Introduction and Background

Past life healing by the Abundance of Light method is all explained in the tutorials elsewhere on this site. All I am doing is rephrasing everything in my own words in the hope that it may help those who are perhaps confused or uncertain.

Past life healing is based on the theories of reincarnation, ie, the belief that we, as souls, reincarnate into physical form over and over again, in the hope of growing, experiencing certain sensations and ultimately, becoming fully ascended beings.

The problems began when we forgot who we were in past incarnations and got caught up in the game of physical existence. Things like fear, pain, power, sex, wealth, etc, began to occupy our thoughts and take all our energy away from love. Every instance in one of our past lives when we did, or had done to us, anything that was not of love, we set up an attachment, or "cord", that keeps us entrenched in more of the same thing.

The idea of past life cord cutting is to find the cords on the etheric plane, by finding a past life, and ask for them to be cut. As the cords are cut, the particular event that it was tied to can no longer affect you in this life. It does not matter what the event was, whether it was the time you tortured someone to death, or the time you stole a bag of figs at a Bedouin market, the cords can be cut, releasing you from guilt reactions (call it Karma if you wish) and making you that bit more free.

The only cords that can not be cut are cords of love.

FAQ

Who cuts the cords?

Not sure, but it is done when you ask for it. Some people ask the Archangel Michael to cut them, others ask God, the Angels or Jesus Christ. Whover you have a good rapport with on the "other side" is fine.

Can you see or feel these cords?

Those who have good psychic skills report seeing grey coloured cords, like spagetti growing from their etheric bodies, with the cords of love being golden.

Do the cords grow back?

No. However, after they are cut, sometimes similar ones come up that were previously hidden and then become exposed ready to be cut. Some people have many layers of cords.

Is it dangerous to cut cords; do you have to replace them with something else?

It is not dangerous. No ill effects have been found. Generally only a few layers can be cut in any one day. After this a person can get a bit drained of energy.

How many past lives have I done?

Most people have done many, very many.

What will cord cutting do for me?

It can make you feel happier, lighter, more enegetic. Also it can get rid of phobia's, fears and self destructive habits.




Communicating with Spirit

It does not matter what "Spirit" means to you, it may be God, or Mother Earth, your personal guide, or "The Universe", Allah, Jesus or the Angels. Really they are all one or at leaast part of the one and only universal life force. I won't pretend to know or understand what it is exactly. In order to do healings for yourself or others, you need a way to communicate with this Spirit. It, they, are there ready to help us heal and it helps to know what they are telling you.

There are many ways you can communicate with spirit and it is a matter of developing a way that best suits you. Don't give up if it does not work at first.

These are some of the ways you can communicate with spirit. Please message me on my board on message board with new ways if you know of one.

Pendulum

This is what I use and I am quite happy with it.

I developed this abilty from a position of strong skepticism, yet it worked. So there must be something in it! This is how I did it.

Get a pendulum. You can buy a nice crystal one on a chain, or make your own with a bolt on a piece of string. It does not matter. A chain is good because it does not tend to spin like string does. The length should be around 15-25cm (6-10 inches).

Now there are different ideas about what should be yes or no, or maybe. Some people add in answers like "more information needed" or "rephrase your question", but really, I think this is far too complicated. I like the simple, "Yes" and "No". I use round and round in a circle meaning "yes" and back and forth meaning "no". And I don't mind if the circle is clockwise or anti clockwise, whichever way it goes is yes to me.

Once you have decided which system to use, start off by chatting to your guide or angel, God/goddess or whomever you wish to talk to. Ask firstly to be cleansed of any negative energy, and to remove any lower energies that may be hanging around you. Then tell them that you want to set up this system of communicating and that you want (say) round and round on the pendulum to mean "yes". Hold up your pendulum and hold it still. Ask them to do a yes for you. Maybe nothing will happen, maybe there will be a tiny swing. It may take a little while for the swing to get going. Then try a "no". It took me several days of this before i could seriously say that I was getting yes's and no's. The swings were still small, just 5-10mm across (1/4-1/2in). In time the swings have become bigger, up to 5cm (2in). If you let them get much bigger than that, people will complain that they can see your arm move and I'd like to devote a paragraph to that.

Does/should your arm move?

People protest that a pendulum is a suspect method of communication because they can see the person's arm moving. Yes, your arm or your hand will make tiny muscle movements, but these are unconcious. This is how the light beings are communicating through you and this is why it can take a while for the system to begin working: they are getting used to your body and how to work it. Isn't it just the same with psychic visions or any other means the spirit world uses to get our attention or communicate ideas to us? They are working with your body; for example with your brain, to make it seem like you "saw" something, when your eyes did not see it.

Muscle Testing

Again, with muscle testing, it is a matter of Spirit learning to use your body to communicate with you. Muscle testing is used in kinesiology. Normally, with muscle testing a "weak" response means no, and a "strong" response means yes. Here is one way I know of to use muscle testing.

