SECTION TWO
LIFE IN NON-HUMAN BODIES
CHAPTER FOUR
DIFFERENT LIFEFORMS
Animals and plants are not the only unfamiliar forms the soul or spirit can inhabit. I have had many clients that describe life in forms that are definitely not the traditional human. Some defy the imagination, yet the client feels comfortable inhabiting them, as though it is not illogical.

LAND OF THE GIANTS
Jack saw himself as a very tall man named Larce with long blonde hair. His head came to half the height of the tree he was standing by. He was dressed in brown canvas pants and a shirt with puffy sleeves, with leather straps over his shoulders to hold the pants. He was wearing sandals with soles made of bark, and a sheath with a sword on his back. The sword was used for protection against the people that were even larger than him. He could smell bread baking from a small cottage in the distance. There are little people that live there. They cant fend for themselves. He was bringing them a deer that he was holding in his hand, and flour. Theres a young woman, and I see two small girls and a baby. I am so much larger than them, but I feel a love towards these small people. To illustrate how much bigger he was, he said the womans head came only to his waist. There were villages of these small people, and they were in danger from beings who were larger than him. He felt an obligation to protect them. He did not live in their villages, but on the nearby mountain. I can see and overlook ... everything. I can overlook the valley and see if theres anything that goes wrong. He was only doing it because of a love for these small people.
It was cold in this area and people often wore fur. He lived in a structure made of rocks with his family: parents, brothers, sisters who he also took care of. The larger people lived on an island off the coast of the big water. They came in the spring and fall in their big iron boats. These bigger people lived in darkness in large castles made of huge stones with big log doors. They were never satisfied and wanted what everyone else had. They killed everything, just to kill. They had mechanical things: guns that shot fire; their ships looked like they flew as they came across the water with no sails. He described them as having a face like a bulldog; lower extruding jaw with two teeth over the upper lip, a big hump on the back and very little hair. They walked slumped over. He knew what they looked like, because he wounded some of them in a battle and once in the water. He insisted he did not kill, but defended himself.
D: These indeed sound like strange people. Does anyone know where they came from?
J: They originally came from a place that was red. Right now, thats all I see. Like a planet with red rock.
D: I wondered if your people had stories about them.
J: Stranded. They couldnt go back to where they came from. No atmosphere. They had no way to exist where they came from. They had to leave that place.
I moved him forward to an important day. The little people were having a wedding celebration. His family was there also. They had not had problems with the strange people for a long time. Maybe they were dying out. He said it was bad for the species, but good for him and his people.
I then moved him to the last day of his life. He was lying on a bed in his house. The body was not old. He had continued to grow larger and had become too big. It was causing chest pain, weakness from heaviness, breathing, pain in the ankles and feet, and the lower back. He said you can be too big or too small. The strange people never came back. When he went to the island to check on them, he saw only bones. All of their things were as they left them.
The little woman from the cottage was with him when he died. After his death, his body was put in a boat, and was burned as it floated out to sea. They did this with anyone with any kind of disease. The lesson of that life was respect. Respect yourself as well as your own enemy. And be able to love anything or anyone, whether theyre large or whether theyre small. Also caution. Awareness. Listen, look, watch. He felt he had learned these lessons.
I then called the subconscious forth to answer questions.
J: Jack had to see this life to know the love that he could not have. He is able to share that love with her in his lifetime now in 2004. She is his present wife. She was the little woman.
D: Then theyve come back together. (Yes) Thats important because now theyre the same size, arent they?
J: Pretty close. The love was impossible in the other life, and this caused him much despair. He could only be with her as a friend.
I wanted the subconscious to explain the strange undertones of that life. Everything Jack has is strange. Everything tends to be different, because he likes different. He does not like the normal. During all his lives, hes always been able to see what other people cant see. Hes always been different.
D: But that is not a bad thing. It just takes adjusting. (Yes) In that life, he was a large person and he kept growing. Can you tell me something about his people?
J: His group was from another planet. They were seeded here on Earth.
D: What country was this?
J: Cold country. Viking. The northern part. Way back in history.
D: Would the little people be considered normal size today?
J: Five foot seven. Some smaller. His group was between nine and ten feet tall. They were seeded from another planet.
D: So they were really too tall for this planet, werent they?
J: Yes. Thats why they were put in the north, to be away from the others. The smaller people would be scared of them. They were put there to see if they would survive.
D: Why did he keep growing?
J: Genetic defect.
D: So when they were seeded, they had problems. (Yes) Did that group survive into our time?
J: Yes. Theyre not as large.
D: So some of the large people on Earth today are descendants from that seeding? (Yes) I would have thought they would die out. (No) What about the ones who were on the island, who were even larger?
J: They came from somewhere else. A mistake from beyond. They werent supposed to be here. They were supposed to have been sent somewhere else.
D: Why did they end up here?
J: Miscalculations on their part.
D: He said they were stranded. (Yes) Something about a red planet?
J: Red planet. (Surprised) Not Mars. It had bad atmosphere. They had to leave because they couldnt breathe.
D: So they miscalculated and ended up on that island. (Yes) But it sounded like they couldnt reproduce.
J: No, all male. That was why they died out eventually. They were very violent. Nothing humorous about them. Except, they were ugly.
D: So it was probably better that they were isolated on that island. (Yes) What about their castles? Did any of that survive to our time?
J: Under the mud. Known into our time in 2004, would be found around Iceland. Artifacts will be found eventually. They wont understand.
D: And those ships sounded rather like spaceships.
J: Yes, under the mud.
D: Will they be found ?
J: Possible.
So maybe the stories and fairy tales we have heard all our lives are not fiction after all. I have always believed that most stories and legends have some basis in fact. But I also know that down through time, mankind has taken these legends and added to and taken away, so it is difficult to know what the original was. When I was in Norway, I visited some museums in Oslo. I saw the old paintings depicting the stories of giants, trolls, ogres and strange creatures. Jacks subconscious said they were living in the North. Maybe these stories carry memories of these creatures that dwelled on the Earth long ago. This might also explain some of the people living on Earth now that are very tall. Maybe they carry genes of these gentle giants.
