Djinn and Angelic planes...

There are some souls who halt in their journey to earth at either the djinn or the angelic plane a much longer time than a traveling soul would usually stay. And yet they cannot stay:

the energy that is still there keeps them restless until they have accomplished their journey.

Therefore, they come on earth as human beings, yet showing in their nature the character of the plane at which they had stationed on their way.

They cannot help feeling homesick, for they often unconsciously feel that they do not belong to this earth, that they had some experience somewhere else that they long to have again. And the only way these souls can find is through the love of art, science, or knowledge to the djinn world, and through piety, purity, and spirituality to the angelic plane.

This not only gives then a substitute for the life they have had, but to a greater or lesser extent the realization of that plane, because in the human being all planes are manifest.
