Numerology: 7 Things Those With a lot of Number 11 Like

Share Button

For more than two decades empirical observation has allowed us to form distinct metaphysical theories using a comprehensive system of checks and balances, including handwriting analysis, intuition, and in-depth astrology and numerology.

Definite patterns of multiple indicators symbolize character, important life circumstances and events, and timing trends.

Regarding complex numerology, sometimes we happen across a subject who has a massive over-abundance of a certain number, such as the number 11.

Extremes are always a challenge to live constructively, but at least the person often has exceptional talent regarding the specific number and is able to capitalize on that talent.

Below we list seven things individuals with a lot (dozens of factors) of the number 11 in their comprehensive numerology have a fondness toward.

1. They thrive on harmony in their environment. Peaceful music, soft lighting, comfortable seating, and of course a lack of interpersonal strife is what they want. The worst environment for them would be, for example, a chaotic brokerage trading floor, which would lead to excessive nervous tension. It’s not that they don’t like competition or the adrenalin rush of working toward a deadline–they do. But the ideal setting for them to succeed must be reasonably tranquil.

2. Truthful living, even to the chagrin of their family and friends, is what they are about. Don’t like how they avoid traditional marriage, the usual societal standards and roles, and how they tell it like they see it and call it a sham? Too bad. They see the world through a truth-scope and walk their talk, even though they may appear “eccentric,” like the New Age author who writes about reincarnation, or the artist who mocks (dysfunctional) conventionality.

3. They are naturally inclined toward fame (or infamy if there are enough negative corroborating indicators) and really enjoy it, in fact they often crave it. Broadcasting their messages on national radio, appearing in a feature film or popular TV show, they can’t get enough.

4. That poor 6’6″ 275 lb linebacker wet his pants and ran screaming from the room after hearing and seeing an other-dimensional entity appear out of nowhere. But the person with loads of 11 happily remains in the room, smiling at the apparition, telling it she wants to help it find its way home.

5. So pleased with the illumination he taps into and even visions of future occurrences, he would like to share his insights with others. The compelling drive to do so is an important part of his life mission and he may do so through art, poetry, writing, or other means.

6. Waking up after a prophetic dream, even the rough ones, reminds him of his talent and he would trade it for nothing. There is power in the divine and he expresses gratitude for who he is and what he taps into (the other side).

7. Few things are more fun than seeing past life visions of friends and strangers. He’s tempted to tell that office worker on her lunch hour he sees walking down the street that her current life drama is intimately connected to when she was a sexually aggressive pirate in the late 1600s, but he has learned the hard way that it’s usually best to keep his visions to himself.

Numerology and the Number 5


Share Button

Character, cyclical timing trends, important life events and circumstances–all are surprisingly and consistently signified by the patterns comprised of multiple factors in the comprehensive numerology and astrology charts. Our solid system of checks and balances forms a terrific foundation to form metaphysical hypotheses through empirical observation.

Once you see, as we have, the regular repetition of configurations representing personality and life happenings, it’s easy to stop rejecting the theory of personal fate, including unavoidable personal adversity.

While it’s true that numbers represent quantity, they also represent quality, such as “he’s number 1.”

Below we outline the uniqueness of the number 5 as it relates to numerology and your life.

1. The number 5 is special in that it’s one of the most unpredictable numbers. Just like with the number 9, things may not go as planned under heavy 5 timing (particularly if you do the planning prior to the 5 timing). Whereas 9 is more fraught with emotional difficulties and endings, 5 is more freeing and liberating, and 5 also relates to new beginnings, unlike number 9.

2. Personifying the number 5, in its full glory, you have someone who is the ultimate rolling stone. Even though it’s said that the rolling stone gathers no moss, but its luster sure looks good, we don’t think so. The luster has too many scrapes when you look closely and the pronounced ridges and marks make it look older than its years. But those experiences were worth it! The problem with the number 5 in abundance is that they never slow down to take care of themselves properly.

