I know we have a few with fpl & afew who suspect the possibilty of.
Just afew questions on the subject.

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

I think most of us must have had at least one life with some promenence. It would give us the broad spectrum needed to experience life different ways.
So makes sense.

Many thanks:D
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?


No


2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?





Yes and that makes my answer to the first question more interesting. I had a huge interest in Chinese culture and in the era, however I never once encountered anything relating to my past life, even though it should have been relatively easy.


I think for me at least, this was part of my life plan, to not know about it until I reached a certain point in my life.


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?


I can't site one specific moment when I knew I had found my past life. People speak of "blocks" or memories being purposefully clouded and i think that happened to me.


Despite being at the point where I was supposed to learn about my past life, it took a while for these blocks or imposed amnesia to wear off, despite having researched a year or so.


For me, it was more the facts. I've only had one specific memory related to that past life that I was able to verify, but out of everything I've learned, what triggered the recognition was our birthdates. They're the same and very important to me and for whatever reason that is, it was the key. A second part of that though was not wanting to admit to myself that my friend in this life was also my husband in my last life.


After that, I felt a huge amount of grief. For several months, I felt disconnected and had dreams of old photos and houses. I'm glad it's passed, but the vividness of letting out pent up feelings and grief is what convinced me at first, and then finding so many facts and other things is what gave me confidence about it.


4. How did you feel when you worked it out?


I feel fine now.. :D But I kind of answered that in the above question.
 
Thanks for that tortoro, much appreciated.


I imagine learning a friend was your partner in a pl would be difficult! Also dependant how good or bad that pl relationship was.


Probably why we're not meant to remember.cover face


I had affairs with two of my in laws in different pl's-and i wonder why they give me a hard time now-LOL

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?


No, before my realization (or suspicion) of being AOS I have never heard of him.


2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?


Yes, I was an immense Anglophile (born in Budapest), I wanted to emigrate to the UK, before finally I settled on the US.


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?


No. But he died in 1956 same year I was born, he loved cats (I do too), he was an artist, I was into drawing as a child ('til I outgrew it)...


4. How did you feel when you worked it out?


I was elated - later I thought maybe my mind was playing tricks or I was projecting something I wanted to be so....

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person? (No I had not.)


2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching? (Yes very much so)


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories? (I have had many memories that have lead me to know who I was in the past. I have tons of evidence.)


4. How did you feel when you worked it out? (Surprised and amazed. Not because of the identity. I never oohed and ahhed over the "famous" identity. More I was just happy I discovered another life.)
 
Famous "Things"...


Hello All,


I haven't remembered being a famous person, but I do have memories of working on a very famous thing...The Bayeux Tapestry...


1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?


"No...In America learning other countries history is very minimal, I had never heard of 'The Bayeux Tapestry' until, while traveling to France, my husband and I happened to be in the area. There was a subconscious pulling that is hard to explain...we visited the museum where the tapestry is on display, and that was the beginning of putting together things from my childhood that I had remembered...but had no explanation for..."


2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?


"Yes...needle work was very easy for me, and learning languages too...and when I was very young I sang songs in French...my mother said she never understood why..."


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?


"For me it was finding the figure on the tapestry that I had drawn as a child over and over again...I drew this figure up into my teenage years. Then remembering where the tapestry had been made and actually going there...it was amazing!! My past life came back to me in floods...I have been almost able to remember this life from beginning to end, without hypnotherapy."


4. How did you feel when you worked it out?


"I felt very grateful...maybe a funny word to describe my feelings, but to trust your feelings...to trust that the soul continues...that "what" you are remains... and grows and learns...I am grateful for this knowledge! "
 
1. Yes I'd heard of him. He was mentioned in history in school. Although that's all I knew about him. A film about him came out when I was eighteen. All I thought then really was that I would have been on the anti treaty side during the civil war. I was fairly immovable in my youth. ( my PL self was on the pro treaty side during the civil war ). I didn't give him much thought after that.

