Dear Friends,
I have to admit, most of my life, I didn't give much credence to reincarnation. It seemed more like fantasy or fantastical thinking to me. I've had reason recently to be more open minded to the concept, however. I was reminded by my older sister about something I had long forgotten. Sometime between my second and third birthday, I would tell anyone who would listen that I had once been a little boy! When they would ask when I was a boy, I would laugh and say before I became a girl! Then I would go into great detail about what I looked like and what my life was like then. Everyone thought I was highly imaginative.
In the 90's, I had a friend who is an astrologer draw up my chart. She did an extensive search and a part of the reading was a pastlife exploration. In it, she had written that I was a male in my last past life! I also had the opportunity to have a chart drawn up using Edgar Casey pastlife guidelines. It too revealed I had been male in my last past life! I found this amusing and didn't put the pieces together until my sister reminded me about that part of my past!
Please understand I have never had any gender identification problems. I have always enjoyed being a female. I was a wife, am a mother and finally a grandma! I have a cousin I grew up with who hated having been born a girl and I couldn't identify with her feelings at all! For me, being a boy was "then" and I am a girl now! It was just that simple! I knew nothing about past lives or reincarnation. When I put the chart information together with my memory, I was taken by surprise! Now I see the concept with different eyes!
Wyndwytch, I consider testimony as evidence. It is given weight in a court of law. If more people come forward with testimony, the closer we will come to proof. Testimony is strong enough to convict and condemn people to death. It is only when it comes to the subject of the paranormal that testimony isn't deemed enough!
Joyssis, thank you for the kind words. I am willing to share my experiences as long as there is interest in what I have to share.
Luna113, your dream sounds to me more like an "out of body experience." I have much to share about my OBE dreams which I will relate over time. There is much more to come!
Your friend, Jean

I would like to add that I have never had feelings of a past life but a very close friend of mine has. Talking to "Bob" has helped me open my mind to the possibility. Now Jean has had these memories of a past life and I certainly have to admit they have my attention... so please consider the possibility and do your own research....

Hi everyone sorry to not have responded sooner , I was sick. I love this because in many parts of the world there are people who believe in past lives. wow to have been a boy and come back as a girl that would really be something. Personally I would want to come back as an alligator. I have had a friend who said he was a shaman. I have met others as well who have been other things in past lives , please tell us more, thanks for the fantastic input , Bunch

I've read several accounts of children saying similar things. It seems to be rather common, and I think with that in mind, reincarnation is entirely possible.

this is quite an interesting one to read, thanks for sharing. based on my personally held beliefs, I don't really believe in reincarnation as it is typically brought forth (poeple coming back as say a cow or something), but i do believe that spirits are atleast in some part recycled, so it is facinating that you were able to get even a glimps of the previous life. Most don't get that chance. As for the previous one, i was not saying that your testimony isn't valid or invalid. I am one who believes in the fact there are things that science cannot yet prove, and likely never will (usually because they are to quick to discount ideas or concepts that they dont understand). I simply was pointing out several options that come from all angles. I never take anything as gospel but always try to approach it from every angle possible and then if i don't come to a conclusion i don't come to one. Just how i am. there are usually many sides to any story be it a car accident, or how two people meet. I just choose to find all the possible sides or as many as i can. that is all. I didn't mean to offend if i did. I am actually quite enjoying what is being posted here on your behalf.

I believe in reincarnation. I don't have any conscious memories though. Sometimes I do get bits of disturbing dreams about places in the past in which I am someone else. Not enough to answer any questions, unfortunately.
