Yes just not in the biblical sense.
I believe that all of our consciousness comes from the same "pool" of consciousness; that the essence of sentient life is itself a universal force, and that when we die our body and our specific individuality that resulted from the uniqueness of the human experience comes to an eternal end but the awareness that resided within returns to the source to be repurposed into new life.

Repeatedly in the Bible, people are referred to as “souls” (Exodus 31:14;Proverbs 11:30), especially in contexts that focus on the value of human life and personhood or on the concept of a “whole being” (Psalm 16:9-10;Ezekiel 18:4;Acts 2:41;Revelation 18:13).
The human soul is distinct from the heart (Deuteronomy 26:16;30:6) and the spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23;Hebrews 4:12) and the mind (Matthew 22:37;Mark 12:30;Luke 10:27). The human soul is created by God (Jeremiah 38:16). It can be strong or unsteady (2 Peter 2:14); it can be lost or saved (James 1:21;Ezekiel 18:4). We know that the human soul needs atonement (Leviticus 17:11) and is the part of us that is purified and protected by the truth and the work of the Holy Spirit (1 Peter 1:22). Jesus is the great Shepherd of souls (1 Peter 2:25).

@DeluxedEdition That’s interesting
Ecclesiastes 12:7 ... and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it .

not really.
our thoughts are chemical/electrical items that stop when we die
our bodies break down into chemicals that are reused by plants and animals

@HolyJustice really? I thought it was pretty much accepted in the astrology world (yeah I did that on purpose)
I don't claim to know much about space - except that there is too much between my ears.

Just wishful thinking. Anyone would want there to be something more than a memory after their gone.

The very reason that you're able to ask this question is proof you have one.

@HolyJustice 👍
@HolyJustice We have God's Word for a reason. So we don't have to guess. There are only two things that last: the Word of God (Mark 13:31) and the souls of men. This is because, like God’s Word, the soul is an imperishable thing.
if we do, we all share the same one

Yeah
