The psychology of fate - does it exist? Does fate exist?

Nowadays, many scientists insist that astrology is a “fossil” science. But if this is so, then astrology is the most living dead language I know.

Love always comes first! Since time immemorial - at least since historical events began to be recorded - astrologers have been bombarded with questions about fate and love. Fate and love have become inseparable concepts for all astrologers.

Today, loneliness is perhaps one of the most serious problems that threatens both young and old. It is paradoxical, but in the age of modern technology, alcoholism and suicide are becoming more and more common among young people. To avoid unwanted pitfalls, we can successfully use astrology, which teaches us how to determine the time to sow and the time to reap, when and where to find our destiny and love.

Can everyone be happy in love? Of course, no one wants to be unloved, no one can be prepared to lose. However, there are horoscopes that clearly show: a person will encounter difficulties in love, will suffer, struggle and lose. However, with the help of astrology, some battles of love could be won brilliantly, while others would be better left unattended. This is determined by the compatibility horoscopes of partners, which are called resonance.

In astrology, love, marriage, friendship and sex are diverse concepts.

To be friends means to enter into a selfless, and most importantly, free, spiritual relationship with a person. The planets Mercury and Uranus are responsible for this.

To love is to possess someone, to desire him, to have fun and relax with him, to experience passion and give birth to the fruits of his desire - poems and songs, hugs and kisses, children.

Neptune with a small admixture of Venus and Mars is responsible for such love-inspiration. Marriage, partnership, is a union of equals, where people enter into a certain agreement and publicly recognize it. Marriage in astrology has, first of all, social, legal significance and is governed by the planet of society Jupiter. Sex in astrology is associated with the exchange of energies and transformation, change. Using our physical bodies, we connect each other with an invisible thread. It is associated with Pluto, Mars and Venus. You and I will talk about fate and love, but not about marriage, since in astrology these are different things. Although in the lives of many of us all this is not separated, but merges together.

Each person's horoscope contains indications of exactly how and who exactly he will love in his life. Of course, there are no names there, but the signs can be seen. There are inclinations towards younger lovers or older lovers. Some of us prefer love and money, i.e. choose those who can give both. Everyone gets something of their own, takes it and pays for what they receive. Usually the main question is - will there be an exceptional feeling in your life? Will disappointments and losses await you? All this can be found out by analyzing the horoscope.

A lot depends on how the planets are located in the horoscope, especially where the Sun is located. Depending on this, people love each other completely differently.

Typical Aries, that is, those who have the majority of planets in this sign fall in love hard and fast, get carried away, but then can suddenly fall out of love.

Taurus on the contrary: they need affection, they need to be conquered, taken, as they say, “to starvation.”

Twins very changeable, they want interesting conversations, fascinating conversations. They can hardly be called very passionate. But it's interesting with them.

Cancers they are passive, shy, vulnerable and very sentimental.

Lions they prefer when they are loved, not by them, and when they bow to them. However, if they love you, you will consider it the greatest and true love of your life.

Virgo and Aquarius Usually people truly love only once in their life. Virgos seek stability and peace. Aquarius - a friend and like-minded person.

Scales want an active partner. They can be won over by force in the same way as Taurus.

Scorpios They are looking for a passionate, strong person who is not afraid of pain and suffering.

Sagittarius- idealists. Straightforward and honest.

Capricorns- reserved but passionate. They will test you for a long time on the strength of the relationship.

Fish They are very vulnerable in love and are almost never completely satisfied with their choice.

If you are a person of the fiery plane (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): hot, impulsive, passionate, then you want to immediately receive the object of your aspirations, without caring about the result. If you love a person of the water element (Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio), who craves the absorption and dissolution of feelings, you will have serious problems. You are too rude for him, you want too much and too quickly, but you are unlikely to be able to understand him. We cannot be in harmony with people who are alien to us in their energy balance. And you need to know more about a person than just the zodiac sign in which the Sun was located on the day of his birth - whether it was Cancer or Capricorn. You need to have more complete information. This is why resonant astrology exists.

Perhaps you will remember that some people arouse an irresistible interest in you. And others do not cause anything. It's nature speaking for you. She rarely makes mistakes. The planets of your horoscope are “attracted” to the planets of the desired person. Without this there is no love and attraction. Everyone needs love. The cherished dream of each of us is to meet our soul mate and live happily ever after with her throughout our lives. Not everyone believes that this is possible - but everyone dreams about it. Let's think about what happens when we meet our one or only one, why our path to each other is often long and difficult.