2. I was always interested in the military and I always regretted not asking my grandparents what it was like growing up during the war of independence and the civil war ( when my PL self lived ). I was young when they died so I hadn't thought to ask them at the time.

3. I had to make the same choice in my current life as in my PL. I also displayed the same talents as him in areas I hadnt studied in in my current life. I also realised that when my back was against the wall I behaved exactly the same way as him. I also came to understand his compromise on the treaty because of the compromise I had to make in my current life.

After all of that something inside me kept telling me to visit his grave. I didn't though, not until I remembered that I was him.

I then had PL flashbacks 9 months later. I remembered looking at the facade of the GPO in 1916 from the inside so I knew that I had been there. Then I started having memories from the civil war period. I remembered addressing crowds and briefing my men and such. Eventually I had so many memories it was confirmed for me that I was him. It helped that some in my soul group were known to me in that life. It helped narrow down the 'cast of characters' enough that I knew that I was him.

4. I felt great at the time. I'd had a misspent youth so when I was protecting my love I used to call myself 'the knight in shyte covered armour'. Finding out that I was this lionised hero made me feel like all of my sins had been wiped clean. Of course life lessons knocked that out of me.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?

Only shortly before, as this is a part of history not normally covered in my country.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

I always had interest in achieving animal rights/human rights/human living-working conditions. Plus this time around I'm invested in LGBTQ+ rights, although back then I wasn't aware that there were any rights to be had in that regard.
Also I am an artist specializing in nature, which prompts my s/o to call me 'nature gay', so there is that, too.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

Over the years I've slowly collected memories that couldn't be tied to any other life I remember, yet had an overarching theme/mood, which made me suspect they belonged to the same person. And then I read a biography by chance (horrendously poorly written and glaringly inaccurate at times, by the way) and found several of the memories described there.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

My first reaction was "well ****", because at that point I knew enough to realize that this had not been a happy life, and whatever new memories would resurface afterwards had a good chance of not being happy either.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?

Yes, he 's a fairly known painter, especially in France.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

I love drawing since I was very young. Now I'm a comics artist. And in my "famous" past life I was a painter.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

Never before would I have thought I lived that life. I knew his name but nothing else about his life or career. Then I made a regression and saw me write his signature on the lower right of a painting, in addition to other moments of his life.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

I was amazed... and then I went into books to learn more about this man, as I didn't knew anything except his name. Now I know a lot more, as I made other regressions. I found things you can read in biographies, and other things that are not.
 
Firstly, Excellent questions!

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
Yes, Just a quick glance of the name and it felt familiar to me

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Yes, I've always been attracted to Edwardian/Late Victorian Era Germany


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
It's a long story but Evidence and memories, also accounts from reincarnated relatives


4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
I was felt a huge weight be lifted off of me and i felt happy.

Many thanks:D

1. Yes. I had seen and heard my name.

2. Yes.

3. Yes. When I had a memory that undoubtedly linked me to him/me.

4. Happy to find myself.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
No - I'm not from the United States fortunately and had never come across the name, until after I figured it out myself.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Sadly, I had my first memory when I was 8 years old, so I was much influenced. My passion, however, is much the same as the life before, so I don't know if that's been an influence or just natural. I'm still much interested in economy and politics - but I've promised my s/o to never join politics again (so far, it's always resulted in my death, so. Yeah.)

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
Um - a series of evidence. So many memories. I read this biography which - though it had some glaring inaccuracies - did make me feel more firm in my belief in who I was, but I never questioned it. It's been as normal to me, having been that person, as knowing that the earth is round.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
Both proud and afraid - that PL did not have the best of lives, however famous I might've been, and that didn't exactly cheer me up much haha
 
1. Yes, but I can't recall when. It's like I always knew who he was. I also have this memory of seeing his picture on Tv at a very young age. Which "very young age" could also mean before I was born because the setting where the Tv was doesn't correspond to anything in this life. Or maybe my mind made it up, but it's been in my brain for a long time.

