With the cycle of lessons comes Free Will. Free Will is the Power of Choice God blessed each and every one of us with before and after incarnating into the Physical World. Each soul has been given the opportunity to make a tentative blueprint of their paths for their up and coming life.

The purpose in this is to learn lessons, repay karmic debt and contribute to God’s universal agenda. To be honest, there isn’t a soul on Earth who can say exactly what that agenda is. Only God knows, but keep in mind that everything we accomplish in our lives is a pertinent contribution to the universal plan.

Understand that not every event is set in stone, just because it was pre-determined by the blueprint. It was created as a tentative plan before incarnation. Depending on the position you are in life, the Physical Self may bypass certain options pre-determined on the path. If you do pass an option, please believe it wasn’t your ONLY option. You may have had some karmic lessons to complete before entering the next phase in life. If you choose to skip over a karmic event and it still has to be dealt with, the option will be presented in a different way and time.

Also, we were blessed with the opportunity to manifest certain areas of our lives. Manifesting is NOT a form of manipulation and if done correctly, a way of pulling in the signs for more positive events with undeniable clarity. If you are trying to attract a new job, for example, by speaking it into being you’re telling Spirit what it is you’re looking for. In turn, you will be lead to the various options in effort to attain what it is you’re trying to accomplish. Manifesting IS NOT MAGIC. If you say you want something, you still have to work for it like everyone else. Once in a while you may receive a gift if you are trying to manifest a material item, but most of the time, you’ll just be lead to the store where it’s displayed cheapest.

You absolutely can NOT manifest someone to love you or make decisions to suit your "needs". God does NOT allow us to control another people’s Free Will. You are allowed to creatively visualize your doors open to the most positive situations or events to approach the path.

Your Higher Self:
"There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are all crew." - Marshall McLuhan

Not only does God have an agenda, but each individual soul does as well. Keep in mind that we don’t work FOR God and Spirit, we work WITH them. Your Higher Self is your soul or spirit, as some would prefer to call it. The Higher Self is connected to the physical body by a thin, silver colored umbilical cord that remains invisible to the physical eye. It is connected until one reaches their final destination and crosses over to the Other Side. The cord can been seen clairvoyantly or during astral travel, depending on how in tune you are with your Higher Self at that moment in time.

The Higher Self has full access to the blueprint created (with God and Spirit) before incarnation at all times, however, the Physical Self has the power of choice to bypass any of the doors leading to a particular path. The reason for this is because not only does your Higher Self have free will, but the Physical Self was blessed with it as well. .

When we apply logic to a situation instead of tapping into our Higher Self, we tend to utilize our fear and insecurities to lead us in a particular direction. Just because your Physical Self made a decision that wasn’t based upon the blueprint, does NOT mean it was the wrong choice. Your Higher Self will present the lesson for that event in another form on a different path; thus allowing the soul to complete the objective, regardless of which choices one’s Physical Self has made.

Spirit Guides & Free Will:
Your guides, like your Higher Self, have full access to the tentative blueprint created before incarnation. They work together in order to help keep the Physical Self on the path best suited for the next progression in life. Keep in mind that Spirit can’t MAKE things happen, nor can they force you to make a decision. The signs will be presented to you accordingly, but it’s your choice whether or not to acknowledge them and travel in that direction.

Yes, Spirit does have an eye on the blueprint; however, they do not give your Physical Self access to all the information, just bits and pieces. The reason for this is simple: there would be no point to life if you knew every single detail of all the options out there for you. For most people, Spirit’s preference is only allowing a certain amount of information regarding an up and coming event to be known, or none at all.

Spirit is NEVER allowed to step in the way of your power of choice. Most of the time, one’s Free Will overrides Spirit’s notions for direction, which often leads to a rather harsh, but awesome lesson. That is the main objective in life anyway. If you were constantly using fear, insecurity or manipulation as your main source of knowledge and action, then Spirit wouldn’t be able to crack the looking glass anyway. We suggest you work on keeping an open and clear mind while trying to utilize your Free Will.

Trial, Error and Trying Again:
Like I said previously, the main point to life is learning. It’s learning to become one with your Higher Self and contributing to the collective consciousness God has created. It’s to live graciously in God’s love and light with the knowledge attained from each lifetime spent on Earth.

Every lifetime has helped your soul evolve through trial and error. Each time you have made a decision, there has always been a consequence, whether it was positive or negative. If the choice made returned a negative event, there was a lesson involved. After every lesson came the opportunity to try again and make the changes necessary to complete the cycle and regain karmic balance. Of course the choice we make do affect other people. That’s why it’s always best to make decisions for you, but with good intent. If you choose to live in a self-absorbed bubble; never doing anything humanitarian-like, you will attract plenty of negative events in that lifetime. You will also create more karmic debt that will have to be taken care of in the next lifetime.

It’s always nice to go out of your way for other people, but keep in mind that it’s not healthy to neglect yourself. Our suggestion is to stay true to you, have a charitable heart and be open to all the possibilities available in this lifetime.