Form an "O" with your thumb and little finger of your left hand. Put the thumb and forefinger of your right hand together and put them into this "O". Now, try to open up the O on your left hand by prising it open with the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. With a weak repsonse (no) the O easily opens up, and with a strong response (yes), it remains closed. So we are looking at the strength of the response in the left hand. If you find this hard to follow, I will post some piccies later. If you google it you will also find a wealth of information. No doubt there are other ways of doing it and you can just stick to the system you are comfortable with.

Ouija Board

The ouija board has a "bad rap". People are scared of it and for good reason. There have been many instances documented of people getting nasty messages that are not of love, due to lower entities taking hold of this medium and pretending to give messages from Spirit. In theory, there is no reason why it could not be used effectively, provided one asks for Spirit to first remove all negative energies and lower entities. I have no experience with it so I will not write any further on it. Anyone welcome to message me if they have something meaningful to share on this.

Cards

These are becoming increasingly popular. They consist of a pack of cards with prewritten messages of love. The user pick one or more cards and reads , then interprets the message. Generally extra information "comes through" a this point that will be relevant for your client. A useful aid for budding clairvoyance skills but not much good for someone without any.

Special past life cards also exist that can help point the way to certain types of common past lives.




Finding the details of a simple past life

OVERVIEW

First you can ask for, or already have the intention: "Human only" past lives. Other types are trickier and will be dealt with later.

When you start asking your questions, always go from the GENERAL to the PARTICULAR, otherwise you can waste a lot of time. The only exception to this is if you get a strong vision or intuition for a particular detail.

THE MAIN FACTS

Date, place, sex, married, children, wealth or status, occupation/lifestyle, cause of death, soul fragment, anyone else in this lifetime.

WHAT TO ASK

The above facts can be tackled in any order. This is usually the order I do them (approximately)

1. Sex and family: male? female? married? did she have children? how many? Example: more than 5? (yes) more than 10? (no) more than 7? (no) was it 6? (no) was it 7? (yes) (this illustrates the "narrowing down" procedure.) Usually (if married) I also ask before going much further, "was this a happy marriage", or " was it a happy, loving realtionship?" Often this can lead you straight into abusive relationships, all too common. You need to get some details: who was abusive towards whom, what sort of abuse: physical, verbal, psychological, financial, etc.

2. Date: Was it before Christ? After Christ? (If you get "no" to both these it could mean it was about the same time as Christ's lifetime. Example: Was it more than 1000 years before Christ? (yes) More than 5000? (no) Was it more than 2000 years BC? (yes) more than 3000? (no) Was it between 2000 and 3000BC? (yes) Was it between 2000 and 2500 BC? (yes)(illustrating the narrowing down procedure) Generally the further back in time you go, the more approximate you can be with the dates Pre 5000 +/- 1000 years Pre 20,000 years, just go nearest 10,000 years. Anything pre 15,000 is usually Atlantis, to about 100,000yrs ago. If you get a later lifetime, say in the 1800's or even 1900's it might be an idea to get the date a bit more accurately. But remember to specify if you are asking about their date of birth or date of death.

Really, the only reason you even need dates at all is so that you can more easily tie in the lifestyle details in with what you know about the history of the place where they lived. You could look a bit silly if you write "It was 500BC and you were a devout Muslim." You need to know that Islam was founded by Mohammed around 700 something AD. If you know very little about history, there is a wealth of information on history websites. It is amazing how much you learn as you go along. Alternatively, you may prefer to keep it vague and the healing will happen anyway.

3. Place: Start with Northern hemisphere/Southern hemisphere? Then move on to: Continent: North America? Europe? Middle East? North Africa? Asia? (say the answer was Europe, then I usually go Northern Europe? Southern? and then: Eastern or Western? Once you have the quarter, you can guess the country. (You may need a map.) Similarly you can do the same with other continents. The continents in the Southern Hemisphere are: South America, Australia, Pacific Islands (as a group) Southern Africa. Northern hemisphere past lives are far more common. Then, to get a better idea of the living circumstances, you may ask: jungle clearing, village, town, city? Rural, nomadic? etc.

4. Wealth/status, occupation. I usually ask: poor, middle class, rich? Then you might ask the following depending on the answer: Rich or high status: King, Pharoah, Leader, chief, lord, landlord, merchant, landowner, high priest, medicine man, healer, industrialist, knight, military officer, etc. Middle class: Trader, merchant, book keeper, butler, farmer, hunter, fur trader, soldier, ships captain, tradesman (carpenter, stonemason, roof tiler, blacksmith, seamstress), cook, baker, artisan, (silver, gold, wood, stone, paint, etc) You get the idea? If you can't get the exact trade it does not matter: even just "did he work with his hands?" is ok. Poor: tenant farmer, beggar, hunter, rag man, scullery maid, servant, slave, farm hand, soldier, sailor, fisherman.

