This is from the question and answer website Quora, the response is by author, Tom T. Moore to the question: If you believe in reincarnation, what would you come back as? Moore’s answer is very detailed and specific and follows what beliefs I had determined on my own. I found it very interesting, enjoy.

So if you believe in reincarnation, what would you like to come back as? Would you be the same gender as you are now?
People misunderstand reincarnation. Our souls volunteered for the “Earth Experiment,” and in order to be even considered, our souls had to reached a certain vibrational level. They agreed to be veiled from knowing their true identities. This was done, so that the souls would learn how to make billions of decisions. Why? because our souls were promised that one day in the future, our souls would meld together to form a creator (something that has NEVER been done in any of the other billions of universes), and we would take over running this universe, allowing Creator to move to a higher level. Our souls need to know how to make decisions, without relying on memories of how we handled a certain problem in thousands of other lives.
Our souls split off fragments of themselves for these Earth lives. There are typically six to twelve fragments of a soul (all with different soul interests) in what are called “soul clusters,” which work life after life with other soul clusters. Each soul fragment has on average, six hundred to eight hundred lives. Why the big difference? I was told it is up to each soul. Some like to experience everything the Earth has to offer as fast as possible—what I call the “drama queens.” Others choose to take it slower.
Our souls are not sitting around. While these lives are going on, they are having 500,000 to one million lives perhaps going on all across the universe for their learning, in preparation for their future duties as a creator.
Also, there are 12 parallel lives for each of these Earth lives all going on at the same time, on different frequencies, so that the souls get the biggest “bang for the buck” to compare how we react to lives on different frequencies. We are on Time Line 6, the middle frequency.
Our lives can be anywhere over thousands of years, depending upon what we need to learn, and our associations with the other soul clusters. My next Earth life will be as a female space pilot on one of 17 Earth star ships in the 3400 era, then back to the 2600 era to help “prepare” people for star travel, then back to the 3400 era again. Although I’m a very old soul sitting at 1,005 lives, as I keep coming back to push people along, I was told I still have 300 lives to go, some all the way back to the 1800s. So not only can we have lives forwards and backwards, but some of our lives can even overlap. I’m told that approximately half of my remaining lives will be as a female.
Hope that helps explain things a little better. I do have a free, weekly newsletter where people from all over the world send me questions to ask in a meditative state. You can check it out and subscribe if you wish at Yellowstone & Quakes, Immigrants, Homeless, ET’s, Cosby, Hinduism, Gary Sinise. I do not harvest email addresses.
