What does it mean when we meet someone new that we feel we knew before?.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
“I would like to ask about a sense of familiarity, a sense of knowing a person whom you have not previously known.
I recently met someone briefly with whom I felt this way and I’m trying to understand it.
This person will be moving away shortly so I am confused as to what purpose there was for me to have met this person for such a short time when it is causing me sadness that I won’t be able to know them any longer.
I’m pregnant so there’s the initial excuse that everyone gives which is that it’s just the hormones.
This doesn’t seem right to me though, since it’s going much deeper than just a simple hormonal mood swing.
However, I’ve also suffered the loss of a loved one within the last few months so I don’t know if it’s displaced grief or what at this point.
I have had this type of feeling / experience before, similar to when you travel somewhere new and you feel like you’ve been there before or it just feels like home.
This certainly does not happen with every human or animal I meet but it has happened a number of times and I would be very appreciative of any insights you have.”
Response:
That sense of familiarity with someone you do not have any previous history with that you can remember, is an experience that I think many people can relate to.
Even without being pregnant or having recently suffered the loss of a loved one, when you connect with another person who elicits deep memories of intimacy and closeness, it will often bring up those feelings of familiarity.
If those feelings remind you of a time that you still long for or a situation that was left unresolved, then it only stands to reason that you will feel sad at the prospect of this person now moving away.
If that sadness does not resolve on its own easily, then you might want to explore it a little more to help get to the source so you can release it completely.
Love,
Deepak