2- I did have an interest in the era, overall line of work and country, prior to research. However, I really didn't know anything about him, just that he existed.

3- Not ONE moment in particular. I was just really in tune with reincarnation between 2006-2008 and I remembered a lot. Eventually with all the pieces together it's a bit hard to deny. Having a shared recollection of an unknown event with someone else sort of closed the deal a bit.

4- Weird, I still feel weird if I think about it. Creeped out and trapped in a claustrophobic time tunnel. Why? Probably because there's pictures, it's looking at yourself in a mirror you are not supposed to see, like two dimensions colliding.

No, not more then my middle name is similiar, but no I had not heard that name before.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Well my dad got a opportunity to work in the Romania and I worked with a volunteer family that was from Romania, but had not heard much about the country before, nor did I look it up, most of all it is a chain of reactions and things that happened. As for the nursery work and social work she did, that I did have. As well as she was a girl guide I been a girl scout since I was 9 years old. Being fond of royalties I been since I was little and believed in a monarchy as a strong foundation for a country I have since I was young. But also been attractive to the Edwardian era in general.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
Well it was a chain or reaction, all from a photo I saw when I was younger in my history book, to a dream that plagued me for years between the age of 7-10 and then the people I recognised when talking with them or seeing their face in a picture that I stumbled upon. The scenes that sometimes came up either happy or sad ones. And the way I always felt I wanted to dress when I was younger, my mother found me hopeless when it came to clothes shopping, because I am really is a very girl girl when it comes to clothes, I even as kid could dress in long stocking, dress and a shirt over during the summer times. If I can pick I always wear dresses or skirts that are knee-length or longer.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
Happy and lots of emotions came over me, things that had puzzled me for years took another turn and turned more happier, but also the emotions and longing for the people that I back then called family. The fact that I socialised with cousins from back then and most of all puzzled all my feelings and such that occurred in the years around the Great war and such, memories that was dimmed and such. But also memories of people that I meet later in life and marriage and children.
 
This is fun ! Famous is a general term and "I" was not famous in that sense but famous in the way that "I" was in an environment where fame was ( people, geographically ) so I don't know if that counts but never mind, I wanna do this too :)

1. No
Someone with fame had a nickname for "me" and I could not find it anywhere Then a very close friend of his wrote that it was his friend's special nickname for "me", it was not in articles, just this friend remembering it. You don't wanna know all the ways I had tried before to type, search that nickname thinking it was a short and peculiar name for parents to name their child :rolleyes:

2. No.
I ran from it. :eek: They wanted me to be a model when I was a kid and growing up, but I didn't wanna. I was uncomfortable, cornered when people would say I was pretty and touch my head or hair. I had flashbacks later in life of a man from past life doing that to her and he was obsessed by her looks which she never got because there were pretty, beautiful girls everywhere, around them but he was hooked on her. He was jealous and "owned" her and she was tense, just a little afraid but tried to fake it as if she was not. Sorry, I sound like a party pooper:oops:

The time frame was always familiar to me in the way that I felt at home in older people's homes that still had things from that era. I still miss certain things I know was used then :)

I have caught myself being for a few seconds surprised in my current life why guests are in my kitchen ( which I would/will never let them know ).

"I" used to have a small kitchen and the dining table was always outside the kitchen.

Further back in time having been a female the kitchen was only the place where the one doing the dinner was, not guests.

3. Yes, but I did not want to ha ha... ( nightmare, flashbacks, meditation ) . Looking and finding validating proof to myself from her private memories in books, photographs, films. I was never in it to proof it to someone else. I have had a hard time just proving it to myself and although I am still almost sure there is always the question for other answers how this could be.

4. Overwhelmed. Many thoughts. Many emotions. Love. Grief. A relief that I was not making it up, that I was no lunatic. Still not 100% convinced. Those kind of thoughts, still have them at times.

Still troublesome when the past kept pulling me back, when there was no finish to the story. Not as focused in my own identity and life because the other life was like a shadow that now and then made/make it self known with flashbacks that I could/can not control.