First of all, any truly important matter requires certain knowledge and experience. In our case, when it comes to a long happy life with your one and only (or only one), that is, finding your destiny and love for life, this is primarily an emotional, psychological experience. A person simply needs to experience something in the sphere of relationships in order to learn to understand himself, his feelings and needs, in order to set some priorities for himself in relationships.

But how to find your soulmate? The search for an optimal partner usually begins at an age when it is difficult to make serious decisions. There are several reasons for this. One of them is insufficient psychological maturity. At 20-22, a person has already formed as a person, but, as a rule, he still has little experience, and therefore his own tasks, interests, goals and priorities are not completely clear to him. Another difficulty is puberty, which has recently passed away and, as a consequence, the task of learning to understand one’s sexual needs and distinguishing love from sex. Some people are aware of this and directly state that they are not going to start a family yet. Others persistently try to discern in each new companion or companion the features of that same betrothed or betrothed.

In reality, few find a lifelong partner at this age, and this path, the path of early marriage, is perhaps the most difficult. After all, in the period from 20 to 30 years a person changes a lot. Finding psychological maturity with a partner is not easy; you have to go through a number of crises - and not everyone can cope with this. It is known that early marriages often end in divorce. The psychological immaturity of young spouses also plays a significant role in this. However, the experience of an unsuccessful marriage often turns out to be a good school of life, after going through which a person already clearly understands what kind of family he needs and what kind he does not need. It is not for nothing that second marriages are statistically much stronger than first ones.

Attitudes to marriage problems are significantly influenced by the experience of the parental family. A child who has experienced a parental divorce and grew up in a single-parent family often grows up with a whole set of beliefs and fears about family life and the possibility of happiness in marriage. A person who has not had the opportunity to observe the relationship between spouses through the example of parents or relatives living nearby, as a rule, does not have a very realistic idea of ​​what everyday family life consists of. As a result, the lack of information is supplemented by one’s own ideas, which are far from reality, and this can become a source of problems. However, these difficulties can be overcome, you just need to keep them in mind.

An important problem is the ability to trust another person and open up. Often early disappointments prevent a person from truly opening his soul to another and building truly close relationships. Fear of intimacy and openness also often turns out to be an obstacle to creating a happy family. Avoiding close, trusting relationships, a person, as a rule, chooses as the object of his affection or love someone inaccessible, someone with whom nothing can happen (for example, a girl starts an affair with a married man). However, this problem can also be solved.

Do not forget that each person lives in his own rhythm, his own life. It would be strange if the lives of different people followed the same scenario: studied, got married, etc. And most importantly, remember that in this world there is your soulmate, who will simply disappear without you. And if you haven’t met her yet, you will definitely meet her. But how to find your love and destiny, how to single out from the crowd that one person with whom you can connect your destiny and create a harmonious and happy union? Try turning to astrology to find the key to the heart of a man or woman. The stars will tell you how to arouse the interest of a representative of the opposite sex, how to keep him with you.


The topic of our departure from life is one of the most mysterious and sacred. For many centuries, humanity has tried to comprehend this secret. Does fate exist? How free are we to create our own life scenario? Can a person involuntarily or consciously draw out (“craw out”) his departure or, conversely, by an effort of will push back the fateful date?

Death is just a transition

Two dates

Psychics and magicians talk about the multivariate nature of the future and promise any development of events in their sessions. Psychologists assure us that with the help of special psychotechniques it is even possible to guess the “rainy day” and move it as far as possible.
Undoubtedly, every person has a choice of directions in which the path of life can change in one direction or the other. But... as numerous facts and ancient treatises testify, these changes concern only the basis of life and can occur within two initially programmed dates - the day of arrival into this world and the day of departure. We can influence the quality of our lives, but we cannot change the most important dates.
Researchers from Stanford (California, USA) recently completed an experiment called “Life Span”, which began... 90 years ago, in 1921. More than one and a half thousand children participated in the experiment and were monitored throughout their lives. The analysis of the results surprised the scientists. It turned out that people with a good sense of humor who had a happy childhood behind them lived, on average, shorter than others. It also turned out that love for pets, contrary to popular belief, does not prolong life. But marriage, like divorce, does not affect health in any way. Those who are loved and cared for feel happier throughout life, but this also does not affect its duration.


The blind clairvoyant Vanga believed that no one would escape what was prescribed by fate.

Own way
Let's turn to the great clairvoyant and soothsayer Vanga. The niece and personal biographer of the Bulgarian fortuneteller Krasimir Stoyanov in her book “Vanga: Confession of a Blind Clairvoyant” gives the following dialogue:

If it so happens that you see, with the inner vision given to you from above, an imminent misfortune or even the death of a person who has come to you, can you do something so that you can avoid misfortune?

