I had several past lives known through dreams and interests.
The first one i came into notice was i was into ancient Egyptian times and very interested about King Tutankhamun and Nefertiti, during this interest and researching more about what captivated me from it. No other dynasty caught me more than the "Aten" known as the Sun God lifetime of Egypt, i liked the Karnak temple and was drawn more to the God Horus than the Aten.
Which told me more about my standing point in that lifetime, and a few dreams i had years ago was one with me outside of the Karnak temple still entact and beautiful, i was standing outside looking at it while wind was blowing and it was in a desert and it felt awesomely warm there, i seemed happy. Other dream was about me and i saw Nefertiti come to me and ask (obvious in english so i can understand)"Where is your sister?" , so i replied "Nefer-nefer-aten?" Trust me this was in no book today and i don't know where and how i got that. After that i so wanted to get a tattoo of the eye of horus and hieroglyphics, but i kept hesitating about it until i totally never got it, i did step into a tat shop but managed to leave before anything.

Second, i was also always into dreamcatchers and how fasinated i became with dreams. One time i had a dream that i was among natives in a huge forest and i was standing on ankle deep water like a river that went through this forest, and we all seen was a few men on a small boat gliding on this river, and i was shocked to see people that were not from our tribe or land, it was english people. I wasn't scared, just more excited and curious. This time i am guessing was in Viriginia when the english invaded, i don't know if i was Pocahontas or not but i felt female at the time. Not sure who exactly i was but i know it was in this time.

Third i was into the russian time when it was still USSR, also the Czar story and family interested me after i seen an old Czar movie about the execution of the family by rebels/enemies. Then one day i dreamt about a man i met in Russia and he had his heavy military coat and those Russian military winter hats. He was a very tall man about 6'4" and very clear blue eyes which was the reason why i was captivated by him. I was in a love affair with him and a girlfriend or wife i suppose, i seemed to get mad when i found out and he saw me knowing this and i ran to a door and i seen Russian words on it and it was a stairway and i ran down the stairs crying and in so much pain, i saw him coming after me calling me but i couldn't make out the name. He came to me and said how sorry he was and he hugged me.

Last but not least i am stuck with memories more than those other 3 lives i had, my 4th is more prominent. Bonnie and Clyde.

How did you tell them apart from normal dreams about random shit?

