The Perks and Pitfalls of Being an Old Soul
I have to say, these last few months have been pretty amazing. I married my soulmate, Alexa, went on an amazing honeymoon, I’ve got a brand-new book coming out, and I’ve been back on the road hosting LIVE events all around the country. I’ve even done shows in Las Vegas, which was a dream of mine for years. But my life wasn’t always like this. If you’d told me I’d be on stage in Las Vegas when I was in high school, well…I’m not sure I would have believed you!
When You’re an Old Soul in High School
Everyone asks me, is there a hell? Yes, it’s right here on earth and it’s also known as High School! To say that my high school years were difficult is an understatement.
People assume that the fact that I speak to dead people was the reason I didn’t fit in with the high school crowd, but that wasn’t it. For the most of that time I didn’t let anyone know about that side of my life- I had pushed it away to the point that I had almost forgotten that I had psychic abilities. But what WAS an issue is that I was an “old soul” trying to connect with a bunch of kids who were basically obsessed with sports and partying.
How Heavy is Your Baggage?
Growing up, my mom and grandma always said I was an old soul, but I didn’t really get what that meant. I asked my mom once, and she said it was because I wasn’t like other kids. I was very sensitive and tuned in to the feelings of other people – even strangers, and she felt like I was “born knowing things.”
That’s pretty much the definition of an old soul. If you believe that we’re all energy, and part of a universal life source, then an old soul is connected to that wisdom on a deeper level (and from an earlier age) during their lifetime.
New souls enter the world to experience things for the first time. It’s like they’re traveling through life with an empty suitcase and filling it up as they go along. Everything feels new to them, and their journey is all about learning lessons. An old soul comes into this life with heavier baggage – filled with karma and memories – so they approach things from a whole different perspective. Because of this perspective, they have a hard time relating to the things that their peers care about so desperately.
How to Know if You’re an Old Soul
If you, or someone you know is having the kind of experience at school or work that I did back in High School, maybe their “old soul” is the reason. If you’re wondering if you, or someone you love, is an old soul, here are some characteristics to look for:
- You feel like an outsider. Like I said, old souls are approaching life from a different angle than other people, and their unique perspective makes It hard for others to relate to them. If they’re in an environment where everyone is trying hard to fit in, sensitive old souls can be left out of things, or become the target of bullying.
- You know right away when you’ve found a kindred spirit. On the flip side, when you meet a like-minded person (another old soul) you really click. And that’s an amazing feeling.
- You feel connected to everyone – you’re sensitive to animals, strangers, plants, and flowers. Your empathy can be a burden or a blessing. You might cry when you watch the news, but you also understand people. When you find people you can trust, it’s easy for you to get close.
- You’re more self-aware than most people. “Old souls” tend to look inward and examine their behavior and feelings. This pays off, because they recognize when they hurt others, or make a choice that doesn’t serve them.
- You see the big picture. Because an old soul is tapped into universal energy, they tend to understand things on a different level. They can’t just focus on how something impacts them without also seeing the impact of others, their neighborhood, and the planet as a whole.
- Finally, you have a gift that you can’t really explain. You sit down at the piano and can play by ear. You have an eye for color and design that comes naturally. Or maybe you can talk to dead people.
Living Your Best Life as an Old Soul
If you checked a lot of these boxes, congratulations! You CAN thrive as an old soul in a world full of newbies if remember these simple tips.
- Find your tribe and connect with them often. Everyone is not going to totally “get you” but it’s critical to have other like-minded people that you can spend time with to recharge and relax.
- Do meaningful work. I always knew I wanted to help people, first as an emergency medical technician (EMT), and then as a medium. When I recognized my gift, it was like my whole life lit up. I was in the right place, and that resonated down to my soul.
- Enjoy life. Don’t let that heavy baggage weigh you down! Feed your “old soul” with music, art, spending time in nature, good food, good friends, and loving pets.
I can hardly express how grateful I am to be spending my time doing work that’s fulfilling and that has such a healing effect on other people. I feel like I’m doing exactly what I was put on this earth to do – and that makes my “old soul” very happy!
