Some times I just feel out of place with this time. And this life. I have memories of battle, of wars, of being some thing more than I am now. But in this time, in this world my fighting spirited feels suffocated. How do you all deal with your memories? How do you all make this life work for you?
Depending how intense they are all you can really do is accept what is already there and learn from what you remember.
What I struggle with is the fact that I can no longer do the things I did before. Why remember at all if you are to just feel helpless? I have fought for great masters and for freedom but in this life I can not do that. grrrr.... it's just so frustrating.
Maybe it's your time to rest from the past but your subconscious just won't let you. So the most you can do is probably take your frustrations out in a good action video game...or just sink into your memories until you can accept your new reality.
I am a video game junkie. And not all of my memories are bad. I just feel like I need to fight all the time. I would be a great solider if I were male. On the front lines fighting. It's just so hard to not fight. That is all I know. In this life and all the others.
I just started putting my past life memories together...but I know how you feel.... The way I deal with it is to take the memories I have and try to relate the lessons to this life... It has helped me understand why certain things happen and how I should deal with them....try to use yours the same way... It may help you to deal with your outsider feeling...
I began to recognize the memories for what they are. Then, I was able to move on and incorporate what I used to be with who I am now.
Don't really have past life memories...more like feelings and judging from them it's been a long while since my last past life..
Just know this moment will fade, it is more than likely that your memories are strong because of your age. That being similar to the past life. Also wars and conflicts in this life will bring on past memories too. Just know that in time they will fade and try to accept that you can't go back to that time and maybe find if there is a lesson you are meant to remember or learn about again in this life. Is there something in your past that is reflected in this life?
i mostly feel that i have already lived that moment - deja vu. happens to me most of the time
Personally I try to use it as a lesson that I can learn from to make this life better if at all possible.
I force myself to have selective amnisia. It's hard but it works for me
This is blunt, but build new memories. If the ones from the past have such an impact, make some from this life that will have more impact. We do not have to forget where we have been, but every life is a way to make it better. Just try to make it more than it was.
Blessed Be
If these really are past memories then you need to let them go. I doubt they'd disappear but letting them stay around for the sake of a glamorous fantasy realm is pointless and harmful not just to yourself but others around you.
If you feel suffocated, if you feel as if you're closed in, go out, go for a run, exhaust yourself. Your body is most likely producing too much energy and you need to expel some of it from your body.
i just live with them, i am trying to find out about a lot of them but i just think it is a new learning curb
Use your energies for a greater cause, fighting for something does not have to mean fighting in the physical sense! Get out there and make a difference!!!
let it out thats what I do go take some martial arts class's practice them and see if that don't help "balance" things out some for you.
Oni... and if I don't? I have gotten in way to much trouble fighting all of my life. Kicked out every school I was in. Went to juvie, military schools. And I don't feel like going to jail....lol
it's odd isn't it? i use meditation to contorle it and astral projection to visit my past lifes to know more about my past lives
well in some cases your past lives are saying you need to learn your lesson or wanting to give you infomation or help for that matter.
in my past life my mom has told me that I'm the queen of egypt.
How do I make this life work for me?
Well, I live it one day at a time. I set certain goals for myself and then concentrate on reaching those goals, again, one day at a time.
Find something you like to do and do it.
It helps if your active. Less time to think about your dreams. Find a hobby
I have similar experiences.
I've mainly relived past deaths, but also have wandered through countless landscapes as well which I have never been to in this lifetime. I've spoken in tongues that I do not understand, but did when I dreamt it. I've done amazing feats which I am unable to perform in my waking life.
My earliest dream I presume to date back approximately 5000 years BC, where I was in a fishing village of maybe 30 to 50 people, speaking in a language I've never seen on record before.
I've ridden on horseback in chain-mail, fought off a horde of attackers with a flint-rifle, been shot at by cannons, spent time in a WW1 prison, been on the city streets where I was shot in the head, was on board a WW2 German submarine (which sank), I've even fallen off a train platform in front of a train. etc etc.
It's like my 'soul' (for lack of a better term), was or is connected to other past life events, or my 'soul' has lived those events and I just have access to those memories. I cannot explain what I have, I just live with them and I treasure what I have experienced in my dreams.
I suggest you should also treasure your past life experiences, be they good or bad ones. :)
I erase it from my memory and move on.
No use in living in the past.
Learn from it and drive forward dear....
when it comes to past lives I just try to remember the good times and everything that I have learned over the years and try to forget anthing negative that has happened to me in the past.
I used to have these weird recollections of things I know I didn't experience in this lifetime, even when I died and came back. I went to a psychic who was very gifted, and she told me some past life things that explained the recollections I was having. I have made peace with my past lifetimes. I feel much better with the knowledge I received from this wonderful woman.
when they are hiting me I just stop, breath slowly and focus to let it flow away, then resum and just do not stay attach to it, I move forward and get involve in things that keep my mind busy.
I have had many past lives, some good and some not so good.
