Do Money Problems Derive From a Past Life in Which You Squandered Resources?
Today I receive an email from my “friend in Boston” who humorously mused that her present financial problems probably originated in a lifetime in which she was rich but did not use her abundance wisely. Her statement reminded me of one of my past lives that surfaced in a dream.
In this past lifetime, I had been a very wealthy woman. I was also lovely, young and had three small children. When my husband had married me, part of the arrangement had included vast tracts of land as part of my dowry from my father. My husband traveled the world in four-masted schooners on his business ventures. He had “a girl in every port.” I felt so lonely and unloved. This life occurred during feudal times in France. I used to look out the window of our estate at one of our peasants gathering wood for his fire in our forest. I would think that he had to work so hard just to keep warm that he would never have the time to be unfaithful to his wife. I actually wished to be poor.
I relate this story to show that troubles in this life may not necessarily be the result of “just retribution” for misuse of abundance. We may have actually wished for the condition we presently find ourselves in.
The lesson is: Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!
