Life Between Lives - The Soul's Intermission and Review

The Interval Between Incarnations​

Between death and rebirth, the soul enters a non-physical phase often called the interlife - a realm of expanded awareness where identity loosens, clarity returns, and the next incarnation is prepared. This space is not static or uniform; it's shaped by soul maturity, energetic frequency, and the lessons being integrated.

Core Elements of the Interlife​

While individual experiences vary, consistent features appear in near-death experiences (NDEs), spiritual regressions, and mystical reports:

1. Life Review​

  • A panoramic re-experiencing of the previous life

  • Felt from all perspectives involved (not just one's own)

  • Not judged, but understood through the lens of soul growth

  • Emphasizes intent, impact, and missed opportunities

  • Often facilitated by guides or council-like presences

2. Reconnection With Soul Identity​

  • Shedding the "personality suit" from the previous incarnation

  • Reuniting with the Higher Self or core soul essence

  • Remembering soul purpose, previous lives, and mission

  • Dissolving emotional residues and integrating experiences

3. Healing and Integration​

  • Energy bodies are cleansed, balanced, or restructured

  • Trauma or unresolved emotional densities are processed

  • Soul may rest in a vibrational zone aligned with its frequency (some traditions describe this as "planes" or "spheres")

4. Meeting the Soul Group​

  • Reuniting with souls who journey together across lifetimes

  • Reviewing roles played, contracts fulfilled or incomplete

  • Planning new collaborations or parting ways for different paths

5. Council of Elders or Guides​

  • A group of wise, non-incarnated beings who assist in evaluating the life just lived

  • Offer neutral insights, not commands

  • Help explore lessons learned, recurring patterns, and next growth points

  • Present options for future incarnation themes

6. Pre-Birth Planning Begins​

  • Selection of potential future lifetimes: themes, families, challenges

  • Revisiting unresolved karma or soul contracts

  • Choosing circumstances that best support soul evolution

Time and Identity in the Interlife​

  • Time is non-linear - souls may reflect on multiple incarnations at once

  • The soul is not limited to a single gender, culture, or species identity

  • Individuality remains, but is less rigid - more merged with collective awareness

Purpose of the Interlife​

This phase is not a reward or punishment. It's a regrouping zone, a return to clarity before the next descent into amnesia and duality. Its purpose:

  • Integration

  • Course correction

  • Soul-level decision-making

  • Renewal of mission

Variability of Experience​

Not all souls have the same interlife experience. Variables include:

  • Level of soul development

  • Type of death (traumatic vs. peaceful)

  • Karma left unresolved

  • Degree of self-awareness at death

Some souls re-enter quickly (especially in trauma loops). Others rest for centuries. Some may act as guides or healers before choosing to return.

Key Takeaway"​

The interlife is not fantasy. It is a deeper reality where the veil is lifted. The "you" that remembers love, service, and wisdom between lifetimes is the true you - this current personality is only a page in the book.
