The idea of life after death appears in many religions and cultures. While some believe in an afterlife or reincarnation, others view death as the end. Science offers no clear answer, so beliefs are mostly personal or cultural.
Julie Poole, a self-described spiritual guide, claims she died at 21 following a suicide attempt after years of abuse. During what she calls a three-day near-death experience, Poole says she visited a “higher realm” where angelic beings showed her visions of humanity’s future and told her she would return to life—and die again at age 67.
Now in her early 60s, Poole shares messages from these beings, saying her soul chose a life of suffering to clear karma and learn forgiveness. She describes a coming “Golden Age” (2012–2032), where corruption and control will fall, replaced by equality and truth.
She also claims extraterrestrial beings are watching over humanity and will intervene if global powers threaten nuclear destruction.