3. The person with an over-abundance of the number 5 has an enormous amount of charisma and sex appeal. After seeing a photo of the person, you weren’t impressed. But when you meet them in person, they blow you away with their magnetic looks and you can’t believe it’s the same person in the photo!

4. Yes, it’s true. People with heavy 5 energy, at some point in their lives, based on their collective timing, will have a problem with over-consumption of food, drugs and, or alcohol. However, the special quality of the 5 allows them to do what few other people can do: quit the drugs, for example and leave them behind forever, without therapy, without rehab–cold turkey, just stop using permanently. Regarding alcohol, remember that guy in college who drank too much on a regular basis? You expected him to be a total drunk 20 years later. Is he? Nope. He stopped drinking for a while, and today he has a few drinks every now and then and hasn’t passed out, blacked out, or puked since age 21. How did he do that? The answer is transmutation; he is much more able than most to practically morph into a new person, shedding the destructive behavior and it relates, in part, to an abundance of number 5 energy. He can shed habits like others shed their Halloween costume after a wild night out.

5. Relationships, including friendships, romantic connections, and professional relationships and the person with heavy number 5 energy is a curious thing. Without fail, they will, much more often than other people, either terminate relationships too soon, or hang on to them well after they’ve outlived their purpose. Burning bridges is a bad habit for them. Alternatively, it’s a very unfortunate thing to see someone with excess 5 stuck in a traditional mindset (in part, due to other, conflicting energy), when they are much better off being free and single; acute depression is common while they remain stuck in an outworn relationship.

Numerology: 7 Things Those With a Lot of Number 7 Like

Share Button

Many years of empirical observation using a comprehensive system of checks and balances, including handwriting analysis, developed intuition, and in-depth astrology and numerology have allowed us to form well-defined theories.

Distinct patterns of multiple indicators symbolize personality, key events and circumstances, and timing trends.

Regarding numerology, occasionally we happen across a subject who has a massive over-abundance of a particular root number, such as the number 7.

Extremes are never easy to balance, but the subject often has extraordinary talent related to the specific number, and they make for a fascinating study.

Below we list 7 things people with a lot (i.e., dozens of indicators) of the number 7 in their comprehensive numerology have an affinity toward.

1. Oh how those heavy number 7 people love secrets. Tell him you want to have a confidential meeting to share some extremely privileged information and you will have him in the palm of your hand. But you better be telling the truth and it better be good, or he’ll see through you with his laser vision and put you on the “avoid” list in his mind and shut you out forever.

2. There is nothing like being immersed in nature to put someone who has a lot of 7 energy at ease. They thrive on it. Forrest, high desert, or the ocean takes her away to never never land. Sure, almost everyone enjoys nature, but the heavy 7 people so intimately connect with it that it brings them to an altered state and a higher dimension.

3. Someone with a large over-abundance of the number 7 will likely be an avid reader. They could make a career out of it, along with writing; science, technical matters, spirituality, escapist fiction, sci-fi, spy novels–they love it.

4. You don’t need to ask someone who has a lot of 7 energy if they like solitude. Of course they do, they thrive on it. It’s like asking Hollywood actors if they like recognition. A lot of people need to be around other people most, if not all, of the time. Not those with ample 7–they refuel in solitude. In fact, they likely have many other-dimensional friends that always keep them company (even if they don’t consciously realize this). They are never really alone.

Trying to make someone with heaps of the number 7 energy conform to the usual society role, such as traditional marriage, is futile. They would be miserable. You’ll just have to accept that their unconventional lifestyle is as perfect for them as yours is perfect for you–and they’ll be polite and avoid telling you how superficial your lifestyle appears to them.

5. Conversations about meaningful things, the deeper things in life, such as spirituality, will capture the heavy 7 individual’s attention. Trivial subjects? They will tune out fast.

6. Unfortunately, excess drinking, or otherwise unhealthily escaping is a favorite too. Although having a few drinks every now and then is fine, and won’t corrupt your spirituality, try to get them to go about their escapist pursuits in a more productive way, such as through meditation, reading, and nature.

