Rebirth (Circa 10 AD – Present)

While doing research into reincarnation, I came to the strange conclusion that I have lived many times before. Why is that strange? Because some of those lives overlapped and some were living jointly with others. So, to say that reincarnation in astrology is not a hard and fast science is an understatement.

Tiberius Julius Alexander Jr.

I’m starting here because his birth (entirely) unknown is in the Common Era. It is represented by Saturn in my birth chart, so that tells me his life was somehow connected with the Roman Empire. His death is also unknown, so that limits me as far as ‘proving’ this life as one of my past lives. However, a significant event, the Siege of Jerusalem is knowable, so that helped me look at that time period and my present life. As TJA was an Equestrian, his life was the beginning of my knight-errant history.

Count Roland

Being one of Charlemagne’s Paladins seems a bit exulted, but there’s no denying that I was alive during that time period. Paladin: Have Gun – Will Travel as a TV show in my childhood may have been my first clue. Most knights were the equivalent of hired guns. This life is represented by my Libra South Node conjunct Mars.

William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke

This lifetime became known to me earlier this year. It explains my ‘affinity’ with Henry II and my awareness that I was a Templar Knight in that time period, even if only for one day. This is represented in my chart as Neptune. However, the timing is off by about 300 years, so it might also be represented by my natal Moon in Scorpio.

Henry VII

Now we’re getting into the speculative realm of the Tudors. There are no planets that correspond to this time frame, but my experience is broader, and represents how my life today intersects with many members of my family from the past.

Pierre Esprit Radisson

Because this individual is so close to my heart when it comes to a Canadian backstory, I tend to regard him as the ‘real’ me from the past. My Ascendant is represented as his coming of age (also matching his natal Ascendant) in 1652. I also experienced his life in a hypnotic regression in 1982. 330 years is nothing to scoff at. There is further symbolism there.

John Frederick Parker

This life represents a major ‘failing’ from the past. Stepping away during the intermission to have a drink on the night that Abraham Lincoln was shot, while acting as his personal bodyguard, created a major shift in my karma. The key to the timing of 1855 is Venus in Aquarius, which I shared with my astrology partner Kate (hers is Mars in Aquarius.) I have speculated that my son and grandson were connected to Lincoln and his son. That makes the guilt extra powerful.

Richard Sorge (“Ramsay”)

This may be the life of the person I shared with my friend David. (In reality, I may be grasping at straws.) Ramsay’s birth year is symbolized by the position of my natal Sun in Aquarius. The ‘spy’ energy is one that I recognize as applicable to me in the present time, but I cannot be too sure, since my ‘gun-for-hire’ persona didn’t survive even 50 years. But it does bring to an end my work in the field, as it were.

Conclusion

If I were a betting man, and I’m not, I would suggest that I’ve had a lot of lives that has interfered with others. My punishment, now, is the ‘lone wolf’ life that I live now. Hopefully, this is penance for my past. What do you think?
