If you’ve got a wild and adventurous spirit, chances are good you didn’t spend all your past lives as a librarian or accountant. Maybe in one of your past lives, you lived on the edge and pushed the boundaries of social norms.
Don’t be surprised if you discover signs that in a past life, you were actually a prostitute. Before you get all judgy, prostitutes have been around since the beginning of civilization, and they have served an important role in many societies. If any of these five signs sound familiar, you just may have been a prostitute in a past life.
You Have An Understanding of “The” Industry
You just seem to instinctively understand the ins and outs of the world’s oldest profession. The risks, rewards, and realities of this type of work are familiar to you in a way that makes others uncomfortable. It’s like you’ve lived it before – because you probably have, in another life as a prostitute.
Perhaps you’re open-minded about legalizing prostitution. After all, you believe sex workers should have rights and protections like any other profession. And maybe you find yourself less judgmental about the reasons why people enter into sex work. Sometimes circumstances lead to hard choices, and you get that.
You’re Drawn To Red Light Districts or Bars
You find yourself curiously drawn to red light districts and former brothels. There’s something oddly familiar and comforting about these places. In a past life, your spirit may have frequented them regularly.
As a prostitute in the past life, you relied on these areas to attract customers and ply your trade. Now, in the present, you feel a strange sense of nostalgia in these locations. Your soul remembers the lively atmosphere, the crowds, and even the smells – for better or worse.
Don’t be surprised if you also feel at home in bars, taverns, and other places where people gather to drink, gamble, and find “companionship”. Your past self probably spent a lot of time in these venues, waiting to catch the eye of a potential patron.
Some People Repulse You
Certain types of men may repulse you in ways that feel almost instinctual. Their personalities, behaviors, or energy just don’t sit right with you, even if you can’t quite put your finger on why.
If a man comes on too strong right away, it can feel threatening and trigger feelings of disgust. Pushy men who don’t respect boundaries may repel you.
You Can’t Have Fun Without Alcohol
If partying and drinking go hand in hand for you, to the point where you don’t feel comfortable socializing without some liquid courage, this may indicate a past life as a prostitute.
Many prostitutes turn to substance abuse as a coping mechanism to deal with the emotional demands of their work and the stigma surrounding it. Alcohol and drugs can help numb some of the emotional pain and make the act of servicing clients more bearable.
If you find that you struggle to relax and enjoy yourself at social events without a drink in hand, this pattern may stem from a past life where alcohol was a necessity to deal with the demands of your work.
Vivid Dreams or Memories of Being A Prostitute
Your subconscious stores away things that our conscious mind may have forgotten, and these memories often emerge in dreams. If you wake up feeling distressed or ashamed after having these dreams, it could indicate they are tapping into a past life experience you still carry with you on a soul level.
Past life trauma related to prostitution may have imprinted on your psyche and now manifests in your dream state as your mind works to process unresolved emotions while you sleep.
It’s Hard For You To Connect Emotionally
If you find it challenging to connect emotionally with romantic partners, it could indicate that in a past life, you were a prostitute. When intimacy and relationships are transactional, it can be difficult to open up fully and bond deeply with another person.
The inability to merge souls on a profound level may feel familiar to you, even in your current life. You tend to hold back parts of yourself to protect your heart. Letting your guard down and allowing someone to see all of who you are can feel terrifying.
You can’t “cancel” your past life, but you can rewrite your current life. Make eye contact, give hugs, and say “I love you” often. Engage in meaningful conversations. Do things together. Make the choice to be vulnerable by taking emotional risks. In time, the walls around your heart will crumble, and you’ll find yourself capable of deep, abiding love.
Fear of Intimacy
Shying away or having trouble opening up to romantic partners could be yet another sign you were a prostitute in a past life.
You might be scared to get intimate with a partner or be naked in front of them. There’s a part of you that wants to, but another part just isn’t comfortable with it. It’s like you’ve got two voices inside fighting with each other; an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other.
It’s possible this fear comes from your past trauma when working as a prostitute. Perhaps you have gone through some tough experiences, were being taken advantage of, or even hurt physically.
