Past Life Reading and Questions Answered for breezey9290
Archaeologists and geologists disagree over the precise dating of the volcanic explosion and tsunami in which you died in the earlier of two lifetimes that Greyfox saw for you. The closest I can come with any confidence is between 3,500 and 4,000 years ago. It was in the Aegean, the “lost” civilization that early archaeologists called “Minoan,” after the legendary King Minos.

artifacts and motifs of the period.

A couple of centuries before you lived there, a great earthquake or series of earthquakes destroyed the Palace of Knossos and did extensive damage to the cities of your civilization. They had been rebuilt and that destruction had largely receded into legends, not only in your own culture but others in the region, with whom your people had active widespread trade.
Decoration carved in stone, engraved in
metals or painted on walls and artifacts
often feature spirals and flowing lines.Your father in that lifetime was a wine merchant. He was emotionally distant and had no apparent attachment to you. He presented you and a sister to the temple to be priestesses. His pretended motive was piety, but his true motivation was more devious. Your mother had died of a fever, and your father was a miserly social climber. Giving you up to the temple conferred status on him at the same time it gave him two fewer mouths to feed, and probably a better chance at a new wife of higher status.
The double axe was a common
religious symbol in Minoan culture.You were a preteen when you entered training for the priesthood. You had mixed feelings about it, but your feelings were not considered. As a priestess, you were treated better. You had good clothes and ate well, but chafed at the regimentation. You did not have much time to settle into that lifestyle.
Murals and carvings from that culture
depict dancers using a type of rattle called
a sistrum. This one is made of clay.You were just coming into sexual maturity when your life ended along with your civilization as the volcano now known as Santorini exploded and created gigantic tsunamis. The following description comes from Elaine Meinel Supkis. More info can be found on Wikipedia.A pillar of smoke during the day and a pillar of fire at night. Day becomes night. The sea pulls back, fish, bottom crawling animals, shell creatures, exposed, helpless, the people on the shores, full of wonder, then a deafening roar, like a god gone mad, a howl of tremendous rage and the white pillar turns pitch black and a green wall crowned in white appears on the horizon and rapidly moves forwards even as the sun is blacked out by even faster moving clouds that rain hot pumice and lightning bolts shooting in all directions and the sea towers overhead as it roars onshore and everything is swept away…In a subsequent incarnation, you lived in China during the twelfth century. You were the only girl in a peasant family of five children. There was a great drought and famine. Your family was on the verge of starvation when your father smothered you in your sleep, in an attempt to make the resources go further. He lied to your mother, claiming that you had simply died mysteriously.
Your death didn’t help the family. Your mother suspected your father of killing you, but he never admitted it. He felt terrible guilt over it, and the emotional shadow added to the misery of their material hardship. They all starved eventually.
You asked me about three men in your life now. The boyfriend with whom you had recently broken up has no past life association with you. The person to whom you referred by initials was your father in that China incarnation. That would be a conflicted relationship, a strong connection, a karmic bond. Forgiveness and understanding are the only way to deal with it.
The other man was a priestess along with you in the Minoan incarnation. This too, your having died together in that cataclysm, could create a powerful bond, probably of friendship, companionship, and shared philosophies, maybe even some mutual fears or phobias. Whether it would be the basis for a romance would depend on the current chemistry, but he could turn out to be a good buddy.
You also asked me about your calling or career. If you are interested enough in biology to complete the course work, it is probably as good as any other field of study. I think it could be a basis for continued study, a point from which to explore in as many directions as you wish. I don’t see you ever completing your education. Growing up, finishing school and settling into a career is what the majority of the young to mature souls in this culture do. Old souls tend to do things differently. If Spirit calls you in one direction, or in a succession of different directions, you will feel it. Follow where interest and curiosity lead.
That is the answer, too, to your last question, about spirituality. The way you expressed your question tells me that you already know that the correct path is to follow your inner guidance. The difficulties you described suggest that where you are “stuck” is in the Beta brainwave state. You need to spend some time in Theta or low Alpha. Meditation is one way to slow your brainwave frequency, and there are quicker and easier ways. Read the Shamanic Path FAQ. …and let us know if we can be of further service.