A relief that people close to me that had passed on was then maybe not gone but that the spirit still lives :)

Interesting questions.

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
Yes, since I was a little girl I like rock music, so inevitably I had to listen to her name many times. When I was a teenager I went to tribute band concerts. It was crazy to see all the people screaming her name! That name always seemed like a familiar name to me, but I never investigated her life in depth.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Line of work, no. I never liked his band. I never felt a positive feeling listening to his music. In fact, I can never finish hearing an album, so I stopped trying to listen to their songs. Way of life, maybe. I feel the same way, my personality remains the same. Country or era... Yes! Definitely yes.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
Yes.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
It wasn't easy for me to accept that I was that person. First I began to deny the evidence. I kept meditating, searching, and connecting things to prove it was true. I was happy when I managed to resolve some of my past traumas. I also understood that no matter how famous a person is, there are always problems. Usually people see success, glory, and fame, but behind that there can be a lot of suffering.

Nowadays I think of famous people as simply ordinary people. Of course if you look across the spectrum there are some extraordinary deeds sometimes, both good and bad, but I also think its a bit of a quirk of fate which means one person acquires fame or notoriety, while others of a similar lifestyle are lost into obscurity.

The good part of fame, from a research perspective, is that there may be plentiful data of various types available to study. The bad side is that there's a belief that the deceased are long since turned to dust, and so it's ok to say all manner of things about them. To be fair, even the living, once in the public eye, can be subjected to endless scrutiny, their lives analysed like a laboratory specimen, with scarcely a thought that they are people.

Some are elevated to virtual sainthood while others are condemned for their flaws, but I tend to think for the most part these assessments tend to reflect something else, they tell something about the society or perhaps the individual from which the assessments originate, rather than giving any particular insight about the subject.
 
Yes, I think famous people are ordinary people. Many times in the forum I have expressed my opinion on this. I forgot to say that what I said was my personal experience and my opinion according to what I lived, obviously. I'm sorry if I fell into victimhood, or if I "sanctified" famous past lives. My point was to be neutral on the subject. I'll be more careful when I talk about generalities.

I agree.
 
@Thyme - There's no need to apologise for expressing your views, I understood it was your opinion and reflecting your own experiences.

Actually I'm nowadays irritated that I still find occasional references to my own past life, deceased more than a century ago. It bugs me because they often distort the facts and reinterpret things differently every few years, so many different opinions as time goes by, that's why I consider it really doesn't illuminate the past at all, it only describes present-day obsessions.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
Yes I had. Very very surprised to tell you the truth as I was always drawn to Richard III and I thought I would have been just the serving girl or someone, I was Elizabeth of York and married to Henry Tudor. He was one of my first recalls and I had a shock seeing him.


2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching? Yes I still do but as I’m currently still undergoing PLR, i cannot do much reading and I have to get someone else to check my recalls, dreams and visions.


3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
I was always drawn to Medieval and Tudor England. I had flash backs at a couple of castles in the past.


4. How did you feel when you worked it out? Very very surprised as I did not remember Henry Tudor at all at first.
I knew I’d had several past lives and this one seemed important.
I don’t think Henry Tudor or myself (Elizabeth of York) are famous as such but I was there with Richard III and he, well everyone knows whom he is/was. I was just happy I discovered some things and how they are affecting this life.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?

Yes. I always knew who they were even in my research when I was in my teens.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

Yes. I knew that life was simple back then and there was no such thing as money ( Ancient Egypt)

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

Always loved sand and big open, spread out castles. Also loved Ancient Egypt and the royal families close to King Tutankhaten (-amun)

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

Pretty shocked. I mean, being still admired after 3,400 years is pretty compelling.

I have had two, although one was not "famous" until after her death and many centuries had passed. The other is so convoluted today as to who she was, what I remember and what is told is not really the same thing. Like Speedwell, it's all in a manner of looking. The second life I missed my family more than the work I was remembered for.


