Understanding Past Lives and Relationships
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Christine.
Christine: Dear Cynthia, Bob, and The Council. I have met this elusive internet man twice now, and it was a million times better than expected. We both agree that we have known each other in so many lifetimes, but I was wondering if we have ever been in a relationship in any of the lifetimes.
Council: There have been lifetimes, and there have been many relationships with this person, in the same family as a father, as a child, as a brother. If you are speaking of intimate relationships, there was a relationship where the two of you were very, very young, and at that time, you went through the ritual of marriage and had children. There was always that feeling of understanding each other, being sort of on the same page, and learning from each other. And so we would say, many relationships in different ways.
And so, yes, there is a common knowing of each other. Sometimes there would rise up a feeling within that there is a closeness, and it is just a remembering.
Christine: The past three months, I have been participating in women’s healing groups where I do a cacao ceremony, journaling, breath work, and meditation.
Council: And so, you would get a lot of energy from that, which is wonderful. It clears your mind, it energizes the body, especially the cacao, which will give energy to your heart. And so, the path you are on, what you are doing now, is a wonderful growing thing.
Christine: I feel absolutely amazing after these sessions, and feel like my soul has had a cleanse. Unexpected opportunities occur after these healing circles. I had zero interest in breathwork; however, when I did my first session, I went into a past life. I was in Egypt, in a temple, and the feeling of being there was pure calmness, and I knew my place. It’s difficult to explain. The way the world is today was not like that at that time. Stress and anxiety did not exist.
Council: The life that you are now tuning into is not in Egypt, but was known as the continent of Mu. And so, very much like Egypt, but even more advanced, and more into learning by feelings. And so, recognizing people by feelings, operating day by day, not so much from the mind and the thoughts, but from the feelings. And so that was a peaceful place.
Christine: Stress and anxiety did not exist. There was not even a word for it, and no one had even experienced the feeling of it. The way they described Egypt on documentaries was not what I felt in that past life. I saw myself as a priestess, and I felt really grounded, not only to Earth, but to everything in the universe. I had no idea what to expect with breathwork, but now I’m loving it.
Council: And so, it would be good to learn more about that and experience that, because in that life, as you learn more about it, you will learn more about being in a place of calmness, being in a place of loving one another, and growing in that way. And not having to deal with violence, and with any disruption. And that will take you forward in this life, with what you come up against, any challenges that come to you. So we would say that would be a wonderful thing to go back into and learn.
Christine: The second time I did breathwork a month later, I wanted to know how I knew this internet guy. I don’t know if it was just my imagination, but I was in Egypt again, and I was on a throne, laughing and relaxed, and saw him in the crowd below from where I was sitting. I did not want to see his face, and blurred his head and shoulders purposefully, and pointed at him and said, “I know where you’re from. Thank you for loving me.”
Council: So, interestingly enough, what you have tuned into is a life between lives. This sort of looking down and recognizing him, but not wanting to know what you were planning for the future. And so, that is the feeling of seeing him, but not wanting to know who he was.
Christine: Is this from my ego wanting to create a story, or was I really in these two past lives?
Council: It was a looking back. It was to give you a clue. And how does that feel to you in this life, to sort of have an idea that you know this person? And what do you get from that? It’s always, what are you getting from it? What are you learning?
And so, yes, there have been these past lives. You did tune into it, and you now have the ability to get more information by reading up on the continent of Mu. If you care to speak to this person about it, it is not really necessary because you will connect on communication by mind, and not words. And so, you have a very interesting path to go down if you choose.
Christine: I feel like he’s getting justice towards me because I think we’ve never been able to be in a relationship in any of the lives, and he’s punishing me in this current incarnation. Can you please clarify and confirm if we were ever together? And were those visions I saw during breathwork real?
Council: The visions were real. Any sort of idea you have where he’s trying to get even with you, that is a challenge that you have put in front of you in this life, and it is not true, from where he is coming from. And so, look at that. Why do you think this would be? What are you experiencing? What is it really reminding you of? It has nothing to do with him.
Christine: I understand the reason he ghosts me in this life is because he’s had a mental illness, but is there still a possibility to create a relationship by using the Law of Assumption? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. With gratitude. Much love, Christine.
Council: And so, any relationship you choose to create, you would do it in your mind. You would do it from a feeling of love and happiness, and ask this relationship to grow. And to talk with your mind to this other person, and then see what happens. But it is possible. Always coming from a place of love, and patience, and seeing it the way you want it to be.
We send love, and light, and healing to all.

Do I Have Many Lifetimes That Emphasize Romance?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Tom, who says, I find myself getting aroused frequently and somewhat easily, and I’m often thinking about making love. I get the feeling I’ve had an abundance of lifetimes that emphasize romance and other physical pleasures, and that my soul is rather fond of the physical. Is this assessment true?
The Council says we see 3 past lives in particular that are affecting your current life for the reasons you wish to learn about. The first life, in Egyptian times, you were one of the priestesses in the Temple of Bast and you weren’t allowed to have relationships of any kind with men. Your life was devoted to the goddess. In that lifetime you saw many young people in relationships and you always wanted that. But you knew if you were to have a relationship you’d be buried alive. And so you had a life of chastity, always wondering what it would be like to be in a romantic relationship.
In another lifetime in the 1100s, you were a knight in the Knights Templar and had to take a vow of poverty and chastity. Even though you traveled around to many different towns and were around beautiful women, you had to live a vow of chastity.
Then coming forward, because of these two lives, you wished to know what it would be like to be in intimate relationships and to be sexual. The next lifetime we see was in the court of Henry VIII where you were one of the handmaidens and you had many sexual relationships.
In your current life you wish to have relationships, but for it to be more pleasant for you. These past three lives weren’t pleasant, even when you were a sort of courtesan in the time of Henry VIII. In your current life you’re looking for more of a permanent relationship. This is why you often have the feeling of being aroused. It’s you looking on that path to find what it is that’s needed and what you wish to experience in this lifetime.
Tom closes by saying, And if my assessment is true, can you tell me about these lifetimes that are romance-heavy? The Council says what we’re trying to help you understand is why you feel this frequent arousal in your current lifetime. Even though you’re looking to hear about romance-heavy lives, that’s not what’s affecting your current life. What’s affecting your current life are the three lives we’ve told you about.
Meditate on these lives. Study these time periods. Imagining what it would have been like will bring you to a point where you’ll understand that was then, but that’s not what you want now. This will also give you the freedom to visualize and fantasize more about what you want in this lifetime. The kind of person and the kind of life you would like. And that’s the background of what’s going on for you in your current life.