Before i even seen the movie or known about Bonnie and Clyde, i am into and a very old fashion person, i started to be this way since i was 13 ever since i lived in europe for 2 years off and on at the azores island of Portugal, at Terceira Terceira Island - Azores - Portugal - YouTube
I was surprised that i loved how people lived in this small island and most people there are farmers. And this is coming from a city girl i was born and raised at the largest city in Canada now. In this place i was at everyone knew me because of my parents and grandparents were from there before they came to Canada, everyone worked for themselves and helped others when needed, everyone was friendly etc, but you just got to watch what you say or do because gossip goes round and comes back in one day lol. This place taught me a lot in life and how people used to struggle a lot there and i don't know why i can relate to it at that time and somehow loved the 1930s feel of this place in 1998, like i stepped back through time and it is incredible feel.
After that i changed the way i looked at things, i came back to Canada around 16, went back to school and finished, by early 20s i have yet to know about bonnie and clyde. Until i saw the 1967 movie the first time, i saw it as just another love story movie and thinking it never happened in real and it was just another hollywood made up plot. Funny this is, i thought bonnie and clyde in the end would get away again and have a happy ending (just like any other love story), but i was shocked that they didn't and actually cried for them because they seemed happy together, and the way they died baffled me. I told myself, "why are you shooting at them? they love each other." what a darn thing to say eh? lol
After that between 23 to 27yrs old i gone about my life, then around when "Public enemies" movie came out, i got compelled about the movie plot and known nothing about Johnny dillinger, i only was into the year 1930s. I saw it the first day it came out because it was around near my birthday June i think. I don't know why i was so excited to watch it, only because of 1930s and guns and action was involved, i love hardcore action movies also with some love story connected, ironic right?
Then the past few years i started to get into researching about 1930s gangs, and i really didn't know what public enemies really meant by, so i started online researching, then wiki showed me what was part of public enemies and bonnie and clyde was listed as well. I was surprised that bonnie and clyde really was real and only some parts of the movie happened, i did deep research and i now am very annoyed that all i read is about word of mouth and nothing was 100% accurately said, with all the he said and she said.
Around last year i started thinking more about this guy that i so very can't get over from grade 7-8, during those times we had a strong connection, and when i was close to leaving Canada to Portugal i had a spiritual dream of him coming to me and unlocking what we have and i woke up sinking in the bed. Then when it was time to leave i left and never went back to that school again. Ever since that day til now, close spirit connections with/from him kept going in cycles, kept dreaming of him and school years, kept having thoughts that someone was telepathically speaking to me and i always had a feeling of a need to be with "someone" even though i was dating i kept having this until now as if who i am with isn't meant to be.
So since last year i had dreams of him once again, and then in late 2012 i started having dreams of 1930s and how people dressed in my dreams were in that time period. Since then til now, dreams of my dream guy(school guy) and my past lives are almost in a point like it's about to inter-connect because of all the chain reactions between them both.
This guy (don't want to use his real name) who i have a strong connection with in real and in dreams used to be Clyde, and i know he is still having the same attitudes as he was still living, he is secretive and doesn't like facebook and avoids anything that makes him vulnerable to authorities and federals, he still thinks the same but is not aware of what he is doing.
I know it's scary but i am feeling this as of right this minute because he senses that i am talking about him. One thing he is doing opposite now is avoiding me, but i sense it is killing him now and he is disturbed with his life now, i wish i could help him he tried doing so in school, i seen it, and he couldn't try to avoid because we have a magnet between us. In school he avoided me after he knew we both were attracted to each other, and people was starting to talk about us and assuming we were bf/gf.
So after that he started being cold and told me not to speak to him, which that actually hurt me too much. Then months passed and he started to come back again and i pretended to ignore and he kept trying to get my attention and when he did he loved it. Then after a time he avoided again but i know he doesn't want to, and all i seen was him with his small group of buddies obviously talking about me and i know he still does now plus from a psychic i went through recently months ago said he keeps talking about me to a close friend and wants to make a move but is scared. He is still affected, like last time we both saw each other, and i feel it still and it's not going to die off.
The reason why i love the first Twilight movie, because it has so much of that similar feeling of "can't be together, but want to" story.

I liked being there temporarily, it's nice and all but i like my city life now and won't change it.

The only thing i can do now is commune telepathically and through dreams (shared), communing through spirit is all i can do now without invading his real life he has now with a different woman and kids, and i got the same life as he does but we both know we aren't meant to be with them and spiritually know we are meant to be. Yes it is hard, it's his choice and i leave it all up to him to make his move, knowing that he likes to decide things on his own and be his own boss, he doesn't like others telling him what to do.
I know he is spiritually thinking to come back and be like what we used to without any trouble, i receive his thoughts most of the time and in the past month i have recurring images and thoughts and feelings, that he is right out my door and me seeing him and his reaction of that very moment, but i see him as himself in this lifetime, but whenever i invision him as today, his image quickly turns into someone else, and i can't help it, he wearing a suit or not his image changes just like how my dream was showing me in seperate parts. And if i do come across him again, i don't know what will happen to me, but when i invision him seeing me, i really want to faint or feel faint. These images/visions started when my dreams became more recurring about my past life as Bonnie.
What got me more to see if it really connected was when i saw his youth mug shot online when he was 16, it looked so much like him when he was 12-13 in this life and had a faded tan, and was skinny. But now i seen his pics from this life he changed and added more weight, of course he always wants to look tough despite who he is on the inside. Added muscles and all, but when i see that, i tell myself this wasn't you when i last saw you, you aren't this way, your better than that.
Plus he has some tattoos on his arm and on his back in this life now, his past life he did have tattoos on his arms, but both are different tattoos. Bonnie had a tattoo on her upper right thigh of a heart with arrows, i never got a tattoo but i have an odd looking birth mark on my upper right thigh that is a shape of a heart, that sealed the re-incarnated proof.
I always thought that birth mark looked odd until i noticed recently that i have to look at it a certain way to be a heart.