1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
No, didn't know anything about her at all. American teaches very little about Eastern cultures./Sort of, but not explicitly a name so much as a title/deeds.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Other then very Americianzied Chinese food and decor that had nothing to do with the time period, no. When they found the place where she lived in archeology, I was asked about it but it took 4 or 5 years before I was even curious to look at the site at all. So no interest, and still very little./Sort of. I was always very interested in her line of work even before I knew what it really was and was drawn to things from it and knew what they were for even though I had no connection to it in this life.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
A Buddhist temple had an item of hers on loan (she was not Buddhist...lived before it occurred) as a cultural exhibit...I told a monk about the item in passing relating whose it was (it was labeled with the Dynasty not as a personal effect) and a bit of its history. He investigated and had the aha moment, I did not./I told my mother I was her when I was 2. As I got older, I went to where she lived and freaked out a tour guide from the knowledge I should not have had (and got kicked off the tour and offered more then my fee back)...there has been many incidences from childhood on that are hard to explain if I was not her.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
Extremely disturbed. I will admit I am her sometimes, mostly I don't mention it or mention it in generalities./If I think about her, mostly sad for me in THIS life, lol. She had a large close family and I have none except my children and husband since my parent died.
 
I recently found this old thread. Thought I'd add my answer here in case it helps someone in the future, because this thread definitely helped me a lot when I was still coming to terms with my FPL.

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
No. I had written down everything I remembered about myself before doing any research into the time period. So I knew my first name, nickname, approx. year of birth, and the major events of my life, etc.

When I was doing some research about the historical era, I came across someone on Wikipedia that looked familiar, had my name and a similar life story. But I was in denial (“perhaps I wasn’t him but knew him, surely I wasn't famous”) until I verified details that only he could have known.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
Yes. My interest in all things German and communist started triggering memories which led me to look into my past lives.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

I came across a photo of my FPL walking around a prison yard (he’d been arrested by the Nazis and put into solitary confinement) while researching him. I’d previously felt a connection to this man and our life details matched up, but I wasn’t 100% convinced I was him until I saw that photo. The location was exactly the same as I remembered, and in the photo I was doing exactly what I did in my memory. It was eerie because I wasn’t aware of a photographer at the time; it was a high security prison.

Later I was scrolling through a documentary of my life, not listening but looking for visual triggers. There was a photo of me and my wife. I remembered sitting for the photo on an uncomfortable chair (and overthinking about said chair during the photoshoot because I found taking photos to be insufferably boring). It was really weird seeing a personal photograph in a documentary published by a German tv station, but that hammered in the fact that I was famous.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
I was nervous and was shaking for the rest of the night. Later, I was happy I found who I was, and a sort of relief/closure at solving the puzzle. Also felt extremely grateful because I would be able to find a lot of information on myself, even if most of it wasn’t too accurate (history is written by the people who live).

For example, a certain sleazy politician had always gotten under my skin in my past life. Recently I found out he had betrayed his fellow communists to Stalin in order to spare his own life during the Purge in 1937 (I was imprisoned by the Nazis and later executed so I had no idea at the time). Then he had the gall to write in his memoirs decades later that my friend, who was killed by Stalin in the same purge, was the "thoroughly corrupt person"! Unfortunately the East German government also tried to erase the existance of my friend because he was my 2nd-in-command and it wouldn't fit nicely in their propaganda narrative, so there are hardly any traces of him these days.

A small part of me is proud of having made it into the history books. But mostly I’m mortified that post-WW2, East Germany repurposed my image and ideals for propaganda. They even made films that portray me as a literal hero. I try not to think about that because it’s embarrassing and I know my flaws all too well.