Pre-Order ‘ We Never Die: Secrets of the Afterlife
Psychic medium Matt Fraser, the author of When Heaven Calls, is back with a book that answers the question everyone wants to know the answer to: “What happens after death?” Although the answer might seem complicated, it’s actually pretty simple: We never die.
Drawing from his personal experiences as America’s top psychic medium and the thousands of conversations he’s had with those in spirit, Matt will pull back the curtain on life’s hidden question. He’ll dive into what happens when we cross over, explore the beautiful realities of heaven and eternal life, the guardian angels who keep us safe on earth (including our pets), and much more. He’ll also explain how we can tune into our own inner psychic medium and better recognize the signs and messages our loved ones send us from heaven. As Matt explains, “We all have our own ‘phone line’ to communicate with heaven. All we have to do is figure out how to use it.”

Hey Matt. Thank-You for this blog, it is very helpful.
I believe I am an “Old Soul’ as well. I am Empath. I really “feel” things. I used to feel like an outsider in Hugh School and at parties in My Young adulthood. Still do in certain situations but at 60 years old I have learned which gatherings and situations to avoid. Actually I no longer seem to attract those situations. I am “Young at Heart”, and I certainly do not feel 60 years old, I do have an “Old Soul”…figure that one out lol. I try very hard to live life with a Positive attitude. Since My Husband passed 11 months ago I have been up against soo many challenges but My connection with Myself and His Spirit has deepened and given Me strength. My “Old Soul” is definitely a Positive in My life now.
Blessings to you and the transition of your husband. He’s right there with you.
I have same feelings.
Hi Matt.Thank you for the message and info.we really appreciate all you do and help you give not just for us but also for everyone.
It is amazing for to come into your path and we believe it was destined
We realy appreciate you both.

I found you on face book and have followed you ever since i love the work you do xx..I read what you have written and i giggle to myself as my sister and i speak to each other with the same understanding as yourself we call it ” our lingo” and we are able to break things down so that others can understand fully.. its almost like you say like minded people will resignate with our dialect so to speak and fit right in where as so many others have no idea what we are on about. I could say so much about the aroha i have for the mahi you do thank u for sharing your gift with the world
Dearest Matt, on two separate occasions I have had two different people enter my room and they have stood dead in their tracks. Both, neither whom I had ever met, blurted out exactly the same thing. “Whoa!! you have the Golden Aura, you are a very old soul, this is your last time round”. Reading from your own experiences, at school etc. they are a mirror image my exact experience. I absolutely detested school. I remember at the age of five in grade 1, the morning of my second ever day at school, telling my Mother. I am not going back. I too was bullied incessantly. I have only ever really engaged with those younger, or older of me, not of people my own age. I was made a College Prefect, I had compassion for the younger children, not punishing, or bullying and even organising them extra tutoring and getting them involved in social activities to bolster their confidence. The other Prefects even bullied me for that.That carried on into my Business life in Airline and Hotel Management. I have for many years now simply been known as “Mamma Kent”, even in my recent two years in Hospital and now the Residential Care Facility. Both my parents passed away within five weeks of each other while I was in Hospital, I never got to say goodbye as I was too Ill. I miss them terribly. I have been a committed Christian all my life, converting to become a Catholic about 15 years ago. The church and the Bible state that it’s against going to mediums, but I know that you are more like a Christian Representative from Heaven, a place I nearly got to on one of the times my heart stopped during Covid which I caught while I was an inpatient. Someone who needs no introduction, appeared from a cloud and told me “You are frail of body, yet good of heart and mind, I need you to carry on for a little while longer, I ask you to start a new Ministry”. By the time I re entered my ailing body, I was alone. The doctors were half way through completing my Death Certificate. They explained in shock, “But you were dead” Knowing my experience would not be believed I just quietly smiled and replied, “Yes, sorry about that, but I just got a bit held up”. I started my Ministry as soon as I was discharged from the ICU, “Catholic Ministry Online”. The Ministry is going well, my body isn’t. I am certainly not afraid of dying and I pray that when I do, my Ministry will continue. I have been with you for a group reading in January, hoping my parents, who despite all my efforts have not sent me any signs would come through. They didn’t. I didn’t get to speak with you. I will see you again in May for another group reading. I love your work, you are a very special person. I would love to meet you in person, but I am from New Zealand but I’m now in Melbourne, Australia , so I don’t see that happening. Congratulations on Your Wedding and now looking forward to becoming a father. My Love and Blessings to You and Alexa. Kent ✝️
Hi Matt
Greetings from Australia Down Under.
