Greetings,
I have had these types of experiences before as well. It usually happens during deep trance meditation for me. Just as for you, I didn't just remember them, I actually lived pieces of them too. This included feeling pain, full blown emotions etc.... As for why it happens. I think that since we who study the occult or mysticism in general are more open to these experiences. So the 'powers' use that openess as a way of teaching us important lessons we need to learn by showing us things relevant to our current incarnations. At first I had viewed these experiences as just being interesting and 'fun'. But when I really looked hard at them and compared them to things in my life, I realized that there was a lot to learn from them. This may be the reason for the access to certain abilities from past lives. I'd say, consider which abilities you gained and which you didn't. Why those abilities? When I was trying to decode my experiences I found a great deal of help in the Tarot. But when trying to glean information from these experiences, keep your resources broad. In that, I mean, don't focus on just one method of discovery. Try a bunch of different things. Tarot, dreamwork, meditation, evocation of relevant spirits, etc... Whatever your comfortable with.lol Good luck !