No.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

Yes. When i was a child i used to write plays and perform them on an empty loading dock at my dads work. (my writing was scribbles but i'd be in my room workin' hard haha) I'd always been interested in Ireland. Don't tell anyone but i used to steal books about Ireland from the school libraries when i was in school. :D
I always tried to write books also, and seemed to be frustrated and i'd trash everything i wrote. I dabble here and there but nothing great. I'm currently a single-mom of 2 boys... so quite a different lifestyle and i'm absolutely okay with it. (aside from the being a female part but that's for another day)

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

I've got quite a few memories. But, I've got to be honest, even with the amount of evidence found.. i still have a hard time believing it. I'm just me and i'd rather not see that life as a 'famous pl' but as much as i don't like it, it's somewhat true.... i guess? No one would know this guy from adam these days. haha I'd want one person to really know and she'd have nothing to do with me anyways.. "not this guy again..." :D

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

oof. I had a dream one night that was pretty realistic. I had to go sign some paperwork in this dream and i was just getting out of a vehicle and walking into a building. I waited for a bit and was presented with some papers to sign. I signed them and it was done. I mean... simple dream. I woke up that morning and had to actually sign some insurance paperwork and lo and behold i signed the wrong name. I didn't realise it until I scanned it, then I thought. well, that's a bit odd. I knew my pl first name so i decided to google search it. Boy, i was in shock when i saw that ugly mug on google images. I closed out of it and paced for a long while, my heart was racing.

I decided i didn't want to search it myself... i don't know if i was scared or what. I just left it at that, i was quite content with how my reincarnation research was going just trying to understand it as a whole. I made a friend while taking Jim Matlock's reincarnation course and she decided to help me out. She found photos of people i had dreams of since i was a young child. Seeing their faces again was just .. is there even a word for it?! It was amazing, sad, and shocking....

It hasn't been that long, but I'm still iffy about all of it. All of the memories i had mentioned to my parents when i was young, a lot of things i did growing up made sense in a weird roundabout way. I've got terrible gender dysphoria and it really helped me understand that. I don't know everything about this fella and i don't care to read about him. So that's where I'm at currently.
 
1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?

Yes. I had.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?

Yes.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?

I've had clear memories since I was a small child, but it was only in 2017, following a somewhat bizarre occurrence one day, that I was actually stopped in my tracks and I finally thought hang on a minute, I need to start paying attention here because this is something. . .

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?

I felt ok, it all made sense. Some of the memories that have come to me SINCE finding out have been very difficult and emotional, but it's all part of the journey.
 
Speaking on behalf of one of my friends. She was not exactly famous but she was on the spotlight, for her sister was an infamous murderer. She is described as The Most Evil Woman In Britain.

1) She had never heard of her past self's name before, because here, Crime Cases are not talked about, International cases for that matter.

2) She had always been drawn to the place she used to live. Back then.

3) When the memories surfaced, everything was very detailed and she was just a child, not even a teenager yet, so as I grew older, I did my research and everything matched and I, also, connected the dots. So, that's on me.

4) She, in fact, is not leading a peaceful life and is still dreaming of her sister and her boyfriend, as well as her former husband. Something that messes with her head.

I don't believe at this point that I was a famous person, but I'm quite sure I knew someone who was famous.

1. When I saw them for the first time this time around, I was spooked. Almost frightened by them. A very dark, ominous feeling that repelled me immediately, like something "bad" had happened there and it'd be safer to get away and not look at what happened. Tried to forget about them for a few years, but couldn't get them out of my mind, and ultimately came back to them with a lot of curiosity. I wanted to know more, and I certainly learned a lot. It was a very emotional and haunting experience.

2. Absolutely. In fact, it was my interest in these things that sort of brought me back to this person. I held on to all of those things and maintained a firm interest in them, and once I found this person again, there was this sudden feeling of closure. "Found you". Like I'd been looking for something my whole life, missing something, and this was it.

3. Part of what sealed the deal for me was finally seeing images/videos of things that I'd had floating around in my mind inexplicably for a long time. Certain patterns, shapes, rooms, areas, and then through this person, finding their real-life equivalent. Especially a specific night club that had a very specific pattern on the walls/floor, and then realizing that it was in the very city that I felt that weird connection to. Then it was just a series of "found you", "found it", "found it", "there it is", "so that's where it went", etc.