No, neither I nor anyone else can do anything.

And if troubles, even catastrophic ones, threaten not just one person, but a group of people, an entire city, or a state, is it possible to prepare something in advance?

It's useless.

Does a person’s fate depend on his inner, moral strength, and physical abilities? Is it possible to influence fate?

It is forbidden. Everyone will go their own way, and only their own.”


Sathya Sai Baba made a mistake in predicting the date of his own death.

Gloomy visions

Some people secretly feel the approach of their death. This manifests itself differently for everyone. Someone is trying to put all their affairs in order. Someone begins to become interested in the structure of the universe, to think about the meaning of life, God, and the soul. And someone becomes despondent, loses interest in life, as if physically and psychologically preparing themselves for the transition to another form of existence.
The ability to predict one’s death is most clearly demonstrated in the works of poets and writers. Moreover, often the authors in their works not only foresaw the approach of their end, but also described in detail the circumstances of their death.


Nikolai Rubtsov predicted that he would die in winter.

Nikolai Rubtsov prophetically wrote in one of his poems:

“I will die in the Epiphany frosts,
I will die when the birches crack.”

Although nothing foreshadowed the tragedy then, he died on January 19, Epiphany.
Fyodor Sologub, in a poem in 1913, 14 years before his death, predicted to himself:

“Darkness will destroy me in December.
I will stop living in December.”

“In the midday heat in the valley of Dagestan
I lay motionless with lead in my chest.”

It happened as the poet foresaw. He died in a duel after being shot by Martynov.
And here the question remains controversial: either the writers really “saw” something from the future thanks to intuition, or, again, thanks to the gift of imagination and the ability to create their own worlds, they formed their own model of care.
In all likelihood, poets somehow gain knowledge about the future from their subconscious, listening to the inner self, which is closely connected with the Higher Mind - the repository where there are answers to all existing questions.
This fact is also surprising: many people who do not have the gift of foresight and do not know when their earthly journey will end can easily answer how this will happen.


John Lennon became a hermit shortly before his death.

And it also happens that a person is afraid of something and with his fears attracts tragic events. It was not for nothing that the ancients said: “We ourselves invite guests to the feast of our thoughts.”
The writer Venedikt Erofeev wrapped himself in scarves all his life, buttoning his collar tightly, as if he was protecting himself from a future incurable disease, which later overtook him. The writer died of throat cancer.
The legendary musician John Lennon, shortly before his death, suddenly became a hermit, hiding in his house. As if anticipating an upcoming assassination attempt, he stopped communicating with the world and stopped going out. Moreover, according to the recollections of his loved ones, he began to become interested in the topic of murder, fearfully imagining how a person feels when a bullet enters his body.
It has been noticed that people who are destined for a short life live it very brightly and fruitfully, trying to do everything in time. They say about them: they were in a hurry to live. How many brilliant poets left our world at a young age, leaving their descendants the greatest creative legacy (M.Yu. Lermontov died at the age of 26, Sergei Yesenin died at 30). While other long-lived talents began to realize their great plans only after 40-50 years. There are many artists who created their works over the age of 70. Titian painted the best paintings for almost 100 years. Verdi, Strauss and many other composers composed music until they were 80 years old.

"The time has come"

There is an assumption that our soul knows about the time allotted to us, and when this time comes, it pushes a person to a critical situation. You can recall the story of the death of the wonderful poet and singer Igor Talkov. The tragedy occurred behind the scenes of the Yubileiny Sports Palace. Singer Aziza asked Talkov, through her friend Igor Malakhov, to perform in front of her, since she did not have time to prepare. But the singer did not agree. A conflict arose, during which Talkov was killed by a pistol shot. The singer's director Valery Shlyafman was accused of unintentional murder, having tried to snatch the pistol from the hands of another person and accidentally pulled the trigger. But, as we know, there are no accidents.
According to the recollections of Talkov’s widow Tatyana, the singer never carried a weapon with him, but for some reason that day he took a gas pistol to the concert. And when a generally harmless argument flared up, he was the first to take out a weapon and start shooting in the air, thereby provoking Malakhov to grab his pistol, loaded with live ammunition. And, who knows, maybe if Talkov had not taken a weapon with him, everything would have worked out. But, most likely, the inner command of the soul worked that day - “the time has come”, and the entire subsequent scenario was built in accordance with this.
Ancient eastern texts contain knowledge that a person comes into this world precisely when the need arises for general evolutionary development, and leaves it at the hour when the mission is completed. Not earlier and not later. And it is very important to realize that death is not only inevitable and is part of the universal world order, but also that death is not the end, but a transition of consciousness to a higher spiritual level.

