Numerous religions and philosophies, ancient and modern, recognize the concept of reincarnation. The idea is that the immortal soul lives in the world, starting new life in another body after the death of the previous body. Even if the human mind does not have a conscious memory of past lives, the soul still remembers. The Past Lives spread is very closely related to the idea of ​​reincarnation and is useful for comparing a Querent's past with his present.

Reincarnation

The concept of reincarnation, no doubt very complex from a metaphysical point of view, if accepted, implies three consequences. The first consequence is that, even if each person is each time born free from the mistakes and successes of the previous incarnation, the soul continues to grow, develop and learn, over and over again correcting its own mistakes and transcending its own limits. The souls called "young" have traveled only a small part of the way, as they have lived few lives, while the "old" souls are wiser and closer to enlightenment. The second consequence is that there may be ways to bring back memories and feelings that belong to our past history. Those who believe in reincarnation claim that it is possible to restore our own memory in dreams, through meditation, hypnosis, and also with the help of the Tarot. The third consequence is that traces of the past are also present in the present incarnation. For those who believe in reincarnation, the birth of a deep and mutual love at first sight is a consequence of the fact that two souls loved each other in past lives and suddenly intuitively recognized each other.

Various interpretations of the alignment

The Past Lives spread can be used in two ways. different ways depending on the beliefs of the cartomancer and Querent. If the idea of ​​reincarnation is accepted, then the Spread can be used to explore the previous lives of the Querent. If the idea of ​​reincarnation is not acceptable, then the Spread should be used as a metaphor for exploring and comparing the two different periods Querent's life. It must be remembered how important it is for the cartomancer to have a deep respect for both his own convictions and those of the Querent.

There are thus two different ways of interpreting the cards using the Past Lives Spread.

• First option: The layout is used to study the nature of a past life; only the first five cards are used.
• The second option: The layout is used to study the nature of the past life, establishing its relationship with the present; all nine cards are used.
• The third option: The layout is used taking into account "past lives" as a metaphor; all nine cards are used. The past life is considered not as a real incarnation, but as a closed cycle of events that took place in the Querent's past. For example, if the Querent, at the end of one love relationships is new, you can apply the "Past Lives" layout, analyzing the first five cards to describe the completed relationship, and the last four cards - for the newly emerged romance.

Spread Basics

The Past Lives spread is based on the analysis of the previous life, which is revealed through the goal, obstacle and lesson. The idea is that the Querent had a goal in the past, that that goal was not easy to achieve, and that the Querent has learned and grown as a person. The past life is thus compared with the present. The obvious difference is that the cycle relating to the past life is closed, while the cycle of the present life is still open to any possibilities, and it can be influenced by the actions and decisions of the Querent.
The layout is presented in three different options. In the first version, the interpretation ends with an analysis of the past life without comparing it with the present. The second and third options, on the contrary, differ only in their interpretation.

How to prepare and lay out cards

After the cartomancer and Querent have shuffled the deck in turn, the Querent draws the deck two times: the first time

• left hand (which symbolizes the past), the second time
• right (which symbolizes the future). Then the cartomant lays out the cards according to the positions indicated on the diagram. If the first option is used, then only cards from 1 to 5 are laid out.

Divination and interpretation

The cartomancer prepares to interpret the Arcana in each position, keeping in mind their respective meanings. After finishing the interpretation of all the cards, the cartomancer sums up the entire interpretation, known as the Synthesis.

1 Past life

This card represents the previous incarnation of the Querent and, in particular, the quality that can be considered his hallmark in the past. In the first and second versions, this card also indicates whether the Querent was a man or a woman in a previous life. Opening the card, the cartomancer thinks: "That's who Querent was in a past life."

2 Past life purpose

This card represents the Querent's greatest hope in a previous life or what he wanted to achieve. Opening this card, the cartomancer thinks: "That's what Querent's goal was."

3 Obstacle to past life

This card symbolizes an obstacle in the implementation of the task that the Querent set for himself in a past life. Opening it, the cartomancer thinks, "That's what the Querent has always fought with."

4 Life lesson

This card symbolizes the life lesson that Querent received in a previous incarnation. Opening it, the cartomancer thinks: "Here is a message from a past life."