I relate ver much to your blog, thank you.
My younger life was filled with puzzling happenings which sent me on a serious journey of Lifetime learning …
I came out of my body when I was 7 years old and saw my own light/energy body. I came out again during the night in my late 20s and floated above Mum and Dad’s bed while my Dad’s spirit told me he was going to leave this earth and said there’s nothing more he can do for my mum … he passed over the next day unexpectedly with a heart attack and cerebral haemmhorage.
People have always been mysteriously drawn to me when they needed answers or help which I always recognise as a sacred duty and do my best to help. Like yourself, I wanted to do something to help and was a volunteer ambulance first aider for 3 years prior to being a nurse for 22 years. I’m now 70 but continue to work in a Pathology lab for a couple of days a week. Occasionally I “hear” a voice in my head which tells me helpful things and which I appreciate. I’m working on “tuning in” to this voice as I feel it may be able to help other people. I’ve had unrelated people insist that I’m “ancient” and had one person insist that I’m a teacher even though I told them I’m not. They appeared very puzzled when I said I’m not (and even slightly offended, which puzzled me!).
I love to watch you reading people … it makes me very happy. Congratulations on your marriage and on the announcement of your first baby-to-be . Love and best wishes from Angie xx
Thank you! This is sooooooo me!
Just confirms all…
Wish you could come down to south Florida!

Thank you Matt, everything in my life makes so much sense because the way you explain everything. I can relate on all levels! It’s like you are talking directly to me. It’s a very lonely life when most people don’t get you. I’m great full there are souls like you on earth. Congratulations to you and your beautiful wife, it was a great show in Lynn Mass, thank you for the autograph, i will cherish it.
I’m am totally lost. It’s about a guy I went out with 50 years ago. Why am I thinking about him in 2022. It’s like I miss him. Is that possible.
Thank you, Matt-Your words always give me strength in this crazy world. Your words always make sense out of things that are hard to understand. Thank you for all you share.
I feel I’m an old soul. I was told that many years ago..
I’ve had so many pass before me and I feel very alone without them ..what do I do ? Some days are worse then others with me missing them ..
Joyce…. When you have happy memories of your loved ones…. Smile… remember the joys you had… I feel we are sad because we could not go with them…. But they are still with us… just over the horizon…
Peace
Scott
Thank you so much for this wonderful article Matt. Though I knew and have been told so many times that I am an old soul but your article gave a whole new insight to why I feel the way I do in so many situations.
Thank You for bringing so much clarity in my life.

My life is a long story my sister send I could write a book with my life I lost my mother and father a son and brother and I miss them so much I wish I could see my mom one more time I’m not to sure if I’m a old soul but i used to see people in their coffin before they passed on but it’s been a while it hasn’t happened I don’t know why
I feel like I’m a old soul, got bullied in school, never fit in with my classmates, very difficult child hood. My mom is a skilled medium, honestly I have no idea where, or when she had this. I wish I had this skill too, she reads , speaks to the spirits.
Thank you Matt for the article…
I am always told I’m too sensitive.Makes sense the way I look at things and feel
Looking forward to taking it all in and enjoying my time here
Matt
Cant wait for your new book to be released.
I do see you are on the road again. I imagine Alexa is with you. It must feel great to be out there seeing us all in person.
At one of your readings In Marlboro you were reading the lady sitting behind us.
She kept saying to the person beside her that’s not what happened at all. My sister and I were listening I was just about sobbing. What you were reading was my life walking through my husband’s sickness of about three years. I still can’t believe you hit his journey to heaven right on the nail. He has been gone almost six years now and every day or night I talk to him. I just miss him so much.
