#former lives

You like ruling, but like in a fair way, you are into politics and think that castles and historical court life are interesting? Then you probably were a king or queen in one of your former lives.

You are kinda childish, but in a good way? Everything is a miracle to you? Can't really get rid of your childhood? You probably died in a very young age in one life.

You feel fascinated by camouflage and military things? Peace is no option in life for you? You probably were also a soldier, who maybe even died in battle.

Hello guys! First of all, I would like to say please excuse the third pile in the first picture below. The third pile will not be apart of the pick-a-card reading! When I started going through that spread, I felt like it was tampered with and conflicting, so I won’t be including. Since I couldn’t take another picture, I hope no one minds.

Second, thank you all for almost 500 followers! I do plan to open my shop soon, I actually have for the past few weeks, but as a minor it is so difficult to get my father to actually get my bank account information. I’ve been waiting for so long but he keeps putting it off, so no PayPal, Etsy, kofi, anything.. but I will make sure he truly will before summer ends!

🌑These spreads picture my new alligator teeth and buffalo bone 🌑

I hope you find the one you connect most too and that it offers some insight to past lives. If you feel that you connect to none, I’ll try to make another pick a card reading soon that’s more general rather then specific like these!

Pile One ~ Amethyst

So I feel like in this past life, you were some sort of traveler, but still didn't go too far from your homeland. I think most of you were actually kind of running errands for the kingdom or palace wherever you were serving and mostly traveled around the place by water or to nearby borders and outside villages. You knew some sort of person though — someone that you generally trusted who was actually at heart a sly person, or perhaps was greedy and had been offered something if they were to complete a task. I think in different past life cases this person was either a uncle, a crewmate, or someone sent from the palace to maybe view the incoming ships and keep everything in order. You kind of took notice of warning signs of this person being faulty all of a sudden, and you began to grow a bit more curious about it when other people began to notice it as well, perhaps other crew mates, but you really didn't want to believe it. But I think the reason they were after you was because you knew something that they didn't want you knowing, or the ruler of the kingdom or whatever didn't want to be exposed, and this person might've actually been recently hired/ordered to keep an eye on you. Eventually you discovered their intentions, either that or you leaked to them what you knew about, and they tried to rid of you or capture you and somehow you ended up getting away. You were injured and couldn't show your face again. You saw clearly then what was happening. I don't think that most of you who got this past life actually killed the person, but instead fled and stayed hidden. This fight likely took place at the shipping docks or somewhere near water, probably at night time, and you either fled on foot or took some sort of small boat and settled down outside of the kingdom, soon seeking help from commoners. Eventually you took your knowledge and researched deeper into what you learned and became a higher rank; possibly a philosopher or teacher. You became very recognized and successful.

Pile Two ~ Rose Quartz

You seemed to live in a village or waterside town, I really feel like Italy or somewhere near there. You were pretty close to a small group of people you hung out with sometimes — I get the sense that there were one or two that were more of mutuals though. You were in a very troublesome and threatening situation. You wanted to ask for help from them when the situation became more and more dangerous, but were too scared or in doubt so you just put on a strong and reserved shield. This situation was probably legal related or perhaps for some of you sort of debt or trade that you or your parents hadn't payed; you dealt with some wrong people and realized it, so you tried to back out but they decided to come after you. So eventually you actually end up telling this small group of people, it's probably around five people I'm getting, but it ends up with a couple of them being hurt or even dying because of it. Not dying in most cases, though. Maybe their statuses were just hurt or they were somehow hated by being exposed about something. You really cared for these people and were horrified when this happened, while the rest of the group just seemed shocked. You were still caught in this eternal web, this nasty situation, you couldn't escape and you hated yourself for dragging others into it to be hung alongside you as prey. But this situation stopped abruptly when you left whenever you were living. Because elephants are know to travel in groups, I’m getting that the group went with you to protect themselves and to get out of the mess as well. Some of you had to go your separate ways, but you and one or two of them stayed together for quite a amount of years and seemed to live by the.. sea. I really think the Mediterranean still? Possibly the Greek area, which I also got with the vines and all. But again, earlier I said Italy, so I really think it was somewhere in that area. But after this, you learned from your mistakes and decided to never bring anyone into anything so difficult again. You stuck with your new community and became some sort of either food grower, Gardner, or trader.

Pile Three ~ Quartz

In this life, you had some sort of health problem, possibly chronic that kept you from what you dreamed to be — which I think was some sort of military person (I feel like this was a more recent life for some people). But you finally recognized that you couldn't do it because you would be too restricted and unable to carry out the important task. Still, you worked hard to carve a good life and developed ideas that really made a good profit and helped you grow a lot! It helped you to be more grounded and work with what you had. You brought new dreams and ideas to life. It balanced out your energy and helped the chronic illness kind of wear away and then you could work with it and shape your life around it successfully. You welcomed purity into your life and your minds became balanced and amplified your intentions. The new direction you chose was for the better good and brought you success!

Former Lives

Dust in The Sunlight unveil their intoxicating new single ‘Former Lives’ 

London based two-piece Dust In The Sunlight share a drop of lush escapism in the form of ‘Former Lives’. Glacial vocals transcend into orchestral strings and weighless synths, delivering a flawless antidote for any lingering winter blues.

Written as a response to society's insatiable pressures and expectations, ‘Former Lives’ is here to help take the weight off. Sharing more, the band explain: “’Former Lives’ is about the pressure and immediacy of modern life making you feel like you have to be a million things at once… but actually what you really need to do is let go of that ideology and find your own pace and sense of self. It’s very easy to forget where you’ve come from and everything you’ve been through to get to where you are now… I think the lyrics are about helping each other find that again. “

Taken from their sophomore EP, due for release later this year, ‘Former Lives’ is the second single to be revealed from the new record.
