This "past life" reading was done in January of 2007. One of the many reasons I feel strongly about reincarnation is a book I read called "Reliving Reincarnations Through Hypnosis" He has age regressed over 5000 people. They tell of their past lives and speak languages they are not familiar with in this life while under hypnosis. I found this fascinating and wanted to learn more. I am not trying to convert anyone to this belief, but merely give them something to think upon. About 20 percent of people believe in reincarnation.
The following reading was done by Shaman Diane (she writes for my magazine as a result of me being so impressed with her abilities). Her reading mirrors some things going on in my life today, such as her explanation about my stomach pain and my passion for herbal remedies.
Here is her reading:
First with your chart, it was very revealing about your personality. Leo is a Fire sign, your season in shamanic views is the summer, when we take action on our ideas and bring them to reality. Many of your planets fell into a specific area of the chart that shows your concern and nurturing for others. With the planet of Neptune (mystery, illusion, spirituality) in your first house (which is you) you have a thirst for exploring the unknown and spiritual.
You are a gifted and passionate communicator and you also enjoy learning from others. Most of your planets fell into the house of career, and wishes and hopes for others (10th and 11th houses of the astrology wheel).The work that you do would be most beneficial to you if you were in a nurturing role, or one that impacts a great many people. You have so many wonderful qualities that people listen to you, admire you and respect you. When you don’t receive recognition you become resentful and taken advantage of. You have a need to grow, expand, and be more independent so you can carry out your life theme which is the Mother, or depending on the tarot deck used, High Priestess. This role of nurturer, advisor, protector is what you are meant to explore on this life’s journey. This theme revealed itself through much of the reading, especially in the past lives we discovered.
Although I don’t necessarily believe our past lives need to be put in any chronological order, it seemed helpful for us to make sense of everything. The first lifetime I came across in my journey was to find you as a woman named Meredith. A healer and herbalist in the Celtic times. You saved many lives but when one of the medicines was what attributed to the death of someone important in that time, your were punished by being burned at the stake by the very same villagers who’s many lives you had saved.
The next life we found you as a young, spirited gypsy – somewhere in Europe, either Greece or Italy, and you had shimmering black long hair, full skirts and very colorful clothes. You had 2 children but your husband had left the gypsy camp forever. In the gypsy way, the whole group helped raise the children, almost like a commune. Your name was Gabriella and you were in your 30’s. You were a passionate and gifted dancer and would dance around the fire circles at night. Many of the men secretly lusted for you, but you were not interested in any man who was already betrothed to another. A jealous woman joined in your circle of dance and stabbed you in the abdomen – right below you ribcage. You still feel that jarring pain today, which may have influenced your health issues. IN both of these lifetimes there were issues of betrayal, where you felt as though you did nothing so awful as to have to pay with your life. So there may be a trend in this lifetime of trust issues, and rightly so.
