I have remembered one of the names of Imladris, that was used at the time, but I recieved images from the words, (though I do not rightly remember them): It was "The Land of Singing Water" Dorlinnen or Linnendor though I think it is closer to the first one, I have a feeling this may be incomplete in the elvish, but in elvish it is something close to that.

I have a whole bunch of memory of my life as Artanaro Gil-Galad, which I may put up when I have organized it into a readable format, some of the time before Annatar came to the Elves , much of it during the time of Annatar, and many of the Last Alliance... It is confusing because much of the way things happend does not conform to the timeline that Tolkien wrote up, and it has been shown to be quite inaccurate, but after all , better than nothing, or he may have misinterpreted certain events Example : Foundation of Imladris, it was founded some 60 or more years before 1697 the date Tolkien gives, but it was around the time of the fall of Ost-in-Edhil that it became a place of refuge for the survivors of that battle, so because this was a thing of major historical significance, Tolkien may have assumed that it was founded at that time, but as you may know they were being chased by the forces of Sauron which would make it very difficult to found anything. It existed before this and Elrond called upon the power of Ulmo and unleashed the fury of the Bruinen, much as he did in the War of the Ring.. There is alot more to these memories which I will post sometime in the future.. Wow I have rambled on and on ..... Thank you for listening Artanaro

Here is one interesting issue in past life workings that I have heard of : Two people who share memories of the same person, usually a famous person. Usually the subjects have no knowledge of the other person with the same memories. A possibility is that one is role-playing the other isnt, but that does not explain the case in which two people being very sincere, experience memories of the same person. Who is telling the truth and who is lying ? Does it matter? Any thoughts on this? So far I have not encountered this phenomenon among those with Middle earth memories, but eventually we might.. How could this happen? Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas, theories, etc. ? I would love to hear your thoughts, I am really undecided myself on this matter.

Hi Artanaro. Wow! You've had a real wave haven't you?! Congratulations, hon. I've stopped deliberately working on my memories of Faramir for the time being. With all of the holidays & such, I don't feel like dealing with such stressful memories right now. Though that doesn't prevent spontaneous recalls. ~sigh~ As for the subject of two, or more, people remembering the same life...I think that this may be able to happen. Perhaps when we re-incarnate we mostly take the parts from the previous life that will be important to us later? That being the case, maybe the further one gets from a given lifetime the more people there are who could have "spawned" from it. Maybe that is why multiple people remember different aspects from a "shared lifetime". That probably wasn't very clear. I'm having trouble putting my thoughts on this into words. Sincerely, Laurasia

Wow artanaro..you must have been going insane with all of that hitting you at once! I am happy for you though. As for me, I remember bits and pieces..but nothing like the last major event that I remembered.
Also I agree with Laurasia..in all her confusion I understood what she was saying. I think that through the aeons of time, certain peoples paths "cross", thereby leaving stains on the soul. So, if someone "remembers" being a famous person, they may share some of the same memories as the said person because.. a) they could have experienced it with the famous person, thereby they would share the same memories of said event. or b)the person in question could have been TOLD an oration of what happened in said event..thereby, sharing similar memories.
I hope that I am making sense. What it all comes down to I think, is that if two people are very close in a past incarnation..things get muddled through the years. So, when they carnate in this life, they may even mistake themselves for each other.

All of this didnt happen at once...It comes in flashes and pieces and I record them all...And usually the pieces are very random and chaotic, so I leave them for awhile....Then later on, when I am thinking of and doing something completely unrelated I get a flash of inspiration and I begin to piece everything together more concretely. Sometimes I make the wrong connections, but this gets corrected in time...I try to rely on my intuition in these matters. As for the theories, I think you guys are onto something...I will reflect on the matter and take what you said into consideration, perhaps I will be able to add my thoughts when I process everything and when I meditate upon the matter. As for the names of Imladris Linnendor was a name used by those who experienced that place through which the Bruinen flows. It is an informal name used before construction of the refuge began. Dor Linnath Sirioll is one that me and some others who played around with some Elvish have come up with and it definitely is a possiblity..I know this in my heart. I will meditate upon this as well. There is alot of meditation for me to do it seems. Namarie Artanaro

Thank you for sharing with us luv. *hugs* I know how painful past-life memories can be...to hold these inside of you is never healthy. Therefore, I am glad that you are able to talk about it with us here.

