What is karma? How do you make karma and how do you balance it? What if you’re done with your karma and your current life circumstances are a test you chose for yourself before you took incarnation? How can you tell? Read on. It’s complicated.
What is karma?
People generate negative karma by going against the Maker’s law. The law is complex, but here is the simplest way you can look at it. Life is sacred—your own and other people’s. If you act in a way that does not honor the sacredness of life in yourself or others, you make karma. Karma is the energy you send out with your actions, inactions, thoughts, and intentions. That energy always returns to you.
If you are a soul on the path of light, you seek to neutralize the negative energy you have sent out throughout all of your lives in whatever form the energy went out. If you are a soul on the path of darkness, the dark energies keep changing your light into darkness, and you can continue doing anything you like, but you have to steal the light of others in order to survive. Dark souls don’t pay the price of karma unless they turn back toward the light. My guides discuss this in depth in my upcoming book, The Secrets of the Light, which is set to come out by the end of 2024. However, let’s focus here on the journey of the souls of light who are paying the price of light and who have chosen to balance their negative karma.
Three ways we make negative karma
1. Wrong actions
This is what people most often think of when the subject of karma comes up. Killing someone results in the heaviest karma. If you kill as a soldier in a war, the karma won’t be as bad. Self-defense is also a different matter, but premeditated murder carries the highest karma. I killed two people in a previous life. I wasn’t acting alone and I had good reason, so those details lessened the price I had to pay. In the life after that, I was born a girl into a nomadic desert tribe where the men treated the cattle better than they treated the women. I successfully atoned for the previous life’s actions through this 60-year life of constant work and hardship.
Suicide is another action of killing and you will have to return to the same circumstances in another life and choose to live through it all to balance that karma. Dolores Cannon talked about this, too, but I know the truth of it firsthand. In one previous life, I committed suicide at the age of 15 after years of torture. I was allowed to start atoning for the suicide during my subsequent lives through persistent illnesses, and in this life, the same man reincarnated to provide me with similar life circumstances. I had to choose to live through it for the first 49 years of this life to balance most of that karma of suicide. At least I didn’t have to do it in 15 inhumanely torturous years. Grace is real.
I chose the circumstances of the life where I committed suicide because I was a lightworker who wanted to evolve and also mitigate the darkness of the individual who abused me. All souls of light on the planet have done this, so your difficult life circumstances and the abuse you have suffered in your current life may not have come about because of anything you did to someone else, but because you wanted to evolve and bring more light into a dark world.
The price you have to pay for raping or abusing people might take many forms. You might have to be a victim of rape and abuse. You might work with rape victims and help them in some way. If you steal, you might have to be a victim of theft or financially support your previous victim in one of your subsequent lives. The ways of balancing karma are many, and I have found through my own experiences and my work as a Quantum Healing Hypnosis TechniqueSM practitioner that the karma you generate in one life is usually paid in the following lives, not that same one.
2. Not taking action when you should
If you are a member of a group of people who are watching as someone beats up/rapes/tortures/abuses someone else, you will incur karma, even if you don’t actively take part in the victimization. One way to pay the price for inaction would be to become the victim in a subsequent life and not get any help from the people around you.
If you are in a difficult life situation or a bad relationship and you fail to leave, you may have to face a similar situation in a future life so you learn to advocate for yourself and evolve as a soul. You could be in that situation to develop the will to take action and leave.
Matt Kahn, one of my favorite spiritual teachers, offered a teaching on soul contracts about nine years ago that helped me break free of a restrictive life situation. If any type of abuse shows up in any relationship, that soul contract becomes null and void, he said in a YouTube video I watched. So, that’s one way spirit works to bring you messages. What he said really hit home for me. The life circumstances I was in were karmic and I had to go through them. As soon as I heard that teaching, I knew within myself that I was free to take action to leave that situation behind.
3. Thoughts and intentions
Putting a curse on somebody is never advisable. You will pay for it somehow. Even though you are not actively doing anything physically to hurt someone, the energies you put in play can cause harm, even if it’s only through sticking needles into dolls or repetitively wishing something bad would happen to another person. Life is all about energy. The energy you expend will always come back to you in some form.
