    What is an Old Soul?

    An old soul is a person who feels older than their age reflects. Old souls tend to have an innate tendency to be more thoughtful, reflective, and spiritually-inclined, seeking to see beyond the surface of society and reality.

    Old Souls and Reincarnation

    Some believe that being an old soul is the product of having reincarnated many times. Having paid off their karma, old souls are gifted with keen insight and the uncanny ability to see into the heart and soul of others. But this is just one of many theories. Others believe that old souls are simply born with a certain unique personality type – and still, others believe that being an old soul is the result of having suffered deeply and learned a lot in this lifetime.

    What is the Purpose of Old Souls?

    Almost all old souls go through something known as the spiritual awakening process: an experience where they become more connected with their souls and true life purpose. The meaning of life is different for every old soul, but most feel drawn towards metaphysical, philosophical, healing, and spiritual fields of work. The purpose of old souls, as opposed to their personal meaning in life, is the same fundamental purpose of all life: to grow and evolve, but in this case on a spiritual level.

      Dear Luna & Sol,
      greetings from my heart! I live in Germany. I am looking for likeminds – people who have already managed the fragile balance of psychology and spirituality. Can you help me find some sort of community somehow?
      I’d be very grateful if you could give me a hint.
      Wholeheartedly,
      Axel

      I scored 95. I’m a poet, mystic, seeker, teacher (my profession), at home with others but also with solitude. What caught my eye was the idea of being stuck in the 21st century. Being empathetic to all the anger, hard-heartedness and vitriol in the world these days is difficult. All that’s in the air and you feel it. Much of the world wanders in a spiritual abyss, while at the same time many seek understanding, truth and enlightenment. You feel the latter, too, trusting the light will lead us out of darkness. Being an old soul isn’t easy. Thanks for the wonderful website and all the light you shed!

      Have gone through several episodes of existential crisis. The latest one is causing me to look back at my life. My sister has always been the one to bend the truth. When caught in my sister’s lie regarding cutting summer school in forth grade, I chose to tell the truth. I’ve favored solitude opposed to mindless activities… I do find pleasure in some fun mindless activities though :). Needless to say I find activities to occupy my time. These used to be collecting “stuff”. Got a tarot card reading that I was an old soul. There are many rabbit holes that lead to the same question that I’ve had for quite some time… my purpose. Others have recognized a quality that I was never aware of… someone asked my friend whether he knew whether I was a light worker or a healer based off of a photograph with me and my buddy’s dog. It definitely is a solitary life one leads being an old soul. I crave interaction with older people. It bothers me that time is taking these people out of our realm. It’s amazing so much content has been out for our consumption… content that your site provides is invaluable. It resonates in more ways than one. Thank you for your work and your wife’s work.

      Scored 100. Recently found out I am a “9” in the numerology life path & came here to learn more about what an “old soul” is and amazed how much of what I read here resonates with me. Thank you so much for the insight!

      People have never been Reincarnated. Only Satan the father of all lies. We are created in the image of God. We are 1 soul and never in another body. I have a Doctorate in Theology. I have more college degrees than anyone I have every met.

      Where do you get this insightful information.
      I have studied and read just about everything on Spiritual Awareness but your
      words are extremely uplifting.
      I have been awakenened(the sleeper has awoke).
      I feel as if I have awakened from a deep sleep.
      It took many years of meditation,insomnia(no sleep for usually 7 days at a time,lack of food,periods of intense emotional pain,trying to clear my chakras(have had much trauma and loss,i.e. death of 3 best friends,family has been distant,daughter is distant due to the fact I don’t follow Christianity,have never seen my grandson except a few times,and I am always alone,friends only seem to use me so I have none,except God and Spiritual visions but they take lack of sleep ,no food and a lot of time to reach this awareness.Never seen any masters or spirit guides but my dreams can be as if a movie plays in my mind while sleeping but that is usually only a couple of hours a night.I do no drugs,alcohol(but I use to).I take BP medication and use to bicycle a lot.I write poetry and it is dark and deep.It is on allpoetry.com under eyesolo.People don’t unferstand me and can’t keep a job at thepresent time even though I worked as a paramedic for 15 years and at the railroad for 15 years.I am 57 and have plenty of energyto work but lately my bosses have found a way to get rid of me for one reason or amother.I have been labeled just about every name you can think of but my new found awareness has given me a new strength.I enter the martix at will and ask for help to others in need and of course insight to my inner being.I am healthy but could eat better and do more yoga.I can know go into a meditative trance within minutes but sometimes when the planets are against me I feel horrible.But it is like a storm and it does pass but I can do nothing when the spiritual pain of growth takes hold of me.Your writting has been a blesing and plan on orderimg some of your writting.Don’t know which one to start with,maybe you could direct me in the first one.Some DOCTORS think I bi[polar but I believe it is wirking out mynegative karma and increasing my Spiritual Oneness..I will tell you this,as I have never told anyone but when I was 18 I felt a force inter my hear chakra and it was if an invisile hand entered my body and took a piece of my essence.My life took a turn for the worse and this started my SPIRITUAL iOURNEY,Finally it has been replaced and I don;t know how or why this happened.Try telling this to shrink and they just don;t understand.Kept me doped up on SSRI meds for years until Ithrough them away and asked God to heal me or kill me.But then the awakening occured.A lot of people think I’m extremly different and stay away except for my friend who died.They did’nt judge me and loved me as I loved them.But that was years ago and I spend most of my time alone.There is more but I believe you understans,Thanks for your site,your a special SOUL along with your partner.I quess I need whatto do next but in the meantime I’ll continue my walk alone looking for the wolf inside of me.Thanks for your insight and website.I have learned that I am not alone but evolving to howl at the moon on a crisp winters night looking for answers that I can’t find by myself. Charles Graves,eyesolo@outlook.com PEACE to you and your partner.

