My Edgar Cayce Past Life Personality Reading

Your Sun harmoniously aspects Mars.

         You are easygoing in your temperament, Joseph Matthew Alberts, but once aroused to anger you can rise as high as your quietness had formerly held you back. You also have considerable vitality which is well to be directed toward nature, especially through energetic, outdoor activities.

         Farming and gardening are likely to be especially rewarding, as well as research along agricultural and horticultural lines. Providing food and shelter for individuals that have to do with their health, activity and energy are natural drives, particularly in things pertaining to daily life home conveniences.

         It is likely that you lived in America during its early frontier days, when many of these talents were developed out of necessity. Also related to this prior lifetime is your powerful physical determination, especially in competition: you simply do not allow yourself to be defeated by others.

         Colloquially expressed, you have "get up and go", or better, "true grit". You have a very distinct vim or vigor in your self-determination to follow the right course of action.

         However, this may at times be expressed too aggressively, Joseph Matthew Alberts, which may separate you at least intellectually, mentally or communicationswise from many of your associates and relations. This is a feature of your personality this lifetime that can either be constructive or destructive. Hence be sure to avoid going too far with your very active, determined drive toward self-expression.

Your Moon is in a harmonious aspect with Jupiter.

         High ennobling qualities are yours from your soul journey in the Jupiter sphere between lives. Uplifting influences, then, arise from your experiences in both your Jupiter sojourn and in past life positions of prominence, most likely on a high, history-making level as a spiritual leader. You are then, a loving, noble soul in your interactions with others, causing them to have faith in themselves (and in you).

         In fact, Joseph Matthew Alberts, with your greater possibilities in giving aid in every manner, you would make a WONDERFUL minister. You would also be successful in management, administration, economics an politics. Coming from your past lives of service on behalf of others, you may guide and direct many souls this lifetime.

         While you have quite a temper, you are very capable of controlling it and turning it into channels through which better influences come, both to yourself and to others.

         You should also have a greater deal of the world's material goods for you to use and share with others. You are therefore one with an elevating outlook and lifestyle, and will give a lot to the development of other souls.

         Drawing on the resourceful side of your akashic record -- where your soul development through caring service from past lives is stored -- you are likely to experience great blessings. While some may see you as "lucky", Joseph Matthew Alberts, what is really happening is that soul links from previous compassionate incarnations are attracted to you and want to help you. This good karma will especially bring you benefits in your home life, particularly concerning your mother, with whom you have a strong, mutually beneficial bond from your deep cosmic past.

Your Mercury is conjoined with Uranus.

         You may gain a world of influence for good from your brilliant mind as well as your powerful psychic and occult forces. Mercury rules the mind and Uranus, as a higher octave of Mercury, tunes the mind to higher clairvoyant levels. Especially in the intellectual arena, Joseph Matthew Alberts, you are very quick to perceive and intuit patterns, whether they be linguistic, mathematical, mechanical or more symbolic, like those of astrology and religion.

         From your Uranian experience, as well as a very eventful Atlantean previous incarnation, you are eccentric, actually something of an extremist, independent -- to the point of being too self-sufficient at times -- progressive, but most of all, psychic. All of these characteristics arise from your real efficiencies, yet can be used for weal or woe (like most Atlanteans, you are either very good or at times simply awful!)

         The more you parallel your psychic experiences with mental studies -- psychology, parapsychology, astrology, religion and philosophy -- the more you will become attuned. Do remember that your psi faculties are well to be developed if they are for giving aid, knowledge and understanding to others. If for self-glorification, such psychic powers and high mind forces will be a stumblingblock for yourself as well as others. In the latter case, clairvoyance and clairaudience could become for you experiences to be dreaded rather than accepted in the joy that belongs to any sensitive spirit.

         Because of the extraordinary intensity of this aspect, Joseph Matthew Alberts, there is a tendency to become overstrung, like tuning a sensitive musical instrument too tightly. One likely drawback lies in how individuals can become so burdensome and unbearable at times that all you can do is get away from them. This challenge is contradictory to your otherwise cooperative inclination to work together with others. However, through will's application towards moderation, compromise and humility, you have the ability to draw upon all your past earth experiences to use your psychic forces to influence many. You might best achieve this through your abilities as a writer, teacher and lecturer.

Your Mercury is harmoniously patterned with Venus.