The only thing that i learned about reincarnation is that, we come back again to do right or to meet again where it was left off and re-do the past and do better. Some souls that come back again, usually didn't move on and feel that it needs to reunite and try again, this is what is going on with me and him we both didn't move on and we still have us to deal with before the next lifetime comes. I have other past lives already done and over with, and moved on, but this hasn't and i know he knows that something needs to be done before we move on.
What happened between us in school years needs to be corrected, we actually had to start a relationship on that year but timing wasn't right but fate is poking us now and saying "Look what you did, now you need to do something to stop your souls from crying"

I can only watch this one time, i got crazy dizzy only on 50 seconds of this. Fainting spells and all, i can't imagine me being there or driving by it.

Normal dreams, i usually have more control in them, past life dreams i can't control them and i participate like i am acting in a movie that has laid out the story line already and i can't change what happens or what will happen in the dream.

So all of your non-lucid dreams basically?

How do you know these dreams are past lives?

1st, i mostly have lucid dreams, and i was aware what i was doing in my past life dreams
2nd read my last post to answer your 2nd question.

why would i dream about something ancient history and isn't around anymore and feels very real in dreams?
why do i utter a word/name i do not know in dreams?
why could i read russian words like i knew it subconsciously and don't know crap of russian in real?
Why do i keep talking to a guy with a fedora hat and looks very 1930-ish?
^ all of these dreams just happened without my control in them.

It could be a number of things. I personally have experienced speaking in fluent Japanese while dreaming, despite only knowing it to a very basic level while awake, but I believe it is simply because while we are dreaming, we can make up our own language in a sense. The words don't need to make sense and you don't even need to know the symbols. All you need to know is what you intend to say/read, consciously or subconsciously. I've also had dreams about ancient Egypt, but I feel that these are inspired by the fact that I have done a great deal of research on Egyptian culture and the pyramids in general as they are a civilization that has always fascinated me (I'll leave you a link to a documentary at the end of this post about amazing discoveries to do with the design of the pyramids which suggest that ancient Egyptians were far more advanced than previously thought).

These things are very amazing, but your subconscious is a very powerful thing. A lot of the time you cannot use your subconscious memory, unless you channel it through a dream, so it's very difficult to know what you have memorized subconsciously. The chances are, this was just a creation of your subconscious rather than visions from a previous life. However, I have no right to tell you what to believe or how to interpret your dreams as I cannot possibly know for sure whether or not reincarnation is a real thing or not so you should interpret them however you wish

The Revelation Of The Pyramids
I really recommend this documentary if you have any interest in this sort of thing. Especially if you are keen on maths, science and architecture. It is definitely worth watching the whole thing (this is not one of the documentaries that claim that Egyptians were alien gods, don't worry).

How can my subconscious know russian and reading it and understanding, when i never do such a thing in real?
And about how i got into Egypt was since i saw the ten commandments at 10 yrs old, then watched cleopatra at 18 or 19, only after i started to research and the aten dynasty got me more interested than any other.
And about 1930s and 40s i loved it ever since i first saw dick tracy in my pre-teens, the same time when i was getting connected with the school/dream guy. Then "the mask" which also had a 30s-40s sense to it, just anything 30s even 1930s movies back then i love and idk why. It all leads to past life memories resurfacing slowly.
Thanks for the link though.

I've just explained that your subconscious can do that sort of thing when it comes to languages. If you dreamed of being able to read Russian, then woke up with the ability to read Russian in real life, then maybe it would take a little bit more explaining. By 10 years old, you will have had some education through the school-system about the ancient Egyptians. If I recall correctly, I would have learned that when I was around 7-8 years old in my primary school. But like I said, interpret them how you want. If you start having actual memories with reoccurring places and characters, maybe you ought to spend some time researching any names that you get or any places that your past-self lived in.

