noun transmigrations
- Departure from one's homeland to live in another country; migration.
- A change from one state of existence to another. Any great change is like cold water in winter—one shrinks from the first plunge; and a lover may be excused who shivers a little at the transmigration into a husband.
- The movement of a soul from one body to another after death. Near-synonyms: metempsychosis, reincarnation (both broadly synonymous)
