In this post, we go over ideas about karmic recognition and how to know if your relationship is really special (in regards to a karmic relationship).
What is Karmic Recognition?
Karmic Recognition is a type of connection you have with a person who has played an impactful role in a previous life.
This is different than your typical closeness and similarities with your closest friends. Instead this is a rare connection where you feel as if you’ve always known the person.
When the manifestation of your soul (aka your personality) encounters certain people with specific traits, something inside you will constellate and give you feelings of resonance.
A simple example would be the following:
Let’s say as a child, you were taken aback by your Kindergarten teacher by feelings of safety and compassion. Your unconscious mind then decided to associate subtle behaviors your teacher had with these traits.
Then in adulthood, you come across another rare person of exceptional compassion. You may recognize this person before you even talked to them.
This is because your unconscious mind has developed an association that would cause resonance.
The idea of karmic recognition aligns with this line of thinking, except you are not limited to this lifetime. This resonance instead extends from previous lifetimes.
The same way people look at politicians and authority figures for answers. There has been an ancient association embedded to the human psyche that is common across the human species.
It just so happens that you are particularly in touch with whatever this person symbolizes from a different line of life.
How To Detect These Positive Special Connections via Karmic Recognition
The easiest way to recognize a karmic connection is from a sense of resonance they activate within you. This happens in the following ways:
A feeling of deep peace. When you interact with this person, you can feel something in the air. They will share unique similarities with you; a sign of a kindred spirit. Since you know yourself very well, you can recognize that this person is like you and you’ll feel more at peace.
Similarities and differences. The similarities you have will be the most important you can ask for. This includes worldview and visions of the future. Your shares aspirations and ideas will, at the very least, indicate to you whether you both are on the same level of consciousness.
You both will feel like you are both pieces of the same puzzle and fit together. And the differences between the two of you will enrich you both beneficially.
Conversations that can go on forever. You will find that your conversations unfold and blossom effortlessly. There is little to no misunderstandings because you both “see” each other.
Conflict is easily made into growth-opportunities. You both easily find understanding and harmony when conflict arises between you two. Remember that conflict is not “bad”. It is evidence that you both have a sense of self-worth and a vision you want to protect.
Who Will You Have Karmic Recognition With?
You’ll know it when it happens.
That said, meeting a person you can karmically recognize is very much out of your control.
The next person you recognize can be a family member, stranger, neighbor, whoever.
Let’s just say that when the stars align, you will feel something constellate in your inner world. The manifestation of the recognition and resonance you feel can be mentally/physically/emotionally positive or negative
Warning for Negative Karmic Recognition
The purpose of a karmic connection is to help us in our personal development. They pave the way for lessons, motivations, direction, and so on.
A positive resonance is easy to recognize. The only two real manifestations would be:
- Friendly-competition that benefits more than themselves (not “frenemies”)
- The desire to empower you, strengthen and/or expand your options in life, as opposed to reducing it
Sometimes you will recognize someone who is bad for you, but your “broken instincts” make you chase this person.
In this case, your karmic recognition is trying to make you aware of a life lesson you must learn, to teach to others.
This is why we fall for the predatory charm of more selfish and toxic personalities.
It isn’t until you free yourself from this karma that you’ve inherited that you will slowly replace these draining people with those who are more empowering.
You do this by developing an earned secure attachment style.
By earning a secure attachment style you are becoming mature in the types of relationships you have.
The two signs that you have an insecure attachment style is that you tend to pursue people who are:
- Whimsical, impulsive, and unpredictable
- Controlling, oppressive, overly jealous
Some of you will read those two bullet points and tell yourselves that you lowkey like those toxic kinds of relationships.
If that’s you, here are some very important insights you will understand at some point:
- Relearning old lessons is very expensive, both materially and spiritually
- An empty life is one where you never learn your lesson; empty experiences (you’re not really living)
When you’re ready to start having happy and healthy relationships, you’ll find the relationships you truly deserve.
