Usually they mean the same. 'rebirth' is a less specific term, e.g. in "Birth of a Nation". Reincarnation means literally "putting on flesh again". The term transmigration means being reincarnated as a different (e.g. animal) species. Metempsychosis has been used for both reincarnation as human or animal.
