april 10th Memories of Past Lifes

April 10—Memory
memories of past lifes


Occult believers
Believe that love
And hate are mirror images
Of the same phenomenon

In both cases
You knew the person
In a prior life

And were fated
To meet again
To resolve
unresolved issues

I often thought
This to be the case

That my wife
And I met
In a previous life

And found each other
In this life

We both know this
But have only
a vague idea
Of our past lives

The idea that love and hate at first sight are connected to past lives is a fascinating concept often explored in occult and spiritual writings. The belief suggests that intense emotions upon meeting someone for the first time—whether positive or negative—stem from unresolved issues or deep connections from a prior life. These encounters are thought to be karmic, meaning they are opportunities to resolve unfinished business or learn important lessons.
Some writers and thinkers propose that these strong reactions are due to residual memories or energy imprints from past interactions. For example, meeting someone you instantly dislike might indicate a conflict or betrayal in a previous life, while love at first sight could signify a reunion with a soulmate or a cherished companion from the past.

Here are a few articles that delve into this topic:

Jake Cosmos Aller's poem Love and Hate Mirror Images discusses the idea that love and hate at first sight are mirror phenomena tied to past lives. You can find it at https://www.fanstory.com/displaystory.jsp?id=1148190.

Love and hate
At first sight
Are mirror images
Of each other
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have encountered love
At first sight
Four times in my life
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And hate at first sight
A few times as well.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I met my wife
I understood
that we had met before
and were fated to meet
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
again, again and again
until the end of time
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Such powerful emotional reactions
At meeting someone for the first time
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is due to residual memories
Of past life encounters
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In both cases
You had a powerful relationship
With them in a prior life
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And had unresolved issues
And were fated to meet again
And work out your karmic fate

Another piece by Jake

Hate
At first sight
Often turns to
Love