5. Soul fragment? Ask this next. If no, then cause of death becomes less important, if yes, cause of death is important. The usual cause is a traumatic death, but if it was not, you need to look for another reason for the soul fragment. I will explain further about soul fragments later.

6. Anyone from this life in their life today? Usually the only important ones are: the person who killed them or they killed, their wife/husband, their children, perhaps their parents or siblings. Maybe someone who cheated them, cursed them, injured, abused or defeated them, or whatever. Typically they will come back as family members, but can also be in-laws, work colleagues, friends, lovers, stalkers, etc.

Normally you don't need anywhere near all of this stuff, but this is kind of a "wide ranging guide", yet at the same time, it certainly does not cover everything.

THE ESSENCE OR CRUX OF THIS LIFETIME

The above questions give you a lot of information about your subject's lifetime and lifestyle. By now you may also have a good idea of why this lifetime has been brought up for healing. If this is not yet clear, it is necessary to dig deeper to find it. Without knowing why this lifetime was brought up for healing, it will be very hard to do any healing. Just tell your guide that you would now like to know the reason it has been brought up for healing and start guessing. Again go from the general to the particular. Here are some general categories to get you started:

Once you have a general idea, you can narrow it down with further questions. At any point, when you think you have all the information, but you are not sure, you can just ask, "Do we know enough now about this lifetime now for healing to be effective?" If yes, then you can stop digging!




Cutting the cords and healing the past life

This is what it is all about really. The reason past lives are brought up at all is to heal any issues or Karma set up during that experience.

This part may be daunting but it need not be. Your guide(s) have brought you this far, they will do the rest for you as well. Just remember it is not you "doing" anything, all you are doing is asking Spirit to cut the cords, anything on top of that is nice icing on the cake to let your "client" know that it is all under control and give them the feeling that you and Spirit know what they are feeling and going through.

Simply address the aspect of Spirit that you normally work with eg "Archangel Michael, please cut all cords now for (name), with this lifetime, with all......."

Here you just fill in all the issues and emotions you can think of that have relevance to the lifetime you have just dug up. For example, there could be guilt about some crime, there could be pain and trauma about a nasty death, there could be yearning and sadness about a lost love, maybe fear and terror about some traumatic situation like a massacre or battle. Maybe it is simply "cutting for regaining knowledge." It could be "cutting for all spells and curses." Put in all the relevant stuff that comes to mind, but no need to go overboard.

There will be more on cutting in a later section on soul fragments.

Chanting

Ok, so you have asked for all the cords you can think of to be cut; at this point many people do some chanting. This might sound silly but I think it is useful. Firstly, it lets your client know that, hey, something interesting is really going down here. And secondly, it focusses your "intention". It really gets you concentrating on getting those cords cut and nothing else. The third reason is that it helps you to gauge how "thick" the cords were. How? Well, with practice, you find that your chant comes to a stop when the cords are cut. Some people can feel it in their larynx, others just get a sudden urge to stop, or to clear their throat. I find, with me, that a sudden, uncontrollable yawn is what stops me.

Just make up any chant that suits you. For example "In the name of Love" or "In the name of the universe" or what ever sounds good to you.

Let me know if you think of any good ones.

So if your chant stops really quickly, you know the cords to that particular issue were small. You may want to keep digging around for something else.

Healing Meter

You may find that after you have done lots of cord cutting (for your client, or for yourself) that you keep getting nothing but "thin" cords. This does not mean you are losing your touch, it could mean that their healing meter is used up. A person can only let go of so many cords in any one day; after that they need to rest.

Being able to tell when cords are cut, being able to gauge how thick cords are and when someone's healing meter is used up, are skills that can take quite a little while to learn. Just like learning to use a pendulum or muscle testing, it takes some practice. Until you have had a bit of practice, just be prepared for some fumbling around while you learn. Make it fun.




Returning Soul Fragments

If Spirit tells you that your subject has left a soul fragment with the past life you have been working on, then it can be returned once all the cords are cut.

A soul fragment can be thought of as a "ghost", stuck on the earth plane. Part of you can be stuck on the earth/time plane for some reason, while the main part of you goes on to reincarnate into another life. The ghosts that people encounter here on earth are basically very large soul fragments. The part of your soul splitting of can be any size from 0 - 100%.

There seems to be a limited number of reasons why soul fragments are left. The reasons generally seem to fall into the following categories:

Once you know the reason why the soul fragment was stuck there, just ask spirit to cut any remaining cords keeping it there and let it return. Some people have reported feeling a bit of a shock or jolt when this occurs. Some report a vision of a stranger walking towards them and suddenly "merging" with them. Any shock or disorientation can often be alleviated by visualising white light or love sent to all or each of their chakras in turn.




