how to tell if it’s karmic
one of the questions I get most often in my work is - how do I know if it’s a 3d/human level block, or a karmic contract? a great example of this would be twin flames. i can’t tell you how often i see people hiding behind the idea of a ‘twin flame’ as a way to justify repeating traumatic experiences from childhood. rather than acknowledging the ways this person serves their HUMAN/3D desire to complete trauma experienced early in life, they justify the behavior as a karmic contract that needs to be resolved.
by trying to address the behavior on a karmic level rather than dealing with the 3d/human blocks, the person who justifies staying in a harmful relationship to ‘resolve karma’ is essentially blocking their progress. any higher-density contract/dynamic (ie karmic) can only be fully resolved when the HUMAN/3D system is capable of receiving the change. meaning: even if the karmic contract is resolved, it cannot express in 3d as resolved when it is encountering unprocessed emotions and traumatic experiences being held in the 3d body.
since as #bornawakes® we work top-down, we often access/recognize the ENERGETICS of a situation before we can identify the ways we have 3d work to do. we recognize someone as a twin flame and that there is karma there, before we can see why our human self is still drawn to this experience. since as #bornawakes® we’re here more to complete karma than do anything else it can be an alluring trap to stay on the karmic level and ignore what’s happening to our human self.
here’s my suggestion: if you’re unsure whether it’s karmic or 3d, it’s probably both. instead of debating with yourself (which is just another handy trick for staying out of the emotions of the situation), start with whichever one you feel more connected to. as a #bornawake® that’s probably the karma.
our work as #bornawakes® is about harmonizing and ultimately INTEGRATING these different densities we have access to. the more karma we complete, the more dynamics we resolve, the more we are able to pull forward the RELEVANT aspects of these densities, so that they can be expressed through our 3d/human selves. with this in mind, every time you are dealing with a trigger/situation such as the twin flame example above, it’s helpful to think: ok. this is an opportunity to complete what’s no longer serving me, so that i can express more of the absolute and the higher densities through myself. that is my role for the collective as a #bornawake®, and it helps me personally too.
so - instead of getting lost in the debate of which one it is, karmic or 3d? start by resolving the karma (there’s a meditation for that in the portal, just sayin’)... but don’t stop there! each time you work through a layer of karma with this person/situation, immediately apply the lessons/mastery to THIS lifetime!
going back to the twin flame example: let’s say when working on the karma of the situation, you are shown a past life where you and your twin flame were secret lovers in the army. as gay men, you were unable to be together publicly and so you felt that you could never be with the one you loved. you release the grief and shame of this from the past life, but you’re still stumped as to what you were learning. maybe what true love is, even if you can’t be together?
now in this lifetime, you meet your twin flame but they are in a serious relationship and once again - you cannot be together. you enter into a romance with them despite your misgivings and are left feeling that the relationship is fated and doomed. it’s easy to spot the parallels, so it’s tempting to assume that once the karma is resolved the 3d situation will be too. right? as above so below?
sorry - there’s a but! chances are that this twin flame situation also mirrors dynamics from your childhood. perhaps one of your caregivers was unfaithful, or there was a pattern of feeling ignored, unimportant, rejected by those you loved. maybe a feeling that your caregivers chose work, or romantic partners - over you. that you are never chosen.
can you see how resolving the karma would not be enough to truly move beyond this situation - and why the mastery of true love, cannot truly be integrated and expressed through your 3d being until the childhood sh*t is resolved too?
that’s why the next task is to look for what’s stopping you from accessing true love in THIS lifetime. once the karmic piece is done, do the work to pull it forward. into the now.
if you’re a member of the portal i suggest using ‘connect to inner child’ as well as the ‘release’ section to move through relevant human/3d level gunk. :)
