Less than a couple months ago, my best friend took me to see a psychic briefly for my birthday. She says some stuff, blah blah, and after a little bit the subject of past lives come up- one I am completely fascinated by- and I'm so suprised that she is able to read them. I excitedly ask, "Who was I in a past life?" only to hear the blunt reply, "You don't have one." So I ask again, to make sure she has heard me correctly, (what a Ram I am...) and she tells me that I don't have a past life, and that it is a good thing. For some reason, this completely broke me. Of course I didn't let her know this, but for some reason I had always thought of myself to have existed before.. atleast once.... perhaps it is due to my moon being in Cancer, and have always felt connected to history, the past, etc...
I just felt that it was impossible for me to be "new." How could every relationship that I have had in this life, all the people I've felt electricity with and felt I MUST have known before, how can all of this be from new, scratch, coincidence? I know it isn't coincidence and everything happens for a reason, but that's the way I felt leaving her office.
She knew it was my birthday... could she have immediately assumed I was "new" by knowing I was an Aries? Now I find myself wondering, is there validity to her claim, and I am nowhere as remotely evolved as I has thought? Linda Goodmans observation that those with Scorpio rising are evolved comes to mind, but now I wonder it it's just me being hopeful, so to speak.
How true is it, how "by the book" are we in matters of being reincarnated into certain signs in their order?
And lastly, I'm just wondering, for my own little peace of mind, if anyone knows what aspects to look for in one's chart to provide insight on past lives. Or in any way could take a quick look and interpret this for me?
Much thanks to all who've taken the time,

-Lost Ram

The truth is, firemeetswater, that no one really knows for sure.

My cousin is on the aries/taurus cusp. She was told this is her first life also.


This is my 9th they told me.


For her first life, she's doing pretty good so far.

Do you feel, in your core, that you have had a past life?
You feel this to be the truth, and without this truth, you feel diminished somehow?

Another question to you is... if you went to a doctor,*briefly* and that doctor told you based upon your symptoms ( though she knows nothing about your history, your passions, your 'you-ness') she thinks you are a tomato.
Does that make this an accurate statement?
Are you really a tomato?

I just mean... even Sylvia Browne, who I see as a legit psychic and someone who says profound truths.. even she isn't accurate 100% of the time.

You are not a tomato.

Maybe you were already an old soul but just chose to be reincarnated now?


My cousin also looks like an old soul to me.`

Yeah I agree with that. I mean, look at it this way: As a new soul, perhaps you'd be closer to that spiritual plane -it's fresh in your memory, so your whole outlook on the physical one is evolved. As far as connecting with people in this life, you probably do remember them. Maybe over there (wherever that is...) they were all like. "Come ON! Come with us this time, it's AWESOME, you'll love it!!! I promise we'll meet up, ok?" and you were like, "well.... ok!"
Assuming the psychic was right, of course.

Hey FireWater

It's absolute total bull.. I don't trust pyshics and would never go to one. One of my friends, a gemini went to a psychic and afterwards she was soooo different it was scary. She completely changed and wouldn't tell anyone what the psychic told her. They lie and they're not even good at it - most of'em I really can't stand ppl getting money for so called predictions..

I mean, look at it this way.. if i was enlightened enough and attuned enough to be a psychic.. If I had a gift.. then you'd think I'd be enlightened enough to not make an "easy" living out of it , and make people pay for it. I honestly, maybe it's personal choice but if I really was in that position I wouldn't just tell people their future or their past anyways.. unless it's something they reallllly need to know, something I can help them with. If I met someone and thought "this person is a new soul they had no past lives'.. would I tell them that? no why would I .. it doesn't help them in any way to know that.. if anything it'd make them feel bad or unenlightened or something along those lines..

I think when someone becomes a psychic by job they are either crooks and have no idea what they're on about... or (and this is deffinetly a small minority) or they really can predict and they really do have a gift .. but they've chosen to use it in a negative way .. IMO

i may have an answer.
Aries sun cancer moon, eh?
A square, creating tension.
I have the same.
I would interpret this as something like agressive emotion.
A sometimes difficult, but on the positive side it could be useful.
Make the most of it.
Sometimes i feel like im new, somtimes i dont, but i do feel like i am here for a special purpose, not that it was my oblligation to do so, I came here under a certain vibration of love, i dont care if im new or not.
Maybe the psychic was a sagittarius and just blurted out an answer, trying to solve the riddle as to why you seem so different.

