...) The people I know who fancy themselves psychics always tell me I was a very powerful pagan priestess and/or fey creature, and that would explain rather a lot (despite the fact that in this incarnation I'm a Christian) and I'm okay with it.

As long as it was someone who was completely fierce, it's all good!

Someone who was generally laid back and pleasant most of the time, but could be really freaking stubborn about certain, sometimes silly things. And loved to read.

Emperor Norton, probably. He's my favorite historical figure of all time, and I honestly admire him deeply.

I would have liked to say "Chiune Sugihara" but I know I'm nowhere near that selfless, although I wish I were.

I'd probably be either Eleanor Roosevelt or Cleopatra. Everyone else I can think of is either fictional or still alive.

Emily Dickinson. Rarely leaving the house, surrounding herself with books, most of her friendships were carried out via writing, quietly making her own creative works without anyone really knowing. Definitely Emily Dickinson.

my best friend thinks I was Oscar Wilde in a past life. he's one of my fave writers so i take it as a compliment.