Forgiveness
If someone kills you or hurts you and you die with resentment toward that person, that results in karmic entanglement. The bigger the resentment and the desire to get even, the worse the karma will be. This is the cycle of karma that most of the world is caught up in. The men who victimize women may come back as women in their next lives and the men who victimize them are the women they themselves victimized as men in their previous lives. The roles are reversed again and again until the cycle is broken. The fastest way to break any karmic cycle is through forgiveness.
You don’t have to forgive anyone for the actions they took, but you have to release that person from your revenge. If you want to take revenge on someone or you actively wish them harm because of what they did, those desires alone will generate karmic entanglement. The Maker’s law will prevail, no matter what. The people who wrong you will always get their comeuppance. You may never see it happen, but the law is the law, and the Maker’s law is ironclad whereas human justice often fails.
World karma and evolutionary testing
All souls of light have come to this planet for the purpose of raising its vibration to free it of the dark elements that have had the run of the place since the very beginning. Sure, light souls have made karma, too, but the biggest chunk of karma for many lightworkers may be the world karma they have agreed to shoulder and transmute. The balancing of world karma has come in the form of suffering without cause. We’ve all been crucified in various ways throughout our long sojourn of hundreds of lifetimes on Earth. Jesus may have died for our sins, i.e., a small portion of world karma, but we still have to be responsible for our own sins/karma and the world karma we have agreed to balance.
In addition, our souls seek to be tested to further our evolution in every lifetime. The human conundrum is, of course, that we have no memory of what we planned for ourselves before we took incarnation. Our human selves have to contend with the circumstances and testing without remembering we chose everything beforehand.
How we balance karma: A summary
Karma is not transmuted by doing mantras or reciting prayers. They may raise your vibration and help you deal with your karma, but they don’t erase your karma. You balance your karma through living and surviving.
Your karma are the circumstances you are born into. Your karma are your parents, your family members, and other important people in your life, the psychological patterns they stamp on you, and the abuse you suffer in their hands. Your karma is the place you grow up in, your friends, your schools, your teachers, and the educational opportunities you are given. Your karma is the person you marry. Your karma are your children. If you killed someone in a past life, one of the ways you can pay is having that person become your child and you have to provide and take care of that child. Sometimes your children have been with you in many past lives, and sometimes they’ve been your parents or other relatives, too, and there are issues and psychological patterns you have to resolve with them.
Your karma is the people you meet and how you deal with every situation you have to deal with. It’s the way you make your living and the coworkers you have and the bosses you have to please. It’s the way you manage your relationships and break up with your spouse. It’s the way you settle the divorce and custody. It’s the way you have to or don’t have to take care of your parents when they grow old.
If you survive everything life throws at you and you learn and grow from everything, congratulations, you have balanced your karma and passed your tests! As souls of light get older, they can become free of their karma. They can discover new ways of living the rest of their lives in happier circumstances and they can have more positive outlooks than during their active karma-bearing years.
The volunteers and karma-free souls
As Dolores Cannon wrote in her book The Three Waves of Volunteers and the New Earth, some souls who are incarnated on the planet now have come here straight from the Source to help raise the Earth into the fifth dimension. They have no karma, and the challenges they face have come about only because they have wanted to evolve and to bring more light here.
It’s possible you may be a volunteer or a soul of light who has balanced their karma and is on the planet now only to evolve further and help raise up the Earth. It’s hard to know for sure if you fall into either one of these categories, but I have found that often those people will start getting clear messages from their spirit guides who will help them understand their situations. A QHHT® or some other kind of spirit journey session may also help shed light on where the soul stands vis-à-vis their karma and evolution.
You may visit family during the coming holidays. Seeing the people you may have had conflicts with can generate unpleasant words or situations. Dysfunctional family dynamics may trigger you in ways you might find unpleasant, but please remember that all hardships you go through will either balance karma and/or make you grow on your evolutionary path.
Earth is a hard place to live, but we are getting close to the final jump to the fifth dimension, which is set to happen after the next four years. From now until then, time will accelerate even more, and that also means plenty of opportunities to balance karma and evolve more quickly. So, focus on the light, do good where you can, and be present for any emotion that arises, love yourself, and release the feelings of wanting to take revenge on anyone who has wronged you. Ask for help. Your guides and your highest self are always there.
To learn more about QHHT® and the jump to 5D, you can read my book From Old to New Earth: Exploring Planetary Changes Through QHHT®. If you are within driving distance of Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, you can book a free discovery call with me for a session, or find a practitioner in your area.
