We are all beautiful souls, though some of us are older and more
in tune with our true selves, hence capable of tapping into our soul’s infinite
wisdom. Learn about the knowledge old souls have acquired in previous
incarnations.
We’ve all heard of Old Souls before, but who or what are
they really?
The real you, the Eternal Self, is your soul:
"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. — Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
The people who have incarnated on Earth countless times before
and they are now approaching the completion of the incarnation cycle, are
referred to as old souls.
Throughout their many lives, they have invariably mastered
invaluable lessons and now they have a deeper understanding of the world.
Old souls show a pronounced understanding of people and life in
general, and have an attitude towards life that is often labeled somewhere
between intuitive and philosophical, or even weird and uncanny.
Old souls have a strong intuition, tolerance, and empathy
towards others — because they have already “been there and done that” many
times before.
Some of the old souls are able to connect with their higher
selves and/or their Spirit Guides and, consequently, have easier access to
lessons mastered in past lives.
As a result, they are able to gain insights, which (normally)
appear to be ahead of their age group.
Even though many people feel like they are old souls because of
their intense, tiring, lives, it does not necessarily mean that they are
getting close to the completion of their incarnation cycle.
Others have indeed incarnated many times before but instead of
being scrupulous about their work, they chose to have fun instead. These are
the old souls that really enjoy life on Earth and are not really in a hurry to
“graduate.”
Old Souls Accessing Previously Acquired Information
All of us have experienced epiphanies in our lives: during
conversations on topics we had no prior knowledge about, offering deep and
sound advice to our friends and family (that we didn’t think ourselves capable
of), and, at times, quickly understanding the true intentions of a person that
we’ve never seen before in our lives, or understanding the outcome of a given
situation before actually happening.
That’s because we were able to access previously acquired
knowledge or information. This is evidence that most of us have previously
acquired and stored knowledge about the world, human society, and the
deeper meaning of life.
Though only a handful of people are aware of this, it is
actually possible to delve into ourselves through involution, deep meditation
or introspection and tap our knowledge pool during self-discovery.
Obviously, the process varies from one person to another, but we
all can — one way or another — access knowledge and information from previous
lives.
Are YOU an Old Soul?
Your journey towards tapping into the knowledge that you might
have gained in a previous incarnation begins with the question: Are you an old
soul?
Below are some experiences that are common to all old souls. See
how many are applicable to you:
01: You Look for Deeper Meanings
You find and observe deeper meaning in every aspect of life. You
have found yourself contemplating about nearly everything, and you may have
been teased by your friends for your philosophical look at the world around
you.
Whether it’s a simple gesture from a stranger or colleague, or
something that you have done, you often find yourself reflecting about the
meaning and reason behind everything.
02: People Have Found You Mature Beyond Your Years
Since your childhood (or teen years), people have been impressed
by your maturity and enjoyed talking with you. You remember experiencing a
strong urge to be around people who were older and more mature than you, and
enjoyed making conversation with them.
03: You Prefer the Simpler Pleasures of Life
A short walk, sitting silently in company of a loved one or
watching them smile, watching the sunsets, cooking a meal, feeling the wind as
you walk back home, etc. (the simple pleasure of life) — all of them make you
feel happy and grateful to be alive.
As a result, you have come to attach more value and meaning to
experiences rather than material things.
04: You Believe Solitude is an Important Aspect of Life
You enjoy solitude, sitting with yourself while being mindful of
your thoughts. You find that solitude recharges you, allowing you become
incredibly introspective of your life. Whilst others find solitude scary or
depressing, you, on the other hand, find it necessary.
Perhaps you have intuitively realized that someone — a friend,
loved one, or colleague — needs solitude and advised them so, as a remedy for
whatever is bothering them.
This does not mean that old souls are necessarily loners or they
don’t enjoy the company of others, but they do need their daily time off to
recharge their batteries and entertain intellectual ideas.
05: Empathy and Tolerance Comes Naturally to You
People have pointed out that you are too forgiving of others,
but you know that your empathy emerges from a sense of being connected with
other people.
You have found yourself at ease with various people because you
have never been inclined to judge others for who they are. You have always
accepted people as they are.
As a result, you are the person people turn to if they need to
take something off their chests, or they are in need of advise.
06: You Have a Strong Gut Instinct
You are sensitive to your surrounding and social cues. As a
result, you tend to trust your intuition and gut instinct.
What if You Are an Old Soul?
If you have answered “yes” to most of the above traits, then
yes, you are an old soul and in touch with the wisdom you have accumulated. You
are already attuned to your heart’s calling and can easily connect with true
self.
