No past life reading should exist in isolation without considering the wider soul group.
Further investigation would surely help support or dismiss any earlier findings.


Sir John Frederick William Herschel, 1st Baronet KH (March 7, 1792–May 11, 1871) was an English mathematician, astronomer, chemist, and experimental photographer/inventor. He was the son of astronomer Sir William Herschel and the father of 12 children.

Herschel originated the use of the Julian day system in astronomy. He named seven moons of Saturn and four moons of Uranus. He made many contributions to the science of photography, and investigated colour blindness and the chemical power of ultraviolet rays.




John Herschel was born in Slough, Berkshire, and studied at Eton College and St John's College, Cambridge. He graduated as senior wrangler in 1813. It was during his time as an undergraduate, that he became friends with Charles Babbage and George Peacock. He took up astronomy in 1816, building a reflecting telescope with a mirror 18 inches in diameter and with a 20-foot focal length. Between 1821 and 1823 he re-examined, with James South, the double stars catalogued by his father. For this work he was presented in 1826 with the Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society (which he won again in 1836), and with the Lalande Medal of the French Institute in 1825, while in 1821 the Royal Society bestowed upon him the Copley Medal for his mathematical contributions to their Transactions. He was made a Knight of the Royal Guelphic Order in 1831.



Declining an offer from the Duke of Sussex that they travel to South Africa on a Navy ship, Herschel and his wife paid ₤500 for passage on the 'S.S. Mountstuart Elphinstone', a ship of 611 tons, which departed from Portsmouth on 13 November 1833. The voyage to South Africa was made in order to catalogue the stars, nebulae, and other objects of the southern skies. This was to be a completion as well as extension of the survey of the northern heavens undertaken initially by his father William Herschel. He arrived in Cape Town on 15 January 1834 and set up a private 21ft telescope at Feldhausen at Wynberg. Amongst his other observations during this time was that of the return of Comet Halley.

However, in addition to his astronomical work, this voyage to a far corner of the British empire also gave Herschel an escape from the pressures under which he found himself in London, where he was one of the most sought-after of all British men of science. While in southern Africa, he engaged in a broad variety of scientific pursuits free from a sense of strong obligations to a larger scientific community. It was, he later recalled, probably the happiest time in his life. In an extraordinary departure from astronomy, he combined his talents with those of his wife, Margaret, and between 1834 and 1838 they produced 131 botanical illustrations of fine quality, showing the Cape flora. John Herschel used a camera lucida to obtain accurate outlines of the specimens and left the details to his wife. Even though their portfolio had been intended as a personal record, and despite the lack of floral dissections in the paintings, their accurate rendition makes them more valuable than contemporary collections. As their home during their stay in the Cape, they had selected 'Feldhausen', an old estate on the south-east side of Table Mountain. Here he set up his reflector to begin his survey of the southern skies.

Intrigued by the ideas of gradual formation of landscapes set out in Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology, he wrote to Lyell commenting and urging a search for natural laws underlying the "mystery of mysteries" of how species formed, prefacing his words with the couplet:

He that on such quest would go must know not fear or failing
To coward soul or faithless heart the search were unavailing.

Taking a gradualist view of development, he commented

"Time! Time! Time! — we must not impugn the Scripture Chronology, but we must interpret it in accordance with whatever shall appear on fair enquiry to be the truth for there cannot be two truths. And really there is scope enough: for the lives of the Patriarchs may as reasonably be extended to 5000 or 50000 years apiece as the days of Creation to as many thousand millions of years."

The document was circulated, and Charles Babbage incorporated extracts in his ninth and unofficial Bridgewater Treatise, which postulated laws set up by a divine programmer. When HMS Beagle called at Cape Town, Captain Robert FitzRoy and the young naturalist Charles Darwin visited Herschel on 3 June 1836. Later on, Darwin would be influenced by Herschel's writings in developing his theory advanced in The Origin of Species. In the opening lines of that work, Darwin writes that his intent is "to throw some light on the origin of species — that mystery of mysteries, as it has been called by one of our greatest philosophers", referring to Herschel.

Herschel returned to England in 1838, was created a baronet and published Results of Astronomical Observations made at the Cape of Good Hope in 1847. In this publication he proposed the names still used today for the seven then-known satellites of Saturn: Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan, and Iapetus. In the same year, Herschel received his second Copley Medal from the Royal Society for this work. A few years later, in 1852, he proposed the names still used today for the four then-known satellites of Uranus: Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon.




Herschel made numerous contributions to photography. He made improvements in photographic processes, particularly in inventing the cyanotype process and variations, the precursors of the modern blueprint process. He experimented with color reproduction, noting that rays of different parts of the spectrum tended to impart their own color to a photographic paper.

He coined the term photography and applied the terms negative and positive to photography.

He discovered sodium thiosulfate to be a solvent of silver halides in 1819, and informed Talbot and Daguerre of his discovery that this "hyposulphite of soda" ("hypo") could be used as a photographic fixer, to "fix" pictures and make them permanent, after experimentally applying it thus in 1839.