7. One thing that’s crystal clear about those who have a ton of number 7 is that along with having a talent for keeping their mouth shut, they frequently perceive things that most other people miss. Put these two together and you have someone who could excel in investigative and intelligence work.

Other heavy 7 oriented things include highly specialized work such as watch-making, metaphysics, meditation, film, refined art, overseas travel, science, philosophy, mind-reading, prophesy, critical analysis, teaching, and advising.

Black Magic and Karma: 3 Controversial Examples

Share Button

Black magic is defined as the misuse of spiritual energy including harming another person or attempting to get someone to act in accordance with your desires, especially if your desires oppose theirs.

In our view, spiritual power is to be used only for good. The moment you try to control or manipulate another person, you step over the line and incur negative karma.

Below we list 3 controversial examples of black magic.

1. Every single day the very acquisitive and charismatic minister fervently prays to his savior asking for big donations from his church members. He also emphasizes in every sermon the importance of giving back to the lord. “You can never tithe enough,” he regularly states.

The power of his prayer yields impressive results over his lower middle class, obedient congregation and it’s not uncommon for donors to happily exclaim, “I don’t know what came over me, but I was led to donate a lot more than I had originally planned!”

Over the years, the prayers intensify and the church acquires an abundance of resources allowing the minister to live affluently, well beyond the means of his contemporaries. Since it’s prayer, and it’s in accordance with a religiously sanctioned idol, it’s acceptable, right? Wrong. He might as well be calling on the high priest of darkness and his merry gang of demons in this money scheme. The power of prayer may be divine, but abusing it invites pure darkness, and incurs serious negative karma.

2. A 30-something mother of two young kids wants out of her marriage, but knows her teacher salary and her husband’s income won’t be enough to support their current lifestyles if they separate. She is attracted to her male friend (and his money) who has made it clear to her that he values their friendship, but he’s not interested in her romantically or sexually (he is gay, and everyone is well aware of this, but she refuses to let go of her agenda to have a child with him).

Crystal magic to the rescue! The young lady is obsessed with crystals and spell-casting. Justifying her intent to rope him in to support her (and her two kids, their college education, and her mother) by reasoning that he can afford it and would like it if he just gave her a chance, she attempts crystal-based magic to draw him in and even interfere with his love life.

Unfortunately for her, his acute self-awareness leads him to realize she is attempting to manipulate him and he calls her on it. Instead of admitting the obvious, she denies it and plays the victim, incurring even more bad karma, and their friendship ends.

3. A best-selling New Age author has decided that she would like to “neutralize” the spiritual teachers she deems unacceptable and “harmful to the progress and inspiration of the New Age movement” with the help of her Wicca friend. Unfortunately for the New Age author, who does not believe in karma or reincarnation, by attempting to thwart the success of others, she is setting herself up for a series of lifetimes where she must endure being the target of black magic.

How do you know if you are violating spiritual law in such a way? Simple. If you are attempting to control others in any way, especially if they would reject your request if you had an honest conversation with them, then you are overstepping your bounds and will incur negative karma by utilizing spiritual forces (negative or positive) to sway them to your way of thinking.

What Never to do When Dumped and What to do Instead

Share Button

Anyone who has dated has probably been dumped. It happens even to the most eligible singles for various reasons.

We recently heard from a 29 year-old woman who said that her ex “should be” with her, and that she had paid a few spell-casters to work their magic and bring him back, but he still isn’t responding. She wanted to know what else she could do to change his mind.

We told her that it’s not her right to manipulate anyone, and using spiritual strong-arm techniques like love spells to control someone is abusing spiritual energy, will cause negative karma, and can invite nasty energy into your life.

It can be heartbreaking when someone leaves. However, there are magical techniques you can do to minimize the pain, not cause any negative karma, and if it’s destined, possibly repair your relationship.