Thank you for all you give to everyone
Love to you and Alexa
Jeannie from New Hampshire moved to Massachusetts
I’m definitely a old soul.
I checked off pretty much all the boxes. Thank you so much Matt for helping us with your knowledge.
I guess I meet your definition. Would love the opportunity to actually speak with you, not having much luck there… Cheers
My mom has always said I was an “old soul”. I don’t see dead people, but I have a strong intuition. I can often sense the emotions of the people around me. My inner gut has never steered me wrong. In fact, I believe it is how I have avoided many problems that most people have. I have had a very happy life. I have problems, but I have the ability to see the bigger picture and have come out stronger in the end. I wasn’t bullied in school. I have always been outgoing, and once I understood who I was (about age 14) and what kind of person I wanted to be, I have been able to take the focus off of me and see people for who they are. I am surrounded by angels and I try to make decisions and live my life so that I can feel their support and move forward in life.
ja…, we recognize each other!
Greetings from Germany -Potsdam
Thank You Matt for opening my eyes and making me understand exactly what a Old Soul means. I’m exactly everything you described in your message. Everyone is gone and I feel so alone, Parents, Grandparents, Aunt’s and Uncle’s. Even my Husband and only child my very Special and Beautiful special no Son. I don’t understand why, but I do believe I’ll see them again some days. I’m still having trouble with what is my purpose and why didn’t God take me when he took my guy’s. I just wanted to say Thank You again, you have helped me through some rough times at which I didn’t understand. You are a Blessing to me. Have a Great Day.
I guess I am an old soul because everything hurts me I worry about everything animals my boy my family I can judge people who they are I have been hurt through marriage and I believe I fit in with an old soul I love my garden but I am fed up it’s life because I have so many things wrong love your show
When I was 13, I lost my adored grandmother at the age of 55. I didn’t understand until decades after her crossing that my ability to “see” her sitting in her chair smoking a cigarette in the immediate weeks following her death had been her way of using the tremendous love bond between us to let me know she was alright. There hasn’t been a day in these last 54 years that I don’t think of her and send her loving thoughts. That was the first psychic experience that I remember. As the years passed, psychic ability came stronger and faster in the form of prophetic dreams, visitation dreams and actual “physical presence” visits of loved ones (mostly those who had recently passed) and an understanding of things on a level and depth that I struggled with until I understood to just let it flow.
As the years continued I had experienced so many happenings and sensitivity to “see” things in ways that surpassed the norm that I stopped questioning the gift. The gift also sharpened my ability to navigate life and trust my gut. I believe there would be a lot of happier people in the world if they would listen to and follow their inner voice.
Although my abilities could drive another to distraction, I cannot see auras nor am I able to “read” another or comment about what surrounds other individuals.
I have known for a long time that I am an empath. I draw people to me who want to talk about their psychic experiences. I am honored to reassure them they’re not crazy or imagining things. I believe we are all born with psychic ability but so many of us are led away from the gift because of religious training, upbringing, etc. that what little psychic gift is beaten out of them before it gets a chance to enrich their lives. Such a shame!
My gramma always said my first born son whom she adored and vice cersa ❣️ always said “ Jordan is an old soul” she was a beautiful beautiful soul & I miss her so
thank you for this post Matt you are so amazing young man
You described me to the “T”. I am a old soul. My life has been filled with “never fitting in”. I am so sensitive to everything in life. People, plants animals and our earth. Once I cried looking into the eyes of a horse and I don’t know why. I felt sadness from the soul of that horse.
My life has been all about the care of people. Nursing homes, chilrends homes and hospitals.