Alien or Extra-Terrestrial Past Lives

These types of past lives can be very interesting. The evolution of life in the universe was likely very complex and there has probably been lots of cross-seeding and colonisation ocurring. It is unlikely that anyone will really ever know the exact details of these processes. Some people have channelled quite detailed information about certain aspects. I have not made a study of this information to see if the different channels can actually be reconciled with each other, but I suspect that one might find some contradictions here and there.

These warnings notwithstanding, spirit will give you "ET" lifetimes occasionallly for your client, and they can be quite tricky to pin down. Firstly the lifestyles on other planets typically bear no resemblance to what we know here. Secondly, your guides in the angelic realm find it hard to get to grips with our concept of time (a 3D concept). With Earthly lives, they can use major events, such as the birth of Christ, to help date a lifetime. That's why I always use the question BC or AD? But trying to date ET lifetimes is virtually a lost cause, unless you want to try somethig like, "well it was about 500 Sirius years after the fall of the Yallovian Empire" All pretty meaningless and totally unnecessary information. No one needs it and you would waste enormous amounts of your time trying to pin down the timing. Just ignore it.

I will just list a few guidelines here that may help you and perhaps this section can be expanded if anyone can feed me any information that they have picked up.

Where was it?

Certain constellations or star systems seem to crop up fairly frequently. The ones I have encountered are: Sirius, Pleiades, Lyra, Orion.......

Remember these names refer to either a constellation ( a whole group of stars) or to a particular star. Living beings don't live on stars (as far as we know) so these general origins refer to planets associated with that star, or a particular star in that constellation. Some stars may have more than one inhabited planet, others may have none.

In any case, you can be sure that the lifestyles and physical conditions on most planets are vastly different to our own. Sometimes out of curiosity, I have spent some time asking lots of detailed questions. I have found out that many things we take for granted are not always present on another planet.

For example, on some plantets, the beings don't breathe, they don't have lungs. Why do we have them? Because we need oxygen and lungs seem to the best way to get it. Why do we need oxygen? We use it to release the chemical energy in our food (combustion or respiration). Well this is not the only way to get energy, it can be chemically derived in plenty of other ways, or it can be obtained from the environment, eg sunlight. Now, if you don't breathe, you are less likely to use speech, right, because speech requires air. So these people, communicate with telepathy.

Another case in point: we take it for granted that reproduction requires two sexes. Well there is asexual reproduction, requiring only one sex, even here on Earth, but it is not evoltionarily effective because of the lack of gene mixing. Well on other planets there are different options, eg, three sexes, or four. Of course this is not evolutionarily effective either because although it is fantastic for efficient gene mixing, it becomes less likely that three beings of the correct sex can 'find' each other at the right time. So these systems have other failsafe mechanisms built in.

Customs and norms, as is to be expected, would also be vastly different from what we are used to.

What to expect

What sort of life experiences can you expect during an ET past life reading? I can't definitively answer this one yet as I have not done very many.

There can be quite normal types of lives that could just as easily have been lived here on Earth, but weren't. There can also be strange ones that tie in with other dimensions. Here are some of the concepts I have come across, or heard about.

Elemental Past Lives

These types of past lives are more common perhaps than the extraterrestrial past lives.

Elementals, for those who have never heard of them, are beings that live here on earth, but in some way are not exactly in the same "dimension" or plane as we are. Normally we cannot see them but some people in certain circumstances claim they have seen them or that they can be seen. These are the Elves, Faeries, Trolls, Gnomes, etc of mythology. Elementals all have in common that they are associated very closely with nature and in some cases may act as guardians or protectors or nurturers of certain aspects of nature. For example there seem to be tree spirits who live in, with or on trees and protect them.

It would seem that elementals live fairly simple lives compared with what we are used to. They live close to nature and do not pursue technology the way we do. This is not to say they they are always "goody-goodies" as they are subject to the same foibles as humans, eg, hatred, anger and jealousy.

What sort of past life issues do we typically find with elemental past lives? Elementals do get married and have children just like humans do, so the typical relationship issues can be brought up. More commonly, however, the issues that come up are to do with their close association with the particular aspect of nature that they have their affinity for. Often there will be some sort of tragedy that befalls their beloved trees for example, or it may be mountains or fish or animals. This tragedy can then affect them badly as any trauma can. So it is just a matter of cutting cords for loss, shock, fear, or trauma.

There are also lives where there has been intereaction between humans and elementals. In certain eras or places, the plane on which the elementals live is, or was more accessible to humans. In some cases, when humans have found this out, they may have taken advantage of this access and perhaps abused the elementals for reasons we can only guess at. As protectors of nature, they can become quite upset about anything carried out by humans that harms nature in any way, eg, pollution, slaughter of animals, deforestation or fire, major earthworks, etc.