Mystic’s Magic Formula

If you apply the Mystic’s Magic Formula, you will reach your goals if they are part of your predestined path. If they aren’t, your efforts are likely still part of your destiny, but may be more for a learning experience. Remember, the journey is often more important than the destination.

IMPORTANT NOTE: These steps are nondenominational; they can be used by anyone for all areas of life, no matter what religion or belief system you subscribe to.

1) Make time to consider your situation from a spiritual perspective. Review your assumptions and expectations and let them go.

Romantic love is nice, but it’s not the main purpose of relationships. Learning your lessons and working through your “good” and “bad” karma is. Also, remember that you likely have a long, hidden history with every person you become involved with, sometimes good, sometimes more challenging. This ancient history, if you care to explore it through meditation or past life regression, will shed light on why things worked out the way they did.

2) Accept what has happened, what is, and where you are (essential in order to move on).

If the person you want to be with is not interested, the best thing you can do to avoid excessive suffering is to accept their decision. Why in the world would you want someone who doesn’t want you? Also, once you accept and move on, you may find that they will perceive you in a better light.

3) Gratitude: express it for where you are, everything rewarding in your life that you have, and the good that will be, and strengthen your faith by continuing to emotionalize the desired, end result.

If there’s still a chance of saving the relationship, gratitude can work wonders. If there’s not, being grateful for new love in the future will too.

4) Invite help from your higher-self, guides of the Light and, or God.

Ask for help accepting the situation, repairing it if it’s destined, and, or moving on. Ask and you shall receive. Perhaps not always what you want, but usually what you need.

5) Calm your mind and fears and awaken your awareness through meditation.

6) What’s the next step? Ask this every step of the way and be open for clues.

7) Assume responsibility for yourself and your situation (no blaming).

8) Navigate your path with the tools available to you: numerology and astrology, meditation, past life regression, and graphology.

9) Do what you need to do, when you need to do it (and do “the right thing” in all situations).

When you follow these steps, you’ll initiate the right action at the right time and it will be for the highest good of all involved, resulting in more happiness, peace of mind, and a much more rewarding life.

Why Inequality is Not What it Seems


Share Button

“Income inequality” has been a popular topic in the news lately. Some say that those who make more money should give to those who have less to “even the playing field.”

From the standpoint of karma and reincarnation, there is no such thing as inequality. Life is not supposed offer equal outcomes (equal rights are another matter). Everyone is experiencing what they need to for their soul growth and, or for karmic reasons; like it or not (and we risk angry e-mails every time we mention this), you’ve earned much (not all) of the “good” and “bad” in your life through your past life actions.

We’re all for helping the disadvantaged with intelligent and reasonable solutions, but in our opinion, confiscating large portions of wealth from those who earned it legally, just because they have more, is unfair and it will also create negative karma. To demonstrate how we think forced wealth distribution is a bad idea, here are some similar solutions to some of life’s other inequalities (and often karmic circumstances).

Looks. Effective immediately, all good-looking people must wear bags over their heads and contribute to a cosmetic surgery fund for the appearance disadvantaged.

Weight. Everyone who makes an effort to exercise and eat healthily must stop. They are also required to eat a quota of junk food and drag the unmotivated to the gym.

Style. Do you always manage to look your best? Not anymore. You now must dress sloppily and refrain from any form of hair or clothing improvements.

Friends and family. Do you have great friendships or a loving family? Sorry, it’s not fair because many don’t. From this point forward, you must include the socially disadvantaged in your circle and do things to offend and alienate family members.

Grades. It’s wonderful that you’ve worked hard to achieve that stellar GPA, but you’re making others feel scholastically inferior. Your grades will now be shared with those who haven’t made an effort or people whose memories are not as photographic.

Boobs. It’s not fair of you to show off what you were born with or bought. Anyone caught doing so will be fined and forced to contribute to a fund to help the less endowed.

Love. How dare you! You’re happily involved when so many aren’t. You must now either share your relationship with someone less fortunate, or end it forever.