FireMeetsWater

I do work as a "psychic" and it is a job I have chosen to do. I don't know if this is your first life or not, but the only person that truly knows is yourself. What was it that led you to her in the first place? Besides it being your birthday. I believe there is a reason for everything, as i believe there is a reason she told you that. Perhaps this experience is guiding you to look within yourself. We all carry certain negative experience that throw us down a road to self discovery this may be it for you. Also, what i see in this as someone else stated, ask yourself, what she said, does it truly resonate with you? Find yourself in this and your own voice. When you first felt her energy and saw her, did you have a feeling about her? Did you follow your instinct? I had a similiar experience, but only with an Astrologer. Who told me something that i couldnt erase. I have refused to go to another one, until recently. But that journey that i took because of what that astrologer said has been amazing. It has taken me on a ride within myself and the learning never stops.So after all my babling, the point i am trying to make, look within this experience and see what is there for you to see. Look past the fear.

'and I am nowhere as remotely evolved as I has thought?'

well,i have no idea as to how true or not true it is, but just think.. if you choose to believe it, knowing you're a 'new soul' is a great gift! A totally clean slate... and no bad repercussions from your last life. You can make yourself start off on the right foot... Good luck

FireMeetsWater,

You are your own best psychic! If you have connections of any sort, you probably know about them already.

Trust me - I'm giving you this advice for free

FireMeetsWater! Hello!
You are not a new soul, not based on my contacts and information. I believe no one is! The "psychic" may have been practising what many do....telling you the so called nice things, the things that sound all mystical and tantalizingly cryptic. Here are some of my quick veiws...I do not want to hijack this thread here at Astrology....
A. because they really did not have a clue. B. they were not supposed to read you, but tried to anyhow(did they take money for this?) C. You are not supposed to hear it from another, but hear/feel/know it yourself. D. and it appears to me that you DO ALREADY on some level know that you HAVE lived before! Let it come to YOU!
And yes, there has/is/are, many fasinating and revealing posts at the "Who Are You" thread in Universal Codes. Please go see. I believe alot of your questions will be answered. I posted a brief, "how to" yesterday there. See you there!
Love
Fayte
(PS.My user name is not just some hokey rendition of FATE....I have posted as to why I adopted it...people often think it is only an alternate spelling of fate, just to sound mysterious etc.)

I agree Fayte,

no new souls (a few s)
Your ascendant sign tells how far along reincarnation wise you are to acheiving heaven/nirvana.

I borrowed this from the free astro forum

Allegory of Zodiac Signs

And it was morning as God stood before his twelve children and into each of them planted the seed of human life. One by one each child stepped forward to receive his appointed gift.

To you Aries I give my seed first that you might have the honor of planting it. That for every seed you plant one million more will multiply in your hand. You will not have time to see the seed grow for everything you plant creates more that must be planted. You will be the first to penetrate the soil of men's minds with My Idea. But it is not your job to nourish the Idea nor to question it. Your life is action and the only action I ascribe to you is to begin making men aware of My Creation. For your good work I give you the virtue of Self Esteem.

To you Taurus I give the power to build the seed into substance. Your job is a great one requiring patience for you must finish all that has been started or the seeds will be wasted to the wind. You are not to question nor change your mind in the middle nor to depend on others for what I ask you to do. For this I give you the gift of Strength. Use it wisely.

To you Gemini I give the questions without answers so that you may bring to all an understanding of what man sees around him. You will never know why men speak or listen, but in your quest for the answer you will find my gift of Knowledge.

To you Cancer I ascribe the task of teaching men about emotion. My Idea is for you to cause them laughter and tears so that all they see and think develops fullness from inside. For this I give you the gift of Family, that your fullness may multiply.

To you Leo I give the job of displaying My Creation in all its brilliance to the world. But you must be careful of pride and always remember that it is My Creation, not yours. For if you forget this men will scorn you. There is much joy in the job I give to you if you but do it well. for this you are to have the gift of Honor.

To you Virgo I ask for an examination of all man has done with My Creation. You are to scrutinize his ways sharply and remind him of his errors so that through you My Creation may be perfected. For doing this I give you the gift of Purity of Thought.

