One of the questions I ask in a regression occurs immediately after we examine the client’s death in whatever life they are exploring. The question is–“What are your last thoughts as your soul transitions from the physical back into spirit?” I ask whether they had any regrets? Were they proud of their accomplishments? Did they have any unfinished business?
Final thoughts in any given lifetime are very powerful, because they often set up the next lifetime. They program the soul to focus on the last remnants of a particular life in order to course correct in the next one. There is always the goal of a harmonious, centered life, so if we go too far to the left or right, the soul will create a situation designed to bring us back to center. These last thoughts, then, become a mental mantra that replays over and over in our subconscious, coloring our attitudes and life choices the next time we are in a physical body.
In my years of doing regressions, I have found that there is a common thread to last thoughts. Some of the thoughts that clients have stated include:
“I wish I had married and had children and made sure of a life with a family.”
“I want to come back and make it right.”
“I shouldn’t have allowed myself to be controlled.”
“I didn’t feel loved or supported.”
“I’m afraid of getting rejected.”
I have told the story often of the woman who came to me with head-to-toe psoriasis. She wanted to know its origin. We traced it to a prior life in which she was a prostitute in the old west. When asked what were her last thoughts as she left that life, she said: “I don’t want to be touched anymore.” In this life, she created a skin condition in which no one wants to touch her!
Edgar Cayce said “thoughts are things” and certainly, last thoughts are very powerful things! By far the most common last thoughts are about a lack of love, or spending more time with family. These regrets lead to opportunities in this life to find love or create a close-knit family life. Karma, or cause and effect, is very much in play with final thoughts.
But take heart. Not all final thoughts set up painful karmic conditions that must be addressed in the next life. Often–and to the surprise of men and women who experience them–a very pleasant, happy, loving last thought is expressed. Many acknowledge they led a happy, drama-free life. They experienced love and a closeness to their spiritual selves. They had friends and had a satisfying career. This is because we all experience a respite from some of the more exhausting elements of life on earth. Many times, we sandwich a beautiful, stress-free life, between two challenging ones so we can regroup and face what is ahead in the next incarnation. It’s never anything we can’t handle and we certainly have a litany of spiritual helpers to get us through even the toughest assignments.
And so my friends, if I have any advice, it is this. Be careful where your thoughts take you at that moment of death, for you most certainly will reap what you sow!
