Who Was I In My Past Lives?
This post answers a question for The Council from a reader named, Mona, who’s been fascinated by the idea of reincarnation for many years and is interested in learning who she was in her past lives.
Mona was the wife of a Roman soldier who had many servants and she was very popular in the courts of the high rulers. But no matter what she did in that lifetime and no matter how she advanced in her standing, it was never enough. The Council asks if Mona is satisfied and grateful for what she has in her current lifetime, or are you always looking for more?
The Council sees Mona was a teacher in the early 1800s and they ask her if she’d like to teach or help people in her current lifetime. Do you like to reach out and be there for people when they have problems? These lives were very good for you and you were very close to spirit and taught love and kindness.
Because these two lives jumped out at The Council they ask in your current life if you experience people that are difficult to be around, can you find the compassion for forgiveness, for understanding, and for helping these people?
The Council adds there was a life where Mona was involved in medicine and helping others. And because she enjoyed this, these emotions, thoughts, and desires are very much with her in her current life to reach out and help in any way. Helping others is the path you wish to be on in your current incarnation.
The Council also sees a lifetime where Mona was a woman who drove a truck and delivered food and donated items to poverty-stricken people. And The Council laughs that Mona loved driving that truck.
Listen to the entire 3-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Mona and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of loving and wise spirit guides a question and get an answer, for free. You can also contact us for a paid private phone session with The Council, and you can read the questions other readers have asked and the answers they’ve received. Other posts contain quotations from The Council that we hope you find inspiring, uplifting, and educational.
Ask The Council a Question
If there’s a question you’ve been thinking about and you’re curious how The Council might answer it, we encourage you to either use the blog’s Comments feature to ask your question, or contact us for a private phone session. You can click hereĀ to go to the ‘Let us know what you think about this post, or ask The Council a question’ section of this Welcome post and type your question there or you can type your question in the sameĀ section at the bottom of any post that inspires you to ask a question or leave a comment.
Since the blog is currently a project we do in our spare time it can take a while for us to do a session with The Council on a question and then publish a post on the session.Ā Depending on the question and the session it can sometimes take weeks after a question is asked to publish a post with The Council’s answer. Please be patient.
The Council
Cynthia is able to communicate with a group of five non-physical spirit guidesĀ in a manner similar to the way Esther Hicks communicates with and speaks for the spirit guides, Abraham, and Jane Roberts communicated and spoke for the spirit guide, Seth. I (Bob) basically interview The Council as they speak through Cynthia during what we refer to as a session. Sessions generally last 5-15 minutes and are usually audio recorded.Ā During the session Cynthia is aware of what The Council is saying and she also receives visual impressions and other types of telepathic communication from them.
The Council’s Basic Guidance
Since we began these sessions with The Council around 2009 they consistentlyĀ emphasize a few basic ideas that we attempt to summarize here:
1) You are an eternal spiritual being in a physical body.
You are the energy and vibration of continuously expanding love, intelligence, and joy.
Your physical experience in your physical body and your psychological experience of your personality is a small part of the totality of who you truly are.
Let yourself imagine from time to time what it might feel like to experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are, and don’t be surprised if you are able to experience this more often.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
As you open to the possibility your true nature is greater than you ordinarily perceive, it becomes easier to consider the possibility that this expanded you is truly the creator of everything that you experience.
If you’re used to thinking of yourself in a more limited sense, the idea that you are the creator of your experience may be difficult to understand.Ā Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea.
3) You are here to expand the love you are into physical reality.
You chose, as a spiritual being, to come into this physical reality to experience the joy of expanding the love you are as a spiritual being, into this physical reality. This is your purpose for being here.

Ask The Council 
Thank you so much! While reading this, I got goosebumps and felt the information really resonated with me. It’s funny, I am the person that many family members come to for advice, to vent and to discuss spiritual topics. It definitely makes sense to me. Thank you again, I really appreciate it.

Hello Cynthia, Bob and The Council
I just wanted to say how blessed I feel to come across your site and how kind you are to offer help for free where you can šš». I am hoping for your guidance.
My life has been so difficult and sad for as long as I can remember. I have been bullied since childhood and most of my life alone. I seem to be rejected and abandoned by almost all relationships. My brother and dad died separately in 2010, my best friend died last year, and Iāve struggled to survive financially my whole life.
In recent years I have become extremely sick with various immune diseases and now my body wonāt stop shaking and all sorts of issues. Because of ill health I lost my business, my side job, my cat and my house and I am dependant on my partner of 7 months. But he has now told me he cannot handle all my health problems and I have nowhere to go, no money and no real support to turn to. I feel abandoned again and want so much to break this cycle but I feel so hopeless and depressed. I think Iām not going to ever have a good life or even survive at all.
My partner is my fiancĆ© and he now wants to only be friends if/until he is in a better place, until then he cannot be emotionally involved with me. I can live with him but I want to be with him as a couple ā not friends for now. Being so unwell makes me very emotional. But I have no other place to live if I donāt. Are we destined to be together? Will my health return ever? Will I ever feel strong and love myself and feel loved? Will I be financially stable and have work (that I love or even like)?
Any guidance would be so gratefully appreciated thank you so much xx
