Can we experience our past lives? Before you find an answer to this question, you may want to know whether people really have a previous life. Most of us who have been led and educated by the world of science or the logical rationalism are not inclined to believe in this preposition.
I, as a saju master, am asked by many clients whether they can read their past lives by saju. Some may and others may not. It can be read by the heaven and earth pillar of one’s birth year.
See how your saju is composed of. The four pillars of destiny are built by your birth year, month, day and hour, from your right to left. Then the process of life path is translated accordingly, form your birth year pillar to birth hour pillar. So the birth year pillar implies a certain clue to initiate this life. For some people, the year pillar may represent their early childhood while it illustrates their before life for others.
When we interpreted that one was born to a family of nobility or that of a scholar, for example, it was read by the situation of one’s year pillar. It is called the theory of ``palace’’ as shown in the picture below. We define each pillar as ``palace of ancestor,’’ ``palace of parents,’’ ``palace of marriage’’ and ``pallace of children.’’
Although, the stories are hardly portrayed by the couple of letters or their symbolic colors only, a dramatic story can be narrated by your dream if there is a certain reason to show. One of my foreign student who sincerely studied saju told me a story of his recent dream in Spain.
It appeared in his dream repeatedly before his baby boy was born. Owing to its lucidness he couldn’t dispel the afterimage for a long time. One day, he happened to see the same place as shown in his dream at a documentary film, which was a small western coastal district in England. Obviously he has never been there before. He decided to visit the place by himself.
To make a long story short, upon visiting it, he was told a legendary story of the town and realized by instinct that he had been the head of the clan of that ancient village. They had had a fatal invasion by a gigantic pirate and in order to protect his tribe, he had decided to departing into the sea letting his tribe not know of such an invasion.
Later on, when he returned to his country, he realized that the invasion was actually from the land and without his protection his tribe was annihilated.
It was like a latent trauma spiritually dominating all through the life. Now that his baby was going to be added to his family, the subconscious was trying to relieve the long lasting suppression from his past life.
