Déjà vu washes over you. Something about this current life feels familiar, as if you’ve been here before or have done this before. What if you have?

FURTHER: Who You Were in a Past Life, Based on Zodiac Sign
1st, 10th, and 19th
An enterprising yet independent past life finds those born on the 1st, 10th, and 19th. You may have suspected that you played a part in an important discovery, expedition, or breakthrough. Exploring the great beyond would have been your soul’s calling, so traveling far and wide would have been your life. Although you may have been well-traveled, you could have felt lonely. Leaving your family behind or forgoing the dream of having a family altogether was the trade-off for discovering a new part of this world. You’ll know if your soul has been somewhere before if you naturally understand how to navigate an otherwise foreign environment. Let this be your sign to take that dream vacation to a place your soul feels called to as a way to return to yourself.
2nd, 11th, and 20th
Born on the 2nd, 11th, or 20th? You had a quiet, peaceful past life. It might not sound inherently exciting, but that’s not necessarily the case. In another life, you were the go-to person for settling disputes, disagreements, and so much more. Everyone knew you to be fair and just. Having a balanced personality meant you were determined to create harmony among others. Since you approached each conflict with sensitivity and agreeability, you might have held the official position of being a mediator. It’s not unlikely that you could have held a position in the courts or in law enforcement. Being a mediator wasn’t easy if you disliked conflict, but you had the skill and emotional intelligence to settle the score. It wouldn’t be surprising if you continue to seek resolution in this lifetime.

3rd, 12th, 21st, and 30th
Do you love learning, reading, and creating in this life? If so, you might not be surprised to find out that you lived a stimulating past life. Having your birthday fall on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th suggests that you were an intellectual yet creative powerhouse in the last life. Your brainpower was your superpower. There was nothing you couldn’t imagine, and therefore, couldn’t create. It’s likely you left behind wonderful work that has greatly contributed to liberal arts education. English students might favor the novel you wrote in a past life, or artists could still be analyzing your sketches. If there’s an artist that resonates with you, you might be surprised to discover that that was you in another life.
4th, 13th, 22nd, and 31st
Whatever you built in another life may still stand today if your birthday is on the 4th, 13th, 23rd, or 31st. In another life, your greatest contribution was what you built. Depending on how long ago your past life was, you could have left behind a small hut you once resided in or a large fortress you helped build for your empire. You were once known for being a practical, steadfast individual who worked tirelessly to build security for yourself and others. Security would have come in the form of adding new additions to your community, improving your craft, and honing your tools. Remnants of old infrastructures and stray tools are still being found today. Seeing what’s left of your past life in history books and museums will take you right back.
5th, 14th, and 23rd
You were the change you wished to see in the world. Having your birthday fall on the 5th, 14th, or 23rd implies you were a dynamic force of nature in a past life. History may remember you as a revolutionary. If you weren’t spearheading a monumental movement, you still played an integral part. You may have felt strongly about a movement that spoke to your values. It may have resonated with your soul’s desire for freedom, innovation, and flexibility. Unlike others, you were brave to participate in such a movement. Your courage could have made you a valuable asset in a radical period. Don’t be surprised if the urge to fight for what’s right finds you in this life, too.

6th, 15th, and 24th
Is home and family a major theme in this lifetime? If so, it’s because this has carried over from your past life. Your birthdate–the 6th, 15th, or 24th–implies that your past life was largely concerned with your home life. It may mean a few things. It’s possible your home and family were immensely fulfilling. Love, support, and connection surrounded you. The opposite may have happened, which could cause you to prioritize home and family in the current lifetime. Additionally, you may have experienced displacement, diaspora, and movement. Your past life could have been unexpectedly nomadic if you were forced to relocate. It might be evident if you feel called to live somewhere now. Regardless, your past life would unconsciously influence you to regain control of your home and family in this life.
7th, 16th, and 25th
Your teachings have left a mark on this world if your birthdate is on the 7th, 16th, or 25th. Having one of these birthdates suggests that you led a scholarly past life. Now, this may not sound inherently interesting, but you could have been a well-known philosopher, scientist, or mathematician. In another life, you were known for your astuteness. Nothing escaped your careful eye. Your brain worked overtime attempting to answer some of life’s greatest mysteries, to improve your surrounding faculties, and to make sense of everything. You likely had a major breakthrough that has changed the way we live even now. Pay extra close attention when something piques your interest in class–this is your soul’s way of remembering your past life.
8th, 17th, and 26th
Insurmountable wealth found those born on the 8th, 17th, and 26th in another life. Unlike other birthdays, you likely had an abundant past life. If you weren’t royalty, you were certainly up there in the hierarchy. Your wealth may have been measured by the land you owned and the people you ruled. Having such a luxurious estate meant having access to dutiful servants, fresh food, and finery. Opulence surrounded you, so you wanted for nothing. However, you would have been tasked with sharing what you had. Generosity was your major karmic lesson in a past life, which you may still be learning in this lifetime if you consistently give to others. Hopefully, your soul has learned that giving is just as important as receiving.

9th, 18th, and 27th,
If you’re born on the 9th, 18th, or 27th, you might be able to unlock your past life all on their own. Your past life may come to you in your dreams. Music, movies, books, and museums will help you remember. Your intuitive skills have transcended lifetimes, which is why you’re an old soul who can recall memories and recognize soulmates. In another life, you were known for your psychic abilities. You might have been an oracle, a high priestess, or a witch. Whether you were spiritual or religious, you had a special connection with spirit. Some may have revered you; others may have feared you. No matter what happened in the past, give yourself grace as you find balance between the spiritual world and physical world in this lifetime.