         You have a special love of nature and all things natural and beautiful. You appreciate harmonies especially, Joseph Matthew Alberts, and have considerable ability in depicting natural rhythms and patterns through music and art. You would best direct these abilities into educational channels in conjunction with public speaking and lecturing. The emphasis in such presentations would be most helpful if artwork and music -- from film and video for instance -- were used to illustrate that which you are teaching rather than through lecturing without such audio and visual aids.

Your Venus is in a harmonious (sextile) aspect with Uranus.

         You were once an Atlantean.  Lifetimes since that distant time together with your afterlife experience in the love-beauty dimension of Venus (earned from a lifetime as an artist-musician, no doubt) and your indwelling in the psychic realm of Uranus have moderated the otherwise radical urges you acquired in Atlantis.

         Therefore, Joseph Matthew Alberts, while you are not nearly as eccentric and extremist as many others you know, your highly original, space-age Atlantean gifts and creative, artistic or musical talents may well bring you this lifetime a marked advance in spiritual growth or a decided step backward.

         Even your personal setbacks, such as sudden breakups with those close to you, are likely to quickly turn into distinct opportunities, as long as you maintain a clear link with your chosen ideal. In other words, Joseph Matthew Alberts, you can go to the heights of your remarkable creative abilities in almost any direction you wish to take, or you can blot out the opportunities which surround you.

         You manifest an extraordinary magnetism in the form of an uncanny ability to attract financial resources, the right friendships and love relationships from past lives. This magnetic power brings back to you this lifetime contacts with souls with whom you share unusual, exciting adventures and surprising experiences.

         While having high morals and spiritual ideals, these dynamic relationships and charged events may often prompt others to see you as inconsiderate and at times lacking in ethics. This for the most part false impression you project is largely due to your independence: appearing too self-sufficient and calculating. Depending entirely upon your ideals, motivation and intent, this can be a fault or a virtue.

         Social, small group situations together with gentleness, kindness, patience and virtues based on love in its pure, unconditional form are all benevolent influences in your life. You are very high-strung, intense and have a great variety of very unique, even eccentric interests and potential ways to express yourself. All of this is moderated when you feel life is treating you patiently, with love and sympathy.

         While you may carry it to excess at times, Joseph Matthew Alberts, you also have a strong tendency to be very sentimental as to individuals from your past, special places you have been, inspiring views of nature and other familiar conditions. Music, sacred dance, creatively revising songs already composed and writing poems and stories for children are all outlets through which you can make a virtue out of your attachment to sentiment and your remarkable creative gifts.

Your Mars is in an inharmonious pattern with Neptune.

         In making your soul flight back to begin a new earth life, you chose a day when malefic Mars and mysterious Neptune, the realm of illusion, were in a challenging pattern.  This choice of timing your return to earth life called up for you to meet certain challenges. For example, Joseph Matthew Alberts, deception must be avoided at all costs, whether it be insincerity and lack of honesty with yourself or with others. These difficulties with deception will come mostly through other people, and are likely to be projections from your past which are opportunities for transformation, healing and forgiveness.

         Also, misuse of psychic and spiritual forces in a past life requires redemption in the present. Another warning from this inharmonious aspect pattern is that any misuse or dependency on any form of drugs or alcohol will be very bad for you and should always be avoided.

         Moreover, from your experience in its realm between lifetimes, Neptune, lord of illusion and delusion (as well as spirituality and idealism), at times tends to hide your militant nature, especially where your defense of principles is involved. While you are frequently defending a principle or ideal, you may often be unable to define that ideal clearly with your associates at work or in personal relationships outside of your work.

        Regardless of what others may think of you, Joseph Matthew Alberts, and despite your own dissatisfaction with your behavior, you still present the image -- or illusion -- of self-assurance. Others, however, may misinterpret your self-confidence and good business sense, for instance, by feeling you use your friends at times excessively.

         One result of this may be an added tendency to hold petty grudges against these same souls (who, attracted to you from past lives, are probably just as disillusioned with you as you are with them: hence the need to force yourself to use will power to bring your honesty concerning conviction in line with its application).

         First, Joseph Matthew Alberts, you could make a clear decision to eliminate altogether from your consciousness obsessions and oppressions such as the determination to "get even" with others. This you can do entirely on your own by giving positive suggestions to your inner, soul consciousness through self-hypnosis.

