I would like it if you would all explain for me what you believe happens after you have died, in detail. I don't mean decomposing either, so don't even think of saying that.
Is there an afterlife for you? If so, what is it like? How long do you stay there? Are you physically there or is it just your soul? What do we look like there? etc...
I'm curious and I want to know as much about your belief on this matter as you can share.

I myself believe in reincarnation. Once the body dies, the soul is released and enters another being, maybe not that of a human, or even an animal. But it re-enters something and continues to live. Those who believe in reincarnation say you can find out about your past life by simply figuring out what period in time you're most drawn to.


--------------------
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person, that wasn't
supposed to ever let you down probably will.
You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.
You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was
broken.
You'll fight with your best friend.
You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.
You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.
So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness
you'll never get back.

I can’t explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

People rushing everywhere
Swarming around like flies
Think Ill buy a forty four
Give them all a surprise

Think Im gonna kill myself
Cause a little suicide
Stick around for a couple of days
What a scandal if I died
*i think im gonna kill myself* by elton john

If I die tomorrow
As the minutes fade away
I can't remember
Have I said all I can say?
You're my everything
You make me feel so alive
If I die tomorrow

Why, I'm disappointed. For a wiccan forum there isn't much of a life after death thing going on. I was hoping for a drawn-out description of the Summerlands.

I believe in reincarnation because what people say about it are things that seem to be true, maybe my ideas will change, maybe they won't whose to say? But I for now its reincarnation for me.

I believe in reincarnation.
I believe many of us were here before.

I believe many of our attitudes and feelings have
been formed in a previous existence; why we
like or don't like without rational explanation.

What has always been important to the human
species is reproduction there of, relationships
with others to preserve the safety of an individual
and all sorts of other base line mammalian behaviour.

Maybe right now it's very important to you to wear
Calvin instead of Tommy or drive a Yamaha instead
of a Harley, but in that which surmounts the physical
that which is wholy spirit and not all that captured by
plasma T.V.s, there is a memory of the past life.

This manifests in 'baseless' fears, instant affinities,
bits of knowledge you could not have obtained
through normal means.

There might be a pull towards certain periods of
time which make no sense...i.e. why should you
be interested in Tamerlane as your family is
traced to Scotland?

Or why are you so sure there's a tomb in
that part of the desert?

It may manifest to you in flash backs...such
as watching some historical drama on television
and suddenly being at the time, and seeing/hearing
which isn't on the television, or as a child sitting
in the classroom, asking the teacher a 'stupid'
question, because you know what she is saying
is not how it happened.

Interesting. You have obviously sat and thought about that, kaylar. It's exactly the kind of detail I was hoping for. :]

I have considered it for many years
and it explains certain 'unexplanable' phenomenon.

As a strong Christian I believe in Heaven and Hell.All those who don't believe in God (you all) will go to Hell.Don't get me wrong,I have no spite towards Wiccans or any pagans,but I believe it's my duty to share the love of God to all.


--------------------
There is no turning back.
I have stepped over the line.
I will not let up, back up,
give up, or shut up.
My focus is clear,
my path straight,
my God reliable.
I am a disciple of Christ.

According to your religion, God forgives all sins, and God does everything for a reason. Yes there's free will, but explain, why would there be other religions if it meant that we'd all be condemmed to hell? Worship or die eh? Nice God you preach... no offense, but your going to come HERE and tell us we're going to hell?? That "(you all)" was by NO means necessary.

Learn to be more respectful... Even my christian friends who saw that said it was wrong
