Question
I have had experiences with strange dreams and hearing a man calling me Krista or Kristia since I could remember, but it seems to be more active through the months of October and early April then seem to fade. I am starting to believe it is the reason I keep people at a distance especially men.I was wondering could I have left something unfinished in a previous life?

Answer
Hi, Christy!

We ALWAYS have unfinished business from past lives! :D

Keep a journal of your dreams and other indications that you feel point to past life memories. Don't try to make sense of them - just record the fragments of what you think. This is important - too often we try to make sense of what we recall then connect dots that aren't really there.

You can meditate and plant the desire for more information to come through your dreams. Once I wanted to be sure who someone was in a past life and concentrated on the question, until I had a dream in which men took me to the person my friend had been, and made it very clear. I had many, many doubts about one of my past personas, until I had a dream of screaming I was a fraud, I was making everything up! I was so frustrated with myself in that dream. But someone I know now walked by and casually said hello, calling me by my past name, and prompting me to call him by his past name, letting me know it was all right. I have not doubted myself since.

We seem to remember what we need in order to address our unfinished business in new ways, so get started on that journal! If you need any help, let me know...
