Metempsychosis is a belief in life after death; and in the quest of this concept we can trace it in the philosophical undercurrent of the Greek Civilization that the ancient Greeks believed in some form of life after death; and that belief was very much near the idea of rebirth as the ancient Hindus had. It is astonishing that when Socrates was about to consume Hemlock as according to the dictates of the court, the philosopher in Socrates said, 'Now gentlemen, it is time to bid you goodbye; you are to stay here only to follow me after in the world next where life will continue'. Socrates wanted to mean that Hemlock could not terminate his life; and his life would continue after in some other form.
The Druids were an order of priests and teachers in the European religion of the countryside, called Paganism or Heathenism, which worshipped the calendar. The name is connected to the word for oak-tree, and they did venerate the oak and its mistletoe, and trees generally. They believed in metempsychosis ( the transmigration of souls) and what Christians call "magic."
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.

Pythagoras, the ancient Greek mathematician and philosopher, is not known to have had any children. He founded a philosophical and religious school in Croton, Italy, where he taught his followers about mathematics, music, and ethics. Pythagoras believed in the concept of metempsychosis, or the transmigration of the soul, and emphasized the importance of moral purity and intellectual pursuits.
Pythagoras' religious beliefs were associated with Pythagoreanism, a philosophical and religious movement he founded that focused on the idea of numbers and the soul's immortality. The followers of Pythagoreanism followed a strict code of conduct and believed in the transmigration of souls.
