Death can seem scary, but it’s really just a new step in our journey.
While each person’s experience is unique, there are common stages that many go through after passing away.
When we die, our journey into the afterlife begins with a warm welcome from loved ones who have passed away. The spirit may leave the body at different times, depending on the circumstances of death. After crossing over, the spirit person undergoes a life review to understand their actions and learn from them.
Once this review is complete, the spirit fully integrates into the spiritual world. They may take time for themselves in the afterlife or decide to reconnect with their loved ones left behind. Eventually, the spirit prepares for its next incarnation, continuing its journey of growth and learning
Here’s a simple look at what happens.
1. We decide our time of Departure
The spirit, or soul, might leave the body at different times. Some spirits leave right at the moment of death, while others might go a little before or after. This can depend on how the person dies. For example, if someone is very sick or has an accident, their spirit might leave their body a bit earlier to avoid the pain.
2. We are Greeted by our Loved Ones
When someone dies, they are often welcomed by family and friends who have already passed away. These loved ones help the person feel safe and not alone. Even pets can sense these friendly spirits and find comfort as they prepare to cross over.
3. We take time out to Rest
After crossing over, the spirit usually needs to rest. This rest helps them recover from their life on Earth and the process of dying. It’s a peaceful time where they heal with the help of other kind spirits. This resting phase is just temporary and helps them prepare for what comes next.
4. We experience an end of life review
Next, the spirit looks back on their life. This is called a life review. They see all the things they did, both good and bad, and understand how their actions affected others. This review helps them learn and grow. It usually takes several weeks to a year.
5. We Become a Full Spirit
Once the life review is done, the spirit fully joins the spiritual world. They can now explore, visit loved ones still on Earth, and even take on new roles. Some spirits become guides or helpers for those still living, offering support and wisdom.
6. We Prepare for upcoming reincarnations
The spirit then begins to prepare for their next life. They plan new lessons and experiences, often with other spirits they’ve known before. These groups of spirits help each other learn and grow across many lifetimes.
Final Thoughts
Knowing what happens when we die can make it less scary. Death is not an end but a new beginning. From being greeted by loved ones to preparing for a new life, the journey of the spirit continues, full of learning and love.
