Picture it Egypt
44B.C you are a young and beautiful queen named Cleopatra you’re your poised to
rule the world and will be the last pharaoh in all of history.
Ah the good
old day’s back when Anthony loved me and all was right in the world…Wait you
mean you don’t believe that I could have been her in my past life?...oh damn
you must have a brain.
Now I will
likely get some angry feedback for this, but I can take the heat.
Reincarnation
is a popular after life view in the Wiccan world. Basically a person’s soul leaves
there body upon death, passing in to the Summer Lands for a short while and
when the time is right you are born again in to a different life and a different
form. This new life and new form is thought to be a reflection of the lives you
lived before. The better a person you were the better the life you are born into
respectively.
Remembering these
former selves is called having a past life experience. These are said to happen
when a lesson from your past life is being repeated in your current one. When this
happens your soul reminds you with a flash back to you form self.
Some meditations,
normally guided are said to be able to invoke visions of your former self and
many people make a nice living specializing in just that.
Here is the
little fly in the ointment. I have met no less than 13 Cleopatra’s personally. Now
you have to ask yourself after Cleo number three is this possible in short no
its not.
Here are
some reasons why. First there is only one soul to go around she can’t exists in
the likely thousands of people that claim her worldwide simultaneously.
Secondly if you believe in reincarnation then you are likely a believer in
magic if you believe in magic then it follows you believe in the abilities of
the Egyptian priests that preformed the funeral rites on Cleopatra at the time
of her death preserving her body so that she could be reincarnated back in to
her own mortal coil at a later point.
Thirdly
Cleopatra herself claimed to be an incarnation of Isis.
So please
lady’s …and some gentlemen stop saying you’re her, it’s nonsense and it damages
people’s views on the whole reincarnation concept. While it would be cool to be
a historical figure in a past life set your ego to the side and validate a genuine
experience over something flashy, and claiming to be her doesn't so much impress people as it makes them realize
what low self-esteem you have
Amen
