Perhaps you have already been a doctor, a warrior, an artist, a poet, a banker, a teacher, a dressmaker, a cook, a skilled rider, a hunter or an inventor. In this life, you continue to hone your skills and abilities.
Hybrid souls
Going a bit ahead, during the session of remembrance, you can ask your subconscious to show you your first life on planet Earth. Additionally, you can ask a very important question: «Did I have any incarnations before life on planet Earth?»
If you see, even hazily and vaguely, images of aliens, it means that you are a hybrid soul. If you see, even hazily and vaguely, images of aliens, it means that you are a hybrid soul. In such a way, Michael Newton called those whose souls and bodies were originally created elsewhere and not on Earth (see his book «Destiny of Souls»).
Hybrid souls are those who were born in other worlds before. This means that your life is special, that you are somewhat different from those who were born on this planet for the first time. And of course, this promises a very interesting journey not only to the past on Earth, but also to completely different worlds where you had been born before you came here. What is the difference between hybrid souls and earthly ones, you may also read in the second part of this book, «Conversations with Quetzalcoatl».
There is another important question that should be asked to your past incarnations in order to better understand the tasks of your current life. The question sounds like this: «What was my destination? What should I learn in this incarnation, what lessons should I get?»
Ask this question to all of your past avatars. If you came to learn something, overcome your fears, or work on certain character traits as far back as in your past life, it is highly likely that the trace of this spiritual work on yourself will be carried over into this life as well. To understand yourself, you need to first know the tasks of your past incarnation, as they may fully transfer into this life if they were not resolved earlier. Try to write down the received answers as accurately as possible in your diary.
There is also an opportunity to find out the causes of diseases in this life by means of examining past lives, especially if these pains have no obvious causes. So, ask your past incarnations: «Why do I have pain in… (state your issue)?» Understanding and forgiving yourself, as well as letting go of unnecessary karma, can be the first step towards healing.
If my actions in a past life may have negatively impacted the lives of others, can I compensate for it in this life? It is true that some people exhibit aggression and violence towards others. Unfortunately, it is inherent in human nature, as our minds often compete with those around us and sometimes push to extremes. This raises the question: if a person applied unjustified violence and caused harm to others in a past life, how does it affect their present life? The experience of viewing a past life shows that this greatly affects the present life.
When the soul is in the space between lives, in the spiritual realm, it plans its next life in order to learn the necessary lessons. Often, these lessons involve understanding the suffering of others, which means that the person themselves experiences the same violence and aggression that they previously inflicted on others.
It is not a law of retribution, punishment, or the anger of the gods. It is a necessary correction of the soul, planned by the individual themselves. Therefore, it is beneficial to perform acts of kindness and make it easier to fulfill the tasks planned before birth. In any case, your good deeds will only bring relief.
If you continue to persist and, like in a past life, use violence and aggression towards others, then it is likely that you will dig a hole for yourself, fall into it, and experience all the «delights» of karma in this very life. Lessons are given for us to learn, not to run away from them. In school, you could escape from a boring lesson and then catch up other students by reading the textbook. But in spiritual life, you cannot escape from lessons.
Summary. 10 questions to your past lives
1. I ask to be shown the most significant moments of my past life.
2. What is my name, my surname?
3. The time and place of my previous birth.
4. What my house looked like?
5. Who were my parents, my spouse, my children, my brothers and sisters?
6. Who I was by profession?
7. Have I had any incarnations before living on the planet Earth?
8. What was my purpose? What I learned in this incarnation, what lessons I got?
9. Why does something hurt me, what is the cause of my illness or weakness?
10. How to compensate in this life for the evil that I did to people in a past life?
In addition to these questions, you will ask many other questions when you begin to explore the details of past incarnations, and this is good and beneficial. Develop your inner vision, examine the details of the surroundings or landscapes, remember dates and names. All of this, along with understanding the soul's purpose, life goals and tasks, will further become a spiritual map of your soul. And as it is known, the value of maps lies in leading to treasures! Even if you don't find a literal treasure (although it is possible in shamanic practices!), you will understand who you are, who you were, and where you are heading. This will provide you with support in life, strength, and tranquility.
And the most important thing: knowing the path and its ultimate goal, it is always easy to find opportunities to achieve it. The main problem of people in modern society is that they do not know what the purpose of their life is, where they should go and how to make the right choice. They do not live a full life, but only survive, not dreaming of more.
Viewing past lives provides many with an understanding of the right guidelines and fills their life with meaning. And a person who has a purpose and unbending intent can overcome much, even what may seem initially beyond their capabilities.
7. The practice of «Journey to the Upper World»
If during the course exercises you have encountered unusual landscapes (not existing in this world), encountered non-human beings (even mythical ones), or had dreams of fantastical cities or other planets, it may indicate that you have a hybrid soul.
Hybrid souls had been incarnated in other worlds before being born on planet Earth. What these worlds look like and how similar they are to our planet are beyond the scope of this course. (You may find information about these worlds in the second part of the book, «Conversations with Quetzalcoatl»).
Even if you don't have any signs of a hybrid soul, you should still try another shamanic practice called «Journey to the Upper World».
What is the shamanic Upper World
In the shamanic tradition, the Upper World is the sky, cosmos, stars, and the highest spiritual realm. In many religious and mystical systems, there is a belief that the heavens serve as the dwelling place for higher spiritual beings. These beings are described as airy, transparent, pure, radiant, and angelic, and they help us, looking with sympathy at the Middle World, the world of humans. For a long time, these accounts were often perceived as fairy tales, comforting fantasies, or invented worlds. However, there are people who firmly believe that someone is «watching over» them from the heavens. It may be an individual guide, a deceased (disincarnate) relative, or a higher being.
