The Forbidden 1200-year-old Book That Reveals The STAGES Your SOUL Goes Through Before INCARNATING
The Forbidden 1200-year-old Book That Reveals The STAGES Your SOUL Goes Through Before INCARNATING
Stop everything you are doing for 30 seconds because this could change the way you see your entire existence. Have you ever felt like there is something missing from what you were taught about life, death, and who you really are? As if someone had erased a page from the book of your soul. Turns out, you were right. Twelve centuries ago, a manuscript revealed humanity’s most closely guarded secret. And it was intentionally erased from history. Not by accident, but because it gives you a power that many do not want you to have. The knowledge of what your soul actually did before you were born. And today, it resurfaces.
The book, which few dare to mention, describes in detail the sacred stages the soul goes through before incarnating. The Codex Animi, in Latin, is an ancient manuscript written more than 1,200 years ago by a secret order of mystics. They say it contains maps of the soul’s journey before, during, and after life, revealing secrets that religions and governments have hidden to maintain control over people. Each stage reveals a piece of who you are and what you were programmed to forget. Imagine knowing clearly why you were born into this family and this body at this time. Imagine understanding your greatest challenges and your deepest pains as part of a much larger plan. A plan chosen by you before descending into this world.
We are not talking about loose theories or modern philosophies. We are talking about an ancient map of the soul, guarded for centuries, passed down only to a few initiates away from the eyes of the world. If you access this knowledge, your life will never be the same. You will understand that nothing happens by chance. Every person who crosses your path has a reason. Every obstacle is a stepping stone to something greater. And most importantly, you will realize that there are no victims in the universe. You are, and always have been, the architect of your journey. Recognizing this is the first step to moving out of the feeling of helplessness, guilt, and fear, and taking command of your existence.
How many times have you looked at your own life and thought, “Why am I here? What is the meaning of all this?” Most of us go through life as if we were on a runaway train. Events happen. People come and go. Challenges arise, and everything seems so out of our control. That feeling of emptiness, of lack of direction, does not happen by accident. It is the side effect of having forgotten who we truly are and what we came here to do. But what if I told you that before you were born, you knew exactly the reason behind every step you would take? According to the forbidden book, before incarnating, your soul undergoes a profound preparation process.
You, as a free consciousness, chose your parents, your physical body, the challenges you would face, and the missions you would carry. All of this was decided in a state of total clarity and wisdom, without fear, without doubts. Your soul knew that every experience, even the most painful ones, would be an essential part of your evolution. Just as gold is purified in fire, your soul knew that only through experience could it expand its light. And the most amazing part: you were not alone in this planning. You were guided by beings of light, masters, spiritual counselors, and loving consciousnesses who helped you design the perfect life for your growth.
When you understand that nothing is by chance, your vision of life changes radically. Pain is no longer punishment; it is training. Losses are not punishments; they are opportunities to make room for something greater. Difficulties stop being burdens; they become keys to the next level of your journey. This awareness transforms suffering into power, transforms fear into wisdom, and transforms doubt into faith. So now, close your eyes for a moment and ask if the answer resonates within you like an ancient whisper. If it does, then you are ready to remember your soul’s journey.
Now let us understand the seven sacred stages your soul goes through before being born. According to the Codex Animi, before incarnating, your soul passes through seven sacred stages. These stages are like the backstage of existence where all the preparation happens. Each stage has a purpose. Each stage shapes who you are. And knowing this process is like receiving the map back—the map that was taken from you at the moment of birth.
Stage one is the call of the universal consciousness. Many of us go through life with a silent, almost imperceptible feeling—a longing for something we cannot explain, a sense that something is missing. Even when everything seems right on the outside, this feeling is not imagination; it is an echo of the first stage of the soul’s journey. According to the Codex Animi, everything begins when the universal consciousness, the beating heart of all existence, issues a call. This call is not an order; it is not an imposition. It is a loving invitation, a silent music that crosses dimensions and reaches your soul wherever it may be.
