Thanks for that! Ok now I get it. That is pretty interesting. I've also wondered if we're the same soul..but it seems so strange! I grew up without a religion and was always thinking of different possibilities but even with that background it is very hard for me to get my head around.

DebraJane, thanks for introducing that concept here, definitely something for me to think about.

Ok this might explain something else that's been happening to me. The past few years, when I meditate, I can't visualise the right side of my body. It's like it's greyish and see-through, whereas I can visualise the left side perfectly fine. Also about 10 years ago I asked some people in my dream where 'he' is, and they pointed to me, and it seemed like 1/2 of me was just me, 1/2 of him was just him, then the other halves of us was overlapped.

this just keeps getting weirder and weirder.

It's pretty much saying that your soul is out there on whatever plane or in what ever dimensions souls are rooted in, but instead of it only having a direct thread (tentacle!) to you, it also has a thread or tentacle to someone else, or even multiple people. And the "oversoul" would be the body of the jelly fish, right? It was hard for me to understand when I first heard the reincarnation theory a long time ago because I grew up in a very christian setting, where you have a soul, and your soul only belongs to you! This theory contrasts directly with how I was raise. The concept of people sharing the same soul seemed so odd to me, but after a while it really began to make sense to me. I look at it like this, people speak of meeting their soul mates, someone who makes them feel complete, who feel what they feel and are so in sync with them that they always know what the other is thinking. Maybe those soul "mates" are in fact two people with the same soul. That could explain why they feel like something is missing until they meet, because they are in fact two parts of the same greater soul. I could be way off base, but that's what I thought of when I read the whole Oversoul thing.

DebraJane, thanks for your post about the oversouls thing. I found this site looking for some answers to some things, and your over souls post connected several dots for me! I knew about dream sharing, and I knew about people being able to share souls, but I never thought to connect the two. Just wanted to confirm, your suggesting that someone else, that you have never met could in theory travel to your dreams if you share the same soul by just following the souls tentacles? and any chance you have any stories supporting it? Or is it just theory right now?