Nope, i didn't wake up after that and then having ability to read russian, and no i had no school course about Egypt at 10, and i am only having recurring dreams of my 4th past life more than others.
And yes i am researching now ever since i started recurring dreams of my 4th past life i told about. And it is all coming together, i started researching, after 5-6 dreams kept recurring. The thing is researching about bonnie and clyde is some what hard when people assume lots of stuff happened in this time period, when actually i have to listen closely to my subconscious which is more of the only truth there is. It actually is going to take a bit of time discovering.

Dream/past life progress in DJ before i started research, between November 2012-now.
I will keep you/us up to date.

This is the best so far website i came across about the guns Clyde had, and i dreamt of seeing them, he had a few hand guns and what really stood out in my dream was the 3 major rifles (and i have never seen these guns in real and not die-hard fan for guns either) and these 3 rifles had wood finishing at the end of it, i seen one shot gun out of the 3.
It also shows bonnie's small gun she smuggled to jail and i also had a dream of stealing it in a house, and it was actually a dark colored small caliber gun (again i didn't know what exact look it was before the dream or in real).
Barrow weapons

Another thing i forgot to say is, i had a moment in life when i was 16-17 years old which carried on for a few years and then faded out, was a sudden fear of watching police drive by or actually see police near my heart would race and would look down to the ground and not actually face them, fearing they would come and get me or attack. Idk why but it happened this way.

1. Erm... because people dream about all kinds of random things they hear about in waking life. I don't even understand what your question is getting at. Here's one for you though: why do your past lives all seem to be based around cultures you already know about, or even ones you've taken an active interest in? Have you ever had a dream about an event or a culture which you didn't know about, but later learned that it was real? If not, why not? The vast majority of history is stuff you don't know about; presumably the vast majority of your past lives took place there too.

2. Why not for goodness sakes. Anybody can utter a random noise. Doesn't the fact that the random noise you made isn't actually a real Egyptian word give you any pause for thought?

3. It's a dream. You don't know any Russian. The words in your dream were a mockery of Russian.

4. It's a dream for god's sakes, recurring images appear in many people's dreams. What do you think this proves??

You know what? For a boy like you, you are really boring and straight out negative. Learn more about reincarnation and past lives before you judge.
Have a good life.

Oh wait no, that's what I was doing, and you're just a massive hypocrite.

I've had a hypnotist do some past life regression on me and had the type of visual hathor is talking about. There is a distinction I noticed where in a regular non-lucid dream I feel like I'm acting while in the past life regression I felt like I was watching myself act. Granted, I've also had some very bizarre dreams with no semblance to history where I also felt like I was watching myself act rather than acting.

I regressed to WWII where I was a soviet sniper. I found it very interesting because I've always had an innate ability to tell which WWII films and videogames related to the issue were accurate and which weren't. For example in Enemy of the Gates it is shown how one rifle went to every two people and I knew instinctively that it was actually one for every four or five people. People have also claimed that I had a hint of an accent due to the way I pronounce H which does not come from my ancestral background. Granted my dad's stepfather was Flemish and it may have carried over from that. My grammar and speaking/writing style is also sort of strange, as though I often fall into a different language's grammar style. The most interesting thing was that my regression put me in the Winter War, the soviet invasion of Finland. The visualization was pretty accurate compared to the actual battlefield, but not exact. It seems like it ought to have been more precise than it was, but it was also far more accurate than it should have been considering I knew nothing of town lay-outs or even that the Finnish and Soviets fought each other at the time. I've also carried an innate ability to hold and fire a rifle, and have been a naturally good precision shooter in most games I play or at the shooting range.

The most interesting detail, to me, was that I've always had a sickening reaction to snipers portrayed in movies and games, which I would retrospectively call guilt (but that may just be confirmation bias).

