When does a soul enter the body?

Before I was born and in the process of planning my life contract, it all sounded like the perfect solution. That's the problem. Once we are in "heaven" we forget just how horrible it is here. So in theory it was a good plan, I just forgot how much physical, emotional, spiritual PAIN I would have to go through.

Yes, I know what you mean. "Down here" it's much harder than it looks!

But how do you know that the plan was that your mother would keep you and she made a decision not to--and the subsequent pain that you endured because of that?

I also wonder if that were true--that you re-thought your life plan, then your mother would have been successful and you wouldn't be here. It is a testament to your own strength and confidence in your own ability to turn this into a learning experience.

I feel that I had issues with losing my spiritual mentor. I had strong memories of a past-life mentor. I was his "trainee" for most of my life--learning about healing and plants and life. But when he died, even at a young age, I just couldn't get over the death. I didn't have the faith that I could do these spiritual things on my own, without him. Which, when you think about it---is pretty darn important.

So in this life, my mother was my spiritual mentor but at 7 was committed for schizophrenia and was never in my life after that. I assume that the plan was that way so that I didn't depend on her too much. And her psychological imbalance made sure that didn't happen.

But it's been a B to get over it again!! Not sure I'm great at this lesson, but I just keep chipping away at it through lives.

At least that's how I put it together today. It can change.

So, I'm just encouraging you in your own analysis. It's tough thing to "put yourself through"---but somewhere there is a deeper reason why you did it this way. I don't know the answer to it. But bless you for working at it.

At conception.

I have womb memories. People say it's impossible. But I have them. I'm 100% sure of them.

The soul is in the body in the womb. And since the soul is the spark of life, I'm convinced that the soul is there immediately upon conception.

That's you, but it is just as likely thhat each situation is different. Many say the gestation period is boring. Others want to be with their parents for the extra time. Some, supposedly, don't come in for months.

I believe you have memories. I have a few. But that might not be a hard and fast rule. Just sayin' it's possible also.

I have always felt from the day my daughter was born that when I look into her eyes there is definitely something deeper and possibly older. she has always gotten comments on her eyes. just as sea-dove said it was as if she was looking right into you and your soul. I even remember one time we were just hanging out and she couldn't have been a month or two old and I said "i see you in there" and her pupils dilated immediately. gave me chills.
