Secrets of the Old Soul: 7 Defining Characteristics

Are you an old soul? In this video, you'll learn the defining traits and characteristics of the old soul. In the Michael teachings, Old souls are at their final reincarnational soul age stage, the fifth stage in an evolutionary progression that includes the levels of infant, baby, young, mature and finally, old.

Old souls are often misunderstood in society and considered eccentrics. For that reason, the old soul may be a loner.

Older souls are more interested in the spiritual path than material gain and may seek various forms of self-employment or other means of earning a living.

Ultimately, the old soul is more about "being" than doing. They seek the path of least resistance in life and prefer the motto of "live and let live."

WHERE TO FIND US

I feel like I am 17 going on 70... or 75. I have always been called an old soul and wise beyond my years since I was three, which I ironically pronounce free. I really prefer adults over peers. Along with being a bit of a misunderstood loner, I experience intense periods of introspection and detachment. I love to help people, theorize philosophically, meditate, and elevate my walk in spirituality among others.

Yes, I'm an old soul.

This leads to me wanting to escape 'normal' situations often. I have quit jobs several times, without any real idea of what I am going to do instead.

I spend so much time trying to figure out my place in this very broken World.

I am a HSP, INFJ, Enneagram 4w5.
I still feel like I know nothing about myself and future.

All I want to do, really, is to read books and sit in nature.
I couldn't give a damn about making money for money's sake, but it can be to my own detriment that I end up being stuck and having to 'sell my soul' temporarily to afford to live.

Much to learn.

Finally...after living an excluded, isolated life, feeling like an intruder, with a few friends, social distance, wondering why I didn't like what everyone liked, having difficulty finding a job and deciding a career, and asking myself what was wrong with me and why I was like that...I finally figured out the reason 😅

I'm pretty much OLD

i am a very old soul, even as a small child i felt out of my age bracket, always was closer to older ppl, kids my age were strange... my relationship with my mom by the time i was a teen was reversed . she was a young soul... i find my own company the best to be around!!

I RESONATE WITH THIS SO MUCH walking contradiction, self reflection, usually calm, naturally philosophical, EVEN THE EYESS, “wisdom, ” good listener, “sees” people, switches hobbies a lot. I’m literally 14 and I feel like I already had the “midlife crisis” of feeling stuck in the 9-5.

My mom told me: “when I held you for the first time, I just saw that you were an old soul, you’d been here before.”

I'm an old soul for sure. I wish I could meet more people like myself. it can be lonely when amongst people that don't understand. I sometimes feel like an outsider. I am better with strangers. I enjoyed this video. thanks

Even as a child, I always felt that I am completely different.The times I remember when I always look in the window and having the hobby of watching the blue skies when the people around me are sleeping at a noon time.And midnights, dawns and noons are very nostalgic to me-I can't even explain it!

I am an old soul. Since childchood feeling different from others, feeling and seeing more than people around me. I always preferred my own company and needed a lot of time for reflections. I love the nature and I have a green thumb for plants. Animals even the wild ones always liked my company and sneaked to be around me. I love staring at stars at night and I have always missed my real home which is not in this world. As a child I had healing powers and at the moment I'm working on regaining them. I am a teacher as I always felt it is my mission to educate others. Sometimes it's really hard for me to observe the world and young unexperienced souls struggling with understanding the essence of life.

[dovenest]

I both love and hate the world. For I love some of the possibilities that do exist in the world, but I hate its structure.

100% on point. I m an old soul!! and maybe an empath. I just recently found out what an empath is.

I’m definitely an old soul. I do have long-lasting jobs as an accountant but I’m definitely different than most people. I’m typically viewed as odd or weird or at least just plain eccentric. I’ve definitely dropped the materialism and The need to be perfectly dressed all the time and certainly don’t care for the usual workings of this world. I have many hobbies, tending to get deep into one, then on to another the next year, and so on. Although gardening and outdoor activities, especially horseback riding, have stuck with me for the better part of my life. I love my solitude and now that I’m in my early 60s and find myself without a relationship, I really have no desire whatsoever to enter into another one. My life is my own to live as I please, my spirituality and meditation practices in particular, and I am loving this life in this time construct. Remembering now how the universal consciousness works I no longer fear physical death and look forward to the next round!

I have all of the qualities of an Old Soul, except for the rumpled clothing! I guess I’m still in the process of relaxing into this lifetime.. Thank for the video. You nailed it!. Dr. Sharon

I've often thought myself an old soul. It is comforting to know that there are others.

[michaeldogstar]

Well I was told by someone who did past life regressions that I was here at the beginning of the creation of this physical reality and I pass all of your criteria with flying colors. to add to the synchronicities my name is Michael and my bday is 22.11.77 and I have recently become fully established and in touch with my inner guru!!!

[shepherdsoutcry]

Lol, I love how they used Eckart tolles eyes.

[deborahbarry]

I Am an old soul... I could not deny it now. Never could I figure why I was always so different then so many. I am old in age now but those feelings have been with me all my life since I can remember. Thank you for your video I liked it

[brucevincent]

Only recently watching videos like this that I've begun to make the parallels to what I've felt for a long time. This one especially. Nice to know I'm not the only one

[chinmayi]