When your soul hears this call, it remembers. It is time to evolve again. It is time to live a new experience. It is time to return to the sacred game of physical existence. At that moment, you, as a free soul, have the supreme choice to accept or not accept the call. And believe me, if you are hearing this now, it is because somewhere, a long time ago, you accepted. You chose to return. You chose to live. You chose to feel, love, grow, make mistakes, and start over. Even now, incarnated, the call continues to echo. It appears in moments of silence, in the sparkle of a child’s eyes, in the beauty of a sunset that makes you cry for no reason, and in that restlessness that makes you seek answers society never gave you.
Recognizing the call is recognizing that you are not just a body. It is accepting that your existence has a much greater purpose than just working, paying bills, and going with the flow. When you begin to consciously listen to this call, your life changes. You start to seek more meaning in your choices. You feel the urge to align with the truth of your soul. You start to remember, even without understanding how. If this call vibrates within you now, know this: you are ready to remember what you have forgotten.
Stage two is the life review. Do you carry guilt and regrets that seem to hold you back? How many times have you caught yourself thinking, “If only I had done things differently. If only I had said what I kept inside. If only I could go back in time.” Most of us live trapped by these invisible chains: regrets from the past, guilt that paralyzes us, mistakes that seem unforgivable. And yet, deep down, we know that all of this is part of something greater. But what if I told you that even before being born, your soul had already reviewed all of this and more in a single, profound experience of consciousness?
According to the Codex Animi, the second stage of the soul’s journey is the life review. Before diving into a new body, your soul is invited to revisit everything it lived in its past existences. And this review is different from any human judgment. There is no punitive God pointing a finger. There is no shame. There is no condemnation. There is only consciousness and love. You feel, in the first person, each act you performed and the impact it had on others. If you hurt someone, you feel that person’s pain. If you healed someone, you feel that person’s joy. If you inspired someone, you feel that person’s soul expand.
The life review is a great lesson in empathy and cosmic responsibility, not to punish you, but to teach you so that you can grow and evolve. Knowing that your soul has already reviewed your actions completely changes the way you deal with mistakes and regrets. You understand that mistakes are not the end; they are tools for learning. Guilt is a prison, but consciousness is liberation. Forgiveness is not a favor to others; it is a gift to your own soul. From this understanding, you can begin to live with more lightness, more compassion, and more responsibility. And the beauty is that you can, at any moment, change the impact you are creating. Imagine that you could do your own life review now. While there is still time to change what needs to be changed, close your eyes and ask yourself: “If I had to review my life today, what would I want to change? What impact am I leaving on the people who cross my path? What mark do I want to engrave on the eternity of my soul?” This awareness is a gift.
Stage three is the council of souls. Do you feel like you need to make important decisions but do not know who to turn to? So many choices, so many possible paths, and often the feeling of being completely alone to decide. But what if I told you that you have never been alone? That there is an invisible, loving, and wise force that has been guiding you long before you were born? In the third stage of the soul’s journey revealed in the Codex Animi, you meet those who have walked by your side since before your first breath: the Council of Souls. After the life review, your soul is taken to a sacred place, a plane of pure light and consciousness where it meets with the Council of Souls.
Imagine a silent room vibrating with love. Beings of light—ancient, compassionate, immensely wise—gather around you. They know you better than you know yourself. They remember all your journeys, your struggles, and your victories. These beings do not judge; they welcome. And together, you analyze the lessons your soul still wishes to learn, the wounds that still need to be healed, and the abilities your soul longs to develop. It is in this council that the plan for your next life is drawn. You discuss which challenges you will choose to face, which souls you will meet along the way as allies, teachers, or even opponents, and what great mission your soul will seek to fulfill. And yes, you actively participate in this plan. Nothing is imposed; you choose with full consciousness.