         Through this basic psychological technique of subjugating your physical consciousness through auto-suggestion you can rid yourself of the need to show the power of your personality (which, you may feel, defends you against deception on the part of others). Having thus removed this determined attitude which has set you against others and at times has even made you soul-sick, you can proceed to seek your greater spiritual enlightenment this lifetime.

         Toward this ultimate goal study higher spiritual values and ideals such as those found in the Hebrew and Christian faiths. From a combination of your self-suggestions and Scripture studies you can arouse yourself to the point of reclaiming your soul's purpose. You can then see within yourself a new determination, as did the Prodigal Son, who said "I will arise and go to the Father, God." Then you will experience grace and mercy, peace and harmony, instead of deception and disillusionment.

              Your Sun is in Scorpio (Tropical zodiac).

         At times you may be considered by others as somewhat different, although on your own part, when those of comparable mental ability are part of your experience, you are known as a soul with nobleness of purpose and high-mindedness of principles. You are, Joseph Matthew Alberts, in other words, one who is ABOVE the ordinary and may go far in leading, directing and assisting many souls to reach a better understanding of elemental, universal principles.

         Long ago you may have been part of the once mighty Mongolian people of the ancient Gobi desert, or among the culturally advanced Chinese.  From such lifetimes as these, you have the ability to perform what is expected of you and to do what is necessary without being held back by your feelings or by considerations of a personal nature.  This is a strength you inherited from one or more past lives in these remote Asian cultures, whose people shared this self-denying trait.

         Perhaps you were once a young Chinese woman who gave birth to many children, ran a large household and pleased the master of the house.  You may have done all this while quietly enduring the agony of brutally bound feet which was once a rather cultural requirement of the true ladies of ancient China.

         Bear in mind that Mars is the planet of energy, power and war which rules or best symbolizes the essence of Scorpio. It may not be surprising then, that you may have been a Mongolian warrior who fought to the death for your tribal leader without hesitation or concern for your own injury or pain.

         Above all, Joseph Matthew Alberts, in these Asian past life settings, you had dignity, as you learned to cope with harsh conditions and challenges without wasting your energy on your personal needs.

         A more recent incarnation among Native Americans like the plains Indians is also likely.  Yet whether your life was among Orientals or American Indians, your characteristic past life suppression of individual feelings in sacrifice for the larger interests of your family, group or tribe may in the present make you appear cold, insensitive or uncaring, when you are actually very caring and compassionate.

              Your Moon is in Aries (Tropical zodiac).

         From Aries are found inclinations often to be considered by others as being headstrong. You may also be very hard to convince alongside judgments you have made which have been the determining factors in your experience. Yet once you are convinced of something, Joseph Matthew Alberts, you become very determined in that particular direction.

         This tendency toward self-determination and being headstrong is probably rooted in at least one lifetime in ancient Palestine.  Your likely link with the tribal nomads known as the Hebrews is expressed in your urge either to be a powerful yet somewhat dogmatic leader or to be inclined to follow someone with strong leadership qualities.

         Also, living in large or extended family units dominated by a strong director or leader (whether male or female), having special admiration for winners, or even being totally submissive to another person who you feel is somehow in charge of you and your life are characteristic inclinations from similar experiences long ago.

         Of course, Mars is the primary planet which symbolizes or rules the sign of Aries.  This makes Mars and martial urges of special significance to you this lifetime.  Therefore, Joseph Matthew Alberts, depending on whether or not you apply your will, responding to conflict situations with directness and force are likely to be among your subconscious urges.  These urges are from your prior experiences in the realm of Mars and from one or more past lives in the harsh, ancient desert culture of Israel and neighboring Arab lands.

         Also from Mars, the Ram influence and this past lifetime in ancient Canaan and Palestine you may feel a need not only to be a leader or director but to excel in your career or in more physical endeavors like exercising or a competitive activities such as sports.

           

 Your Sun is in Scorpio Decanate

     Your sidereal Sun is in SCORPIO decanate, which is ruled by Mars.  Mars as Past Life Planet points to an active, outdoor, courageous, passionate yet at times warlike nature.

     Your exceptional will to survive and endure is built up from military-related lifetimes in the ancient Greco-Roman world or more recently (within the past century) in pioneering experiences in Great Britain/Europe, colonial Asia, Africa and/or the Americas.