I'm not certain if reincarnation exists, the reason being I have a friend who went through the same regressions and she claimed to be Marie Antoinette as well as one of Jesus' apostles' wives. While I never imagined being anyone so famous it still makes me skeptical. Her innerfaith minister's husband is also supposedly the apostle Peter. How many fucks are the reincarnation of Peter? Did his soul split into a million pieces when he died or something? While my past life regression has enabled me to explain the inexplicable pains I'll occasionally get in my body (In the regression I got riddled with shrapnel from a tank shell) it's not a concept I'm willing to stake my identity on. I find the idea very interesting though. Perhaps the reason I'm so unwilling to believe in anything is because I got carried away by the partisan fervor of the soviets and killed a lot of people in the process. Perhaps.

Interesting!
I too love shooting games, one i played very well in was Godfather 2.
But never handled a gun, if i do one day hold a gun i will get excited, just holding it will make me want to try it too lol. I'm too attracted to guns and movies with guns, like resident evil, scarface, etc especially one with a woman using one makes me jealous lol

I'm pretty sure my natural attraction to violence is stemmed from growing up in American society. What's more striking was that, having never handled a gun before in my life, I instantly understood the proper way to hold a rifle. And more than that, my very first shot hit the can at a 50 yard distance. But I failed the next ten shots after that and considered it beginner's luck. I'm not sure if my beginner's luck was based off past life knowledge or if beginner's luck is a thing. But my inability to replicate the shot raised some questions, not necessarily if reincarnation is real so much as whether or not my present life conditioning, stress, etc interrupted my reincarnated reflexes. Or at least, both possibilities hold chance. I'd prefer, for the sake of making good decisions, to side with a view more skeptical of reincarnation. But I continue to entertain the possibility.

My case made a lot of sense for me, but dude's case who thinks he's the reincarnation of Peter makes a lot of sense to him too. And he's fucking not.

I didn't grow up in American society, but it does show it very well through action movies which i love, growing up watching chuck norris and arnold in the 80s and 90s really effected me because it all was about big guns and muscles and being tough, got me attracted to tough/bad guys. James bond is another i love.

I once had a dream that went roughly like this:

I was a native american girl waiting for her brother to come home from war. When the brother came home my spirit literally flew out of the girl and into the boy. All memory of being "me" and being female was gone. As far as I knew I was a native american boy-warrior.

He came home alone and when he realized none of the other warriors had made it, he left again to continue his mission-this time alone. He did not even hug or console his weeping little sister. His canoe was attacked by a massive crocodile. He felt the fear of death but still manages to shoot study with his rifle. This was a crime according to the old ways. His fear that he angered the river gods was realized when the crocodile was still alive - demonic in his view.

He's chased deep into the woods by the ravaging crocodile. Lost, he stumbles into a mother bear and her cub. At first the mother bear doesn't know what to make of this human. Scared out of his life he shots the mother bear in front of her cub. Again, he broke the laws of old that state killing animals is for hunting only, not out of hatred or fear. His fear that he's angered the spirits is again realized when the cub turns into a demon. So he kills the cub too.

Now he's screwed!

He runs mad across the plains, convinced a demon is chasing him. And damn could he run. He ends up in a white man city. Well damn, the enemy is everywhere now. So the warrior does what he's always done - he takes out his rifle and takes aim.

Screw this! Screw your damn rifle! I finally 'wake up' and fly out of his body. I continue flying high in the sky - the boy never flew he only ran. I look back and figured he's gonna die from the path he's carved out for himself - and I want nothing to do with it.

I can't say that its a past life dream - but its been one of the most meaningful dreams ever. I've never experienced a dream before where I literally forgot all sense of being "me". I was someone else. I reacted, thought and felt emotions as someone else. And its still the only dream in which I "possess" a dream character.

I hate guns! I'm a huge gamer but, even in games I hate guns - won't use em! All my favorite game characters are hunters/warriors with bows n arrows. Bow yielding tauren is my newest love.

edit: oh and I forgot to say, I LOVE LOVE LOVE crocodiles. I can't believe I killed one in a dream! Come on, they're so cute with those stubby arms
