The Extraordinary Astrology of Death
No death in recent memory or history was as felt worldwide as that of Queen Elizabeth II. In Buddhism, we believe that our Higher Souls choose each human incarnation and map out our own natal astrological charts prior to birth. We have only one destined birth date, time, year, and location. These are the fixed karmic markers with which we must contend.
Here, then, in every moment, it is our dharma to exercise our free will so that we create the most positive, loving, and compassionate lives possible. We can indeed change infinite aspects of our lives, including our death dates.
Though each person is only born with one birth date, we have seeded within our karmic paths multiple possible death dates. It is up to the incarnated soul and the Higher Soul of each being to decide which of the possible death dates best suits their dharma and the free will decisions they have made along the way. A longer life doesn’t necessarily equal a life that is better lived. It is always the quality of one’s years and how much love and good will we bring through that is the substratum of our lives, and that indeed plants the seeds of karma for our future incarnations.
And so if at the soul orchestrating level, we can choose the timing of our deaths, especially in alignment with the optimum astrology, can we make it extraordinary?
