“You’re an old soul!” Has someone ever told you this before? Sometimes, people even use the term “old soul” when referring to babies, toddlers, and children. What does it mean?
Do our souls really age?
Reincarnation and Your Spiritual Journey
Before we are reborn as humans, we already planned the journey that we will make. Our souls teamed up with our Master Teachers to create our life blueprint.
When we are born, we learn that we have free will. Thus, we create our own lives through the decisions we make. These life decisions create causes and effects.
When we live in this world, our thoughts, actions, and deeds have equal and opposite reactions – that’s what they call karma. However, one lifetime isn’t enough to pay off our karma and to fulfill our life’s blueprint. Thus, it takes hundreds of lifetimes for us to burn off all our karmic debt and to live the life we planned.
So, what is an old soul?
Often times, we hear the word “old soul”. To some people, they believe that old souls are those young people who prefer classic, vintage style, music, and fashion. However, being an old soul is more than just that.
In terms of reincarnation and spiritual journey, an old soul is someone who’s had hundreds of lifetimes here on the earth plane. So he or she has been born here hundreds of times before this lifetime.

You actually mentioned I was likely an old soul in a recent personal email so I went ahead and looked up characteristics of old souls and did a random quiz thing to try to determine exact age and potential amount of past lives. I expected they’d be somewhat inaccurate but I didn’t expect this. Only one gave a numerical estimate which claimed I had near enough 1000 past lives. Tana has a 450 past life count so I doubt I’m anything above that. For now I’m just passing that off, though Tana did explain here that it’s near impossible to know without a past life reading.
This seems simple until you add starseed souls into the mix. For example, as opposed to human specific old souls who don’t care for technology as much, since starseed souls are more familiar with advanced technology, they’d tend to be more avid computer wizzes.
I would then be under this category. Not necessarily as a starseed. I have no idea if I am in that regard. However starseeds do tend to be more introverted and avid with computers and apparently have a higher intelligence. They also feel out of place within human society which definitely resonates to me.
However starseeds are an entirely different story. Most were probably originally human before that anyway. Some people tend to come under the impression they’re all from one place which isn’t actually true.
Then again, since Tana never mentions anything like starseeds, they might even be a falsehood. I mean if there are alien walk-ins I don’t see why they would be. I believe they exist so that’s enough for me until proven otherwise (though I’ll likely ask Tana of their existence during an eventual reading).
I also read somewhere old souls prefer not to have children because that would create drama and karma. I kinda agree cause seeing the big picture the world is not getting better and having our young holding the bag saddens me.
