Karmic Law

The Law of Karma is simple enough to understand.
It goes by many names: Karmic Law, Three-Fold Law, Law of Three-Fold Return,
etc. There are many common phrases which use its application such as: "You
reap what you sow," "What goes around, comes around," etc. Its principles
are very basic, yet wide. Those of you who may have seen the movie The
Craft have heard it stated by the shopkeeper in the movie. This was
one of few truths found in the movie.
The Karmic Law states that any action you take which
involves interaction with other life forms sends out a certain type of energy.
This applies to all interactions, not just physical or magickal. This energy
has either positive or negative alignment, depending on what action you
took against that other life form and what the result of that action was.
If you do a good deed for someone or it results in good fortune, this sends
out positive karma. However, if you do something bad to someone, the result
is negative karma. This energy makes its way into the universe, destined
to return to you three times as powerful as it was when it left you. If
you have excessive bad karma returning to you, the result will be horrible
misfortune for you. However, if you're a very generous person and doing
good things is a habit of yours, then fortune in its purest form will be
with you.
Be warned! Everything that you do which causes pain
or suffering to another will return to you times three, regardless of whether
or not that person deserved what he/she got. If someone is picking on you
in school and you give him a fist in the face. The bully probably did deserve
it, but the pain you caused will return to you as well. I'm not telling
you not to stand up for yourself! By all means, do it! What I will say
is that your karma works anyway you want it to depending on your actions.
The karma of that punch will come back, but you can easily cancel it out
with a few good deeds. Maybe an apology for the punch would be a great
start even if he didn't deserve one. You have to learn how to judge for
yourself whether or not the consequences of your actions will outweigh
the benefit. It's true that there will be consequences for that punch,
but you stopped the bully, thus reaping a benefit for yourself at the cost
of a little bad karma. This is how it works!
It's a lot like buying things at the store. You
work hard to earn your money (good karma), but by giving some up, you can
reap the benefit of something you need. But be careful not to go over budget,
so to speak.
