The Role Of Free Will In Psychic Readings

Free will is a common theme in psychic readings. People often wonder how much of their life is predetermined and how much they control their own future, destiny and happiness.

The truth is that our free will not only shapes our daily lives – it’s also at the core of who we are as spiritual beings on a human journey. Free will is inescapable in our lives. This is why it is a central theme in almost every spiritual, religious, and wisdom tradition.

Whether it’s the concept of karma in Hinduism and Buddhism, the moral responsibility to follow divine guidance in Christianity and Judaism, or the pursuit of virtue and inner peace in Stoicism and Taoism, the concept of free will has shaped our understanding of personal fulfillment, spirituality, and destiny since the dawn of humanity.

While interpretations of free will may vary, its presence in our lives is undeniable and determines how we experience life – unless, of course, one subscribes to an atheistic worldview that denies any higher power or spiritual framework for our existence. But even atheists must admit that their lives are also very much determined by their own choices and decisions.

We all have the inner power to shape our lives through our thoughts, beliefs, choices and actions. But with this freedom comes a great responsibility: karma. The ability to create our reality and shape our future has ripple effects that affect not only our own lives, but everything and everyone in the universe.

One of the great questions surrounding free will is the relationship between fate and personal freedom. Many spiritual beliefs hold that our lives unfold according to a divine plan or cosmic blueprint. But if everything is predestined, ordained by a higher power, and happens by divine design, why do we have the ability to make our own life choices at all? Why do we have free will if our lives are already set in stone?

I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road ~ Stephen Hawking

I like to think of free will as being similar to the relationship between a parent and a child. A wise parent allows the child to make mistakes so that the child can learn and grow. Free will gives us the same opportunity to grow as spiritual beings. Sure, some parts of our destiny may be fixed – lessons to learn and growth challenges to face – but how we handle these life experiences is where free will comes in.

Just as a parent sets limits but allows the child some freedom to figure things out, free will gives us room to make choices. The karma of our successes and failures, our good choices and our mistakes, ensures that we progress in our personal and spiritual growth. In other words, free will plus karma equals soul evolution!

Free Will And Karma

The concept of karma, which originally comes from ancient Indian philosophy, is the spiritual principle of “cause and effect” in which one’s actions determine one’s present life and future outcomes. This can be interpreted in many ways, but a common understanding is that karma operates within the framework of free will.

Free will is our ability to make our own decisions and determine our own actions, independent of external forces or a higher power. It is the cause of future results in our lives., while karma is the outcomes that result from our free will. Our choices and actions create the conditions for our future experiences. Karma is like planting seeds. The seeds (our actions) determine the fruits (our future experiences). So, while we have free will to choose our thoughts and actions, the consequences of those thoughts and actions are that they become our destiny.

Karma is a mechanism for personal and spiritual growth. It allows us to learn from our achievements and mistakes. It is like a cosmic balancing act. Good deeds lead to positive results, while negative deeds lead to negative consequences. It means that every action, no matter how small, has a ripple effect. This is similar to the “butterfly effect,” a metaphor that illustrates how small changes in a system can have large and unpredictable consequences.

The butterfly concept originated in a weather forecasting experiment in the 1960s, when a meteorologist named Edward Lorenz discovered that a tiny change in the initial conditions of a weather simulation could lead to drastically different weather patterns elsewhere. The idea is that a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil could trigger a tornado in Texas. While this is an oversimplification, it effectively conveys the idea that seemingly insignificant events can have far-reaching effects. It also illustrates the interconnectedness of everything in the universe.

In my readings I find that psychic clients don’t always realize that their current life situation, as well as their future, is shaped by a series of free will choices they have made over time.

In the same way that simple everyday actions like smiling at a stranger or skipping a workout can shape our lives, every thought we think and every choice we make contributes to our destiny and karmic path. That’s why authentic psychic readings usually focus on empowering people to take charge of their choices, rather than simply predicting fate or fortune over which they have no control.

Free will is always at play in our lives, and even the smallest actions can lead to significant changes and outcomes. A reputable ethical psychic will always offer guidance on how to achieve this, especially if your reading predicts a potential outcome that you do not want.

Free will is not the liberty to do whatever one likes, but the power of doing whatever one sees ought to be done, even in the very face of otherwise overwhelming impulse. There lies freedom, indeed ~ George Macdonald

Free Will And Psychic Reading

Free will is both a gift and a responsibility. Sure, there is some cosmic destiny or a divine plan at work in our lives, but we also have the power to make choices that shape our future. When we embrace free will instead of seeing ourselves as victims of fate, we can navigate life with more awareness and purpose, and step into our true spiritual potential.

In psychic readings, free will is very important because it sets the boundaries for what psychics can offer and how their clients can use that information. Psychics and mediums can tap into different energies and insights, but it’s the choices we make that really shape our lives. Understanding how free will interacts with karmic outcomes helps us see that psychic readings are meant to empower us to take charge of our life’s journey, not just play the role of a slave to fate.

At the heart of free will is your ability to make independent decisions, even when receiving a reading or spiritual guidance. A psychic may share possible outcomes, but they’re not set in stone – they’re just possible paths based on the energy and circumstances at the time of the reading.

Life is always changing, and the future can shift based on your choices, thoughts, and actions, as well as those of the people around you. That’s why ethical psychics often emphasize that you have the power to change your path. For example, if a reading reveals challenges in a relationship, you can choose to work through those issues or decide to move on and take your life in a new direction.

Free will means that psychic readings aren’t about determinism or fate. A psychic is more like a guide who offers insights into your situation, but the outcome is always in your hands. Readings are meant to shed light on what’s affecting you and help you make informed choices, not to control your destiny.

For anyone seeking guidance from psychics, understanding free will is an empowering tool. It reminds you that you’re an active participant in creating your reality, rather than just waiting for a predetermined future. A responsible psychic will always emphasize that the final decision is yours. This helps prevent dependency on the psychic for life decisions and encourages you to take ownership of your choices. Rather than presenting outcomes as inevitable, ethical psychics focus on offering insight and guidance into energies and possibilities, leaving it up to you to act on this information in whatever way feels right.

Free will is linked to our personal growth and soul evolution. Every choice we make in the face of challenges is an opportunity to learn, grow, and refine our path. Psychic readings serve as a tool for self-reflection and growth, guiding us to take responsibility for our lives while considering the spiritual insights we receive.

Because of free will, psychic readings are never just rigid predictions of a fixed future. They’re reflections of potential paths, shaped by our present choices. They empower us to take action, to own our choices, and to remember that while the spirit realm may offer insights, we are the ones in control of our destiny.
