Default Incarnating as non-humans?

I've wondered a lot about incarnating.
I also wonder a lot about what's out there in terms of the universe and intelligent life, etc.

Assuming there's other intelligent life out there (and how could there not be?), do you think our higher-self energies can incarnate as one of these extra-terrestrial beings?

But what of non-human terrestrial beings? Can one incarnate as a tree? or a cat? or an ant? Maybe there's something to the Buddhist wheel of incarnation... ?


When I was younger I was pretty much an atheist, thinking logically - I believed that we were cells and atoms and molecules and that the evolution of life was a complete accident. I never believed in 'God' because the concept just doesn't seem to make sense.

Afterwards, I moved from Atheism to Agnosticism - I conceded to the fact that I could be wrong, maybe there was more to life that atoms and cells - maybe souls did exist. But because I could not 'know' for sure, faith was a difficult topic for me.

Reading Erin's blog and articles has pushed me more into the direction of becoming a believer. Not in 'God' per se - at least what many Religions seem to refer as the idea of God - for if we are all One then we are all God... but if the Big Bang theory of the Universe is true... then we literally did all come from the same place. Everything existed as One in that moment.

I am so so very curious what the Guides and Spirits would have to say about the origin of Life, the Universe, and... Everything.

Default Extra terrestrials

Hi Rachelle,

The definition of extra terrestrial as I understand it is a soul that is not native to Earth and that experienced its first incarnation in a place other than Earth.

There are many souls incarnated here on Earth who originated elsewhere, some aligned with negative energies, some with positive.

You could google 'Sirian', 'Arcturian', 'Pleiadian' if you wanted to find out more about some of the extra-terrestrial soul groups present on Earth.

Anna

Rachelle,

You should look into Dalores Cannon's work. She discusses the very exact things you are curious about. Most of the information in her books is salvaged from the subconscious minds of individuals in deep states of hypnosis, accessing buried memories of the hereafter. You might find it interesting.

The universe, or should i say multi-verse, contains an infinitely diverse amount of intelligent life. And there are more than just "physical incarnations". Chances are you have incarnated in non-human bodies before.

In a sense, the big bang event did happen. But its not over with, it is/has/will be happening forever. Time is a big bump in the road to understanding the nature of reality. You are still ONE, and you are still simulating the illusion of separation as well.

And as far as transmigration is concerned... Consciousness passes through all forms of reality. But once it has evolved out of a certain from associated with a certain "threshold" of awareness, it does not again return to the "lower" or less complex form of consciousness, except in rare instances.

According to Hinduism, a soul incarnates in several forms, in several realms - not just as an Earth being. A soul could incarnate as a tree, a bug, a deer, a rat, a rabbit, a cat, a human and so on.

I personally do believe in reincarnation. And my personal belief about whether a soul can incarnate as a non-human before/after a human incarnation is as follows: Yes, a soul can incarnate in many forms. I do not believe that the human form is so special that a soul incarnating as a human could not take other incarnations (in past or future lives) as other beings.