      Thank you for this. When I was young I worked at a hospital. I once met an elderly nurse from India. She looked into my eyes and said “Oh dear, what an old soul you are”. It was a very awkward moment, I never met her before, I was very young and insecure and didn’t know what to say. So we pretended that it didn’t happen – and I never met her again, but her words have remained with me. I always known this is so, but never known what to do about it. To figure this out, I need to put my own needs first – and now, when I’m 55 years, it’s time! My whole life I’ve helped others, listned, talked, gently pushed them in the right direction… But the last few years I have put up walls, I’m tired and feel spent. And to prevent myself from trying to help everyone I had to close the doors to my feelings. What I didn’t know was that I lost myself too… Now, I feel like I’m in a corner and I have to stay here and try to find my way back to myself – my soul – and finally start my spiritual journey. I didn’t know how to begin, and stumbled over this page – and everything rings true. I’m feeling hopeful and have found the piece I have to start with. Thank you for that, and for the insight that I’m not alone <3 Sorry if spelling and words don't fit – english isn't my language :-)

      I have been seeing 11:11 very consistent since about November. At first I just thought “oh wow, make a wish”. This happened several times that week. By the second week of seeing the number, I started thinking there is something going on…… someone is trying to get my attention. Now this had been preceded by one of the worst years of mine and my fiance’s life. I was so devastated by the events of that year and the way we were treated that I was convinced everyone would be better off without me. My fiance tried to be strong, but over time even he weakened watching me fall further and further down. We had almost no one. And then I started to see 11:11, approximately in November. It’s been 5 months and I am still seeing it. It was almost on a daily basis at one point. I started to read about it and learned it was a powerful number and had a lot to do with manifestation. I started to believe this meant something good. I assumed at some point it would stop. But it hasn’t. I became convinced, and I still am, that the universe was talking to me. Telling me things were not only going to be ok, but we were headed for a major life change, good change. Like “all of our dreams are going to come true” kind of change. The level of energy and power in the thoughts I was giving to all the bad stuff that happened to us, then transferred to this belief in the power of 11:11. Being a time of great spiritual growth, intuition, and manifestation. And while I still had times of sadness, tearful, and feeling’s of loss (and even still do) it wasn’t constant. It wasn’t obsessive. It was appropriate. And I continued to focus all the energy I could into what good things lay ahead for us. See, we are also twin flames. From the first day we met we felt we were soulmates and had been together before in past lives. We recently learned about the twin flame relationship and we are on this journey together. And while we “fell from grace” together, we will rise from the ashes together. I found your website tonight as I was browsing and watching the movie the secret. I just signed up for the 5 day course on your website and he and I will experience it together. Thank you for the information you have provided and will provide through your course. And for allowing me a platform to tell a short version of our story to you. It helps to let others know some of our experience after losing so many people that we thought were family and friends. Now we talk to strangers that are like minded and don’t tear us down. Life is changing and we are spending this time together during the Covid-19 crisis and quarantine together learning and growing. Peace to you both.

      Always,
      Christy and Patrick

      This is such a neat body of work. Thank you.

      I am positive my young adult daughter is an advanced soul—I knew it before I became pregnant with her. When she enters a situation, everyone stands up more straight and cleans up negative behavior. My dad, a veteran with CPTSD—stopped his heavy drinking and smoking the day she was born. Old, stubborn toxic patterns in our family began to come to the light for healing.

      The biggest amount of pain in my life is relocating 400-miles from my native Bay Area, CA—and where both my children still live. Financial things. I do better in every way when I get to see my daughter and son often.

      I was embarrassed taking the quiz when I answered the middle regarding clothing and tech. I care about wearing natural fabrics, that are like “wearing the world as a loose garment.” A lot! When I’m physically comfortable with the bonus of feeling beautifully drapey-flowy—I’m way more effective in the world and can focus on loving others (my Westie-Poodle too!) and creating art. I have more to give! And beauty—in the largest sense of the word—makes the world go around. It inspires excellence.

      WRT tech, when I can afford it, I upgrade to the newest iPhone. Mainly because the camera takes great reference photos and I love haptic-feedback!

      So I scored a bit less!

      I think it’s a great thing you’ve got going here to help guide and comfort those who are lost and confused. It’s my opinion that so many don’t realize why they feel the way they do, and it can be frustrating without understanding. I was lucky enough to find an article similar to this one when I was going through my spiritual awakening and if not for that blessing, I’d still be a complete mess lol! Yes, I too am an old soul. I’m also a healer, lightworker, empath, teacher, Pisces, mom, and artist. I find it mind blowing that when asked, 9 out of 10 people usually can’t tell you confidently who they are and what their purpose is. So people like you are a blessing to all, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ✨

      Thank you for making me realize my true place in this world. I have been slowly trying to figure out my place and purpose in our society in this world. You can say your words made a major impact in my way of thinking and accepting the way people think of me and my perception of our world. I don’t think I have ever felt this disattached from everyone ever in my life but I have also never been this in love with the person I’m with, so it balances out. Understanding everything is a personal goal that I know I can never realize but just reading a few things from your website and my mind and emotions have been touched and moved into a phase for the beginning of the rest of my life….wow! Thank you. John Cyprian.
