Advertisements [?]Usually when we hear about other people's past life recollections, they're from centuries ago (and I have plenty of those of my own). It seems I hardly ever hear about past lives from the 20th century. But I've often suspected that a lifetime of mine ended in the early '60s, and I turned right around and jumped into a body again. I was born in 1966. I missed Beatlemania, the hippie era (I was too little to know about it), and all that cool stuff. However, even as a child and then a teenager, I was obsessed with England in the "swinging '60s", especially London, the Beatles, etc. Movies from that era, like Alfie, fascinate me. When I went to London in '86, fulfilling a longstanding dream of mine, and my friends and I ended up in a grubby tea shop near Covent Garden that hadn't been renovated since the '50s, I was in heaven. I truly thought the sight of the green linoleum and chipped mugs was going to teleport me back any second. I have watched the British miniseries Sex, Chips, and Rock 'n' Roll, which is about two teen sisters living in 1965, more times than I can count. I just...identify with it all. I've always gotten the feeling that I had a very vibrant youth in England--that I was born in the '40s there, enjoyed and envied American rock 'n' roll in the '50s (something else I loved as a child in my present lifetime), and then completely embraced the "mod" lifestyle of the early '60s when I was in my 20s. I strongly suspect my life was cut short in the mid-'60s. When I was born into a new body, it seemed I picked up where I left off and continued to love fashion, music--even boys! I wanted to be a hippie when that would have been the next logical phase for me in my previous life. When I was 4 or 5, I begged my mom for bell bottoms and peasant tops and suede boots (she refused and dressed me in polyester and cut my hair short, instead ).I know lifetimes aren't linear and time is relative, but I can't help but wonder about this one, because I truly pine for an era in which I technically never lived...

Once, when I was still with my coven, we did a session on the witchboard (round homemade Ouija board--much safer--more protected) and an old Confederate officer came through. He gave only his initials, but he was pretty high up the ranks, so I suppose I could find out who he was if I made the attempt. He had a plantation just outside New Orleans. I was a quadroon or octaroon, his mistress. I had four kids with him. We lived in a townhouse on the residential end of Bourbon Street in NO that the officer bought for us, and he'd visit fairly frequently. It was a good life--we had money, and because NO was so much more liberal than the rest of the South, I had status.New Orleans is one of my favorite cities in the world. When I first visited the Quarter, it truly felt like I had come home. (I found out about the officer several years later.) Although I went back frequently, I never tried to find out about the officer. I think you're right about not needing to confirm it--what we took from these lifetimes that are of value to us is enough. I've always loved your username, Shallah. Can you share what it means/where it came from? Understood if you don't care to, though!
I dunno.Why is it that primitives in their past lives were always somebody famous or prominent, but in this life primitives ended up so meaningless, so irrelevant?

I forgot Coach's truism: Remember, DUmmies lie. All the time, DUmmies lie.
I don't do past lives .Its to old and musty. I'm into future life progression and not long ago I found out I'm going to end up as................The only downside is I end up old and doing airline commercials because Starfleets retirement package was gutted to fund Bill Clinton the 14Th's birthday party.
When I was in college I had one of those weird past lives types (he was also into automatic writing which WAS pretty creepy to watch) tell me I was a poltergeist in my last life. I have no idea whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.Cindie
