Do Souls Age In Heaven?
A friend of mine was celebrating a birthday the other day and asked me, “Do we keep getting older in Heaven?” I had to laugh. The answer is No. There is no one is spirit that looks to be 167 years old, thank God! Can you imagine?
Actually, there would be souls who were thousands of years old. What would that even look like? But still, it’s a question that many people ask me.
The Meaning Of Time.
We celebrate birthdays to mark the passage of time. Time has an important meaning to us, so we mark years, anniversaries, birthdays – all the milestones that matter here on Earth. It doesn’t really work the same way in Heaven. Spirit is infinite and forever, not limited by time – so a year is like a drop of water in an infinite sea. So with that in mind, it makes sense that birthdays and things like that don’t have the same type of importance they do in the physical world. They are important as moments when we feel especially connected to those we love, but not because they mark a specific amount of time.
In Heaven, we are all pure energy that reflects our deepest, truest being. People take spirit forms that are a reflection of their best selves. That spirit form might reflect any age. What’s most important is that is a manifestation of the soul.
Your loved ones in Heaven appear as an image of themselves that best reflects them when they were free of illness when they were healthy and living their best life. For example, a person who was on life support for 12 years may choose to be 12 years younger in Heaven. Sometimes souls who have passed from Alzheimer’s or suffered for many years with an illness will choose to reflect who they were before they had the disease.
What about when couples pass away years apart?
When husbands and wives pass away years apart, sometimes they will choose to come through at an age that reflects when they were happiest together. And the one who passes first will wait for the other to join him at that age. This happens by leaving their physical appearance behind and taking spirit forms.
When children pass, they do not “age” in Heaven. They watch over their parents and family until one day they are reunited with their loved ones and can resume those connections. People who spent years of their lives depressed or anxious may come through as a reflection of their wilder, happier, younger days. Some people may choose to reflect their older, wiser selves, especially if they were happy and healthy in their later years.
Because I talk about Spirit as a reflection, sometimes people wonder if I mean they are just air or something. It’s not like that. When I see Spirit, I see a vision of the person when they were their happiest. I don’t see air. I see the true soul self. Spirit is a reflection of the love in a person’s heart as well as their physical appearance.
Heaven is a reunion.
I am writing this blog because when you think about reuniting with loved ones in Heaven I want you to focus on what is important. The fact that you might pass 20 years after your husband won’t make a bit of difference when the time comes. If you are soul-mates, you will be a perfect match on the other side.
Your loved ones in Heaven do not want you to worry about what they will look like or the age gap between you. They just want you to know that they are in Heaven watching over you and supporting you. Their life journey is complete, but once you reunite, you will catch up and resume connection in the afterlife with those you love.