I sometimes think I’m an old soul , I know when things are going to happen , things will flash before my eyes then later it happens . It’s kind of strange but when it happens I expect something in the very near future I was told years ago I had the gift but I was afraid to pursue it
It’s 6am in the morning, tears are rolling down my face and I’m nodding my head and yelling yes, yes, that’s me! Thank you so much Matt, that message resonated deeply with me and it’s made my heart glow. Bless you x
Yes I do feel I am old soul also my son nick always have empathy for people I am a cryer it hurts my heart kinda crazy but I can feel a heavy ache for people.. thank you for explaining this to me
Matt. I am old soul. I know someday we will meet and Alex is having having a girl and for a whole month I’ve been having these feelings and hearing on my left ear Rosa is in the oven every time I look at you and Alexandra I keep hearing Rosa is in the oven and all of a sudden just a fast few days you announced that she’s pregnant I my intuition was right and I’m amazed by it and thank you for explaining to me what is a really an old soul really is and everything you said you nailed it thank you
Are older souls Autistic because what you described sounds like Autistic people. Do you see a link there?
I was born with relative perfect pitch and played songs by ear since age 3 on piano. Then taught myself guitar and played all the Beatle songs. Always felt different. Played lead guitar in many bands
Being an “old soul” myself, I tapped into the spiritual at a very young age. I agree that an “old soul” can feel out of place here, in the world. Maybe we are a kind of “earth angel” and that is our calling! Sometimes being an empath can be exhausting but my faith and prayers have brought me peace.
You are so right I am a very caring person I was always trying to fit in I could read a person by looking and talking to them and feeling their pain .worries.and sadness .that’s why I hardly come out of my home .I love animals and stars I hate seeing animals suffer or being hurt it’s as if I’m getting hurt or losing my best friend.
I identify with everything you described about high school. As difficult as it was for me, I believe it is much worse today with the addition of social media. I am thankful that part of my life is far behind me. College was a much better experience for me. Today I have my antique, art and home furnishings business. I could not be happier.
Interestingly, I have several people who have passed come to visit me or give me messages. It does freak people out when I give them a message some time, but it has always been accurate. I hope to be in your audience one day.
I’ve had a knowing about the spirit world, I’ve always felt different if i told my mum about anything spiritual
she would say :oh she’s off her rocker: meaning I’m mad, i have had people that want to befriend me but
i didn’t trust them, and if i spoke about spiritual things they would make fun of me, even my brother and my father would say i was stupid, but now aged 68 i just say to my brother ok when you get to the other side you
will say oh my sister was right xxxxxxxxxxx
Would love to connect w/other “old souls”. I am a youthful 71 & struggling w/finding my direction!?! Loneliness is so overwhelming @ times.
I hear you there Pam!! Would love some zoom calls to discuss “things.”
Blessings
Hello Matt! Gist of all I want to congratulate you and Alexa for your precious one that will arrive in Aigust. I get the giggles when I watch both of you talking about it. You reminded me how it felt when I was expecting.
It has been few months that I discovered you on FB and o haven’t missed any video of yours.
I believe and I was told that I am an old soul. I am an empathy big time. I can’t stand watching people or animals suffer. I love nature.
I think I am a psychic too not to the degree to speak to dead but I feel them around me. Also through my dreams. I also feel them sitting at the edge of my bed. I smell them. I have a lot of experience s too many to write them all. I know things that happen ahead of time.
I am going to order all of your books because these are the kind of books that I read in a day.
I was in one of your online readings on March 12. I guess no one wanted to talk to me that day. I will try another day.
Be blessed and thank you.
I always knew I must of been here before… as there seemed to be too many times when I thought I have been to certain places before….I have also felt like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole../.( especially around my family…. They are all soooooo rough, and at times ruthless…I always seems to feel others pains and sorrows , as well as all the animals.. I cld never watch someone going through pain even on T. V.. because I actually felt their pain as well..
So I guess I’m an Empath.. /
So Sorry for your loss Donna. Losing your best friend would be unimaginable. I too am an old soul and have suffered so because of it. My dear friend passed last year and I find myself so alone.
I’m very grateful for Matt Fraser, love his personality and gift of connection between heaven and here.
I have a strong 6th sense and I believe I can tell immediately if someone is unwell. Not sure what I could do with that.
Wishing you peace
I love being an old soul. Sometimes it’s hard but I know this is where I should be and what I should be experiencing. Just trying to be the best version of myself & spread some love, kindness & empathy.
