That is how a karmic relationship works

The type of relationship that we are in with our karmic soul mate seems to provide some insight into the nature of the karmic debt, or rather how deep rooted the conflict might be or how far it might go back

This is often not nearly as ominous as it sounds, as sometimes a karmic debt can be paid in a matter of seconds in a chance encounter on the street. Other times we spend an entire lifetime, or even many lifetimes, with this person working on making better (more loving) choices with each other.

Karmic mates are the soul mates that will force us to do the most work on ourselves. They will make us confront the deepest, darkest, hidden corners of ourselves. We will, through our dealings with our karmic soul mates, face our fears, true motivations and innermost desires. These particular soul mates give us an opportunity to better ourselves spiritually, by confronting situations that will be unpleasant or difficult. The challenge here is to change the way that we act or react to these people in our lives. The additional test comes from the fact that these people change roles and dynamics with us over the course of lifetimes to present these lessons in different ways.

The nature of the challenge is somewhat different if your karmic soul mate is your parent versus your neighbor down the street.

If we have left these various life encounters with others in a way that we (or they) still regret, we will probably encounter them again. Hopefully this encounter takes place in this life, because if it is in the next one, it will probably be a relationship of a deeper sort that will force us to work it out. What that means is that the ex-girlfriend that you treated badly before dumping her ten years ago could possibly come back as your mother in the next life. But then, you will have the full advantage of proximity and intimacy as you work on coming to terms with your true and inner feelings for her, as well as what she makes you feel deep down inside about yourself.

There are the karmic soul mate relationships that we are more deeply entrenched into, due to proximity and circumstance that provide these opportunities for mutual forgiveness and growth on a much deeper level. These interactions give us the chance to “fast track” this learning process as we seek (usually subconsciously) to lighten our heavy karmic load that we are bringing with us from one life to the next.

More than likely, someone that you were born into a family with will force you to confront the nature of the relationship more readily than you would have to with someone that you can more easily evict from your life

The most intense, and therefore possibly fraught with the heaviest karma, is when we have a romantic relationship with this type of soul mate. Dating, or even marrying our karmic soul mates Birmania mujeres en los Estados Unidos can be one of the most difficult of the soul mate encounters. Yet, upon resolving karma properly with them can be an incredibly liberating experience that can lead to tremendous spiritual growth.

Some karmic soul mate relationships, however, are short term by nature. The annoying woman at the supermarket, the car salesman who ripped you off, the waitress that spilled coffee in your lap, and even your boss at Burger King when you were 17 (a real one of mine) are all potential karmic soul mates. These are, more than likely, not incredibly deep-rooted or ancient beefs and probably can be worked out relatively quickly. By working on being conscious of how kind and loving you are to others around you, you may be inadvertently resolving karma on a daily basis with multiple soul mates. These situations are also very difficult to master, however, as we tend to not focus as much on the people that we might perceive as less “important” or “relevant”.