To you Libra I give the mission of service, that man may be mindful of his duties to others. That he may learn cooperation as well as the ability to reflect the other side of his actions. I will put you everywhere there is discord, and for your efforts I will give you the gift of Love.

To you Scorpio I give a very difficult task. You will have the ability to know the minds of men, but I do not permit you to speak about what you learn. Many times you will be pained by what you see, and in your pain you will turn away from Me and forget that it is not I but the perversion of My Idea that is causing your pain. You will see so much of man that you will come to know him as animal and wrestle so much with his animal instincts in yourself that you will lose your way; but when you finally come back to Me, Scorpio, I have for you the supreme gift of Purpose.

Sagittarius, I ask you to make men laugh for amidst their misunderstanding of My Idea they become bitter. Through laughter you are to give man hope, and through hope turn his eyes back to Me. You will touch many lives if but only for a moment, and you will know the restlessness in every life you touch. To you Sagittarius I give the gift of Infinite Abundance, that you may spread wide enough to reach into every corner of darkness and bring it light.

Of you Capricorn, I ask the toil of your brow, that you might teach men to work. Your task is not an easy one for you will feel all of man's labors on your shoulders; but for the yoke of your burdens I put the responsibility of man in your hands.

To you Aquarius I give the concept of future that man might see other possibilities. You will have the pain of loneliness for I do not allow you to personalize My Love. but for turning man's eyes to new possibilities I give you the gift of Freedom, that in your liberty you may continue to serve mankind whenever he needs you.

To you Pisces I give the most difficult task of all. I ask you to collect all of man's sorrow and return it to me. Your tears are to be ultimately My tears. The sorrow you will absorb is the effect of man's misunderstanding My Idea, but you are to give him compassion that he may try again. For this the most difficult task of all I give the greatest gift of all. You will be the only one of My twelve children to understand Me. But this gift of understanding is for you, Pisces, for when you try to spread it to man he will not listen.

Then God said, "You each have a part of My Idea. You must not mistake that part for all of My Idea, nor may you desire to trade parts with each other. for each of you is perfect, but you will not know that until all twelve of you are ONE. For then the whole of My Idea will be revealed to each of you."

Blah blah blah... I've been told I've a very old soul then that I'm a new soul... I think anyone that tells anyone they are a new soul is a dead giveaway that they are a new soul themselves or they haven't had any real challenges in their own life to be empathatic with someone else. I think that we've ALL have no beginning and no end so therefore we've all been around for eons!

You have nothing to worry about Neptunes Mermaid with a Pisces Sun and your ruler in the 12th house.

Our ascendants shows the current path we're taking to work through our karma in this lifetime.

who knows the exact path for reaching heaven/nirvana? I certainly don't but I do know that in order to acheive it you must first master the lessons of each sign.
Thats why we're such an enigma and the path for one might be different for another.

Capricorn Ascendants are (dare I say all) "old souls"

Thanks lalalinda I like to think I’m getting closer to leaving the cycle...not starting it.
Sorry FireMeetsWater, I'm sure it's not your first time around.
Oh and welcome

lalalinda! Thank you muchly!
Also you described me as a Scorpio just about to the letter with this:Quote:

To you Scorpio I give a very difficult task. You will have the ability to know the minds of men, but I do not permit you to speak about what you learn. Many times you will be pained by what you see, and in your pain you will turn away from Me and forget that it is not I but the perversion of My Idea that is causing your pain. You will see so much of man that you will come to know him as animal and wrestle so much with his animal instincts in yourself that you will lose your way; but when you finally come back to Me, Scorpio, I have for you the supreme gift of Purpose.

Oh wow! WOW! Been there! Done that! Really really understand my purpose! But it was a LONG HARD road to there and back again, and not often a pretty one! And I sure do understand that business of not being allowed to tell or discuss much of what I know. It has I think caused me to appear too cryptic to many here at LL and elsewhere. But such knowlege and purpose carries with it the task, often quite pondersome, of great responsibility. And it is an often lonely path to walk. But I welcome it. I would never turn back on it, for I do understand and see the way set before me and the path(s) I have trodden upon, and never reject my reason for being, my purpose(s).
thank you again!
