After Death Arrives: The Time Between Lives, and What Souls Experience

After Death

As a soul comes near the end of an earthly life it develops a strong higher consciousness, you would call it a higher-conscious level, of awareness regarding the life just experienced. As that end comes nearer and nearer, the memories of experiences and lessons begin to catalog in the soul mind for deep consideration.

Confusion and Fear About What To Expect

There is a short time after the death cycle where the personality aspect and resulting mind records take the most active role in what it experiences. As Rampa wrote, it is often what a person expects to experience right after death that guides the situation which the personality part of the soul first experiences. If it is the nothingness concept, that is what occurs until one becomes restless and looks for something more. Heavenly fields or damnation expectations bring exactly that experience until the realization of false expectations seeps through and it is no longer a necessary experience. As the preconceived notion of the immediately past life shell dissolves, a new awareness takes its place.

Heaen or Hell

Awareness Begins

The real experience begins when the conscious awareness of another dimension, with another set of opportunities and expectations is available. At that point, the soul mind begins to remember other lifetimes and other lessons. It then begins to relate other lives to the immediately past lifetime.

Since there is no real time nor space beyond our material world in the full spirit realms, the manifestation of appearance and experience can vary for each being. Since filters of expectation from past experiences are what shape the early experiences following the transition from earthly to ethereal life, that is the manner in which the soul slowly returns to the true source.

If needed, a type of vacation of the soul may be taken for relief from stressors and joyful times. The amount of time spent in this peaceful limbo is unique to each individual. It is not dictated by an outside source. We do interact with our higher awareness and guides, but the decisions and actions are purely free will. For without that free will there is no commitment and very little opportunity for learning or clear self-evaluation.

Review and Evaluate

Once the soul is rested and ready, it takes upon itself to fully review and evaluate the immediate past lifetime in minute detail. As that review is taking place, the original plan for the lifetime appears as a reference for evaluation points. What was the main goal of the lifetime? What were the things to learn “how” to do? What were the items to learn “how not” to do? What values were being tested for ultimate truths? What conclusions were reached? What “ah ha!” moments occurred? What were the “oh no!” moments? How far did the personality and body mind stray from prior experiences in other lifetimes?

Then these conclusions are compared to other lifetimes through connected lessons, relationships, attitudes, etc. How do the puzzle pieces fit together?

What has been brought to completion as soul lessons and conclusions? What items are still undecided or unfinished? How do the overall patterns, decisions and actions overlay to affect the ultimate soul growth?

This is an intensive process with great consideration. Most of the work is done by the soul mind. Yet we as our own guides take a very active part in questioning and pointing out possibilities, as well as repercussions on the soul itself, and other beings. Since life is in large part about experiencing and learning, the evaluation of that learning is to be taken very seriously and requires careful consideration.

Planning and Preparation

As we develop conclusions about strengths, challenges, areas not yet addressed, and new possibilities, a blueprint of sorts begins to emerge of what could be next in this grand experience.

So, lists of possibilities are created, calling upon all of the past lifetimes, and interactions with other beings. Lists of times, places, situations, events, connections with other souls, and goals. Ways to make a pattern for a new lifetime are slowly developed.

Then it is time to begin looking for best connections with other souls, timelines, locations, genetic predispositions, character, and all aspects involved in developing a human life. (Or another type of life experience in other realms, planets, etc.). Many possibilities are considered.

You can imagine just how complex that planning phase is and how dependent it is upon a solid evaluation of the past lifetimes to develop a careful plan.

Eventually other beings are contacted and contracts for shared lessons and opportunities in the new lifetime are discussed. Parts of this discussion are biology, cultural situations, and personality issues. All of the things that you know of as astrology, numerology, physiology, genetics, and much more are considered.

Contracts, or covenants are developed with living and future living souls that consider the potential value for each participant. The probabilities for the first 18 to 20 years are planned and agreements are made. It will not work if all parties are not in agreement at the soul level. How much conflict will there be? How many opportunities for growth will be available? Will it be a lifetime of joy and peace, or one of many challenges? It is all decided and mapped out. It still includes the knowledge that free will may change any aspect at any time for any of the participants. Each being is expected to make determinations of actions and learning options throughout the lifetime.

Eventually, with much guidance and questioning, a grand plan is developed. A body is planned. Familial, cultural, and other aspects are carefully planned.

Then the new earthly soul aspect has the opportunity to walk with the new parents and family for a period of about two earth years to see how well the plan could work. This is on a higher consciousness level, not physical at this point. A lifetime is a very serious undertaking and the grace period for evaluation of the overall plan and its individual components are tested and evaluated.

The Miracle of Life Begins

Divine Expression

After all this, when the timing is right, name, birth time and location are selected, and the earth bodies are developed. The magic begins. Our guides are always on hand to help all beings involved in the process.

The soul does not stay in the new body all the time in the womb. It enters and exits on a regular basis, giving it time to adjust to the new situation and to observe from a detached position how the life formation is going.

Finally, the body is formed and born. The soul has the choice of whether to be in the body for the actual delivery or observe nearby. It is considered best to be actively in the body, but not required.

Guides are there for each being and are very active in supporting the process.

The newborn child still enters and exits the body at different times until it is ready to be stationary in the new person. The greatest time for an exit from a physical lifetime is up until the cranial ridges, or “soft spot,” closes.

There are still options for everyone. The newly born child has the option of staying alive in that body or leaving it within the first two years. The longer the soul stays in the body, the greater the reason that soul would need to have to leave it. But the choice is still there. This can be the cause for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Or, perhaps the original agreement is only for a short time to begin with, and part of the original plan. The beauty is that the soul does have a time of opportunity for reconsideration.

As the soul is in the process of evaluating and planning, it is not necessary to be fully engrossed in the process at all times. The soul entity has the choice of how intense the process will be and how much free time or renewal time to take before returning to life. In fact, the soul is not required to return to life at all. It is choice. For only by choice can true growth continue.

Life Between Lives & Preparing A New Life

And that is a brief description of life between lives and the beginning of a new life. Nothing about the process is random. It is carefully and purposefully planned and executed to provided healing and growth to the highest good of all concerned on all levels of being.

  1. Thanks for some other great post. Where else could anybody get that kind of info in such an ideal way of writing? I have a presentation subsequent week, and I am at the look for such info. Athene Ade Aubine

    1. I understand and apologize. I am having server compatibility issues big time that I have been trying to fix for some time now. I'm so sorry if it comes out looking bad. When I work on the site I have multiple browsers open to check the outcome. It will look good for a while, then something happens at the server end and it messes up. Now I cannot even update pages. I may have to move everything entirely if they can't help me fix the 500 server errors.