I have flashbacks and memories of them quite a lot, and i use them to my advantage. I learn from those that I can and i use other things from them for my research.
As I am conversant in astral projection and chaos magick, i tend to visit my past lives and research them as much as i can when i do. I learn all sorts of things from them and have learnt a lot.
I suggest this course of action to anyone who has problems dealing with the differences between any past life (or lives) and the life they lead now. There is always a way to learn from them.

i'm trying to get over what happened in my family. my grandma died the day before my 16th birthday and i was told on my 16th birthday. plus i can't stop worrying about my mom who was in jail but is out again.
it's crazy when people tell me past lives are bullshit, but honestly they are not, I've dreamt of past battles, and woke up without the feeling of my legs.. (like I died from getting them cut off in battle) you just go on, those days are long gone
I think that it can't hurt to go to a professional that deals with this sort of thing. There are hypnotists that do and can help you get through what is intruding into this life. This is kinda what Scientologists do. For some it helps and for others if they don't take it too seriously it is just a matter of trying to live in the now...don't dwell in the past. The more you do the more it will impact you and not always in a good way.
BloodAngelX, I know exactly how you feel... as far as the fighting part and feeling suffocated because I feel I have no place to properly get rid of this feeling...
I would say just try to move forward from this and take out your fighting with some kind of either martial art activity where you are at least learning fighting moves, OR get a punching bag, learn how to sword fight, or just play a good old fashioned killing video game lol.
I have had more than 1 past life but the one i remember the most clear (and i mean this literally) is the one in which i see my husband (not the guy i am with now in this life yet the same soul) being murdered!!! this is so vivid and i have had this dream since i was about 6 years old when i met my fiancee i knew it was him i have had regression to reassure myself it was not a dream.
The main thing is to remember it is the past not the present, this helps focus
if you start being obsessed with the past you wont be able to focus on the present
What's in your past is in your past. Don't let it rule and control your life now or in your future. You need to take control of your life now and don't let your past dictate your future.
I've had some of these feelings too. Like General Patton. You should put yourself to the task at hand as he did. Use these experiences to help with what confronts you now.
Only one of my past life memories haunt me but it is every time i get in a car... i have to think possitive thoughts.... I evendently died in a car wreck cause thats all i think about when im in one..........
personaly I embrace them, they are there for a reason, maybe to learn from them. but they are a part of you and thats the best thing about them
when i remember my past lifes they are in my dreams. and they are mostly about my death sence that would be the last thing i see in those lives. one is of a car crash, another is in war as a indian warrior. and another is me as a knight protecting the woman i loved from being killed by a mob during the black plague.
Just deal with good part of ur past life. Try to wipe off all of the bad ones. Maybe sometimes its good to remember the past it may help u in the long run.
i feel like i was an animal at one point, is that possible?
You have to find a way to stress the fact to your self that this is a differnt time and a differnt life.. move on, theres no other way!
hmm..this one is tough to explain...everyone knows i have medical problems and so i sorta stair off into space sometimes when the past life experiences come to me, but try to focuse on what they are and write them down and find out more about them, and sometimes that helps to stop having them, becasues sometimes they are messages ur trying to send to urself
I have just rececently found out a few of my past lives through past life regression with help of my high priestess and meditation.
I deal with it like this:
My past lives were given to me for a reason. I have learned, and loved, and hated and tried. As long as I feel I can do well, and even better in this life, then I am well off.
I try not to dwell too much on them, but learn from them.
Apparently I've 'been around for a good long while,' as my priestess mentioned-- which is why I was asked to join the Coven in the first place (I really wish you all could meet them-- they are AMAZING people).
they hurt sometimes and others you find that you would rather not relive them but it seems that to move on you have to
I get them alot of the time.
The best thing to do is try to lock them away in a part of the brain you never use.
I just try to forget about it,but if I can't I go outside and find something to do until it passes
They come to me in dreams so intense, I wake up in shock. I try to do something that will distract me, ie. listen to music. But if I can't stop thinking about it, I just try and piece together what I remember. Then I generally forget about it.
They are always Fun but if you actually figure them out they can be good tips for future instances
There are many other ways to fight for what you believe in.
You may not be hacking anyone to pieces but maybe focusing on fighting in other ways could help.
Then you could always play D & D. lol
i would learn from my past memories, and when i would see that i did great things, i would see this life as a break, for when i am needed again.
Just relax and let your mind wander with the memory maybe you will actually put all the puzzle pieces together.
I am only 18 and i have gone through so much in my short years of living...and i have so many memories both good and bad... the way i deal with it, is that i keep myself busy...if i dont i would probably go crazy just thinking about it all.
Try past regression. Once you achive a
balance and come to terms with your past
you can look forward to the future.
Bella
I just say them to be The keys to the future I am going to have
I used to have these weird recollections of things I know I didn't experience in this lifetime when i was young never really looked into it.
All i do is try to remember my past lives and if i can us the lessons i had learnt
I usually keep mine to myself unless a times comes when I have to do otherwise.