Knowing that you have always had a loving spiritual team by your side completely transforms your perception of life. You begin to realize that strong intuitions are not just impressions; they are signs sent by this council. Important dreams, chance encounters, and even difficult pains can be parts of the plan drawn with love. And more, you understand that you can reconnect with your council even now through meditation, sincere prayer, and deep silence. You can hear these ancient voices again. You can ask for clarity, strength, and guidance.
Stage four is the choice of life purpose. Days that pass the same, dreams that seem distant, a feeling that you were born for something more, but still have not discovered what it is—that feeling of emptiness is not a mistake. It is the sign that somewhere your soul still remembers the mission it chose, but that you forgot as you crossed the veil of physical existence. After reviewing your past lives and planning your next steps with the Council of Souls, comes the most sacred moment of all: the choice of your life purpose. According to the Codex Animi, the soul does not incarnate without a mission. It chooses with clarity and love what will be the great lesson, the great transformation, and the great impact it will seek in this existence.
This purpose can manifest in various ways: healing relationships from past lives, developing compassion or courage, inspiring and awakening other souls, or bringing new talents and wisdom to the world. Each purpose is unique. Each mission is irreplaceable. And most importantly, your soul never chooses an impossible purpose for itself. You were born with everything you need inside you to fulfill what you chose. The first key to remembering your purpose is to pay attention to what deeply touches your soul. Ask yourself: “What situations awaken my passion and energy? What kinds of problems in the world would I like to solve? What would I do with joy even without receiving anything in return?” Your purpose is hidden in these simple answers. It is not outside you, waiting to be found like a lost treasure. It is already pulsing inside your heart like a discrete flame waiting to be fed. Moreover, the challenges that repeat the most in your life are also precious clues. The greatest pains carry the seeds of your purpose. What hurt you most in the past may be exactly what you came to heal in yourself and in others.
Stage five is the choice of body and family. Many people believe that birth is a random lottery, that you simply appear in any family, in any body, in any place. But the Codex Animi reveals something very different and much deeper. You chose all of this before incarnating. Your soul, in full consciousness, was led to visualize different possibilities of bodies, family lineages, and social and historical environments. And among all the options, you chose the one that best matched your life purpose. I know this idea can be hard to accept, especially when we look at lives full of pain, abandonment, poverty, and abuse. It may seem absurd to imagine that someone would choose to go through that. But your soul does not think like the human ego. It sees every difficulty as a tool, every scar as a catalyst for awakening. It chooses not the easiest path, but the most powerful for its evolution.
You did not choose your parents for external appearances. You chose them for the invisible lessons they carried. Perhaps to learn forgiveness. Perhaps to break cycles of pain that have been repeating for generations. Perhaps to strengthen yourself through overcoming. The same goes for your body. You chose the physical characteristics, the genetic predispositions, and the limitations or facilities because they would be perfect for the challenges and achievements you set out to experience. Nothing, absolutely nothing, was a mistake. When you understand this, you begin to look at your personal story with new eyes. Pain ceases to be injustice and becomes purpose. Resentment toward your parents or the environment you were born into can dissolve into understanding. You realize that the souls that challenged you the most on Earth are often the ones who loved you the most in the spiritual plane—those who agreed to play difficult roles for your growth. And the transformation happens here. When you honor your soul’s choices, you unlock the true power within you. Instead of feeling like a victim of circumstances, you recognize yourself as a free being who accepted the most courageous mission of all: to live and evolve through the human experience.
Stage six is the veil of forgetfulness. After choosing your mission, your body, and your family, comes the most delicate moment of the soul’s journey: crossing the veil of forgetfulness. In the spiritual plane, your soul knows everything. It remembers all its lives, understands the purpose of each existence, and feels unity with the All. But for the human experience to be real, intense, and transformative, it is necessary to forget. It is necessary to be born without memories, like a blank page. The Codex Animi describes this moment as a silent crossing, a portal of glowing mist where, upon passing through, your soul leaves behind all awareness of eternal truths—not as punishment, not as a curse, but by choice.
