Forms: 1500s metem su cossis (irregular), 1600s metampsycosis, 1600s metempsuchosis, 1600s metemseuchosis, 1600s metemsychosis, 1600s metemsycosis, 1600s–1700s metempsicosis, 1600s–1700s metempsycosis, 1600s– metempsychosis, 1900s– metampsychosis (irregular); also Scottish pre-1700 metempsichosis.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin metempsychosis.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin metempsychosis (early 3rd cent. in Tertullian) < Hellenistic Greek μετεμψύχωσις < ancient Greek μετα- meta- prefix + ἐν in (see en- prefix²) + ψuχή psyche n. + -ωσις -osis suffix. Compare Middle French métempsychosis (1564 in Rabelais).In quot. 1559 at sense 1 the form metempsychosin renders the Latin accusative form in the passage translated. Formerly often stressed metemˈpsychosis (compare metamorphosis n.). N.E.D. (1906), agreeing with other sources of the same period, gives the pronunciation as (mete:mpsikō^u·sis) /mɛˌtɛmpsɪˈkəʊsɪs/. The subsequent change is probably mostly due to the influence of the more familiar psychosis n.

1. Transmigration of the soul, passage of the soul from one body to another; esp. (chiefly in Pythagoreanism and certain Eastern religions) the transmigration of the soul of a human being or animal at or after death into a new body of the same or a different species.
