Dear Rad,
There is something within the evolutionary process that I really struggle to understand, which is the phenomena of recreating traumatic circumstances pertaining to a life or lives preceding the current one.
There are so many instances where traumatic life events come as an unfortunate result of trying to do the right thing.
In my mind, if a soul faces adversity and severe trauma, while doing everything in their power to act with courage and integrity, this should warrant a release from the trauma. Yet if I understand it correctly the soul will recreate those conditions in future life in order to resolve what wasn’t resolved originally.
A prime example that comes to mind is Alexaei Navalnay. This man had a courage and strength that I can hardly fathom possessing, let alone applying. He endured unspeakable torture, abuse, injustice, and loss of life because he was so committed to doing the right thing, speaking truths, inspiring positive hope, and accepting brutal consequences that he knew would potentially get him assasinated. To me, I would think this grand demonstration of courage and suffering would warrant a RELEASE from having to experience anything like this to happen again. Yet, since we pick up where we left off, the traumatic dynamic will repeat, in theory to induce the healing.
Why is it that a soul’s good deeds and efforts well executed don’t by themselves bring closure to the pain? What is the goal? Are we supposed to relive it and relive it until x circumstance becomes such a numbed, dull pain that it ceases to hurt or cause distress anymore? Another way of asking the question, what has to happen to stop the repetitive cycle?
Thank you sincerely for any insight.
God Bless,
Stacie
I suppose I may have answered my own question. For some reason this always happens after I articulate a question.
I think the answer is that the soul repeats the trauma, not for the sheer sake of making itself keep going through the trauma, but because the intention that resulted in the trauma did not get fulfilled. So as long as there is a pending need to fulfill the original intention, the circumstances which can involve recreation of prior trauma will continue until the soul is satisfied with the result it achieves.
If my understanding isn’t quite there, or if you have any additional thoughts to add, I’d be so thankful for it.
Thank you so much.
God Bless

The misterious ways of karma-ego-grace and intentions are so unfathomable that makes this a truly difficult questioning of yours. I wonder if EA has an answer... There is one thing I can see on what you said that shed light Stacie, which is completing things. As we leave open windows, things cannot move forward.
I’m glad you brought up Jesus, Nerissa, because this is another key example of consciously participating in circumstances of trauma for a greater good. I’m by no means answering for Rad because I also anticipate his answer, but I feel at his stage of evolution, his oneness with God, that the trauma inflicted upon him was meant by design to show us how ultimate devotion is applied. The disciple Peter saw it coming and tried to warn Jesusand wanted to stop/avoid it, and Jesus basically told him that avoiding his destiny was Satan’s plan, not God’s. I still have trouble understanding why it had to go like that, so I guess I’m not too different from Peter in wondering why the trauma was necessary. Perhaps to give us courage, or a fundamental example of how to surrender to things we don’t understand. It’s a fine line between embracing this kind of thing without falling into distorted masochism. This question is a toughie.
Uranus/Awuarius/11th house is all about objectification. To separate yourself, and stand back from immediate circumstances to percieve the underlying facts.
I think the bottom line of Jesus’s mission was to put up a mirror for humanity so that we can see what we’re doing. Again though, I look forward to Rad’s thoughts and understanding.
Another thing I wanted to comment on is Uranus’ correlation to the subconscious. We can come into any life without the conscious ego remembering past trauma in detail. We can find ourselves enveloped in past life memory, where we can’t easily connect the dots with what came before. It’s a human excercise of increasing our awareness and getting it right in our souls.
Oops, for some reason I didn’t see Rad’s answers until now. This platform is not the most user-friendly. Replies get hidden or mixed up sometimes.
It’s me again. Sorry my mind is going a zillion miles a minute because I want to understand this so much. I’m trying not to just be a passive questioner, but to actively think through the information I’m given to work with.
I think I understand something new about why it would be a reflection of imperfection to ask God to take the cup from oneself, resulting from the purpose one consciously enters, whether for good intent or bad.
Initially I couldn’t wrap my head around the consequences that fell upon Christ because his mission was so non-violent, but I realize at that stage of evolution, third stage spiritual, there is a knowledge of what will come, and when one is so defined by God’s will, you do it no matter what. If you take up the cause, knowing what will or could happen, I suppose you have to be prepared to experience and FEEL what those resulting consequences could be. So to beg for any kind of relief from the actual consequences as they occur, fair or unfair, is part of the territory of completing the purpose that was set out for. This is a standard of conduct that goes so far above my head but I think in part this naivety reflects my early stage of spiritual evolution, even though it effects me just the same.
I appreciate exploring these questions because I think it is helpful to try and integrate this kind of knowledge as a preparatory measure, even if the moment my time comes to learn from my own trauma happens now, or tomorrow, or when I become in great time as far along as Christ.
If there is anything more to add regarding Jesus and his imperfection, I want it. It’s like I said earlier, with all the anti-Christ energy teeming in our human culture, this is a good time to have such discussions and increase our understanding to perhaps beyond what it has been before.
Thank you, Stacie 🙏
Hi Nerissa, I’ve appreciated your questions as well. Thank you for them!
You were close! I’m a 4th house pluto in Libra with it’s ruler venus conjunct Neptune and the NN in the 6th/sagg. Moon/jupiter in pisces. ‘Faith in action’ or karma yoga is key for types like us! Grateful again for your contributions.
God bless ❤️