Money. Are you angry that you have less than the “fat cats?” Do you think they are greedy and should share their wealth with you? You have a lot more than the truly poor in impoverished, third world nations, so from this point forward, you will be required to share a large portion of your income with those less fortunate people.

Author J.K. Rowling went from poverty to billionaire status with her books and movies. Does anyone in their right mind call her prosperity in the free market, a fair exchange with willing fans, a “social injustice?”

If you “have not” and are furious at the “haves” (and we’re not talking about the “have”-thieves; the vast majority of “haves” are honorable) it’s likely that this “inequality” is karmic for you. Guess what you were like in a past life? Life doesn’t owe you, it’s perfectly fair, and nobody deserves a “participation trophy” just for showing up.

Envy is ugly. Be grateful for what you do have and do what you can to help others with your time, wisdom, or in other ways. The good karma will come back to you.

Your Subconscious Mind Always Wins

Share Button

The power of the human mind is astonishing. You’re aware of your conscious mind, the part of you that is knowingly reading this right now, but your collective subconscious mind is of its own volition, and doesn’t always agree with your conscious desires.

Try as you might, you aren’t really in control of your subconscious mind which greatly influences your behavior.

Hypnosis can greatly help to modify unconscious fears such as fear of expression or flying, and can also assist in directing your mind toward other goals, but subconscious defense patterns are much more complex and are much tougher to modify.

Handwriting analysis by a well-trained professional is very effective in delineating subconscious fears and defenses.

Below are 4 startling examples–the scary truth–of how your subconscious mind prevails and even rules your life.

1. Although seemingly noble, trying to never think about sex with anyone but your spouse or significant other is impossible, as are other attempts at rigid sexual morality. Why? Because your true (subconscious) feelings and human instinct aren’t in accordance with that strict moral notion–it’s natural to think, even fantasize sexually about people other than your spouse. While you chain your conscious mind in a box, your subconscious mind has a swinging singles party and the ensuing conflict in your mind wrecks havoc on your life; eventually that shadow-self you repress makes an appearance and crashes your morality construct.

2. You decide that from now on you’ll never get upset or angry and forever project blissful compassion. The problem is that it’s perfectly natural to feel “negative” emotions, and then to constructively express them. If you refuse to acknowledge your not so sweet feelings and stuff them down deep inside, eventually you’ll experience the beach ball under water effect: you’ll blow up at someone or otherwise inappropriately lose your cool, maybe in a case of road rage, or worse.

3. It’s better to put on a happy face instead of letting others see the sadness you’ve been holding at bay, or is it? Really, everyone wants to see you smile, but stuffing that inner disappointment only saps your energy. It’s much better to admit to yourself that despair is acceptable, then get in touch with it and deal with it effectively. Note: unrealistic expectations tend to foster disenchantment, so keep them in check.

4. “Selflessness” is often really a healthy form of selfishness. Does anyone really believe that “selflessness” exists? Look, we’ve always advocated helping those in need, but helping others feels good and is a motivator to continue, not to mention an effort to avoid guilt for not helping others, so it’s not really selflessness. While expressing unconditional love to those close to you may be interpreted as “selfless,” that’s a different matter, in our view.

There’s nothing wrong with self interest, as it makes the world go around. The problem is denying self interest, which then manifests in some nasty forms down the road, such as a hard-core advocate of some cause projecting his or her (natural) selfishness onto innocent parties, generating unnecessary strife.

In summary, stop holding yourself hostage to your conscious mind’s demands that conflict with your hidden, more potent mind, the subconscious. In acknowledging your mind’s “not so nice” impressions, and learning to accept and detach from them, it will give you greater peace of mind in the long run.

Finding Your Perfect Career


Share Button

One of the most common questions we receive is “What should I do for my career?”

Some are studying toward a degree and questioning if it’s right for them.

Some didn’t have parents or mentors who helped them develop interests other than TV, sports, or video games, or they were urged into unwanted careers.

Others want us to tell them what to do. They are so used to following directions and pleasing everyone that they have forgotten about their own inner needs and interests. This is an area where you need to be a bit selfish.

