Nice to see you again Miss Tree Hugger, would you like a tarot reading, or a hoof reading today? I trust those predictions about where to invest your bits all turned out for the best? 

Fraud? I'd never! I have you know my brother and I are trained mystics, trained in the magical arts in Saddle Arabia herself! Now now! I can assure you we're the real deal!

Cheap costume? We paid good money for-I mean these were passed down from a long line of pony sooth-sayers! 

Here, let's give a trip down your previous lives! Free of charge! Just to show we're on the level!

Sit down, of course my brother has somewhere important to go. Stalling? Don't be so paranoid! Now now! Be comfortable! 

Now look into the sparkling magic orb! Oh? Just found it in some old chest somewhere with the initials SSB. 

Now I see, I see, in your previous life you were a very very generous princess, trusting of others, and loved for never jumping to conclusions about ponies who were just trying to help you. You really should-AGH!!! WHAT! WHAT IS-! ACK! IN MY HEAD! THE TRIPLE QUEEN OF THE ENDLESS ROADS! I-

If from beyond the veil of time and reality you wish to see my little pony! If you wish to see the versions of you that have been, then you shall be enlightened. 

First in the age of wonders, there was a mare named Spring, named for her ancestor Spring Song. She was part of a group of ponies who loved the natural world, and sought to ensure it was not devoured by progress and the new world ponies were creating for themselves. After all, it was the only world they had, if they did not protect it, who would? The leader of this group was a mare called Bright Eyes.

But Bright Eyes met the heroes of ages past, as did her other friends, and learning of the power of magic, Bright Eyes believed she could make a new world greater and more beautiful than any before. But she left the group protecting the natural to pursue this new dream. 

Spring would continue to protect the natural world. No, she did not fight with her former friend. After all, Bright Eyes still wished to protect the world. 

Then the new world came that Bright Eyes sought to create, and Spring was reborn as the pony she wished to be. Her dearest wish was to be able to share her love of nature with everypony all her days.

This new pony, Autumn Skye, would play outdoors. She knew every rock, flower and tree in the town of Ponyville of that generation. She loved the natural in her own way more than ponies. And by the wishes of Bright Eyes and many of her group, there was much nature to be enjoyed, and no pollution to fear or worry about.

She lived next door to a pony named Minty. And like everypony in that world, they were close friends.

Minty and another friend named Star Swirl would go on her nature walks, which they loved, giving her a chance to share her love of what comes about not by conscious choice of mortals and their ordeals, but the whims of the natural world.

She had quite a collection of pressed flowers in her book that never filled as long as she wished it. 

And she enjoyed picnic lunches at the Rainbowberry Fountain . . . I think you'll find the last surviving Rainbow Berry Bushes are being cultivated by one mare named Pinkie Pie in Ponyville.

She often had nature walks in the Breezies' garden and talked with them. 

At a beautiful fair once, she was painted green once with pink and magenta hair, with flowers and butterflies painted all across her body. I believe you'd call it 'groovy.'

When the Pegasi's home of Butterfly Island was made known, she greatly enjoyed visiting there and seeing a new area of the world and all it's natural wonders.

As her world ended, Autumn Skye met the Spirit of Night, and the Spirit of Chaos.

Sadly, her happiness, her heart and soul, were too simplistic to survive in the new world that was about to be born. But she had enough uniqueness to be carried on.

So Night and Chaos introduced her to a shadow that had belonged to the daughter of a legendary hero. A mare whose mother had suffered doubts and fears all her life, but had never stopped trying. Her daughter had become out going and in many ways the opposite of her parent. Shady The Second. 

The heroes had to give up their place in the world, leaving only their shadows, when the happy new world that Autumn Sky lived in had been born. But now that world too was ending. And their shadows would be used to birth ponies who could survive in the new world. 

In order for her to live in the new world, Autumn Skye and the shadow of Baby Shady had to become one. Create a new pony that was a sum of both.

This new pony, was named Tree Hugger. And the world was remade, so all that had been, never was, and all that now was, had always been. This is the story of your former lives you wished to hear. Do as you will with this knowledge little pony. 



Ugh! What was all that?! Here! Take your money! Take the creepy crystal ball! Take all of it! Have a good day! Have a good life! See you around! Bye-bye! Uh! Hope you enjoyed that reading! Brother come on, perhaps we should try something that won't get one of us possessed!

"Whoa...Haven't seen something that trippy since that spirit from another world visit the hut, I mean, I've never seen such a free spirit. Getting to experience a 2-D state of existence on the mural, and then getting to be one with the earth as a tree, and even getting to float around as a cotton candy cloud giving free chocolate milk to everypony . . . still don't know why he left in a huff and mumbled about erasing his own memory. Oh well, at least now I know that I've always been one with the earth in all my lives. I wonder if Princess Gaia's new news letter is out yet."
