Do you have an inexplicable longing for the clamor of the battlefield, the thrill of facing danger, and the company of your fellow fighters? You may have been a warrior in a past life. For some souls, the call of combat is eternal.
If any of the following signs resonate with you, you just might have marched under the banner of armies long gone. Even if you are a skeptic and do not believe in past lives, keep reading and see if any of these signs make you think twice!
You Feel Drawn To Weapons, Armor, or Camo Patterns
You may feel a strange familiarity with swords, shields, weapons, bombs, and other ancient combat tools. You’re fascinated by historic military leaders and pivotal wars that shaped civilization. Something about that period of history just calls to you.
Perhaps you are even into camouflage clothes, modern weapons, military airplanes, tanks, or cars. There’s just something about that whole military world that gets your attention.
Intense Dreams or Flashbacks
Dreams of being in battle, wearing armor, or fighting enemies could be glimpses into your past life as a soldier. Pay attention to symbols, locations, and any emotions evoked. They may reveal clues to help you rediscover your warrior spirit.
Maybe in your dreams, you see yourself on a battlefield, charging into battle or defending a fortress. These kinds of recurring war scenes or flashbacks of combat in dreams can signify echoes of a past life as a soldier or a warrior.
When we’re sleeping, our minds are wide open, like an open window on a nice summer day, as I always say. Sleep is great for letting your subconscious mind reveal all the stuff that’s usually hidden away. Dreams usually show you what’s going on underneath, even if you aren’t aware of it during the day.
You’re Feeling Drawn To A Particular Time Period
Do you feel a strong affinity for a particular era like ancient Rome, the Middle Ages, or World War II? If so, it’s possible you lived during that period in a past life as a soldier or military leader. You may even feel drawn to reenacting famous battles or learning about key military figures from that time.
Even visiting historical sites can feel familiar sometimes. For example, walking through a concentration camp may give you a serious deja vu. Same with battlefields and old forts – places will just feel comfortable even though logically you’ve never been there before.
A Thirst For Adventure And Action
As a warrior in a past life, you likely lived a life full of adrenaline, courage, and sacrifice. This could translate into a desire for adventure, physical challenges, and even danger in your current life. You may feel confined by a routine existence and crave excitement and action.
It’s in your warrior spirit to seek out excitement and push your limits. While others may be content to play it safe, for you, each day is another opportunity to test your mettle. The past life of a warrior still influences you today it seems.
Strong Sense of Duty or Honor
A strong sense of duty and honor is a key sign you may have been a soldier in a past life. If you feel a calling to serve others or a cause greater than yourself, this points to a warrior spirit.
As a warrior, your life’s purpose was to defend and protect. This instilled in you a devotion to duty – the obligation to serve when called upon and do what needed to be done. You likely feel a pull to champion the underdog or vulnerable. This drive to serve a higher good and defend what you believe in is a hallmark of a warrior’s honor and courage.
Let’s do a quick check-in. Think about these questions and count how many times you answer yes:
- Do you feel dissatisfied or restless if you’re not actively working to aid or advance a cause?
- Are you fiercely devoted to your principles and values? Are you the kind of person who really stands by what they believe in?
- Do you gravitate towards professions like military, law enforcement, activism, or community service?
- Do you have a strong moral code and sense of justice?
If these traits resonate with you, it’s possible you wore the mantle of a warrior in a past life. The dedication to duty and honor you cultivated then may live on in you today.
Birthmarks or Physical Characteristics
Do you have any scars on your body that you’ve had since birth? They could be marks left over from battle wounds in a past life. For example, a birthmark on your chest in the shape of an “X” may indicate a sword wound. A mark on your arm that resembles an arrow puncture could point to an archery-related injury from combat long ago. And having a triangle birthmark could be a sign that you were a big-time warrior in a past life!
These kinds of markings often appear in areas that would have been left exposed by armor or vulnerable during hand-to-hand combat. While not all birthmarks or scars relate to a past life, if you have one in an unusual place that really stands out, it’s possible it has a deeper meaning.
Strong Affinity For A Particular Historical Era
Do you feel a strong connection to a particular era in history, like the Middle Ages or Ancient Egypt? This could be a sign that you lived a past life as a warrior or soldier during that time.
This affinity could manifest as a fascination with Egyptian culture, religion or a desire to visit the pyramids and temples. You may also feel a strong connection to Egypt’s spiritual practices or a longing for the simplicity of life along the Nile. Past life memories often surface through these types of interests, dreams, or sensations of déjà vu.
Don’t Suppress Your Warrior Spirit
The life of a warrior is one of strength, courage, loyalty, and sacrifice. If any of these traits resonate strongly with you today, it could be an indicator that you lived a life as a soldier or fighter long ago. But whether or not you believe in reincarnation, there are lessons we can draw from the warrior spirit.
We can all tap into that inner strength and bravery when times get tough. We can stand up for what we believe in and fight for justice and truth. There may not be battlefields to charge into anymore, but life still presents many opportunities to be courageous.