I find it very interesting that you speak of the nameless ones and the cat people as I too have memories similar to that, although I was a warrior in ancient egypt and worshipped the Jackal Anubis. I was one of the sacred Anubi Warriors of the ancient world (before even the first dynasty of ancient egypt, when the first pharoahs brought the three lands of egypt together under the rule of one god king).
I also remember long before that as some kind of early man....but the memory of that past life is very poor and extremely mysterious.
Please feel free to message me any time to discuss this matter more.
Well said calming chaos.
I too sometimes feel like i don't belong in this modern world. My affinity with ancient egypt, my affinity with swords and the way I am sometimes makes me feel this way.
However, I am happy in the life i live now, and am happy to embrace the challenge that is infront of me when it appears.
M
LOL i do remember something about a persecuter, but as a warrior of the Jackal, i was rarely involved with the affairs of Lady Bast. I do not believe i ever met the persecuter nor even saw the persecuter, but tales travel many lands.
I myself now record my dreams of my pastlifes and try not to make the same mistakes. I feel if we are seeing these things that is our soul tring to guide us in the right direction.
As of late, with a few... odd happenings, I can recal being a pet to some Egyptian family. Probably the reason I enjoy Egyptian lore so much.
Also helps my current Coven is Egyptian/Norse in nature. :)
I believe in some manner also I was an egyptian dancer. Tavern or palace-type I have no idea-- but I still find myself dancing in a comfortble, yet stranger manner at times.
Anubis, Bastet, Set-- those I'm all very comfortable with-- and of course, Isis and Osiris because of my Coven. :)
In a past life I loved to travel...and I had my own apartment...I lived alone I think. Somethings don't change eh? *smiles*
i feel that somethings i do it feels like i have done them before. there are places that i have traveled to for work and it seems like i have already been there. so i thinks that in one of my past lifes i traveled all over. i also think that in my past live i had met my fiancee and that is how we got together in this life. its like something happened to us then and brought us to gether now.
Deja vu...hmm. Our past lives hold many keys to what we do in our actual lives. Embrace those dreams and try to learn as much as you can from them. The most I can remember from mine are as a child playing on the beach or on the counrtyside, lying in a field, laughing. My lesson? Hold on to my innocence. Or what's left of it anyway. Those memories comfort me. They make me happy.
I was always taught that if you see your past life, that there is something in your present life you are suppossed to complete before you can rest in the Summerland. BUT, you cannot force the memories, because if you do you Fate will show you wrong and confusing things deliberately. If you keep your mind open you may see clearly what is trying to be shown to you. :X
Ive got past life memorys..but I think that they are memorys of somone else.
See I have a very close connection to my mate and we share a joined past.
that has happen to me but i dream about place and sometimes them place are real and i will know where everthing is
what do you think the reason is for dealing with past mlife memeries
I think it so you can figure out what you have to do and do it, so that your soul can rest. but thats just me lol. :x
I know what you're talking about.
When I was younger, I had this strange fear of loud, abrupt noises. Like, a balloon popping, or fireworks. Even a slammed door. My mom knew a medium, so I talked to her for a while. We had an ouija session, if you will. I found out, in a previous, more recent past life, I was a tiger. One that was shot in the back of the head, and killed. It would explain my extreme dislike of loud noises. And after knowing this, I found it easier to cope with this fear.
I can relate to this as well. I just try to use those memories to prepare myself for future challenges since history really does repeat itself.
I deal with it by trying to connect with and talk to people in knew in past lives. If i can find and befriend them, it makes this easier to cope with because we talk about the past and what the future migh hold. I know i can trust those people because of time spent with them in the past.
i have dreams of war only war where i am on a beach and im always with this one comrade who is always blown to bits and i always wake up with tears...
plus i love the thought of war
i believe i was a soldier in my past life
i feel the point of reincarnation (from past life) is so u dont have to remember and u can start over. and mamories of this life, u just need to leave behind u and forgive and forget. unless u dont want to. then hold onto them.
I once kept a journal so that I could record all of my past life visions. However, after over 2000 pages of information (all noted down in less than 3 months) i found it easier to just commit the information to my memory in such a way that it would be hidden from me until i needed it. It is all now locked away and there is probably enough to write a decology of books.
M
u should wright them them. they would be really interesting and would probably sell really good.
I don't have the time to start a project as big as that, if i did have, i probably would though.
i dont really have any memories. but i saw this one show on discovery channel with a boy who had past life memories of being in a barn and getting killed. and they did some background research and 100 years ago a man was shot in the head in a barn. ironically, the boy has a large birthmark exactly where the man got shot in the head.
I have learned to just go on with the life i have now and try not to think of the past....
I make this life work by living it, that is all a person can do...
I would definetly try to deal with them because they'll eat at you until you understand the reason for why they are surfacing.... there's a book called Discovering past lives... I can't remember the author but you can google it... Anyway it tells you about how to tap into them........
