a) For reasons unrelated to occultism, I've decided to learn Arabic; I figured that being able to access more geomancy texts in the future would be a fringe benefit, but it turns out this has had a much faster effect: since I started studying Arabic, my geomancy practice has suddenly become much easier, much more accurate, and much more precise; which I find very interesting given geomancy is originally Arabic. This has gotten me thinking about the link between languages and symbolism, and by extension, occult practices. Do you know if anyone has looked into this?
b) I've had a string of past life memories surface over the last few years. I've had divination done, and it seems that these are accurate past life memories. I haven't been diligent about spiritual practices, although I do a little, it's very undisciplined; I don't think I've burnt any significant amount of karma; and I am at a loss as to what could be driving them to emerge. What sort of factors could prompt around a dozen past lives to emerge in the space of a few years?
If it matters, I seem to be a very old soul; and while the original mistake I made that lead to me getting stuck here is still lost to the fog of time, I can now remember three major mistakes I've made that lead to a lot of negative karma and played a major role in keeping me here far longer than usual.