Can a person change his capabilities, manage his life, or “it’s rock”

The proverb says: “If you sow an action, you will reap a habit; if you sow a habit, you will reap a nature; if you sow a nature, you will reap a destiny.” But does fate exist, do we really only fulfill what is destined for us from above? Or are we free to build or change our lives at any moment?

Everyone knows that there are events that are beyond our control, i.e. they happen whether we want it or not... And they sometimes have a very significant impact on our lives.

We talked about karma and fate with Elena Batyr, a psychologist, shaman, psychic and healer with a rare gift of divination.

Elena, some modern psychologists argue that the concept of karma or fate is far-fetched. A person himself attracts negative or positive events. And as a result, it turns out that fate is just a sequence of human actions, which he cannot change only because he himself creates them. Is it so?

No, it's much more complicated. The fact is that every person is born at a certain time and in a certain place. As they say, “this is how the stars became.” This component of fate is unchanging, as physicists say - “static”. But there is also “dynamics”! For example, a person has lived part of his life, it is already in the past. It's like a piece has fallen off a rock. But the absence of this piece greatly affects the future of the rock as a whole.

I will give one more comparison for a simple understanding of the concept of “karma”. For example, a person is defined by the presence of arms, legs, head, smooth skin... In this, all people are similar to each other, we cannot change this. This, let’s say, is our “center”, the basis of our appearance. That is, if there is a tail, fur, it is no longer a person, it is an animal. A person cannot change the length of his arms and legs or grow fur on them, but he can change his hairstyle and dress differently. And now he is different! In other words, there is in our life both what is fatal and what we can influence.

Another comparison. Planet Earth is the center where civilization develops. First dinosaurs roamed it, then people appeared. On Earth you can live and love, fight or build, change something. Everything is born and dies, but the planet itself remains.

Fate is a sequence of human actions that he cannot and, most importantly, does not want and cannot change. Like arms and legs.

I am a hereditary shaman. And I know that according to the so-called shamanic horoscope, it is possible to determine some of the people who are not ready and are not capable of family life. For the other part of people, it makes no sense to seek great achievements at work. Such a person can be a super workaholic, but, alas, he will not achieve any particular success, no matter how you look at it.

At the same time, if a person himself is not in the mood to change anything, then nothing changes for him, even in that which is within his power to change. It is the awareness of what can and should be changed that allows you to change your life for the better. But only a specialist can tell you what can be fixed and what cannot. For example, to achieve certain successes, you can change the color of your clothes or add some additional items to your workplace. In the shamanic tradition, the color brown, for example, strengthens the element of earth. If a person was born weak, a specialist can tell you how to improve your health.

But for the modern church and believers who are accustomed to visiting church, the concept of karma is alarming and frightening. Do you think these concepts contradict Christianity?

Of course not. Karma in the Eastern sense is law. The law of karma implements the consequences of a person’s actions, both positive and negative, and thus makes him responsible for his life, for all the suffering and joy that it brings him. Karma and fate are different categories. Unfortunately, while “karma” is not always understandable, almost a foreign word. We need to calmly figure it out. For example, why do they talk about the need to keep the commandments in the church? When we keep the precepts, we improve our karma. Here Christian morality and the law of karma are one. It is very important that these observances concern not only us, but also our children! No wonder the Bible says “the sins of the fathers will fall on the children to the seventh generation...”

We often say: I don’t want my children to repeat my fate. Psychologists say that in early childhood, children adopt patterns, patterns of behavior and typical reactions to the environment from their parents. And then in the future, children, finding themselves in similar situations, react in the same way as their parents.

Indeed, in infancy, in order to survive, children are controlled by their intuition. Unconsciously, they are able to act in the same way as their parents. Remember: when you approach a sleeping baby, you hear even, even breathing. But as soon as you lean towards him, you will feel that his breathing is changing - the child is holding his breath, hiding in order to escape in case of danger. I say this with confidence because I myself have four children. But then, when children grow up and begin to explore the world on their own, they may or may not adhere to their parents’ behavior model. They always have the opportunity to achieve greater success than their parents.

Can someone else influence karma? For example, can a consultation with a psychologist or other specialist change a person’s fate?

