A New Way to Think About Walk-ins Through Spirituality

You may have heard about walk-ins on your spiritual travels – but what are they, exactly?

What is a Walk-in?

If you’ve ever heard the term walk-in and wondered what it means, this article will help clarify it for you.

People who believe they’ve experienced a walk-in often describe the feeling that another soul has entered their body. It’s almost as if a new consciousness has walked in and taken residence within them.

It can be a disorienting concept at first. You might even wonder, if this happened to me from birth, how would I know?

What a Walk-in is Not

When I give a Soul Star Reading, I sometimes discover that a client is in a walk-in situation – but this is quite rare.

Most clients who have a walk-in arrangement already have a sense of it.

When I bring up the possibility during a reading, it usually clicks immediately.

They often describe feeling that there’s “more than one person” present within them or that they’ve carried an unusual dual awareness for as long as they can remember.

However, there’s another experience that can feel somewhat similar but is actually quite different—something called soul-shifting.

Soul-Shifting vs. Walk-Ins

Soul-shifting occurs when souls from your past lives continue to connect with you in this lifetime. In other words, aspects of your own soul’s journey are still active and influencing your current incarnation.

A walk-in, on the other hand, involves a pre-life agreement between two distinct souls who agree to share or transfer a single incarnation.

In very rare cases, soul-shifting might arise from a present-life agreement, but it’s still not the same as a walk-in.

Walk-ins always come from a prior-life contract, which is a mutual understanding made before incarnation.

In these situations, one soul acts as a “backup” or secondary participant who can take over if the original soul decides it cannot continue the current life path.

This can happen when the soul faces extreme emotional, physical, or spiritual distress and is unable to cope with the circumstances of the incarnation.

Often, if this occurs during the early years of life, the conscious memory of it fades or is completely absent.

Organ Transplants and Energy Imprints – An Unintentional Walk-In?

Years ago, I attended a talk about acupuncture at Wesley Hospital in Wichita, Kansas.

The speaker discussed Five Element Acupuncture and the role of chi and meridians in health.

It was inspiring to see so many doctors and nurses open to learning about this ancient healing system.

In Five Element philosophy, chi, or life force energy, is believed to reside strongly in the kidneys.

The lecturer mentioned that it’s not unusual for organ transplant recipients to experience fragments of their donor’s memories, emotions, or energetic essence.

Several doctors and nurses in the room confirmed that they’d seen this in patients.

You can think of it as an energetic imprint – the donor’s chi or prana carried within the transplanted organ. When transferred to another body, some of that energetic signature may remain active.

However, this is not a walk-in. It’s an energy transfer, not a soul exchange.

If You Believe You May Be Experiencing a Walk-In

First of all, don’t panic. A walk-in is not something to fear. These situations usually happen for a higher purpose, based on a soul-level agreement made long before this lifetime.

If you suspect you may be in a walk-in or soul-sharing situation, here are a few steps that may bring clarity and peace:

• Reflect on your early life experiences. Look for moments of sudden change or disconnection that might point to a deeper energetic shift.
• Notice any blocks or restrictions that continue to appear in your present life – they may carry information about the transition.
• Consider a Soul Star Reading. This type of session can reveal whether you’re in a walk-in or soul-shifting situation and help identify energetic imprints from other souls.

Remember, every soul agreement—even the unusual ones—exists to help you evolve and expand.
