Position:Home>Genealogy> Is it possible to inherit memories from your ancestors?Question:You can inherit looks and traits but can you inherit memories giving you a feeling of deja-vu. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You can inherit looks and traits but can you inherit memories giving you a feeling of deja-vu. Sometimes you feel you have a fascination with a certain place or people and you don't know where this comes from and nothing in your family that you know of can explain this. You do wonder if there is something genetic that makes you feel this way apart from the other explanations that are always proposed such as past lives. Genetic makeup is a complicated affair. For instance the womb environment of your Grandma or Great Grandma could have a bearing on your physical makeup, mental and emotional and personality traits. Maybe it goes even deeper than this in ways we currently cannot explain by science. Interesting question :) Very interesting :) My first cousin once removed has always had an interest in pottery and set himself up many years back in a small venture: has his own kiln. I have recently found out that very distant ancestors had a pottery business of some sort.. Report It |