5 Conclusion

This card speaks of the result that the Querent achieved. Opening it, the cartomancer thinks: "This card will tell me if Querent succeeded in achieving the goals set in a past life." In the first and second options, the card can also indicate how the previous incarnation of the Querent ended.

6 New mission

This card represents the Querent's new mission: what the Querent has chosen to discover for himself in his present incarnation. Opening it, the cartomancer thinks: "This card will tell me why the Querent reincarnated again."

7 current target

This card symbolizes the current purpose of the Querent in the present, or what the current incarnation will teach the Querent. Opening it, the cartomancer thinks: "Here is the lesson that Querent is destined to receive in the current incarnation."

8 The current hurdle

This card speaks of an obstacle that Querent has to contend with in the present, or of a situation or idea that constantly hinders progress. Opening the card, the cartomancer thinks, "This is what the Querent is currently struggling with."

9 Current incarnation

This card conveys Querenth's current incarnation through some quality or distinguishing feature, which can accurately characterize him, as well as card 1 in relation to his past. When opening this card, the cartomancer thinks, "This is who the Querent is at present."

Synthesis of the Tarot layout "Past Lives"

Synthesis of interpretation can be very different depending on which version of the layout the cartomancer uses.

First option

The purpose of divination is to reveal information about Querent's past life. Querent was not the person he is at present, but in the current incarnation, he, however, has much in common with him. This can be seen on the first map. In a past life, there were two constant components: the goal towards which the Querent tried to move and which can be read on the second card, as well as the obstacle or difficulty that the Querent tried to overcome throughout his life and which the third card speaks of. Often this card indicates a deficiency of the Querent, which may also be present in the present life, unless the obstacle mentioned above has been overcome. However, during a past life Querent, due to the constant conflict of goals and obstacles that he was forced to face, grew above himself and learned something important, which became the source of his confidence in the current incarnation. This is indicated by the fourth card. The fifth card, on the contrary, represents the end of Querent's life, its end and a new beginning, and also reminds that the last cycle has already exhausted itself, and the new cycle promises other difficulties and goals.

Second option

The task of divination is to compare the past and present life of Querent. Up to the 5th card, the interpretation is absolutely identical to the interpretation of the first option. Cards 5 to 9 follow almost a mirror image of the previous ones, but they already relate to the current situation.

There are, however, some differences as well. There is no correspondence in the present life for the Conclusion card, since it refers to a closed and completed cycle, while the current cycle is still in progress. Cards 4 and 6 should be considered mirror images, however, given that while the life lesson has already been learned, the mission is still possible and can be realized on occasion. In this case, the Synthesis must be based on a comparison of the past and the present. The cards may indicate a connection between the past and the present, or failures after which the Querent began everything from scratch.

Third option

The purpose of divination is to present two parallel situations from the life of the Querent - past and present - in interconnection. The main idea of ​​the Synthesis is that you need to learn from the past lessons. The past has left wounds in Querent's soul, probably not yet healed, which, in turn, cause doubts, fears and insecurities. The querent, however, has learned a lesson and gained experience that can be translated into strength, confidence, ability, judgment. Comparing past and present can help Querent leave old wounds behind. For example, if a relationship ended badly, this does not mean that a new relationship should end the same way, because people and circumstances are already different. The querent must learn to benefit from his own experience and from what he has learned. For example, in a new relationship, the Querent may pay attention not to repeat the mistakes made with the previous partner.

Fortune telling example

For this divination, the Medieval Tarot deck will be used, and the interpretation will refer to the Third variant of the layout.

Querent is a man who got married at a very young age, but then got divorced, and is now about to get married again. The Cartomancer uses the Past Lives Spread to match the first marriage with the second.

1 Six of Pentacles is a past life

And in past relationships, Querent was too focused on giving and taking. His spontaneity and generosity tempered his need for every thing to be fair and impartial, to the point where he could become insensitive or irresponsible.

2 The Five of Wands is the goal of a past life

In past relationships, the Querent's goal seemed very accurate, but it probably did not depend entirely on feelings. Perhaps, with the help of his wife, he wanted to recreate the relationship of his parents, or perhaps, as a result of the refusal, he wanted their complete opposite.

3 Ace of Swords is an obstacle in a past life

Even in the emotional aspect, the Querent acted rationally and logically, taking into account giving and receiving. Throughout past relationships, Querent did not allow his heart to guide him, even in his own feelings.