Imagine trying to play a game where you already know all the outcomes. There would be no excitement, no growth, no uncertainty, no mystery, no doubt, and no pain. All of this is part of the plan. The veil is what makes the game of life real. It is what allows you to learn to love in the darkness, to trust the invisible, and to find your way even without a map. That is why you do not remember the Council of Souls. That is why you do not recall choosing your parents. That is why you so often feel lost. The veil was placed with love so that every step would be authentic. But the veil is not perfect. It is thin in some places. In dreams, in strong intuitions, and in moments of deep silence, you feel echoes of your true origin. You feel homesick for a place you cannot locate. You feel that there is something more waiting beyond what the eyes can see. That longing, that search, is your soul itself trying to pierce the veil, trying to remember. And the most beautiful thing is that you can start tearing this veil now, consciously. When you meditate, when you pay attention to subtle signs, when you follow your intuition without fear, small tears begin to appear. The light of who you really are starts to pass through. You remember that you are not just this body, not just this name, not just this story; you are eternal. And even if you have forgotten for a while, even if you have doubted, your essence has never changed. It has only slept, waiting for the right moment to awaken. If you feel you are ready to cross the veil of forgetfulness and truly live the purpose your soul chose, I invite you to the quantum thinking challenge. In 21 days, you will reprogram your mind, raise your vibration, and access the dormant power within you. Many people have already awakened to a new reality and transformed their lives. Now it is your turn.
Stage seven is the leap of faith: birth. After crossing the veil of forgetfulness, after leaving behind the conscious memory of everything you planned, you arrive at the most courageous moment of the soul’s journey: birth. The Codex Animi describes this moment as the true leap of faith. You, an eternal consciousness full of wisdom and love, dive into the dense layers of physical existence without guarantees, without certainties, without conscious memories—only pure trust, only the invisible impulse of one who knows that life is the path to expansion. This leap is perhaps the greatest act of courage in all existence. You leave the vastness of the infinite to enter a fragile and vulnerable body. You accept the limitation of matter. You accept pain, fear, and loss. You accept to forget who you are so that, through each human experience, you can remember again.
You are born small, defenseless. You breathe for the first time. You cry. The physical world welcomes you—harsh and wonderful at the same time. Warmth, cold, touch. Everything is new. But inside you, something ancient remains: the spark of remembrance. Early childhood is the period when the soul is still very connected to its origin. Small children talk about past lives, converse with invisible friends, and have dreams that seem like messages from other worlds. But over time, the veil becomes denser. Society shapes, conditions, and teaches you to forget. And yet, you never forget completely. In moments of silence, of deep pain, of inexplicable joy, your soul whispers. It remembers the leap you took; it remembers why you came. And if you listen, even if just for a flash, you will feel that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Each challenge you face is a chance to remember. Each love you experience is an echo of eternal truth. Each new beginning is a reminder that you were once courageous and you can be again.
Now take a deep breath. Feel the weight of your own courage. You agreed to be born. You agreed to forget. You agreed to play the hardest game of all: to live as a human and still try to remember that you are divine. Birth is not just the beginning of physical life; it is the beginning of the great adventure of the soul seeking its own light. And now that you remember this, it is impossible to go back. Now that you have started to remember, an inevitable question arises: Why was all of this hidden from us? If our soul goes through this sacred process before birth, if each life has a purpose, if we are the architects of our own existence, why were we taught to live as victims? Why did we grow up believing we are small, limited, and unworthy?
The answer is simple and brutal: because conscious souls are not easy to control. Since the dawn of civilizations, those who held power realized a dangerous truth. A human being who remembers their true nature does not accept being manipulated, does not accept living in fear, and does not accept the illusion of separation. Imagine a humanity where each person knew they are eternal, that they chose to be here, and that they are co-creators of their own reality. Governments, religions, and institutions would lose the ability to dictate rules through fear. Guilt, punishment, and control—the tools used for centuries—would simply stop working. That is why this knowledge was hidden; not just kept, it was intentionally erased, distorted, and discredited.