Yes. But only if the specialist is a professional. For example, a psychologist can sense the weaknesses of his client and warn him against mistakes in relationships. The Eastern shaman “calculates” the main element of man and actively introduces it into human life. And you don’t have to believe it at all. After all, when you come to the clinic and the doctor tells you: “You need to take such and such pills for 21 days,” you may not believe it, but take the pills. And, if the doctor turns out to be good, you get better without even believing it.

One day I was filming on television and a producer approached me. I saw that he listened to me carefully and decided to get acquainted. I told him about his life, about his problems, about his health, and advised him to simply change the color of his clothes for career growth. After some time he thanked me. I found out that he received a very serious project.

- You mentioned that a person is influenced by the elements. What does it mean?

There are five elements - fire, water, wood, earth and metal... They are unchanging. It's like a person - two arms, two legs and a head. We all need these elements. After all, it is difficult for a person to live without an arm or a leg (it happens the other way around, it is impossible to live with an extra arm or head). Just as the harmony of the human body is necessary, the harmony of the elements in a person is also necessary.

It is known that there are careful, attentive people, and there are those who are called “open systems.” They, like children, are open to everything and trust everyone. Even the “bricks” falling on their heads. They do not know how to block the negative actions of others. Can we say that such people are more susceptible to danger?

Yes, and there are many such people. Here's a hint: they usually have the number 3 in their date of birth. They are very compassionate people who always help others. And at the same time, oddly enough, they are usually very strong, hard-working, as they say, “self-made.” Shamans say that they belong to the Buddha of Compassion - Avalokiteshvara. This Buddha wants to help everyone. By the way, this strongly coincides with Orthodoxy. After all, the number 3 is the number of the trinity. Even if “the whole world collapses” on such a person, he will still have compassion. He helps everyone and always.

- How does karma affect the family tree and how to change negative attitudes?

First of all, you need to contact a specialist. After all, it is known that even psychologists often consult other psychologists about their own lives. In the shamanic tradition, one must read prayers and mantras. We recommend preparing for this procedure by sitting in a special way. And then, for example, bad people will bypass you.

I had one friend who did not believe in the power of shamans, but for some reason she still turned to me for help. And finally, I decided to do these unusual procedures for myself. Changes began immediately! She accepted them and was happy.

A psychologist understands that there are no coincidences in life. There are other traditions. For example, someone who practices yoga acts differently. The common consequence of the influence of a psychologist, a shaman, and a yogi is that a person becomes, on the one hand, more open to the world, and on the other, more protected. It is as if he falls into a “cocoon” and thereby protects himself. Imagine two people. Let’s say when winter comes, the first one puts on a hat and fur coat so as not to get sick, and the second one relies only on his own strength and health - he doesn’t put on warm clothes and inevitably gets sick.

Regardless of karma, we are able to maintain our health and the health of our loved ones!

The philosophical question of whether we control our lives orthe fate of a person itself directs along the desired path, and remains unresolved. But if you look carefully, you can find several interesting answers that will significantly help you achieve your goals and allow you to look at life a little differently. So let's find out after alldoes fate exist?

What is fate?

We often hear the word "fate", but what it is we imagine vaguely. This term is actively used in esotericism, and is completely rejected by materialists as some kind of heresy, unworthy of attention. But you still need to define the concepts in order to know what we are talking about. So, under the term "fate" the predetermination of all events is implied.

And usually we witness two opposing opinions at once:

  1. Fate exists and everything is predetermined from above.
  2. Man builds his own destiny.

Which statement do you think is true? Is there destiny? Or do we choose our own path? Remember the answer, but for now let's move on.

How we make choices

To understand whether fate exists, you need to turn to psychology. This may seem strange, but you will soon understand the truth of the statement. After all, the main question of the topic is - do we make our own choices or did fate make it for us? To get the answer, you need to figure out how this very choice occurs, what mechanism is activated in our psyche.

The fact is that the psyche as such is a set of programs that organically interact. Love, fear, anger, joy, the ability to learn and, of course, make decisions - all these feelings and skills have their own operating algorithm. Always the same for all people. When we get excited, there is a reason for it. When we are angry, there is also something that awakens this feeling. And when we make a choice, we have our own reasons that force us to act this way and not otherwise.

I would like to cite one fascinating excerpt from the film “The Matrix”. This may come as a bit of a surprise, but the scene where Neo and the seers meet is thought-provoking.

Pythia: I would invite you to sit down, but you still refuse. And don't worry about the vase.

Neo: What vase?

Neo turns to look and touches the vase, it breaks.

Pythia: Yes this one.

Neo: Sorry.

Pythia: She said don't worry. My kids will glue it together.

Neo: How did you find out?