I too am an old soul of 74 my beloved husband passed 2 years ago, i am also very lonely we were together for 50 years and will have been married 50 years this july
Matt, I totally get what you wrote in this article. I was the kid that never fit in with 98 percent of my classmates and it was the same throughout my adult life to this day. I am and always will be the outsider. My senses for the last three years though have an additional wrinkle. Up at 4am dozens of times and last week this happened and fresh coffee aroma was present the 15 minutes I was awake . Yes, I looked all around the house for that coffee. There was none to be found. A life changing event I experienced may be rooted in this, I’m not sure.
Walt, my grandmother made the best coffee, could just be a sign from someone who watches over you. But the energy has been very intense the last few months , stay positive, thoughts have wings.
Hi Matt ,. I have been wanting to connect with you since I first watched your TV show last year ,the thought that our loved one are near is a comfort . Even though I am a Catholic and the priest tells us that all the time you feel that it is his job and have doubts ,hoping to organiser a reading with you in the near future ,sometime in you busy schedule Ann Maree
I too feel like I am an old soul as my Mom would say, when I was young, that I had sensitivity and would tune into people with understanding. I always felt different than other kids then and now as an adult. My heart always grafts to people who are unfairly treated and they turn out to be my best friends. When I was young and dating, I would tell my Mom, that my Soulmate or Mr. Right was a casualty in Vietnam.
I’ve had some paranormal experiences and my Marine Soulmate was a casualty
and he gives me signs that he is watching over me and one day, we will be together.
Thanks Matt for helping so many people. You are a Wonderful Old Soul.
After you explained all that I reassured me I’m an old soul. Forgive me but I found a typo.
Enjoy life. Don’t let that (heave) baggage weigh you down! Feed your “
*heavy
Love ya!
I know exactly how you feel about never wanting to come back here. I tell my husband this all the time. Be well. God bless.
This is indeed all me . I always feel this way since I was a little boy . I constantly feel alone like nothing is moving . Bullied all my life . Alone alone I grow but feel like I’m going nowhere . Stagnated loneliness hardship . It’s like I have been cursed all my life . So how do I change this . Help .
I do want to find out where my oldest brother is since he disappeared almost 50 yrs ago and I haven’t heard from my husband Ray who passed 2/22/22 ! One year ago ! I miss you Al and Ray sooo much …. I hear NUTTJN from you guys ?? Can you help me Matt please ! Congrats on you baby !
Hi matt Thank you very much this has helped me alot. I believe l am an old soul as well. Your a blessing for sure
I feel like I am an old soul since all my life I have felt different from everyone else and like an outsider looking in, which is how I have always described myself. Over the years I have begun to understand myself as an empath, spiritual healer, writer, and as an intuitive. I have a wonderful support group
I think I am an old soul never fit in high school either, never fit in elementary for that matter. Felt like the black sheep among the five siblings.since I lost my child I no longer want to fit in. People ing is painfully heavy
I am the parent of one old soul ( younger child) and one very new soul (older child) . Their personality differences are notable. Both have had problems connecting with others, but are slowly finding “ their people”. I loved your article it had some great points.
Hi Pam, I feel the same I’m 65 and have only 2 friends I can talk to about the spirit would and how I feel different
As a retired OB nurse, I took care of thousands of newborns. I knew immediately if that newborn was an old soul. The direct gaze, the eye contact, no fussing, but just here for the experience, I could feel the love. I just knew these new humans would be incredible people.
Hey Matt. Thank-You for this blog, it is very helpful.
I believe I am an “Old Soul’ as well. I am Empath. I really “feel” things. I used to feel like an outsider in Hugh School and at parties in My Young adulthood. Still do in certain situations but at 60 years old I have learned which gatherings and situations to avoid. Actually I no longer seem to attract those situations. I am “Young at Heart”, and I certainly do not feel 60 years old, I do have an “Old Soul”…figure that one out lol. I try very hard to live life with a Positive attitude. Since My Husband passed 11 months ago I have been up against soo many challenges but My connection with Myself and His Spirit has deepened and given Me strength. My “Old Soul” is definitely a Positive in My life now.
