Before the student began her work with me, she had gone to a spiritual retreat facilitated by a couple. She had felt drawn to them so after the initial program she attended a few more. She’d felt a strong connection to the male facilitator and later learned, from me, that they had karmic connections.  

She has unconsciously felt the need to somehow validate herself through the facilitator. He’d been a teacher in a past life, probably more than once and she had been a star pupil.

I began a reading to find past karma and future pending karmic agreements, as well as pictures, to remove so the student could move forward into her own work without “looking over her shoulder” for approval from this former teacher. 

I found a picture of the student in another life. She was a female between the age of 25 and 40. The house wasn’t rustic, but may have been early-mid 20th century. She was looking yearningly out of a window. Her left leg was encased in a concrete cast. The cast was a metaphor for the anchoring, the heavy weight of karmic obligation she felt that held her to this place. She was stuck, but her gazing out of the window showed that she yearned to be free of this heavy influence the karma had on her.  The picture, in this case, was an analogy to the connection she felt in her current lifetime to the male facilitator. 

About 50 feet behind the student’s karmic predecessor were some older people who seemed disabled or physically or mentally infirm. Again, this image was an analogy because of the long distance these people were apart from her. They were from earlier lifetimes but still had a karmic influence on her. 

I read the image to mean that the student’s predecessor was caring for these older people and felt obliged to do it. She felt weighed down with the responsibility and yearned to be free of it to do her own thing. The dichotomy was that if she stayed she was unable to do her own work and if she left, she felt like she was not fulfilling an obligation. There was guilt involved.

This old image related to her current situation where she longed to do her own work for her own sense of validation, but felt like she was abandoning her former teacher and the validation and attention she had learned to rely on to boost her and that she thought she needed. 

I removed the pending agreements and any past karma with the people I saw in her picture.  The student was now free of them and the obligation she felt as well as from the male facilitator in her current lifetime. She was free to go on her own path even if it meant abandoning him. 

I saw campaign buttons for the facilitator in the student’s heart chakra. They signified how the student had built up the facilitator in this lifetime and past ones as her focus for what she learned and for her own sense of validation. After the picture, pending agreements and past karma were removed, the buttons could be removed. They had been sucking the life-force out of the student’s heart chakra. Old, desiccated blood came out of the pin prick spots, metaphorically.  It represented an old affiliation which had once been alive, but was now old and useless. 

The student could now move forward to do her own exploring and to gain her own sense of validation. 

The student is working to hone this karma removal work. She is working to pinpoint the dichotomy that has initiated the karma in the first place so it can be removed entirely and properly.

The method for the actual removal will be shared in this blog. The student is working to fully understand it and be able to put it into writing in a clear manner.