New Age “life purpose” marketing is popular today. For example, one “guru” says, “Knowing your life purpose is the first step to attracting great wealth and changing the world!”

Mythical assertions like this lead people to believe that their most fitting life purpose automatically leads to a high paying career. Unfortunately, we’ve found that not everyone is destined to have “the ideal job” and, or be rich. However, everyone has free will and can make the most of their circumstances, talents, and interests.

Many people are unhappily employed and have no idea what to do. Perhaps life has overwhelmed them, they are stuck in survival mode, and forgot about their passions and dreams.

Here are four tips if you don’t know what to do for a career:

1. As many successful people have said, follow your passions. What you “should” do, your highest path, will likely make your heart sing. Think deeply about what you’re passionate about, what you’re good at, and what you love to do. Somewhere in there lies what you “should” do with your life. Then your task is to figure out a way to make money with those things.

2. Learn to meditate. Then, ask these two questions every day in meditation: “What are my passions and talents and how can I use them to best serve myself and others?” “What is the next step for me in my quest for a fulfilling and successful career?”

3. Once you define a definite career direction, seek out a mentor who has been successful in a similar career.

Note: despite claims to the contrary by New Age marketers, not everyone is meant to be a self-employed entrepreneur. The rate of failure for American businesses, for example, is 90%. For on-line marketing, it’s 95%. It may be that you are best suited to be in a partnership, or even part of a large organization.

Keep in mind that your passion may need to remain a hobby while you pay your bills working a tolerable job. On the other hand, if you’re creative and it’s part of your path, you may be able to find a way to make money doing what you love. Also, sometimes you need to go through a longer process of trying different options, some of which may be needed to develop skills for a later career.

4. Comprehensive astrology and numerology, handwriting analysis, tarot and intuitive, and other types of readings can tell you a great deal about the career that is most suitable for you, and even give you significant clues about how or where to find it.

By the way, some people actually believe that to be truly spiritual you must provide “selfless service” and not put your interests ahead of others. If you want to be a martyr, fine, but we strongly discourage this because you can’t serve others in the best way you can unless you’re also serving yourself in some way.

5 Major New Age, Spiritual Mistakes


Share Button

Virtually everybody ends up wasting time somewhere along the line in their pursuit of spiritual awareness because the path is replete with pitfalls.

Don’t feel bad if you’ve taken a time consuming detour down a spiritual dead-end street. You’re not alone.

Below we list some of the most common New Age blunders.

1. Buying into the myth that personal adversity doesn’t have to exist, that it’s not necessary for spiritual growth. You’ve likely been exposed to New Age offerings telling you that “You were born only to enjoy life and to end suffering.” As nice as it sounds, don’t buy it. Life is full of important lessons and some of the most important spiritual breakthroughs come through personal adversity. Besides, if life was constantly and forever rainbows and sunshine, you would quickly become so bored that your subconscious would generate some sort of drama and conflict to make you feel alive. The good news is that you have free will within the confines of your fate and you can diminish the effects of suffering through acceptance, gratitude, and awareness.

2. Embracing the feel-good, yet bogus New Age claims, such as “I’ve found my soul mate and you can too in 90 days or less.” Authentic love–unconditional love-has nothing to do with deadlines and legal contracts. Real love happens when it’s supposed to happen, not in accordance with ego-self ideals, and everyone has different love life timing. Also, you have many soul mates and our findings clearly show that most are not meant to be life-long or the most desirable type, but the sort that help the most in your spiritual growth (read: challenging relationships).

3. Avoiding meditation or time alone spent in reflection. Isn’t it funny that in Western society today it’s so common for people to express disbelief at the idea of enjoying spending extended periods of time in solitude? “Like, OMG, what would you do?!” Spending regular periods alone is important to your spiritual growth, as is regular meditation. The inner landscape can be infinitely more compelling than the outer world.