By all means Rowan, share your thoughts. It will only help to facilitate more rememberances, as you won't be suppressing the thoughts anymore. And have no fear of nastiness from other members. Healthy scepticism is one thing, but nastiness I would never tolerate. ~hugs~

wow , almost a year later Heres an update of sorts . Well , after that hugely emotional time , I settled back into ordinary life , but included almost continual research both inside and outside myself. I have met a heap of people from all walks of life with anything from a full blown belief in reincarnation as an elven soul , to a passing interest, encountered the term Otherkin (cringes) , joined a LOT of sites , forums , groups , and basically gotten a feel for how other people deal with it . spoken to people who think as i do and are making a difference in the world , fulfilling their dharma/ karmic cycles and its been a brilliantly enlightening journey . All my family and friends now know of my beliefs and it hasnt changed a thing. I have had my kids names tattoo'd in Elvish as a symbol of my awakening , and it just keeps getting better . On the whole my life has been enhanced by the knowledge of what I am , have always been without realising there was a label for it My path as an elf integrates perfectly with my moral , religious , spiritual and social beliefs. In trying to locate the timeframe for the battle i recall dying in ,i was led to my own Irish mythology and a race called the Tuatha De Danann , known as Elventype beings. Exactly what they are / were is a topic of debate , for example they have been described as gods/ elves/ fae/ demigods/ higher beings/ skilled magically humans etc but firmly therin I identified. They are exactly the way I imagine myself to have looked, behaved and lived. The name struck a chord and I was home . Continuing on , I find that theres a lot of speculation that the elves of middle earth and the Tuatha are the same race or sub race of each other . There are 100's of articles about this .I have a huge affinity to both , just narrowing down the timeframe is the problem . Im sort of going with the assumption that I'll know it when i see it and happy enough with that. Add to this , many of you know of my involvement with opposing the building of a motorway near our sacred hill Of Tara , residence of the High Kings of ireland and the spiritual home of the Tuatha de Danaan , so i have the honour of aiding in this campaign . (I was on the news Yay!!) It all ties together in my head , even if it dosn't translate well into text . Suffice to say , I know who I am ( mostly), i know what i am (almost) ,I know why I'm here and it all makes sense. I just wanted to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for being there and keeping an open mind and all your support so far. I'll post a thread about the similarities tomorrow that might explain more if i havn't made much sense. also a few bits and pieces I have come across that helped me , that tie in with Middle Earth.

I am so glad that you have had such an enlightening year, love. It is wonderful that you have achieved such awareness of your true self. ~hugs~ As far as the time frame/geographic specifics go, I can only offer my own thoughts on the matter.... I have come to believe that Middle-Earth (& possibly the world in which the Tuatha de Danann ruled) were actually past incarnations of our world itself. Just as we all have past incarnations, so does the world/universe itself. I believe that these "other worlds" that we are having recollections from are from those previous worldly incarnations. There is also a theory that worlds such as Middle-Earth were actually incarnations within a neighboring dimension to our own current one.

All right this is a bit embarassing to post, but it is also a fact that has helped me to become a bit more enlightened in regards to myself. It's a situation that does have a tendency to happen while doing pastlife work though. After quite a long time of having a horrible block in working through my lifetime as Faramir, I have come to the realization that this is due to the fact that I was not actually Faramir during my lifetime in Middle-Earth. I was a man that was very close to Faramir, had a strong connection with him, & knew a great deal about him. He confided in me quite often about matters within his life & mind - which caused me to be extremely empathetic in regards to him & his life. This is why I have been able to "remember" very personal feelings of his...the closeness that we did share. The thought that I may have identified myself incorrectly began to creep into my mind after such a long time of having these "blocks" (which I very rarely have when working with any of my other pastlives). Whenever I would do workings I would always get the same recollections about Faramirs' life, even when trying to avoid that very thing from happening. I decided to do a "spitiual consultation" with Lady Galadriel & Mithrandir (my spirit guide). As riddle-filled as ever, it took a while to realize that he was indeed pointing me towards the life of another Man. The good news is that, all of his games aside, Mithrandir helped me to realize that I was incorrect with the thought that I had been Faramir. Close, but not right. Now that I've connected with the correct life things are coming along much easier, thankfully. Heck of a boo-boo, considering Faramirs' station, but hey it happens sometimes when two people are that close. Sincerely, Laurasia

*hugs* Do not feel bad luv...it is very, very common for that to happen. Remember that I myself once had a boo-boo. What I uncovered in my opinion was a much more greater hidden truth..but heck, you know the dynamics of it. Anyways, you were brave for posting it here.