The Codex Animi is just one among many forbidden texts. Manuscripts that spoke of the soul’s journey were banned, burned, and buried in history. Masters who tried to remind humanity of their true origin were persecuted, ridiculed, and silenced. But truth has its own power. It cannot be buried forever. It lives in the margins of ancient books, in the messages of dreams, and in the whispers of your own heart. You feel it, do you not? That internal restlessness, that feeling that there is so much more than what was told, is your soul trying to break through the wall of lies that was built around you. And the good news is that no one can stop your soul from awakening. The power to remember who you are has always been and will always be within you. Now, knowing this, you have a choice. You can go back to sleep as those who built the “forgetting” want, or you can move forward, break old patterns, and live as what you have always been: an eternal, free, and conscious being.
Now that you know the truth was hidden, the next question is inevitable: How to start remembering who you truly are? The Codex Animi says that the memory of the soul is not completely erased; it remains dormant like a seed under the earth, waiting for the right conditions to bloom. And these conditions can be created. Remembering who you are does not happen in a magical flash. It is a process, a gradual reunion with what has always been inside you. And the more you align with certain practices and signs, the easier it becomes to tear the veil and let your true light emerge.
It all starts with silence. Modern life is noisy, chaotic, and full of distractions. And this is intentional, because in silence, you begin to hear what was forgotten. Meditating, even for a few minutes a day, is like lighting a lantern in the darkness of consciousness. Each deep breath, each moment of mindfulness, brings you closer to your essence. Then there are dreams. The Codex reveals that during sleep, the soul partially frees itself from the body’s limitations. Lucid dreams, out-of-body experiences, and recurring symbols—all of these are fragments of memory of your true origin trying to reach you. Do not ignore your dreams. Write them down. Reflect on them. Ask yourself, “What is my soul trying to remind me?” I have had dreams where I met a person that in this life I had never seen before, but when I woke up, I had the intense feeling that I had known them for a long time. Or dreams of houses and places where I felt very good, familiar, but that I had never seen or visited in this earthly life.
Another powerful way is to follow your intuition. Logic has been exalted in the modern world as the only reliable path, but the soul whispers through intuition. Sometimes, without apparent reason, you feel like changing your path, talking to someone, or starting a new project. These impulses, if pure and aligned, are not coincidences. They are memories of the soul in action. And above all, remember: you are not alone. The Council of Souls, your spiritual guides, your own higher essence—they are all still here waiting for you to make space for the reunion. When you sincerely ask for help, the universe responds, always. Awakening is an act of courage. It is stepping out of autopilot. It is refusing the narrative of fear, limitation, and guilt. It is choosing every day to remember: “I am eternal. I am light. I am the creator of my reality.”
Do not wait for the world to change for you to begin. Do not wait for everything to be perfect to act. The world changes when you change. Your life blooms when you choose to bloom. And if something inside you resonated with everything you heard so far, know this: your awakening has already begun. As you continue on this path, you will begin to notice that the world around you starts to reflect your internal shifts. The synchronicities will increase. You will find the right people at the right time. You will see that the challenges you once feared now appear as lessons, waiting to be integrated. The path of the soul is not a straight line; it is a spiral of constant ascension. Every time you think you have returned to a place, you are actually at a higher level, seeing the same reality from a new perspective.
This is the beauty of the human experience. We are meant to struggle, we are meant to stumble, and we are meant to find our way back to the light. It is in the finding that we prove our strength. Consider the lives of those who have paved the way before us—those who, despite the darkness of their times, managed to hold onto their inner truth. They were not special beings sent from above; they were souls like yours, souls that decided to remember. They faced the same veil, the same distractions, the same pressures, but they chose to listen to the whisper of the soul rather than the noise of the world.