4 The Knight of Wands Is A Life Lesson

Past relationships have shown Querent that every romantic story is a journey for two. The most beautiful things and memories that he had left were not only about him, but were shared with each other, desired and demanded by both.

5 Page of Pentacles is the conclusion

The last romance ended when the dreams and hopes of both partners ceased to be directed to their relationship. They continued to share with each other the most prosaic moments of their life together, leaving, however, the most lively and inspiring only for themselves.

6 Page of Swords is a new mission

In these new relationships, the Querent must be aware that his partner may be stronger and more skillful than himself. He also has his own past, and the Querent must be willing to compromise and learn from his partner, not just teach him. From this follows the conclusion that love is constant knowledge.

7 The Six of Swords is the current target

This relationship will also be a journey. Despite the fact that he is weighed down by the shadows of the past that hang over both partners, this journey must be made together and in the same direction, in an atmosphere of support and mutual assistance in the most difficult moments.

8 The Hermit Is The Current Obstacle

This card is the only Major Arcana in the Spread and therefore deserves special attention. The true obstacle for the Querent is that he is used to keeping all the most important things to himself, maintaining rather superficial relationships with others. Now that he is about to get married, he must overcome this reticence and get used to sharing his deepest feelings with his partner, gradually revealing himself more and more.

9 The Eight of Swords is the current incarnation

The current incarnation of the Querent is characterized by a conflict between limitations and possibilities, or between what is already part of the Querent's personality and what can still be changed. It is necessary to understand which qualities the Querent can change, and which are an integral part of his way of being and must be accepted. The querent must pay attention to understanding his own contradictions and not allow them to guide his actions.

Synthesis

When comparing the past and present of the Querent, it becomes obvious that in the past there was more passion and more energy in the emotional life of the Querent. Querent, being perhaps too young, tried to restrain this deep emotionality, while going, however, to the other extreme. Rationalizing and subjecting every thing to detailed analysis, he practically ruined his own spontaneity. When the feelings of both partners cooled, the relationship collapsed.

At present, the situation seems to be the opposite. The querent seems to be acting too reserved. His own memories can help him change his view of the upcoming wedding, presenting it not as the final destination, but as the beginning of the journey. Thus, he must make the journey with a partner, bearing in mind that it is likely that the partner will be his guide.

Reincarnation by date of birth, based on the tables of Pythagoras.

What gives us the knowledge of reincarnations?

Suppose we find out where and when we were born in our previous incarnations. Why do we need this? What does this give us? It would seem that this knowledge is completely useless for our present life. But actually it is not.

The first thing that the doctrine of reincarnation gives us is deliverance from the fear of death. Death turns for us from a scarecrow, devouring and absorbing, from eternal non-existence, into a door open for our transition to other worlds. Non-existence is canceled, and the knowledge about the continuation of life in another form, at other levels, in other worlds, comes.

We stop wondering why they beat us so much in this life, why they make us suffer so much. We have no doubts about the injustice of the Lord and the law of the Universe. We get a powerful incentive to live with dignity.

Seneca believed that "life is not good or evil in itself, but only an arena for good and evil." He also owns the saying: “It makes no difference when to die - sooner or later. Who lives - in the power of fate; whoever is not afraid of death has escaped its power.”

The death of a person (if we understand it as an irreversible process of the end of any kind of existence) turns a person's life with his searches, efforts and aspirations into a meaningless path to nowhere. Life is seen in a completely different way by a person who has received information about the existence of higher worlds, in which the soul continues its life after the death of the body and where everything that we have achieved in our life is preserved and used. spiritual development. Belief in the immortality of the soul and the existence of higher worlds instantly removes many questions, freeing a person from the heavy oppression of the meaninglessness of his existence.

In many esoteric beliefs, it is believed that a person comes to this world not once, but is reborn many times in order to achieve enlightenment. From each incarnation we learn a certain lesson. And our next incarnation will depend on whether we assimilate it, whether we fulfill our karmic tasks. This divination reveals the secret of past lives, allows you to find out what you have learned from them. Also, the cards will tell you the main goal of your current incarnation. This layout can be performed not only for yourself, but also for other people whose fate interests you.
