Time of death

Just curious as to when it is decided when a person dies ? Does the person before they reincarnate choose their time of death, or does the higher self just decide the time of death a day or two or even a couple of years in advance ?

thanks for any thoughts

Sometimes it's a certain date.
Sometimes it's a certain location.
Sometimes it's a certain type of death.
Nothing is really set in stone but there are plans.

Some souls incarnate mainly to experience a type of death. Be it for its own purpose and/or for the purpose of other souls experiencing grief.

You decide what you experience unless you have karmic debts.

I've read in numerous books over the years that "all time exists now". I've also seen into the future a few times, so at some very visceral level this must be so. If this is the case, then when we're born we've already died. Then we would indeed know ahead of time when, what and where..... but then there's this clumsy thing called "free will".

If everything is set and can't be changed then why bother playing-it-out in a day-to-day way? But if things are indeed changeable then how could the "end" possibly be pre-determined?

The subject itself is a conundrum.... We either know or we don't, we either plan or we wing-it.. we wake-up with each day as perhaps our last on this plane, or we extend into the future in ways that are mold-able, and reshape and reset both potential and outcome?

Conclusion...? I'm thinking that it's some-what above our current pay-grade, to know with any certainty, how this actually unfolds while we're physical. :^)

I'm with this mindset.

What I can say is my husband was killed the day the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released its findings on the Ford Explorer being a danger due to lack of proper support in the columns results in head crush deaths ...

My husband was killed in a Ford Explorer when the roof collapsed during a roll over & he died from blunt force head crush ...

The time of his death was slightly under the wire; just before midnight ...

Yes, I firmly believe that we reincarnate with a Life Plan or blueprint for our journey in the physical, which includes the time, place and manner of death.... Our soul/spirit knows when it is their time to go Home and voila--they go home....it is part of the contract...

I don't think anyone decides when the time of death is going to be, we just simply die, just like we are born.

I think there is only a reason when we put one to it, there is so called rhythm in life, but it doesn't play to our beat, we can only go along with it, and of course enjoy the dance wherever it takes us.......yea the rhythm of life is a powerful thing....da da da, you know that song.
