1. No. Not at all.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
2. Yes! Since I was a child (line of work) and I always wanted to live in America. Never felt like Australia was home. Still doesn’t. But I wasn’t interested in her era, (didn’t know much about ‘The Golden Age’ and the American way of life in the 1920’s - way before more time), other than loving Jazz and piano music. Wanted to live in NYC after my first trip there. Cried on the plane on the way home in front of my husband. Didn’t want to leave. If I didn’t have kids, I would’ve bought an apartment there. Brooklyn was my favourite place, too. The energy I felt there was incredible. And within a week after my first trip to NYC, I discovered who she was.
3. Absolutely astonished at first. It was a shock! Then I felt a sense of relief to know her identity and learn more about her life. She was born and raised in Brooklyn. Freaky first connection!
4. Despite feeling ecstatic to know who she was, the more I read about her, the less I wanted to know. It was quite scary in the beginning. I wasn’t quite sure what to think. Felt too much identifying with someone so similar to myself. It was a very emotional experience. A struggle for a while. I remember having to take deep breaths before reading the next page of her biography. I made copious notes of the connections and similarities between us. The similarities and parallels between our lives were uncanny (quite specific, not general) and it started from the moment we were both born. She almost died at birth. I did too, with the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck. Both born during a heatwave (she was born in July, I was born in December) and it goes on from there… Major milestones/life events achieved around the same age and time, married to a good man and we both had sons. We both had two boys (similar age difference between them) at the time of discovery. I’ve since had another son later in life. We had similar childhoods. Our parents divorced at a young age, I was also a tomboy like her. Mum wished I was a boy and dressed me like one. Have photos to prove this.
Very similar personalities, emotional reactions, behaviours and mannerisms, shared interests, intellect, similar personal relationships and problems with friendships, health issues somewhat similar, owned similar number and style of properties (beach house, country/ranch, city pad). Same height (similar body, look in the eyes, expression, we both have big brown eyes), and even same (small) shoe size. I can also cry easily on the spot like her. Not sure if I can do the Charleston. Haven’t tried it. And the list goes on…. Interestingly, my mother has very similar character and personality traits to her mother. A bit scary! But this woman from the past was a famous movie actress in her heyday and I’m just an ordinary woman who loves family life and would prefer privacy over fame any day of the week. It’s almost like I’ve been there, done that! I’ve lived quite differently (mainly as a busy corporate housewife, but always on the go travelling OS atleast 3 or 4 times a year for the last 20 years), yet somehow it feels very similar to her hectic lifestyle in the past, but without the fame and publicity in mine. Neither of us have gone without in a financial sense, and with the knowledge I have of her now, I’m even more inclined to follow a similar life path to hers if I choose to pursue it further with my writing. I’ve had visions of what it looks like and a sense of what is to come. So I need to be very careful about the choice I make for personal reasons and how it might impact my family. Life certainly comes full circle with her in it and I feel very fortunate for the experience. Despite the pl memories, I consider our connection to be a beautiful friendship more than anything else. We share a special kind of bond that’s unbreakable.
