Is it possible to find out who I was in the past? Look!

The question “who was I in the past?” is usually quite common for people who believe in soul reincarnation. You’re one of them?

But how do you find this out? Well, there are several ways, whether with therapies or oracles that allow someone to access some memories that have been stored in the unconscious and lead to discovering details of past lives.

Interested in learning how to find out who you were? So keep reading, because in this article we explain the methods for this and what reincarnation is and how memories of other incarnations can affect your present!

Are there even past lives?

According to various beliefs around the world, such as Buddhism and Spiritualism, there are past lives. “But why does this happen?”, you might ask yourself.

This is because of the idea that, as the human soul is something eternal, it can return to the earth plane several times, in a process known as reincarnation.

Because of this, we can be reborn repeatedly, at different times and places.

All the memories that we have accumulated during these lives are stored in our unconscious and can be accessed, with help, in the present time.

Children and people with strong mediumship are usually able to do this more easily, through dreams or déjà vus. However, anyone can find out who it was in the past.

What is reincarnation in spiritism?

As we explained earlier, the soul can reincarnate and various religions and philosophies believe in this concept. One of them is spiritism.

According to the Spirits’ Book, written by Allan Kardec, reincarnation means the survival of the soul after death. He also says that it is even possible for us to manifest characteristics of other lives in the present.

“(…) The Spirit being the same, in the different incarnations, its manifestations can have, from one to the other, certain similarities.”, it is said in an excerpt of the work.

The objective of this process, for spiritism, is to help this spirit to achieve evolution by experiencing and accumulating knowledge through the various lives.

Even the religion cites that reincarnation is done consciously and that the person himself chooses the details of his new life, all in search of the evolution of consciousness by going through trials to atone for the karma accumulated by actions in the past.

How does who I was in the past affect the present?

“If there were past lives, can they affect my present?” You may have been left with this question as you learned more about reincarnation and the answer is yes. Both positively and negatively.

What happens is that memories that have been imprinted in the unconscious can affect all of your life choices. Furthermore, these memories can come in the form of dreams – or nightmares –, déjà vus, intuitions, insecurities and even unexplained traumas and phobias.

All this can directly influence your day to day. For example, a person who is incapable of trusting others may have suffered a major betrayal in another incarnation and this has remained in them, even if they do not have clear memories of that event.

For this reason, finding out who you were in past lives is considered a way to get rid of trauma and karma and thus be able to live fully in the present.

How do I know if I have past life memories?

The most reliable way to verify past-life memories is by making an appointment with a mediumship specialist. This is because this type of professional will know what to look for and, above all, how to access what needs to be seen.

However, there are some signs that many people experience that may not directly connect with past memories, such as:

• traumas and phobias with no clear origin, such as fear of flying without ever having been on a plane;
• recurrent déjà vu;
• dreams and nightmares about the same thing;
• fears and insecurities;
• strong attraction to a historical event, culture or time;
• birthmarks.

Reincarnation: how to know who I was in the past life?

“Okay, but how do I know about my past in other lives?” Well, as we mentioned earlier, there are different methods to access the memories left over from past incarnations.

One of the most popular, and widespread, is regression. This is a type of therapy, which should only be done with professional accompaniment and uses various techniques to release memories and make you discover more about your past.

Some of the techniques are:

• shamanism;
• hypnosis;
• magnetic passes;
• Induced Progressive Relaxation;
• chakras;
• via images.

It is necessary to point out that there is no one better than the other, see? The technique varies according to the professional and, mainly, with which the patient feels most comfortable.

Another way to find out who you were in the past is by consulting oracles, such as the gypsy deck and the tarot.

Is there any risk in the techniques for learning about past lives?

“Is there any risk in trying to find out who I was in the past by myself?” Yes, so it is highly recommended that you look for a serious professional to guide you on this journey of self-knowledge.

Just to exemplify, some of the risks of trying to do a regression without the necessary care are:

• of being “stuck” in memories of the past, preventing you from living in the present and, thus, hindering your evolution process;
• physical problems, such as cardiovascular, in those who already have a history of heart disease;
• attract bad energies or obsessive spirits;
• of accessing very traumatic memories, without being prepared, and worsening the emotional and spiritual situation.

With the help of an expert, all these risks that we mentioned become practically null. This is because he is prepared to know who can do therapy, when to do it and, especially, what to access.
