Good morning friends!
This question is for my experienced evolutionary astrologers whom I am sure have done many many readings to clients using the EA paradigm. I came across a man who was interested in having his chart read, however, he does not believe in reincarnation/past lives. How do you approach a reading when someone is not open to reincarnation, but open to having their chart read?
Looking forward to your responses and insight.
Thank you all
@Natasha In my experience, much like JWG has said, people are picking up in the current life from where they left of in the previous life. This implies that indeed in many cases a person will be living out dynamics from the past while they are in the process of forming their consciousness within the body. This can be seen via Saturn cycles 0-7, 7-14, 14-21 and 21-28 (give or take a year or so). From my perspective this is why the Saturn return can be especially challenging, particularly if the person's evolutionary journey has been difficult, stagnant or traumatic in recent lives (seen via aspects to the lunar nodes, among other parts of the chart). From what I have observed, this does mean that the early life experience may be lived through a "thicker filter" of past life influences/experiences. Of course results will vary and we need to ask questions and correlate that data to the chart, check for skipped steps, planets on the south node and observe how they are experiencing and manifesting those archetypes. For those that I know who have been able to access past life memories, including myself, yes, early life experiences and circumstances will reflect or even be like a ripple of what happened in the past life(s).
