Sample Text from a Past Lives Report:
By Bernie Ashman Author/Astrologer

Introduction
Welcome to your Past Life report. Whereas the birthchart is a symbolic road map describing your current life, the Past Lives chart is a blueprint of your previous incarnations. The pages that follow will help shed some light on themes related to your past life instincts. First, let's talk about reincarnation which is the belief that the current incarnation (as depicted by our birthchart) is linked to the lives that we have previously led. This collection of past influences points to particular experiences you might encounter again so that you can further your growth and fully develop your creative potential. These past impressions go far in shaping many of our current thoughts and choices. There are certain gifts a person seems to possess right out of the womb! It's as though destiny or fate leads one to realize these attributes. Of course, we still have to show ambition and make the effort in order to keep our dreams alive. This report may give confirmation to talents that you already know you have or open your eyes to ones that you have yet to discover.
Our past lives are alive and well in our consciousness. This may already be apparent to you. But on the other hand, these experiences can lie beyond the threshold of our conscious mind's awareness. What is doing the remembering, if our mind isn't? Call it your soul, higher consciousness or whatever explanation feels right to you.
Have you ever heard about karma, that great law of cause and effect? An old timeless saying sums up the whole process: "You reap what you sew." There are actions and thoughts that defined us in other lives, or have guided us to where we are in the present. They don't really exert any control over us. We have freedom of choice. That's a strong message to remember when reading this report.
Also, don't panic if you read something that says you were not a perfect person. Nobody is in the current one! Use the report as a learning tool. The idea is to keep developing and evolving. It's balancing the cosmic rhythm of past and present that presents each of us with a challenge. Do we respond positively or negatively? With hope or doubt? Many of our tendencies are linked to previous incarnations. Certain patterns have likely been by our side over many lifetimes. As we grow and expand our awareness, it becomes very possible to step beyond the trappings of past life baggage.
No doubt you will read various sections that seem to contradict each other. Each could be true about you. It's important to realize that many different dimensions of ourselves live within us. Each of us is composed of memories from so many past lives, combined with an assortment of ways we have learned to deal with reality in this life, that make us complex beings. See which descriptions ring true to you as you read through the following pages. You will notice some traits described have a repeating theme.

The Passport
In this section are the first, middle and last names of your Past Lives astrological identity, the Sun, Moon, and Past Lives Ascendant. Each of these three building blocks will be discussed as to how they actively shaped many of your former lives. But before you meet these three key players, you will start your tour through memory lane with the North Node of the Moon. The North Node contains a special message about what was your overall life purpose. It was a constant rhythm pulsating in your consciousness to keep you on target toward your true purposes. It was a celestial compass trying to guide you to walk your talk with greater clarity. So sit back, and enjoy reading your past lives primer.

Node in Aquarius
You had a history of being an individualist. One of your key impulses was experimenting with new ideas. Your soul was normally exhilarated about reincarnating, anticipating the surprises with enthusiasm. The archetypal theme for your destiny was to be an innovator. A crucial lesson was to avoid being different just to be different. Maintaining a clear sense of direction with purposeful actions was a better way to conduct business. Keeping a detached mental objectivity helped you clarify your decisions.
When you let your heart speak rather than your intellect, people found you more approachable. Toning down your aloofness in favor of becoming more personal helped you make important social connections. A trickster was looking for too much attention, searching desperately for acceptance. It led to great uncertainty, and letting others dictate too much of the action. Then again, you could go to the other extreme, becoming too overpowering and demanding. Finding a way to balance being a free spirit and fitting into someone else's kingdom was a key to stability. You needed to be your own person, choosing to reinvent yourself now and then. Electricity was ignited when venturing out beyond your comfort zones and testing the waters that pointed to new creative directions. Also, when you fell in love with a person or other heartfelt pursuits, the magic took over.

