Soul Plan: 5 Decisions Your Soul Makes Before Each Incarnation

Updated: 5 days ago

Before you took your first breath in this lifetime, your soul had already mapped out a detailed plan, a soul plan for your journey on Earth. This plan wasn’t made randomly. It was created with deep love, intention, and guidance from your primary soul guide, in a sacred space between lifetimes called the astral plane.

Your soul plan (or life plan) acts as a blueprint for your incarnation. It includes who you’ll be, where you’ll live, the people you’ll meet, the wounds you’ll heal, and the gifts you’ll share. It’s a sacred contract—an agreement your soul made with the Universe to learn, grow, evolve, and remember that love is at the center of everything. And here’s something many spiritually curious people don’t realize at first: if you’re drawn to topics like soul planning, reincarnation, and spirit guides, it’s very likely that you’re an old soul. This means your soul has incarnated many, many times—gathering wisdom, compassion, and a deeper sense of purpose with each lifetime.

 

But there’s something more important to remember: you still have free will. Your soul plan isn’t a rigid script. It’s a living, evolving map—one that you can explore in different ways. You even have the power to make new choices or ask to shift elements of your life plan if something no longer aligns or if you’re ready for a different kind of growth. Your Spirit Guides and the Universe honor your sovereignty and are always willing to adjust the path to support your soul’s highest good.

 

Even if you don’t consciously remember it (because of reincarnation amnesia), this plan is always alive within you. It subtly guides your experiences, challenges, longings, and inner knowing. And when you align with your soul plan, life begins to feel more meaningful, connected, and true to who you are.

 

So what exactly does your soul choose before each incarnation?

 

5 decisions your soul makes when creating your life plan

1. Your Soul Types Before incarnating, your soul chooses a unique blend of energetic archetypes, often referred to as your soul types. These determine your natural personality traits and the kinds of experiences that will feel most aligned with who you truly are.

According to renowned psychic Ainslie MacLeod, there are 10 soul types, and we each embody a mix of six to nine of them—though one or two are usually dominant. Understanding your unique combination can help you make sense of your reactions, passions, and the roles you naturally take on in life.

Here are the 10 soul types:

  1. The Helper – Humble, service-oriented, and hardworking

  2. The Caregiver – Empathic, nurturing, and loving

  3. The Educator – Natural teacher, mentor, and guide

  4. The Thinker – Analytical, curious, and intellectually driven

  5. The Creator – Artistic, sensitive, and imaginative

  6. The Performer – Expressive, charismatic, and communicative

  7. The Hunter – Bold, active, and courageous

  8. The Leader – Confident, decisive, and inspiring

  9. The Spiritualist – Introspective, compassionate, and focused on inner growth

  10. The Transformer – Visionary, intense, and driven to create lasting change

These soul types don’t limit you—they offer a window into your soul’s natural design. You may find yourself resonating strongly with one or two, but notice that others subtly influence how you think, feel, and show up in the world.

By getting to know your dominant soul types through channeling or the Akashic Records, you begin to understand why you’re drawn to certain environments, relationships, or vocations—and why some things feel deeply fulfilling while others don’t. It’s like learning the language of your soul.

2. Your Life Missions (Yes, Plural) Many people think we have one singular “purpose” in life. But in reality, our soul chooses multiple missions—themes and lessons it wants to explore in this incarnation.

Some missions may be collective (like a mission of change to raise the consciousness of humanity), while others are deeply personal (like a mission of self-love to learn to love yourself, or a mission of self-healing to break ancestral patterns or heal past-life trauma).

These missions evolve with you. They are woven through your passions, your struggles, and your recurring life themes. You’re likely already living some of them—even if you don’t fully realize it yet.

3. Your Innate Talents and Deep Desires Your soul doesn’t drop you into this life empty-handed. You come with a toolkit—gifts, talents, sensitivities, and passions that are perfectly matched to your life missions.

You may feel naturally drawn to art, healing, music, writing, entrepreneurship, caring for others, or understanding spiritual truths. Those things aren’t random. They are soul codes. They were placed in you to be used, explored, and expressed.

The same goes for your desires—the dreams that whisper to you. They often reflect what your soul came here to experience and create. Listening to them is one way to realign with your soul plan.

Why Understanding Your Soul Plan Changes Everything

When you begin to understand your soul’s plan, you stop seeing your life as random or chaotic. You start to trust the process—even the difficult moments. You realize that every challenge has a purpose, and every longing is a breadcrumb from your soul.

Knowing your plan helps you:

  • Gain clarity on your purpose and path

  • Make aligned decisions with more ease

  • Heal old patterns with compassion

  • Reconnect with your natural gifts

  • Deepen your relationship with your soul guides and higher self

You stop fighting who you are—and start living who you are.