Pythia: Oh, I think you’re more interested in something else: would you have broken the vase if I hadn’t told you?

But is it true, would he have broken the vase if the seer had not spoken about it?

I asked this question to my friends, but few could give a reasoned answer. They only said “yes” or “no.” But no one suggested a third answer - Pythia could not help but say about the vase.

– chain of events

To understand this answer, let's look at how any events happen in our lives. To do this, let's take a simple example - you are going to lunch.

Why are you doing this?

The answer is simple - you are hungry, you need to eat to live. These factors merge into one impulse that shapes your decision and you act.

It turns out we see a chain cause - effect, which resembles the domino principle. Each domino pushes the next one and so the whole chain falls. But do dominoes have no choice? Returning to our example, your hunger is the reason here. What you going to lunch - consequence.

Question: is this fate? Do you have a choice not to go to lunch?

Materialists will say, “yes, I can stay home and starve.” And I agree with you - after you read this article, you have a new impulse, because a new reason has appeared. And as a result, you make a new decision.

But imagine that you are in Groundhog Day. Only, unlike the hero of the film, you do not realize that you are experiencing the same day. Then 100 times out of 100 you will go to lunch. You will perform the same action. Why? Yes, because the conditions have not changed.

Running away from fate, as is usually the case, he rushes towards it (Titus Livius).

To describe this even more figuratively, imagine a billiard ball. You hit him with a cue. And if you hit from the same place, exactly repeating the force and angle of impact, then each time the ball will end up in the same position. Logical?

And if you apply this to your life - under the same conditions, WITH THE SAME IMPULSES, you will do exactly the same. That is, you do not choose your actions, they are already chosen by those reasons, those dominoes that are in the chain. The domino does not choose to “fall” - it is “fallen”. Likewise, impulses in your head do not choose to “appear,” they “appear.” And these impulses determine your “choice”. That's right - reasons determine impulses in your head, on the basis of which you make a decision. 2*2 always = 4. The same impulse always = the same solution. Any event in your life is a cause that gives rise to an effect.

Every impulse, every desire has its own reason from the past. And every action and every thought has a consequence in the future.

That is, again we are faced with a chain of events that always operates. This means that any of our desires is already predetermined. In this case, does a person have freedom of choice? Or is it just our imagination?

The seer in the film told Neo a very correct phrase: “Have you come to me to choose? Your choice has been made, all you have to do is realize it.” There is no need to be afraid of it, just accept it.

How to find out your destiny?

Probably every person is interested in finding out what will happen to him in the future, what his fate is. And if we understand that every event has its own cause, and fate as a whole is a chain consisting of these causes, then it is logical to assume that fate can be recognized. To do this, of course, we need to know every reason, see every link in the chain, which is usually beyond our control. However, what is hidden from consciousness is an open book to our subconscious.

The fact is that the human brain is a generator of energy impulses that carry information. And every second, even at this moment, waves of energy emanate from your brain in all directions, which, like ripples on water, spread in all directions at tremendous speed. And we receive such waves from every living being. And not only them. Any action and event is woven into the global web of energy-information space. This is a kind of Internet, the connection with which is constantly maintained by the subconscious. Do you think how we can sense a person’s mood and why our mood can be transmitted to others?

Telepathy, telekinesis, the ability to know the past and future, all these phenomena are based precisely on the fact of the interconnection of all objects and phenomena. But we are not aware of it, just as we do not control the heartbeat and blood flow in our veins. And to gain access to information hidden in the depths of the subconscious, you need learn to work with it.

So we have answered an important question - is there destiny? Of course, discussions will continue for a long time, and there will be many opinions. One of them is that our choice has been made and we simply open it, because life is a spindle of chains that converge and diverge, creating a mathematical harmony that we call fate. And yes, we influence it, but this influence is already predetermined.

Is there Fate, is everything predetermined - or is man himself the builder of his life, and how happy and successful he will be depends only on him? People have been trying to answer such questions since time immemorial, but to this day neither philosophers, nor religious figures, nor scientists have come to a consensus.

Ancient tragedy

In most of the cultures of the ancient world, man appears to be only a statist, absolutely powerless before the power of fate. Thus, the ancient Egyptians believed that the fate of all mortals was predetermined from birth, and the years of life were measured out in advance. However, the gods could make some adjustments - both positive and negative, so the inhabitants of Ancient Egypt tried in every possible way to earn their favor, while understanding that it would still not be possible to radically change what was destined (for example, to prolong life).

