It would be ideal for us all to have a collective dream one night that we are in a chicken or cow body about to be slaughtered.

Flying has got to be one of the best experiences.

It would terrify me to come back as an animal; I saw a website that said people could come back as the very primitive life forms that exist near volcanic trenches deep under the ocean and that this might be perceived as Hell. I didn't swallow it but it gave me a restless night for sure!

I wouldn't mind coming back as an athletic dog who got taken for lots of happy walks, given decent food and allowed to have sex. And who lived with someone who loved (me) and let me share their bed on cold nights....

Those creatures who live near volcanic trenches are maybe very happy where they live? It is warm and they have nutrients....They don't ask for much in this life. Maybe it's not hell. Maybe it's heaven for them....

Id find the idea of losing all the relatively modest intelligence in this life and all the memories as well as being little more than non existence.

I don't find reincarnation as anyone or anything else remotely appealing; the I that I am now will still be extinguished

It worries me that my mum and dad will reincarnate so that I still won't see them again in just the same sense as no life after death.

I think I would prefer Eternal Recurrence or Cheating The Ferryman theory!

The mediums don't seem to say so much about it mind? The NDEs don't offer any insight either way and ghosts IF REAL obviously contradict it.

Anywy, Im off to bed; hopefully I will stay be me in the morning and not Dr Zaius or Gentle Ben

I have a vivid memory being a wolf in a past life.

I was told I was a large sea creature that hasn't been seen in thousands of years. But, I don't remember this life. I am, however, very drawn to the sea. When I'm there, I feel at home. I'm always driven to be in water. I live in a climate and location in which this is possible, so I'm lucky. I go to the beach often, and I'm thrilled to go every single time. It never gets old. I feel like it's unfortunate that I can't stay there all the time. There's a longing for it when I'm away. When I'm there, I spend almost every moment in the water or under it, chasing small fish or scanning the ground for interesting things.

Could be coincidental that I just happen to love the sea or maybe I really was a sea creature before. I'd be interested in finding out.

Usually animals live much shorter lives than humans, with the exception of tortoises and parrots. I wonder if we can sometimes reincarnate as a family members pet cat or dog. I'm not sure about reincarnating as a pig or sheep as more of those are being created now for food purposes, but I'm certain we can come back as animals living anything from a few days to several years between our human lives.

After all, there are many animals, for example dogs, who act in much more loving ways than many humans, not sure of the karma there??

I do think it's possible that we could have been other types of beings in past lives, animals included.

Life is progressive. Once you are in the Human Sphere you either incarnate as a human, or if you're a very advanced soul and have learnt all earth's lessons, you'd incarnate into the next (higher) sphere.
