Interestingly, I felt similarly concerning Germany and had that longing that shadows mentioned for a long time, from my childhood into my teens. I ended up living there for a short while and after some experiences there and a short time since I feel a bit differently, but I'm quite familiar with that feeling of belonging and ended up discovering at least one past life there. While I don't have any personal experience with spirit guides or guardian angels, I definitely think there was a part of me that was driving me towards there and responding to those urges and following up led me to some self-discovery.
Nowadays, I don't feel like I need to make my home in Germany any longer (not that I wouldn't want to go, I've a lot of friends there and a trip would probably be fun and less ...weird) but I do feel like I'm waiting for some people and that keeps me online and looking. Whether I'm 'meant' to find them, either by my own will or maybe even attracted a little by theirs, I guess I'll have to find that one out. I got into the reincarnation community in the first place because I was looking for others from pl experiences and even though I haven't necessarily found them yet, I've met a ton of great people and learned a lot along the way so I'm happy to keep at it. For the most part I've learned that when I'm presented with feelings like that, longing and what-have-you, action is the best choice.