Herschel wrote many papers and articles, including entries on meteorology, physical geography and the telescope from the eighth edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica.

In 1835, the New York Sun newspaper wrote a series of satiric articles that came to be known as the Great Moon Hoax, with statements falsely attributed to Herschel about his supposed discoveries of animals living on the Moon, including batlike winged humanoids.

Herschel Island (in the Arctic Ocean, north of the Yukon Territory), Mount Herschel (in Antarctica) and J. Herschel crater, on the Moon, are named after him. As is Herschel Girls School in Cape Town, South Africa, which commemorates his visit to the area.



He married Margaret Brodie Stewart (1810-1864) on 3 March 1829.

Tom Conway (September 15, 1904 – April 22, 1967) was an English actor. He was born to English parents as Thomas Charles Sanders in St. Petersburg, Russia; his brother was the actor George Sanders. The family eventually moved back to England, where both brothers were educated at Brighton College. According to the IMDB, Tom lost a coin toss with George to decide which of the two of them would change his last name to avoid any confusion with each other.

Conway is remembered today for playing "The Falcon" in ten of that series' entries, taking over from his brother. Conway has also played Sherlock Holmes following Basil Rathbone after the 1946 - 1947 radio series. Despite an uncanny similarity to the sound of Rathbone's voice, he was not accepted as Holmes by the listening audience and was replaced in the same year by John Stanley. Conway also starred in three of film producer Val Lewton's horror films while a contract actor for RKO Pictures, twice playing Dr. Louis Judd in two otherwise unrelated films—Cat People (1942) and The Seventh Victim a year later—even though the character was killed in the first film.

His screen career diminished in the 1950s, but he appeared in a number of English films, on radio, and on television. In 1951, Conway replaced Vincent Price as the star of the radio mystery series The Saint, coincidentally taking on a role that his brother, Sanders, had played on film a decade earlier. In October, 1957, Conway performed as ventriloquist Max Collodi in Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode "The Glass Eye" to critical praise.

Poor eyesight and bouts of alcoholism took a toll on Conway later in his life. His brother stopped all contact with him over his drinking problem.

Though he reportedly amassed a fortune in excess of one million dollars during his Hollywood years, in September of 1965 Conway was reported by newspaper tabloids to be living in a $2-a-day flophouse in Venice, California.

Conway died at the age of 62.





Tom Conway: Born Thomas Charles Sanders on September 15, 1904 in St. Petersburg, Russia and died of a liver ailment on April 22, 1967 in Culver City, Los Angeles, California. Tom Conway and brother George Sanders were born to a wealthy family in pre-Bolshevik Revolution Russia, He might have followed his father's occuaption as a rope manufacturer and inherited several estates but for the Revolution. Tom (age 13) and George (age 11), together with their parents and sister Margaret (age 5) emigrated to England, leaving most of their wealth in the hands of the Bolsheviks. The brothers attended Dunhurst and Bedales, public schools, and eventually Brighton College. After college, Tom went to Northern Rhodesia where he worked in gold, copper and asbestos mines and even attempted ranching. Frustrated by his lack of success he borrowed passage home. In England, Conway worked as an engineer in a carburator company and later sold safety glass. He was discovered by a representative from a little theatre group who persuaded him to join them. Conway eventually worked for the Manchester Repertory Company and toured with them in twenty-five or thirty plays. He also appeared in BBC radio broadcasts. Brother George persuaded him to go to Hollywood. To prevent confusion on the part of the public, they tossed a coin to see who would have to change his name. Conway began work for MGM, eventually appearing as a contract player in twelve films there, including a bit part in "Mrs. Minniver". Brother George, tiring of RKO's Falcon series, offered Tom his first big break as his replacement in "The Falcon's Brother" (1942), he first of ten films he did in the series. He had a multitude of other roles (comedy, adventure, mysteries, horror, musicals, two Tarzan films, SF) but with the collapse of the studio system the calibre and number of film roles started to shrink in the '50s. He turned to television and had many guest roles in shows such as Detective Mark Saber, Rawhide, Adventures in Paradise, Perry Mason, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, the Betty Hutton Show, etc. Failing eyesight and prolonged bouts with alcohol took their toll on Tom Conway in his last years. His second wife, Queenie Leonard divorced him in 1963 and his brother broke off all contact with him over his drinking. In 1965 he was discovered living in a $2-a-day flophouse in a Venice. Conway stood tall, trim, and white haired to the end. His last years were marked with many hospital visits including an operation for caaracts. Former sister-in-law Zsa Zsa Gabor visited his hospital room one day and gave him $200. He died the next day. (Ref. IMDB)

If you dowse similar things over a number of years you might grasp the concept that the information might, in all probability, be correct.
This can be quite disturbing and upsetting for some people.
Presumably seeing truth would also produce such emotions?
Most people subconsciously seek to block all discussion about such things.