What types of activities did you participate in that furthered your soul growth? Delving into the mysteries of life with a detective-like presence was a preoccupation. You weren't afraid to walk along the narrow ledges, if that's where the intensity could be found. If you became too bogged down in hoarding what you saved, life had a way of disrupting your pleasure. A common concern was "how can I reach full empowerment?" When you followed your passion to achieve wealth or dynamic relationships with common sense you managed to stay out of karma's way. What sorts of experiences motivated you? There was being a shrewd businessperson. Negotiation savvy adorned you. Plumbing to the depths of your main interests came naturally. Even mysticism called to you. Your energy levels peaked when finding either the lover or profession of your most cherished dream .If you became too possessive or jealous, you created more trouble than it was worth. When you assumed the appropriate power it kept you on track as much as compulsively overpowering others caused endless trouble. Somewhere always hiding in the caverns of your memory banks was a survival instinct mixed with a tinge of a longing to keep life very simple. When using this wisely and pragmatically, life was colored with a rich array of abundant experiences.

Sun: Creativity, Ego, Self-expression
Sun in Taurus:
The sign of Taurus the bull lighted the mid spring astrological skies at your birth into this life. Let's explore what significance this had in regard to your past lives. In traditional astrology the keyword phrase for Taurus is "I desire". Another one is "I have". You had a pattern related to ownership and strong drives to taste what the world was serving.
Archetypes for Taurus include the peacemaker, nature lover and economizer. More than likely you had a healthy fear of poverty. This drove you in past lives to steadily develop knowledge that was marketable. A pragmatic attitude usually surfaced in key areas of your lives. Sooner or later you realized the value of stability. It's when you grew too attached to having particular outcomes that life got murky.
The cosmic principle at work through many of your past incarnations was to depend heavily on what you could see and touch. You found ego strength or self-confidence through imposing your will power on what you wanted. Appreciating beauty in all of its forms was a way of life. A steady determination defined you. Sometimes in past lives you became inert. This was due to either dulled senses, or events knocked the wind out of you. A test was deepening your intuitive eye. Chances are you were successful in business. You came into this life solarized through a sign promoting persistence. An intense tendency to have things on your own terms was a theme that ran throughout your incarnations and was a key to your self-mastery. It was when you put forth a dynamo of creative enthusiasm that this energy was a true champion!

Sun in 5th house
You had solar power that soared through you with great force in previous lives. Being in the spotlight was what you desired. Your ego got bruised easily if not receiving enough attention. You were as dramatic as you were fiery. A drive to promote came as naturally as snow falling on top of the Rocky Mountains in mid winter. Your creative vitality was ready to reload on a moment's notice. Being in love did arouse your energy. Being a follower wasn't as easy as striving to be a leader. You needed lots of elbowroom to work. A take control type you were. You were extremely proud of your creations. Getting too attached to offspring or creations happened regularly. Directing others to be successful was part of your history.
If there was a challenge it was in two separate camps. One was being too bossy. The other was a lack of confidence. In most lives you vacillated between the two. When you found the right roles, look out! You were ready to shoot a full throttle to make up for lost time. The actor and director lived brightly through you. When you moved with self-assuredness, others were ready to follow. However, if you took too big of a risk or showed great arrogance, you sometimes looked back and realized you were alone. Your self-expression burst onto the scene loudly when your ability was recognized. You only needed to fall in love with what you liked doing to ensure the wealth you desired. Taking chances defined you. The world responded positively when you moved without infringing on the rights of others, but with no applause when you ignored those you loved. You found fulfillment in being a hero for those believing in you, and in sharing your gifts with those appreciating them.

Moon: Sense of Security, Roots, Feelings
Moon in Virgo:
You were lunarized at birth through the sign of Virgo. What does this say about your past life tendencies? An instinctual work drive has followed you from one incarnation to another. The family ancestries in past lives were linked by a dedication to excellence along with a tendency to worry.
Your inner landscapes were ... ... ...
