5. Who were my parents, my spouse, my children, my brothers and sisters?

6. Who I was by profession?

7. Have I had any incarnations before living on the planet Earth?

8. What was my purpose? What I learned in this incarnation, what lessons I got?

9. Why does something hurt me, what is the cause of my illness or weakness?

10. How to compensate in this life for the evil that I did to people in a past life?

In addition to these questions, you will ask many other questions when you begin to explore the details of past incarnations, and this is good and beneficial. Develop your inner vision, examine the details of the surroundings or landscapes, remember dates and names. All of this, along with understanding the soul's purpose, life goals and tasks, will further become a spiritual map of your soul. And as it is known, the value of maps lies in leading to treasures! Even if you don't find a literal treasure (although it is possible in shamanic practices!), you will understand who you are, who you were, and where you are heading. This will provide you with support in life, strength, and tranquility.

And the most important thing: knowing the path and its ultimate goal, it is always easy to find opportunities to achieve it. The main problem of people in modern society is that they do not know what the purpose of their life is, where they should go and how to make the right choice. They do not live a full life, but only survive, not dreaming of more.

Viewing past lives provides many with an understanding of the right guidelines and fills their life with meaning. And a person who has a purpose and unbending intent can overcome much, even what may seem initially beyond their capabilities.

7. The practice of «Journey to the Upper World»

If during the course exercises you have encountered unusual landscapes (not existing in this world), encountered non-human beings (even mythical ones), or had dreams of fantastical cities or other planets, it may indicate that you have a hybrid soul.

Hybrid souls had been incarnated in other worlds before being born on planet Earth. What these worlds look like and how similar they are to our planet are beyond the scope of this course. (You may find information about these worlds in the second part of the book, «Conversations with Quetzalcoatl»).

Even if you don't have any signs of a hybrid soul, you should still try another shamanic practice called «Journey to the Upper World».

What is the shamanic Upper World

In the shamanic tradition, the Upper World is the sky, cosmos, stars, and the highest spiritual realm. In many religious and mystical systems, there is a belief that the heavens serve as the dwelling place for higher spiritual beings. These beings are described as airy, transparent, pure, radiant, and angelic, and they help us, looking with sympathy at the Middle World, the world of humans. For a long time, these accounts were often perceived as fairy tales, comforting fantasies, or invented worlds. However, there are people who firmly believe that someone is «watching over» them from the heavens. It may be an individual guide, a deceased (disincarnate) relative, or a higher being.

In Michael Newton's book «Destiny of Souls» such entities are called spirit guides. They are souls of ordinary people, but more spiritually developed than their charges, somewhat like spiritual teachers. The question arises: if so many people believe in this, could it be true? A big advantage of this course is that you can independently seek answers to these questions through the practice of «Journey to the Upper World».