Enjoy reading your blogs Matt. Not so sure about being an old soul..
I preordered your book and I am excited to read it. I know that I’m an old soul and especially when you describe it I could identify with everything. I am a gifted hairdresser which I know that my ability is a gift from above. People gravitate towards me for my energy and healing. Although lately I feel drained and have to work on my boundaries. I love my tribe of kindred spirits but love my alone recharge time also. I see beauty in the world and I struggle to see the “hell” we have surrounded our world. I pray that we see and hear what we need. God bless you for using your gift to help guide us. I’m thankful for people like you
I care for my terminal husband and now my sister. She is disabled from a stroke 7 yrs ago her husband committed suicide May 13 2021 and by the first of April she found out she has breast cancer and of course my life has been taken by illness. I morn my life @ times bc it’s gone as my own life. And institutional options is off the table, not in my neck of the woods, I have worked these places I know to much. How do I get my spirit off the floor?? And I believe that we are living hell in the here and now
From Canada.
Have a question my husband was driving home from work which was about an hour and a 1/2 and on the way my brother and sister and sister we’re talking to him they have passed. He said that he was talking to them and they asked him to take them to me would they not know where I am enormously enormously my husband does not normally believe believe in the spiritual realm
I don’t know what this means but I have seen things that have happened just within hours and I have seen things that have happened in the future and I have no ideal how to identify them. I have told people what I have seen and I have heard the twisting sounds of metal. I saw the 911 about 5 years before it happened. I saw the Oklahoma bombing before it happened. I seen a person on a rail road track being ran over by a train. I had 3 visions of a old metal bridge going down and the sound of it crashing was very piercing do my ears and the chilling that came over my body was unexplainable. I couldn’t go to sleep without telling my family what I saw and heard. I was told I was crazy. I woke up one morning and was walking through the house and looked at my momma before leaving for school and I told her that she would be getting a call about my grate grandmother passing away and it wasn’t long after I told her this the phone call came in.I had a vision of my oldest son being on a school and it getting into a accident and I was right on about that. I just loss my baby boy Christopher and I really feel from the bottom of my heart that someone took his life and made it to look like a suicide. I really can’t shake the feeling I have. Yesterday on March 14,2022 marked Two years of his passing. I would really love to know or how to figure out how to use my special gift that I have. I really one day when I could afford it to have a special consultation with you. I am the only one in my family that is working and I’m responsible for all the bills. This is because I don’t have any help from no one. I truly believe that you can communicate with our loved ones who have passed on.
I have, over many years, come to realise I am an old soul (have been told this by several mediums, altho I didn’t completely understand at the time) .. everything on this earth seems to hurt me to the core, my partner (lovingly) sits back, watches and wonders what I’m crying for .. other peoples struggles, yes totally .. but my true heartache is with animals, other living creatures and I ache from caring so much .. I’ve also read a lot abt ‘indigo children’ .. pretty sure I am one .. what are ur thoughts on that? X
Mt granddaughter is definitely an old soul. We have a connection beyond any boundary. I learn so much and gain a deeper understanding from your posts and lives. I have registered for your on line reading May 10th and so excited. Thank you for living your purpose.
Hi Matt, Thanks so much for your article on old souls. IM almost 81 now and some times I feel like an old soul. IM
grateful to you for all your wisdom each time I hear you talk . I always learn something new. So grateful to have found you and will be following ever step of the way .Can’t wait to see that new baby God Bless you both
Old soul or as I call it déjà vu, feelings, smells, familiar places, all seem to resonate with a memory. A near death experience as a teenage awakened my soul. Dreams that come true, feelings I can’t explain but I learned to follow these clues; the gift of seeing spirts and the pain of those who have passed tragically. Sharing with other is difficult and not without criticism but when a gift is given it is meant to be shared.
Since I was quite young I never felt I was in the correct time. I felt I don’t belong here. I was born in 1953. I didn’t have friends. At school the other kids talk bored me.