4. Mixed feelings. I still leave room for doubt because I know I can be prone to wishful thinking sometimes. I'm happy I found them again and I learned some very important lessons in this life through listening to what they have to say "again" with new perspective. I feel deeply sad knowing I may never have a friend like this ever again, and knowing that either way, I've forgotten almost everything. I miss them and regret that things soured and ended on such a sad note for both of us. I don't know which one of us screwed up, or if it was both of us, or neither of us and it was just a circumstantial thing. Looking at them now gives me that same feeling of looking at old photos of family members or friends who've passed away...familiar, uncanny, sad. Bittersweetness. I can't help but wonder why things had to be this way, sometimes.
 
I'm new to accepting this possible past life (the only one that I know of!) but it was a SLIGHTLY famous life, seeing as in life he and his brother had a good deal of notoriety--though only as doctors for the rich--and after death, they became an exciting bit of "true crime" (no crime was committed but no one knew this initially) so I'm just going to answer this questions for funsies even though I barely apply to this questions (any other absolutely minor celebs out here?):

1. Had you heard of the name of your pl before you knew you'd been that person?
-No, not at all! This is how minor this person was haha.

2. Did you have an interest in their line of work/way of life/country or era they lived in prior to researching?
-I initially wanted to go into medicine, and even volunteered at an animal clinic in my younger years, however I am bad at math, so I never pursued that path despite very much enjoying biology, particularly genetics (hmm, fertility doctor past life). Funny enough, I think that my past life's secret may have been that he was ALSO not the best at math, but his twin, who it is confirmed handled the business side of things for the two of them, was better at it, so no problem. The two were known for switching and having opposite strengths and weaknesses (even used opposite hands) so this would come at no surprise. AS far as where they lived, yes, I was very attracted to the east coast, and would always picture the city when listening to certain music, which I can't listen to often because I get too sad. As far as era, I definitely have highly retro music taste (amongst other retro sensibilities) that connects to his time periods.

3. Was there any one moment that made you believe you'd lived that life or a series of evidence/memories?
-Not one particular moment, but several moments. I am not sure which one caused my cup of skepticism to spill over into tentative belief. I would say that the several moments I experienced leaned towards a series of evidence, more accurately described as a series of synchronicities and deja vu, though I have had some memory-esque dreams and when I try to write about them (I'm a writer) I find myself making guesses that later prove accurate, etc. I did feel a remarkable sense of recognition upon finally seeing the photos of the brothers, though. That's ONE pivotal moment I can mention. One reason the photos struck me were that we share a similarly dead gaze. Admittedly. That doesn't sound very flattering, but unfortunately both brothers had very detached eyes, and accounts from those that new them seem to confirm that there was a degree of distance between them and the rest of the world. Relatable. I've always been attracted to people with these eyes, in this life, which I felt was a bit narcissistic haha. I was once even turned off by a guy having too much "spark" in his eyes. I just want to feel understood, though. I think. Anyway, I have tried to draw the few photos that exist (black and white newspaper photos) and they turn out surprisingly accurate surprisingly easily every time. It feels as relaxed as drawing my own face, they ended up being amongst my favorite drawings I've ever done.

4. How did you feel when you worked it out?
-Really really sad on account of the loss of a brother. But also amused because I always said that if I had a past life, surely it would have been as a misogynystic man. I'm not sure that everyone would agree that he was a misogynist, seeing as his life's work was in helping women, and very successfully until things went haywire. However, he was somewhat unethical with his female patients towards the end of his life, albeit while under the influence of drugs. Nevertheless, I would not be surprised if I was absolutely right about the fact that I am female now to make up for my careless actions as a man. I enjoy being female, it isn't that I view my sex itself as punishment at all. It's just that I have always had the suspicion that I was some variety of male jerk in the past, I don't remember when the notion first occurred to me. But I do have a "frat boy alter ego" I indulge in sometimes when I'm not feeling great (I have a playlist haha), and I found out that my suspected pl was a frat boy at one point.
