✨ past life regression for anonymous (1)
hello, firstly thank you for your generous donation and equally thank you for your patience surrounding the time this long reading took to complete. i have tried my hardest to delve into the cards and your past life as efficiently as i was able.
disclaimer: i do not practice karma, but this deck does have a card associated with karma to present challenges that have extended into current life. i was not aware of this prior to purchasing. i do not condone the appropriation of karma, and completely believe that you cannot separate it from its original context.
death (how and/or where you died).
card drawn: dreamworld (reversed).
the dreamworld is the one "major arcana" (i say that loosely as this is an oracle) that is not included in the layout of this spread. it's interesting that the single remaining major card was what was drawn for this - i believe it is to highlight that you died in the astral. it signifies a death of the spirit, rather than a death of the body. perhaps your spirit was the first to rot and perish in a place that was dreamlike and ethereal - but this begs the question, did you have a body to begin with? i'm getting a pull towards the notion that you were a a spirit, specifically an elemental spirit. perhaps you were the spirit of a breath of wind or a spirit that helped flowers bloom; but this card does make one thing clear, you did not suffer in a way that was abstract to what you existed as. you began life as a spirit, and you faded away as a spirit.
the bird houses (creativity, knowledge, relationship with the earth, disciplines).
cards drawn: nine of trees, the dreamer, the mender, nine of lotuses.
the cards drawn here indicate that your realm involved that of dreams, both in the context of sleep and also in the context of goals. you liked to see things grow to their full potential. you were someone who was creative and resourceful, you knew how to grow things and you knew how to make things flourish. you were able to use your mind for making the world, your world, a better place; you had a centre in you that was made of compassion, and you were explorative and curious. you were like a breeze of bouncy wind; examining where you were, and helping it become something that grew forth and became luxurious. you also had a good head on your shoulders; you knew how to balance the delicate, near-fragile nature of dreams, as well as remain grounded when needed. this helped you remain realistic about how to make your world become its best.
the spirit houses (spirituality, lovers, homelife, strengths and truths).
cards drawn: the composer, ace of trees, eight of birds reversed, five of birds reversed.
it seems you believed in the inner harmony of all things. that was what lay deep in your soul; what you devoted to. a spirit who wanted balance, and tried to imbue it in everything it touched. you wanted everything to blossom, and you wanted everything to grow - not from a desire to make something complete and perfect and grown, but to make something reach its fullest, happiest potential. many were drawn to you for that, particular spirits who wanted to witness what how you could make them whole. you had an airiness and a flourishing, nurturing energy - and that magnetised many other spirits to you!
this nurturing energy did come from something, though. a desire for a proper environment. perhaps you were once trapped in a tight, decrepit space - where your metaphorical vines and leaves tried so desperately to find light, and ultimately, you had to escape that environment. you flew into the whips of wind and let it take you where you needed to go, and now, you will never trap another spirit again. you will let others be as free as they deserve, and grow as big as they need to. you wanted that.
the cycle houses (connection to your soul, career and interests, spiritual debts and challenges, sorrows and misfortunes).
cards drawn: two of birds, the elementalist reversed, the wanderer, the weaver.
the connection this life has to you is how you spend your time. do you rip things apart in your rage of the trappings you've previously felt? or do you spend time tending to things, growing things, nurturing things? this part of your spirit seems to call out in both sorrow and excitement. additionally, something your previous life understood is you cannot create or flourish, without necessary destruction. the elements and nature often replicate this; through fire damaging forests, new life grows. you fully accepted at life and death were not separate; they were tangled in one another, and thus, they were tangled in you. you do not have any spiritual challenges outside of what i've mentioned from the previous life bleeding into your current - however, do you feel inspired to create from time to time? to grow a little garden of your own, literally or non-literally? perhaps you're someone who enjoys speaking what you desire into reality - and that in its own can come with challenges. being a creator of a new reality can be a heavy burden to bear, and every time you create something new, you must remember to properly parent it - be it a wish, or a creative endeavor, or life such as a plant. beings continue to rely on you.