4. Mistaking New Age inspiration, such as “you can delete all of your karma in a blink of an eye, all you have to do is believe that you can” for spiritual truth. Look, we’re all for inspiration and getting inspired (did you know that initiates in select ancient mystery schools would shout “I am inspired!” on cue?), but it better be rooted in truth or you’re just wasting your time and money with New Age escapism.

5. Ignoring the other spiritual laws besides the law of attraction. Although we acknowledge that it can be tempting to focus exclusively on the law of attraction and to ignore any other (prevailing) spiritual laws, doing so will only set you up for major disappointment.

For example, the law of predestination/fate/destiny (all these words have the same meaning) dictates that, on a soul level (not your personality, which you shed at death), you select your major predestined life circumstances of each lifetime, before incarnating. Our findings show this to be valid, even if your personality in this life is not aware of it and even if you don’t believe in predestination/fate/destiny. Nobody cheats their fate, no matter how much they practice the law of attraction. You’re in luck, however, if your personal destiny matches your desires and the better you know yourself, the more likely it will.

Although it’s almost impossible to avoid all New Age, spiritual traps, if you watch out for the ones outlined above you will save an enormous amount of time and money.

Reincarnation: The Past Lives of 12 Celebrities

Share Button

After employing past life regression techniques for our own benefit and others for over 20 years, we frequently perceive spontaneous flashes of insight related to past lives without having to do a formal regression.

How do we know the insight is authentic? We cannot bring forth related physical evidence, of course, but what we perceive to be authentic past life recall tends to be accompanied by strong emotion and seems very fitting after giving it some thought.

Below are what we have perceived to be select past lives of celebrities.

Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake were black singers and entertainers in the 1940s and 1950s. They worked hard and were very talented, but were overlooked in part, due to their skin color. This life is a reward for them in terms of career success.

Madonna actually was Eva Peron, the woman she portrayed in Evita. Actors are drawn to roles they’ve lived in past lives. Also, in a different lifetime, Madonna was likely the opposite of her current persona: in a position of religious power, she condemned those who expressed their sexuality. Part of her dharma in this lifetime was to help reverse the damage that she inflicted upon society with her narrow-minded views.

Leonardo DiCaprio was a noble who was unjustly imprisoned to solitary confinement, and had other related lifetimes where he wasn’t allowed to live or enjoy life. All he could do was daydream away the pain, about what could be, which helped lead him to where he is in this life.

Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones had many, many incarnations as a laboring musician who always worked hard, developing his iron will and thirst for success, which finally earned the good karma involving this lifetime. Our impression is that there was also a recurring theme of being incarcerated or otherwise restricted, and this lifetime involves over-balancing in the other direction–abuse of freedom, sensual gratification, and excess.

Brad Pitt was a wild west gun-slinger and bank robber.

Robert Downy Jr was a 1920s silent film star. Early death due to over-indulgence.

Drew Barrymore was also a star in silent films.

Shirley MacLaine worked against the belief of reincarnation in a past life as Empress Theodora (or someone a lot like her), who in 451 A.D., influenced the removal of all references to reincarnation from the Bible. Fortunately, in this life she has made up for that by going public, “Out on a Limb,” with her spiritual experiences and beliefs.

Tina Turner has had many, many lifetimes where she developed her personal power to a tremendous degree almost like a sorceress, wielding magic. We sense very strong spiritual power like that of an adept, well beyond the typical entertainer.

Any outspoken, ill-informed, biased celebrity (take your pick) who mainly complains and attacks rather than offering any solid, rational solutions or using their position of power for good. Projection is their game and the targets of their wrath are mirrors for how they were in past lives. The louder someone complains about something, the more likely it is they were a trouble-maker on the opposing side in past lives.

Donald Trump and President Clinton were French Royalty, possibly during the Renaissance. President Clinton was extravagant, as was common in those times for royalty, and Mr. Trump was a successful merchant.

How are your past lives influencing your present life? Even if you interpret them as subconscious metaphors, past life exploration can go a long way toward self-discovery.
