“Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and wondered why you are here?…There are many different answers to that question as each soul has a different motive for taking on a body, but the easy and consistent answer is: to learn through a physical experience.”  –Gratitude + Forgiveness x (LOVE) = Happiness, by Aimee Mosco and Donald L. Ferguson, page 3.

“Karma” is often mistakenly viewed as a simplistic Universal mechanism which delivers retribution for a person’s bad behavior or rewards a person for good behavior. While both brutal punishment and sweet reward result from the existence of karma, neither represent the primary spiritual objective of the mechanism itself.

Karma is a tool that helps to keep balance in the Universe. It’s a safety valve that ensures each human being stays centered on his soul path and learns what he is meant to learn. When a person participates in an event that creates an imbalance of energy flow, whether that person is taking advantage of someone else or giving of herself in excess of what she is receiving, the Universe delivers energy to balance that event. The reason: any time there is an imbalanced exchange between two beings, it is a signal that there is something to learn.

The Universe is structured to maintain its own equilibrium; therefore, it will support the highest degree of human learning by default.

Most of us do not have the ability to see energy flow so it can be difficult to know when the balance is disrupted. Also, we don’t know what we don’t know, so it can be challenging to identify when there is more for us to learn in association with a particular exchange or experience. Enter karma. Karma keeps track of imbalance for us and comes back around to deliver different opportunities for growth. Only when we reach a level of awareness that has us recognize imbalance do we begin to police ourselves for the sake of divine Universal order.

As the new era rapidly approaches, energy vibrations are increasing, which means energy is also flowing faster. Therefore, each human being is being called to restore order in his or her own Universe with haste to move into an enlightened learning space with a clean slate. The Universe at large is currently consolidating karmic debt and feverishly sending out notices so we can each participate more consciously in creating this balance to ring in the new era properly. Keep this in mind as you navigate what may feel like unjust discomfort. Look for the lesson in everything and give thanks to the Universe for supporting your highest degree of growth.
