Quotes:

While some spiritual locales are difficult for my subjects to describe, most love to talk about the place of life selection, and they use remarkably similar descriptions.  I am told it resembles a movie theater which allows souls to see themselves in the future, playing different roles in various settings. Journey of Souls, p.207

The place of future life selection is seen as a sphere containing highly concentrated force fields of glowing energy screens...characterized as the Ring of Destiny....which surround them completely while they are situated in a shadowed viewing area.  The Ring displays futuristic scenes of events and people the soul will encounter in the life to come. Destiny of Souls, p.355

Question: As a spirit in heaven considers where they should reincarnate, the nature of their location and their parents, and life, what sort of environment does the spirit use in order to visualize and make this decision?  Is he in like a theater or a library?  Could you describe anything about the environment that a reincarnating spirit might use in heaven?

Spirit Guide: Oftentimes the spirit who is going to be returning to earth, reincarnating back to earth, will do much study on what he thinks will help him with his lessons the best.  Sometimes he will sit and view, and please remember as we use these terms sit and view, that it is only because it is words that help give you a visualization.  It is not exactly  the way the spirit is doing what they are doing, but the spirit will review the challenges that he has been faced with, how he has met these challenges, and maybe he forgot some of the lessons regarding the challenges, and he will look at the parents and families that are presented to him to return to earth and live with.

He will be given visions telepathically of the various families that he could possibly go and be a part of.  This can take place with the assistance of angels at this time, and his best path is narrowed down and he begins to think what would be the best family. Not only will the angels be with him and his spirit guides will be with him sometimes. Even more advanced guides will come and help him in conclusion of his reviewing families and thinking he has picked the one he feels is a best fit for him.  

You can picture yourself in contemplation over very big decisions.  As you would, you would often do your research in terms of people involved, of situations, and the spirit does the same thing.  Oftentimes they are sitting with their spirit guides, reviewing these lives together telepathically.  Or they will telepathically come to visit with the families so they can then make their choice.  The angels are with them all the time in this and the spirit guides come and go in this decision.  

You would see the spirit off to itself in a place that felt comfortable for him, as he contemplates what the life would be next.  Generally, the family really is already picked but this gives the spirit help and information in how he has faced his challenges and he most likely always picks the one that his spirit guides have thought would be the best as well, but it is his choice and if it is different from his spirit guides, they cannot and will not interrupt with the decision the spirit has made.

The spirit guides do not agree with the results obtained from Michael Newton's clients but rather indicate the the place of life selection is not a specific location.  Rather, it is in spiritual surroundings which are comfortable for the incarnating spirit and allow him to visualize future families and conduct discussions with angels and spirit guides who are helping him make a selection.

Quotes:

One of the last requirements before embarkation for many souls is to go before the Council of Elders for the second time.  While some of my subjects see the Council only once between lives, most see them right after death and just before rebirth. Journey of Souls, p.261

Question: Do spirits always go before the Council of Elders in preparation for embarkation on their next life,  a second meeting with this Council?

Spirit Guide: It does not have to happen always but we feel that the majority of those returning will be given further assistance and understanding the challenges and with whom he will be sharing those challenges in his next reincarnate life.

The spirit guides agree with the results obtained from Michael Newton's clients that a second visit with the Council of Elders generally takes place prior to reincarnation.

Quote: Typically, a highly advanced soul will bring no more than 25 percent of its total capacity to Earth where the average, less confident soul has 50-70 percent. Destiny of Souls, p.117

Question: What governs the percent of its total capacity, or spiritual energy,  which is left in heaven by the reincarnating spirit--20%, 50%?  How is that determined?

Spirit Guide: Always a very small amount of the spirit's last human life remains there in heaven as that spirit goes on to reincarnate in a new life. All of the personalities of who that spirit has been in all of its lives unite to be all of who it has always been.

Question: And so the energy that is retained in the spirit world does contain significantly the melding of all the past lives with the most recent life, only in a small amount?

Spirit Guide: This is correct.  We believe that that this is true, that that spirit and all the other spirits of each life, are formed there to make a small percentage left in heaven of the real reincarnating individual.  All of the former past lives unite with the most recent one.

The spirit guides disagree with the results obtained from Michael Newton's clients that a significant and variable percentage of the spirit's total energy is left in heaven.  Instead, they believe that only a small percentage is left, not a large variable amount,  and that this percentage contains a blending of all previous past lives of the reincarnating spirit.

Quotes: The key viewing years of a new life seem to be between eight and twenty, when the first major forks in life begin to emerge.  Many people tell me they are shown certain years in great detail while other parts of their future life are completely left out. Destiny of Souls, p.356

Spirits do not routinely see their deaths in future lives.  If souls choose a life where their death will be premature, they often see it in the place of life selection. Journey of Souls, p.220

Question: When spirits are being shown the various future lives which they may incarnate into, how much detail is generally given to them?

Spirit Guide: A great deal of detail is given to them from what is available.  As you know, there is always choice and much of that detail will be changed but it is shown to them as it is known at that time.  There are many outside influences that can change that for them but they are looking for the life that will give them the best energy to move forward in their consciousness to raise their consciousness in their upcoming human life.

Question: Is there any part of this life, for example, their teenage years or their midlife years or their old age years, is there any part of the possible future life they are being shown that seems to get more emphasis as far as the detail that is provided them?

Spirit Guide: This is true.  The more emphasis is placed upon the most challenging times and the best times for their growth.

Question: When spirits are being shown a possible future life, are they also shown the circumstances of their death?

Spirit Guide: When a spirit is to return to its human form, and we are just talking about earth spirits at this point, we are not talking about any other beings that are in the universe.  Spirits are shown what their life will be like and most of the times they will be shown what their deaths are to be.  But that is a contract that they feel they have made to return to earth but in making this contract they are often told there could be a change in what they had been shown because of other energies intercepting on earth because of all earth beings having free will.  And sometimes the deaths that they have are not the deaths that were shown to them and they are quite surprised but they have also been told at any time to be prepared for a change of events because of, again, free will of human spirit.  This free will that they have could also be the cause of their own deaths which they were not shown.  So it does not always have to be because of another energy intercepting their energy.  This can be a cause of some free choice that they made upon earth in their human form.

The spirit guides agree with Michael Newton's results concerning the considerable amount of detail which is available to help the returning spirit select a new earth life.  They stress that times of challenge and growth will be highlighted.  They disagree about the extent to which a potential future human death may be described, however, feeling that this information will often be available.  An important contribution to understanding potential future lives is the spirit guide's stress on the importance of human energies causing changes in the forecasted life and death.
