Phantom Wounds: When the Past Bleeds Through to the Present

This, I have never talked about with a lot of people except some of my closest friends. Phantom wounds. We all probably have heard about the Phantom limbs experience, either if you are an amputee yet you still feel as if the limb is still there, or if you are one who identifies as Otherkin, then you might feel as if you have ears, tail, wings, etc.

Something I haven't really seen talked discussed about is Phantom wounds. Wounds either inflicted spiritually or that were experienced in a past life that seem to crop up again in the present life, yet there are no physical signs or placements of where those wounds are/were. I experience two different Phantom wounds, from what I can guess are two different past lives because I have not experienced any spiritually inflicted wounds (at least not to my knowledge).

The first one, and longest one I've experienced, even since I was a child, was a pain in my chest. One that isn't for cause of worry (had it checked before). Anytime I start to feel it, it feels like I have a pole sticking out of my chest. Well, if you have read my blog about remembering past lives, you know in the one I spoke about I died due to taking a spear to the chest.

The other one, I don't know the origins of just yet, but with it acting up recently I have a feeling I will. This one is only as I can describe as a slash to the face. Going diagonally from the middle of my forehead, over my right eye, and stopping just at the cheek.

I've felt this wound a few times but it had never caused any kind of discomfort or pain like the first one has. Today, it has done just that. It started up out of nowhere, a searing pain down my face and over my eye. It even caused that eye to blur for a while, but now it has just turned to a dull ache. It feels almost as if I had recently been injured.

I can think I will be gaining memories of the life in which I experienced receiving this wound, its the only reason I can come up with as to why it would start acting up like it has.

And for those who may never have experienced phantom wounds before, it feels like any other pain. I have bad knees, and there are day when I can't walk very well because of the pain they cause. These phantom wounds feel just as physical as these physical injuries I am dealing with from my teen years. They cause pain, and I actually feel it. They happen at random and I never know when I will feel them.
