Spiritual Musings - 16

Our astrological chart shows how our lives should be ideally rather than showing that how our lives would be?

Because in between this "should be" and "would be", we are standing with whole of our ego, egoistic desires and conditioning. We are not ready to surrender our ego and egoistic desires to follow the path shown by planetary positions in chart.

And when we are ready to follow our ego to walk a wrong path then we can't complain that things promised in chart never happened. Well, we never followed that path.

Universe wants to guide us to our best potential and purpose but it still respects our free will and doesn't interfere with it.

Understand this through a few examples -

1. Suppose I checked on Google Map about the path which I should take to reach High Court from my location. Google Map will give me the easiest and quickest available path to reach my destination but Google Map can't force me to take that path. I can choose to follow any other path as per my free will but then I can't complain that I didn't reach on time. That other path may have more traffic, bad roads or road blocks which may delay my progress. So, astrology can show you your right path but astrology can't force you to follow the same. Planets respect your free will.

2. Someone shouldn't jump from high rise buildings but if someone wants to jump then he can jump. No planets are coming to stop this person. But it will have its effects. This person can't say that now I am jumping but my bones shouldn't be broken. They will be broken as the person is going against nature.

3. Suppose a guy and a girl are madly in love with each other and they go to the best astrologer of the world to match their charts. That poor astrologer thinks that somehow they may not be happy in marriage and advises them so. Do you think they will listen to him?

So, charts are showing our ideal path which we should follow but it is our free will if we want to follow it or not and following any other path will have its repercussions which again is an indication from nature that you are on wrong path.

Hope this helps.
