This is purely my own thinky thoughts, some rambling musings. My current view on souls is that each individual has a group of souls that come together for that person’s lifetime. Some of the souls exist before and/or after that lifetime, while others do not. This view is informed by my current study of Winifred Hodge Rose’s book Heathen Soul Lore Foundations (Volume I). For some people it will seem like semantics, whether you call something a soul or a soul part, but I think there is significance in the autonomy of the different souls. I also don’t think that everyone necessarily has the same grouping of souls. I’m still very early in my study and experiential research on this topic, so my views are not set in stone.
In the little bits of exploration that I have done with my own souls thus far (and it is very small at this point), I have noticed within myself that some souls present as strongly gendered, and some do not. As a child, I went through periods of presenting very gender nonconforming. As an adult, I have found it challenging to determine which (if any) gender I align with at my core. I will note here that I do not have body dysmorphia. I am generally content with my anatomical makeup. The topic of my personal gender is much more confusing. Could this possibly be connected to the makeup of my souls?
A person’s gender might have absolutely nothing to do with their souls. I just find it interesting that I got clear impressions of differences in gender in the soul work that I have done thus far with myself. Hopefully after much more exploration and study I will have more definitive thoughts. Thanks for reading my ramblings.
