What it Feels Like to Reconnect With a Past Life

Reconnecting with a past life can bring us unusual realizations, deeper understandings, and sometimes, just a simple experience of gratitude.

A Past Life Experience During Meditation

As part of my BestSelf Journal practice, I’ve committed to waking up a little earlier (only 15 minutes!) so I can meditate for at least five minutes each day.

Meditation has been part of my spiritual practice for many years. I’ve spent a long time sitting on my bum with all sorts of groups, and it has always been a positive experience.

I usually come away feeling more relaxed and connected, and sometimes with messages that come from a mystical or spiritual place.

This morning, though, was quite a surprise.

It was the first day of a five-day prayer practice focused on strengthening my connection with my intuition and spirit guides.

I lit a white candle, said my prayer with intention, and settled into my five-minute meditation.

Unexpectedly – a Powerful Past Life Experience

Almost immediately, I felt transported (in my mind, at least) to a place I’ve never visited in this life, yet it felt deeply familiar.

I was watching myself, and also moving in and out of this “self.” She — or I — was wearing buckskin clothing, with dark hair intricately plaited and woven with cowrie shells. My ears were pierced with bone earrings.

A soft wind moved through the air as I stood at the edge of a clear pond, holding a blowpipe to my mouth. I blew and shot a heron standing in the water. It had blue and black feathers, and I shot it through the heart.

My past life self gathered up many of the feathers, as they were sacred and meaningful, and left the entrails by the pond as an offering to the local animal spirits.

I cooked it using fresh herbs, packing the bird with herbs and hot stones before crisping it over a fire. It cooked very quickly and tasted good — though slightly fishy!

I Asked For More About This Past Life Self

As the vision continued, I asked more about this person.

I was told that she/me was a Sacred Woman, someone others in my community came to for healing. Most of the time, she lived alone, but welcomed visitors who came for help, to offer tributes, or simply for company.

I lived on a peninsula that held the pond. On both sides was the ocean. One side had a sandy beach where I regularly walked and meditated.

It was a beautiful and powerful vision, and it has stayed with me throughout the day. It feels very much like a past-life experience.

This vision helped me understand why I love walking on windy beaches, with the sound of pine trees being blown by the wind.

It’s amazing what a five-minute meditation can bring.

The Benefits of Experiencing a Past Life

While it’s impossible to come to literal conclusions through past life experiencing, using our discernment, we can begin to explore: –

• emotional patterns that no longer serve us
• symbolic stories that shed light on present-day beliefs
• relationship and life challenges
• even phobias.