The ancient Greeks believed that fate was “in charge” of three sisters - the Moiras. Lachesis is “the giver of lots,” Clotho is “the spinner,” and Anthropos is “the inevitable.” Lachesis, even before a person’s birth, determines the lot - the main direction and events of his destiny. Clotho spins the thread of life, and Anthropos breaks it. Some believed that even Jupiter could not dictate his will to the Moirai: they also had power over him. So what could mere mortals count on? All that remained was to humble oneself and steadfastly endure all the trials, worthy of playing the assigned role. It turns out that the most important hedonists of antiquity (after all, this is exactly how the Hellenes seem to us) were, in essence, fatalists, people with a tragic worldview - which, in fact, is what all the classical tragedies are written about.


A similar picture was observed among the ancient Scandinavians and Germans. At the foot of the World Tree of Fate sat three norns: carving runic texts on tablets, which determined the life expectancy of each person, the trials prepared for him by fate, and the nature of death.
In mythology, the Romans also had such sisters - parks. In the beginning there are only two: Nona and Decima. They were called birth goddesses, and their names were given according to the ninth and tenth months after conception. But later, probably under the influence of the Greeks, they were joined by a third sister - Morta: the goddess of death. Nona, like her Greek counterpart Clotho, wove the thread of fate, Decima, like Lachesis, determined the lot by winding the thread on a spindle, and Morta, like Anthropos, cut the thread exactly at the appointed time indicated by the lot. But the Romans, despite the influence of the Greeks, were not distinguished by total fatalism. “People rule their destiny, not the stars, dear Brutus” - these words were spoken by Julius Caesar, a character in Shakespeare’s tragedy of the same name. However, the real Caesar could have said something like this: many of the emperor’s enlightened contemporaries also shared this opinion. Even a century and a half before the era of Caesar, the Roman poet Titus Maccius Plautus said: “The wise man creates his own destiny.” Even ordinary Roman citizens constantly made requests to the gods with the hope of changing their own lives and appeasing Fortune.

Slave or master?

But the Chinese have never equated fate and fate. The concept of fate in Ancient China was denoted by the hieroglyph ming, which can be interpreted as “predestination allowing freedom of choice.” It was believed that a “noble husband” could well influence certain events, correct fate, and evade its blows. Ancient Chinese philosophers recommended “knowing all the commands of Heaven, but following only the right ones.” Later, another one was added to the hieroglyph ming - yun, denoting movement, change. That is, the very concept of fate began to include even greater freedom. According to the Chinese, human life largely depends on his own efforts and achievements: the main thing is not to deviate from the right path.

Among the Slavs, the attitude towards fate also changed - but in the opposite direction. The Russian word “fate” itself is clearly divided into two components: it is nothing more than God’s judgment. “Do not endure God’s judgment for a craft, nor for a man, nor for a bird,” says the “Tale of Igor’s Campaign.” And, in principle, there is nothing to be surprised here: “The Lay” was written at the end of the 12th century, at the height of the Middle Ages, which, albeit with a noticeable delay, reached Rus'. However, the ancient Slavs perceived fate completely differently. According to the testimony of the Byzantine writer, secretary of the commander Belisarius (VI century AD), “they (the Slavs) do not know predestination and generally do not recognize that it has any significance, at least in relation to people, but when death is already with them at their feet, whether they are seized by a general illness or go to war, they make a vow: if they escape it, they will immediately make a sacrifice to God for their lives; and having avoided death, they sacrifice what they promised, and think that with this sacrifice they bought their salvation.” As we see, there is no fatalism inherent in most ancient Europeans. Our ancestors believed in themselves, in the help of the Family and the support of the gods - perhaps that is why for centuries they were practically invulnerable? But medieval ideology gradually changed their attitude towards fate and free will - as well as throughout the world.

It’s not for nothing that the Middle Ages are called a dark era: the world was seen as an abode of evil, the body as a receptacle of vices and the shackles of the soul, beauty as a devil’s trap. “Make everything earthly bitter for me, give me strength to endure all adversities with patience,” Saint Thomas a à Kempis asked God. Dreams of a better life, love, health, and prosperity were invariably declared sinful. For “the humble rejoice in their humiliation,” as Pope Gregory Dvoeslov wrote. A man who resisted fate, tried to fight for happiness, for life, was ultimately recognized as vicious: after all, in fact, he challenged the Lord himself! “Everything is God’s will,” the church fathers answered the suffering. But how, in this case, can we explain wars and crimes, lies and theft, betrayal and meanness? There was another explanation for this: God endowed man with free will, and when people deviate from their destiny and do not want to accept the fate and will of the Almighty, they take the path of sin, which leads them straight to hell. But suffering and hardship, accepted with gratitude, strengthen the soul and make a person righteous.

