Some of our New Age friends claim they can erase all of 

their karma and create whatever they desire.

No more relationship, family, money, or health problems. 

Sounds good!

Alas, years of empirical research convinces us that this is 

impossible.

If it were possible to create whatever you wanted at any 

time and erase your challenging karma, numerologists 

and astrologers would be unable to predict your future 

circumstances. Interpreted correctly, numerology and 

astrology charts consistently reflect your predestined 

life situations.

It sure would be nice to have a totally clean slate in life

and experience only what you consciously choose, but it

appears that nobody has the ability to skip the difficult

lessons.

A numerologist saying to a client, based on her charts, (with 

no knowledge of that person prior to the session), "...you fell 

deeply in love age 36 for the first time in your life..." and

the client saying, "...yes, it was wonderful, and it still

is..." supports the notion of fate and destiny, rather than

absolute free will, especially since that same consultant would

have identified the event in the charts before the client was

36.

As another example, some struggling actors "make it" and 

many don't. Although the "path" itself is oftentimes more 

important than the desireddestiny, expert numerologists

can accurately determine who is destined for fame, wealth,

or success and who is not.

Even the charts of so-called self-actualized people firmly 

indicate that they do not have free will to erase their

karma and create as they wish.However, being self-

actualized allows one to more easily accept situations

and forgive people, so they glide through life with more

ease than others.

Many feel it's more accurate to think of life on Earth as

the process of co-creating what is to be. A reasonable

theory, based on life between life research, is that we

all have complete free will as souls, but much of it can

only be exercised before we are born into this world.

Yes, you must take action at the right time and put one 

foot in front of the other to bring about fate while here 

on earth, but to expect to be able to consistently "create 

the life of your dreams," is unrealistic, unless of course 

your dreams are aligned with your destiny.

Many metaphysical practitioners promote such notions as 

"create your desired reality" and "erase your karma"

("anyone can do it!"). Unfortunately, their clients who

fail to reach goals mistakenly assume they didn't try

hard enough or that they didn't deserve to get what they

wanted, when in reality the goal may not have been part

of their highest path.

Instead of feeling like a failure because you didn't

"create" something you wanted, it's more effective to get

in touch with your individual fate and true earthy purpose.

In doing so, you more easily recognize your highest path

and apply free will more constructively. Then, when you

"go for it," you're much more likely to succeed because

you have time, destiny, and the Universe on your side.
