Fascinating Reincarnation Facts: How Long Does It Take to Reincarnate?
Fascinating Reincarnation Facts is a series I’m doing to answer the most common questions I get about past lives.

Introduction to My Series of Reincarnation Facts
The term “reincarnation facts” best suits my purposes, though it’s obviously difficult to state anything as fact when it comes to the metaphysical. I try to always keep an open, flexible mind, and I know I still have much to learn. That said, I feel confident using “reincarnation facts” because I put so much effort into thoroughly researching each topic and stating my sources.
For me, I get most excited when I find multiple sources that are saying the same things over and over. This is especially true when these sources are completely unrelated to each other!
There’s my little disclaimer on why I’m comfortable using the term “reincarnation facts.” Now, on to the good stuff. I hope this helps with answering any questions you have along the lines of how long does it take to reincarnate…
So… How Long Does It Take to Reincarnate?
First, I’ll give you a straightforward answer to the question. (It’s the least I can do after making you read my whole spiel — ha). That way you can get the gist of how long it takes to reincarnate and move on with your life (and the next life, too). But, I’ll warn you, you might want to keep reading anyway, because the detailed answer is pretty mind-blowing.
The following excerpt derives from The Seth Material, found in Chapter 12:
“What determines the time between reincarnations?” the minister asked.
“You. If you are very tired, then you rest. If you are wise, you take time to digest your knowledge and plan your next life, even as a writer plans his next book. If you have too many ties with this reality or if you are too impatient, or if you have not learned sufficiently, then you may return too quickly. It is always up to the individual. There is no predestination. The answers are within yourself then, as the answers are within you now.”
