As with everything in reality, and in life, is all good. We are
never being punished for anything. That is a very misguided
Western notion. Karma is simply the effects of our actions. When
our actions are aligned with truths, and the willingness to
commit to facing it, the results are sweet. When our actions are
aligned with negative tendencies, those negative results also
happen.
The motion of the planets simply show which energies within us
are becoming activated and awakened. Planetary energies, and the
universe itself, is not something "out there" -- it is something
"in here". As above, so below. The universe is what formed us -
and continues to form us all the time. Understanding what those
energies are is what astronumerology shows.
