Can a Past Life Affect This Lifetime?
A lot of times readings are great learning experiences for me and I get to meet a lot of wonderful people. I have done a number of Past Life readings and generally get information on past lives. To me, they are just as important as this lifetime in explaining what, exactly is going on with someone, especially in regards to their relationships.
What I have learned, through time, is that our relationships start off, in this lifetime, where they left off in the last lifetime.
Both Edgar Cayce and Dr. Brian Weiss (in his book Only Love is Real) talks about this phenomena as well.
Kevin Todeschi's Edgar Cayce on the Akashic Records says "In terms of personal relationships, Edgar Cayce stated that we never meet anyone by chance, nor do we ever have an emotional connection (positive or negative) to another individual for the first time. Relationships are an ongoing learning and experiential process. In other words, we pick up our relationships exactly where it was left the last time around."
Not only have I seen this pattern repeated, over and over again, in readings I have seen it in my own life.
My mom, sister and I had a past life in which my mom was my mom, my sister was my sister (with some sort of disability). My mom doted on my sister because of her disability and I was very jealous explaing why in this, current lifetime I was very, very jealous of my sister from an early age.
I know that knowing about this past life has helped me navigate and heal relationships from my past. As soon as I learned about the past life with my mom and sister I could forgive myself and my mom for this lifetime.
I have another situation in which I can see, clearly, how the past life relationship that I had with another individual mirrored exactly what occurred in this lifetime. I don't want to share the details for this individual's sake, but I must say that I am a little confused on how to move forward. If the relationship didn't improve do you leave it as is and know that there will be other opportunities to better it in other lifetimes or do you keep trying to make peace with it, in this lifetime?
I do believe that the people that you have unresolved issues with from other lifetimes keep appearing in your life and are, in a way, magnetized to you and you to them. Any thoughts?
Afterword: I am currently editing a channeled book and came across this tidbit about mending the relationships in our current lives. If we don't mend these relationships in this lifetime we will assuredly attract them like bees on honey in future lifetimes, with the same issues to resolve.
"You see these relationships stick with us throughout our lifetimes and we will repeat the same patterns with these people and instead of repelling their energy or energies we will attract them like bees on a honey pie. What I am saying is that if you don’t resolve your differences with people in this lifetime you will, guaranteed, draw that person to yourself in parallel universes of simultaneous or other lifetimes GUARANTEED. You see, instinctually, there is a part of our beings that knows that relationships are a major part of our living and being and existing. We strive to be clear of friction in our lives, to love and to love purely without guilt, retribution and fear. What we need to be aware of is that the problems that exist between ourselves and others do not merely vanish. In fact, in some or all cases, the problems fester like a mold and grow larger and larger. I cannot emphasize enough just how important it is for all of us to realize what an important aspect our interpersonal relationships are in all of life and really great care should be taken to mend these relationships as they are broken."
