We all have our own ideas about death and the afterlife. Some folks believe in heaven and hell, some don't, while still others believe we're destined to roam the earth as ghostly spirits, etc. Sure, I believe in ghosts, and I've seen plenty - but none of them were wearing designer sheets or moaning any more than most of the people I knew in college.
Reincarnation is an essential part of my belief system, but not the "Hollywood" kind of reincarnation that's so popular right now. I believe that we live many times, hopefully learning more each time, until we finally get it right, settle up our karmic debt, and move on. I also believe that we're involved with many of the same souls each time. Have you ever met someone for the first time, and felt a strong (perhaps bizarre) feeling as you reached to shake his/her hand? Yep, that's it. You're recognizing that person from your last time around. {Note: I often call it "the last time" or "last time around" because saying "your last life" sounds ghastly and trite, thanks to film and far too many would-be experts.}
The souls you're involved with in every life have different names in various cultures. I call them Anchors for the obvious reason that they "anchor" us in each life, helping us build a physical and emotional foundation for the life we're in, regardless of how the last time turned out. Anchor souls play different roles in different lives; i.e., the soul that was your mother in one life may be your best friend in another, your nephew in another, your wife in another, etc. Souls have no gender - that's the stuff of physical bodies.
Time's up! My obligations in my real life this time are howling for me, so that's all for now. More to come later!