I have one sister and she is 10 years older than me. I was like an only child. To this day, I feel out of place in the big picture. I was a mishap. My deceased husband, who is Sicilian 100% and I were together since 9th grade. WE were always together.
I loved him but you never knew when he was going to blow up.
I am alone now with two adult kids. Never will have grandchildren.
I do know one thing. I NEVER want to come back to Earth to live. I hate it here.
I might be an old soul and enough is enough here in this existence. I love animals very much. I want to take care of them in Heaven if I make it there. I am never happy and my entire life has been like this.
Best Wishes, Vickie Burton Landa—S.E. Michigan
Then I made a typo * it not I
When I was in high school I never felt I fit in with the others, and also I had lots of painful experiences in high school because I was picked on in a huge way. I never dated till my 20’s because I had a fear of women. Not logical but true. Music – I feel a push to succeed with my fingerstyle acoustic guitar… a work in progress. Looking at my past long ago… I really created very negative experiences for others. This created remorse and guilt for me that I justly deserve. There is no undoing the past but I’m very aware now, and I’m very sensitive not to cause others to have pain because of my thoughts and actions. Because of people like you I’m evolving with awareness of people and everything on this planet. Your sharing of knowledge is creating waves of individual wellness, harmony, and growth for everyone who follows you.
I’m an empath and ancient soul, 63 years old… and all this time, I thought our wisdom, that familiar knowingness…was because of our million, previous lifetimes… but you say we’re connected to that universal wisdom? Anyways, in high school I was a loner, but had a strong sense of self… I looked out for the kids that were bullied. Wish I had been there for you, Matt.
Thank you Matt for this information very helpful my daughter and I saw you in Las Vegas at the Venetian such a great show so spiritually uplifting to me as my son had just passed away and a horrific accident December 21, 2021 I believe he was born an old soul
I think that I am an old soul. I’m highly sensitive to everything. Don’t have many friends but those I do have we just really click. As a child I found it so hard to fit in with my peers even my own family always felt the odd one out. As a grown up I still sometimes find it hard to fit in I will walk in a room and pick up on all the vibes off people it can be so overwhelming sometimes
Aww I just want to say hello . How much I love you and Alexa . I thank you for all the blessings you have sent me through your path. I’m a ole soul I’m sure. You always make me feel like I want to be a better person. Much love to you and Alexa
Another “old soul” here, with a similar background. My maternal grandmother had to ability to look at someone and describe their character like she was reading their minds. She circled a date on the calendar and said her father had just passed. He had called her name. That was followed by a letter arriving from Italy with the news from that exact day. My mom had the same ability. Since early childhood, I always able to see or figure things out differently. I remember screaming for my dad to stop the car, even though we had a green light. I said a truck is going through the intersection. I second later a truck, that I could not see coming, sped straight through the intersection. We would have been hit.
I was always a loner with an interest in chemistry, physics, biology and archeology at a very young age. It was frustrating to try and dicuss things that amazed me, with people my age.
I also remember meeting what I believe to be spirit guides, that I did not recognize, but knew so much about me and my family. This would happen while out walking and dealing with a tough life issue. A conversation would start and I would feel different or able to see a solution to what I was facing.
So happy to read this as it has helped to me connect to my inner self. A lot did resonate with me and also I can see it with a couple of my granddaughters. I am now at my happiest when listening to my music, from the fifties and sixties, when doing my art which I have recently taken up at age seventy three. I did work with aged people which I did enjoy.
This really resonates with me. I feel as though I’m “watching” my life instead of living it—just here gathering data. It’s a strange feeling, especially when you see/watch what others find or consider important.
My mother and I are both old souls. She was my best friend and died 8/72020. Lost my dad who was my mentor on 10/1/19
My husband died 9/15/13 unexpectedly. My aunt soon after on 10/31/13.
My best friend was murdered 7/7/93.
Had 4 golden retriever babies die one after another starting in 6/13 to husband’s death.
Sooo much more drama and loss and holding fast to the word of God and family.
I believe we could walk that white light of meeting
I always was that kid you know?
