How much do our previous incarnations affect our current one?

[Adonai One]

Could the positively-polarized entity in one incarnation easily turn negatively-polarized in the next incarnation? Or is there a metaphysical predisposition that makes us more likely to a lean a certain way every incarnation? Are our personalities likely to be similar from life-to-life? If so, where does such an effect come from?

Do our environments and choices in each life solely shape us? Or is there a likely influence from the past in each incarnation? How does this influence exactly work?

you higher self makes plans together with you before your born so that you dont veer off course from what you desire to do in that overview state. if your positively oriented between incarnations u would build into your future incarnation safety valves that get triggered when you start polarising too far negative. A good example of this is Franklin Roosevelt in the Ra material.

35.1 ...
This entity had some difficulty with continued green-ray activity due to the excessive energy which was put into the activities regarding other-selves in the distortion towards acquiring power. This was to have its toll upon the physical vehicle, as you may call it. The limitation of the non-movement of a portion of the physical vehicle opened once again, for this entity, the opportunity for concentration upon the more, shall we say, universal or idealistic aspects of power; that is, the non-abusive use of power. Thus at the outset of a bellicose action this entity had lost some positive polarity due to excessive use of the orange- and yellow-ray energies at the expense of green- and blue-ray energies, then had regained the polarity due to the catalytic effects of a painful limitation upon the physical complex.

35.3
Questioner: Secondly, did Franklin place the limitation on his physical body himself?
Ra: I am Ra. This is partially correct. The basic guidelines for the lessons and purposes of incarnation had been carefully set forth before incarnation by the mind/body/spirit complex totality. If the one known as Franklin had avoided the excessive enjoyment of or attachment to the competitiveness which may be seen to be inherent in the processes of its occupation, this entity would not have had the limitation.

However, the desire to serve and to grow was strong in this programming and when the opportunities began to cease due to these distortions towards love of power the entity’s limiting factor was activated.

Still, could an entity defy all programming and set a path all his own disregarding his higher-self? Is a programmed incarnation another limitation meant to be tested?

Could the positively-polarized entity in one incarnation easily turn negatively-polarized in the next incarnation?

There is always this possibility...however, polarization implies consciousness or "awakeness" or "awareness". The more polarized you are, the more conscious you are, so if polarity is switched during an incarnation it is likely not to be a willy nilly random choice, but a very deliberate change in orientation.

Also, everybody wobbles on and off the path occasionally, from life to life. Your violet ray emanation or overall expression of self-hood is a signature from more than just one life. You could, potentially, be very negatively polarized in one life, and your "overall" violet ray polarity could still be positively polarized from your other positive lives.

Or is there a metaphysical predisposition that makes us more likely to a lean a certain way every incarnation?

In the same way that there are genetic predispositions, there are spiritual complex predispositions. You could probably consider that a metaphysical predisposition. The spiritual body and mental body are just as "real" and influential as the physical body.

Are our personalities likely to be similar from life-to-life? If so, where does such an effect come from?

Again, just as the body has various genetic predispositions, there are mental predispositions, and spiritual predispositions. The mind, and spirit, of course, do not die with the body, so those dispositions carry over from life to life to some extent.

Do our environments and choices in each life solely shape us?

No. They do play a part, but also consider that the environment, and body that you incarnate in are also a reflection of your choice, or expression, as a soul. In the same way that John Doe wears leather because it expresses his personality, we choose lives, to some extent, that "reflect" our essential character as a soul personality.

Or is there a likely influence from the past in each incarnation?

We are influenced by the past, present, *AND* future. From a spiritual standpoint, you would do well to just consider all three of these influences as "present".

How does this influence exactly work?

The conditioning and modulation of consciousness. In other words, distortion.

Good questions.

You mean like those two 5d wanderers that accidentally polarised into the negative on venus? sure its possible. I get the feeling that wanderers who dont have much experience with the planet they are incarnating into make the mistake of not building in these safety mechanism and trusting in their positivity.

The programmed limitation is just more catalyst designed to challenge your desire. If you still persisted in behaviour of the opposite polarity despite the limitation then u could switch your polarity. negative wanderers fear the forgetting for this exact reason.

[Adonai One]

So, at the very least, our incarnations are a direct manifestation of our spirits and we are our choices. We never stop being who we are and who we will become.

Thanks all of you.
