“it’s quite common for the Old Soul to experience what many people would refer to as “new age phenomena.” These vast and varied experiences range from sensations as commonplace as experiencing vivid and repeated déjà vu to other sensations as complex as precognition – the foreseeing of an event or series of events in a dream which later transpire in real life.”

“As with everything, the Old Soul approaches family with a casual, if not detached, attitude. “They can do their thing while I do mine,” is the attitude usually held towards family drama, which the Old Soul is not usually one to take part in. Somehow always on the outskirts quietly looking in, the Old Soul cares about his or her family but does so without becoming too attached to them or their problems. This is not to say that the Old Soul doesn't try to help at all. If anything, they gladly play the part of counselor or adviser to their family members in times of strife.”

“For instance, in one case documented by researcher Carol Bowman in her book Children's Past Lives, an 18-month-old little girl named Elspeth showed clear signs of having “been here before.” Elspeth, who had never previously spoken a complete sentence, spoke up to her mother one evening as she was being bathed.”
