And you ... Do you have birthmarks? What can they be due to?

Birthmarks...Do you have any? A crimson macha on your neck, a mole on your hip, a dark spot on your forehead or left shoulder... These are details that make us unique , signs that parents and children sometimes share in exact places, something that sometimes also happens between twins.

There was a time when it was considered something evil, the mark of witchcraft or bad luck.However, an interesting trend is what keeps that perspective of reincarnation where every birthmark would actually have an underlying explanation.

As you can see the subject is so truffled in traditions, ideas, legends and curiosities that it should not be missing in our space for restless minds like yours .So now tell us...what shape does your birthmark have?

Birthmarks...What do they owe?

Actually, nobody knows for sure why they appear. We could say that "we come from the factory" with them .Sometimes, they are spot spots, something often and suggestive.Other times, we can be born with very striking pigmentations that will imply that on the day of tomorrow, we want to undergo some operation to make them disappear or attenuate them.

And you ... Do you have birthmarks? What can they be due to?

It is not always something to be happy about.Now, it can be said that almost 80 percent of babies have some birthmark. Some last a lifetime, and others disappear or fade over time.

There are two types of birthmarks:

Vascular: They go pink, red and purple, they are blood or lymphatic vessels that stand out strongly under the skin.
Pigmented: are darker tones, those that go brown or darker gray.They are small changes in pigment cells.

It should be noted that their appearance, has nothing to do with what the mother has eaten or done during pregnancy. Not even because of a "craving." Most spots that babies have at birth are infantile hemangiomas, small bumps with some highlight to what is known as strawberry nevus."

And you ... Do you have birthmarks? What can they be due to?

Some experts tell us that they occur simply as a consequence of specific imbalances during the development of the skin itself as we grow in the womb.Some of these spots will disappear as we grow, and others will accompany us, whether we want to or not, for life.

Superstitions about birthmarks

A of the most common beliefs, leaving aside maternal cravings, is in the idea that every birthmark is actually the mark of a traumatic injury suffered in another life.

Just thinking about it, some ironic smile will come, others will let out a sigh of boredom and others will feel a slight chill. A person who has dedicated himself to deepen this issue is Dr.Jim Tucker of the University of Virginia. You can find many examples of this in their work, such as the dedicated or children who remember past lives ("Life before life").

And you ... Do you have birthmarks? What can they be due to?

In his research he usually gives several examples that each of us, of course, is free to accept or not.On our part we leave you small samples only as a "curiosity" , as our purpose is.

According to Dr.Tucker, a child in India was born without part of his fingers in one hand From a small age, he indicated with certainty that "in another life", he had suffered an accident: his fingers had been cut in a meat grinder.

Another woman was telling her grandmother's case.Before she died, she indicated to her granddaughter her desire to «Reincarnate» in a child.Before she died, the young woman left a mark on the neck of her grandmother.This detail is something traditional in many cultures, as in Thailand, thus recognizing «the relative» reincarnated in another person because he shares that mark.By chance, he wanted this girl's son to be born with that same sign on his neck.

Another boy interviewed by the doctor Tucker came into the world with curious marks on his chest.They looked like scars.The boy, through hypnosis, remembered that "in his other life" he had died from several bullet shots in the chest.

Incredible stories that leave us that supposed idea in the air.Each one is free to assume it or not, but without a doubt, it gives a lot of bibliography, articles and conferences for lovers of reincarnation..

Guess now what is that other superstition about birthmarks? If we take our time machine and go to the Middle Ages , you should be very careful that nobody discovers that little birthmark you have on your body.You can be accused of being a witch or a Demon acolyte!

And you ... Do you have birthmarks? What can they be due to?

Any wart, mole, swelling or discoloration of the skin was suspected of being a witch's mark. And be careful of having a double nipple … that was already the direct proof that you are a sorcerer or a witch with a lot of power. Frightening isn't it?

And now tell us...what is your birthmark like? Remember, if you liked this article, you also know the 8 traits you used to be a witch.
