Reincarnation – some people believe in it, others do not. I personally know many people who believe that when you die, your Soul just evaporates. There is nothing else. Unfortunately, they will have to pass themselves to see the truth.
Reincarnation is an integral part of the process of living and balancing karma. If reincarnation did not exist, all souls would have unbalanced karma, which makes it incredibly difficult to rejoin the Source Energy that you come from (the Source Energy is generally the Source of the Universe that you are in).
When somebody passes, they usually are met on the other side by Souls that they have known before. The Souls could be their spirit guides, relatives who have passed in the passed, a Soul that they follow or believe in, or even an old friend. It is this Souls responsibility to help the new Soul to adapt to their new environment. Their life has gone from a physical existence, to an Energy based experience, and it will take some period to adjust. They have been there before (before they were born), but many have forgotten this existence.
The period immediately after someone passes is a time for relaxation, and to adapt. It is a time to get reacquainted with those that have passed before, and a time to perhaps do some of the things that you had always wanted to do when alive, but was unable. I was once asked to look for somebody after they had passed, by a spouse. This Soul had been touring the planet, going to all of the places he had wanted to go to when he was living. He was having fun, enjoying himself. others that I see are spending most of their time talking to relatives they knew, getting caught up.
After what is generally a few weeks to months, the Soul goes into a period of introspection – they do an analysis of their life to determine where they were able to follow their path, and where they were not. Was karma balanced during the previous life, or did they wind up accumulating additional karma? They use this period of introspection to begin to determine where and how they can best balance karma again.
Throughout this period, Souls that are not incarnate have the ability to engage with Souls that do inhabit a body; they can do this by trying to communicate through thoughts. The recipient must be open to this, but the Energies of the two Souls must be aligned (in both Energy level, and Energy frequency). This is much easier to do than it sounds; most people have no limits that would prevent them from reaching this ability themselves. The biggest hinderance is only their lack of belief in themselves and their own abilities.
I will talk about how to communicate with spirits in other posts in the future.
Reincarnation, as we call it now, was always meant to be a part of the Life Construct. It is not reasonable to expect that somebody could balance all of their karma in one lifetime, particularly when that life may involve a complex societal structure, and a large number of potential Souls for one to interact with. It has become a valuable tool within the Life Construct. As I said earlier, it is alright that people do not believe in it, they will learn after they pass. For those that choose to not believe in reincarnation because of their personal religious beliefs, they too will learn much more about reincarnation when they pass. No Soul gets to escape it – to a degree even those Souls from the Central Sun who choose to incarnate. But in this case, it is not necessarily to balance karma, it s to learn and experience many different aspect of our creation, largely in an effort to make it better.