Think about the nature of time. We perceive it as linear—past, present, and future. But from the perspective of your soul, all of this is happening simultaneously. Your past lives, your current life, and your future incarnations are all part of a vast tapestry of experience. By focusing on your growth in the present moment, you are effectively healing your past and shaping your future. You are clearing the path for the parts of you that have yet to be born and honoring the parts of you that have already lived.
This is the responsibility of consciousness. When you awaken, you do not just change yourself; you change the fabric of existence around you. Your energy shifts, and those who come into contact with you feel that shift. You become a beacon of light in a world that is often trying to pull people back into the shadows of fear and ignorance. This is why the knowledge was hidden. It is a catalyst for change that cannot be contained once it starts to spread.
Perhaps you feel tired. Perhaps you feel like you have been fighting a losing battle for a long time. It is important to acknowledge that exhaustion. Being a conscious soul in a world that is often unconscious is exhausting. You are constantly processing vibrations that are not your own. You are navigating systems that were built to keep you limited. But do not let this fatigue turn into resignation. Use it as fuel. Recognize that your weariness is proof of your efforts, proof that you are actively engaging with the world rather than passively drifting.
When you find yourself spiraling into doubt, return to the basics. Remember the stages. Remind yourself that you went through the Council of Souls. You chose your current life. You chose your challenges. When things feel overwhelming, look at your situation not as a victim, but as a student. Ask, “What is the lesson here? What part of my soul is being called to grow through this experience?” This simple shift in language—from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this teaching me?”—is the gateway to your power.
You might wonder about the role of love in all of this. Love is not just an emotion; it is the frequency of the universe. It is the language of the soul. When you feel disconnected, it is because you have lowered your frequency, moving away from love and into the realm of fear or separation. Reconnecting is as simple as choosing love again. Love for yourself, even in your brokenness. Love for your journey, even in its difficulty. Love for others, even when they cannot yet see the truth you have found. Love is the glue that holds the memory of your origin together.
As you move forward, cultivate patience. The process of remembering is not a race. There is no destination to reach. The “final” awakening is not an end, but a continuous state of being. You will have days where you feel everything clearly, and days where you feel lost again. That is normal. That is part of the rhythm of life. Do not judge your progress by the standards of the world. Do not look for external validation of your spiritual growth. The only validation you need is the peace in your heart and the clarity in your actions.
Imagine the freedom of living without the fear of death. When you truly remember that you are an eternal soul who has lived many times and will live many more, the sting of death loses its power. It becomes just another transition, like birth, like moving to a new home. This knowledge allows you to live more fully in the present, because you are no longer operating from a place of scarcity or finite time. You have all the time in the universe. You have always been, and you will always be.
This realization also changes your relationship with the material world. You stop chasing things to fill the void, because you realize the void is not a lack of things, but a need for connection with your true self. You start to value experiences, connections, and wisdom over possessions and status. You begin to curate your life to reflect the soul you are, rather than the persona you were told to adopt.
As we conclude this reflection, carry this thought with you: you are the hero of your own story. You have traveled through dimensions, sat with the Council, and made the ultimate leap of faith to be here. You are here because you have a mission that only you can fulfill. You are a crucial part of the puzzle of existence. Without your unique light, without your specific journey, the story of humanity would be incomplete.
Stay awake. Stay aware. Continue to peel back the layers of the veil. When you feel the pull of the old ways, breathe into the awareness that you have chosen something different. You have chosen to remember. You have chosen to be free. The journey ahead is yours to create. Every thought you have is a creative act. Every word you speak ripples through the collective consciousness. Use your power wisely. Use it with love. Use it to bring the light of the truth to those around you who are still asleep, not by preaching, but by living in a way that makes them ask, “What is it that they have that I am missing?”
You are the answer to that question. You are the embodiment of the secret that was meant to be erased. And by simply being here, by simply remembering, you are ensuring that the truth never dies. It lives through you. It grows through you. It shines through you. You are the eternal soul. Welcome back to yourself.