"Fatal" prophecies

Of course, the more you tighten the nuts, the greater the risk of breaking the thread: the gloomy millennium was replaced by the Renaissance, distinguished not only by freedom of morals, but also by a rather free attitude towards fate. Enjoyment of earthly goods, resurrection of ancient ideals of beauty - but at the same time no fatalism, no doom, characteristic of ancient heroes. The cult of hedonism, the desire to take the maximum from fate, the desire to independently build one’s life - this worldview is still relevant today, but it originated precisely in the Renaissance and was somewhat transformed in subsequent centuries. A man of modern times would certainly not rely on the lot of fate or the will of the gods: faith in science and the limitless possibilities of the mind inspired optimism, confidence that even the impossible is possible. Man is not a prisoner of fate, but its master: this position has been very popular for the last 500 years. There is only one thing that confuses us: all this time, people, like thousands of years ago, tried to look into the future and find out their fate. It turns out that they were not so different from their ancient ancestors? Or is it the other way around: are they trying to use predictions to their advantage? Let's look at a few striking examples.

Everyone knows that in the 37th year of life: this is what happened. Did the poet not believe the fortuneteller or did he decide that he couldn’t escape fate? According to the memoirs of contemporaries, Pushkin was a very superstitious person and often recalled the prophecy, which sounded as follows: “You can live a very long time, but at the age of 37, beware of a white man, a white horse and a white head.” As we know, it was the blond Dantes, who came to the Black River in a white uniform and on a white horse, who killed Pushkin. The poet remembered the prophecy very well and knew that this duel would be fatal for him. He could well have refused the fight and lived a long time, as predicted, but the poet himself chose this fate: the hurt honor turned out to be more valuable than a long life.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, many predicted a terrible death in 1918 for the last Russian emperor. Among the predictors was Seraphim of Sarov, to whose words Nicholas II always listened. Why didn’t you believe it this time? I believed it. And he said more than once: “For myself and my family, I am not afraid of anything until 1918.” When the revolution was approaching, the royal family could have avoided death. But Nicholas II did not emigrate from Russia: it turns out that he made his choice. This was a matter of his honor and had nothing to do with humility in the face of fatal predestination.

What is written in the family?

The question of the existence of fate and whether it is possible to change fate has been raised many times over the last century - psychologists of different schools and directions, sociologists, astrologers, and magicians have expressed a variety of opinions on this matter. But, by and large, everyone agrees on one thing: fate exists - and it can be changed. And it’s hard to disagree with this position.

Even an outspoken skeptic is unlikely to object to the fact that there is some kind of predestination in the life of any person. Let's say a long-awaited child is born in one family. Let it be a girl. From the first days of her life, she is surrounded by the care, attention and love of loved ones. Parents try to give their daughter all the best: a strong school, music, dancing, languages, fashionable clothes, resorts... And in another family a boy is born, who is also loved in his own way, but the parents are too busy to raise a child - he would solve our problems... We will not consider extreme cases - and it is clear that we are not able to influence certain circumstances. But how the fates of these children will develop in the future largely depends on them. Surely they will have to face challenges - will they be able to overcome them and if so, how: on their own or with the help of specialists? Here everything depends on the person, on his conscious choice.

Astrologers will, of course, notice that a child is born into one family or another not by chance; his character, inclinations and preferences, environment and some events are predetermined by the position of the stars. Thanks to astrology, you can calculate at what moments you need to catch your luck, and when to lay down straws, how to make life better, avoid troubles and not miss your chance.

An interesting view of fate is offered by genetic psychology. Not long ago, scientists proved that not only information about hair color and nose shape, not only certain abilities and hereditary diseases, but also fate is transmitted at the genetic level. Or rather, problems that our ancestors could not cope with. For example, if a grandfather divorced at the age of thirty, then his grandson will have to go through a crisis in family relations in the same years. If he does not repeat his grandfather’s mistakes, it means he will cope with the test and will be able to move on - and most importantly, he will save his children and grandchildren from such troubles. And if a person turns to a competent psychologist with a problem, the specialist will find for him the optimal way to solve this hereditary problem.

Esotericists will call ancestral programs negative karma (?) and will help you quickly get rid of the “bad inheritance” - with the help of certain rituals, conspiracies, talismans, they will simply remove the problem from your life...

In general, friends, there is no need to be afraid of fate - no matter what is written in your family, you are able to change your life according to your own desire. And what you turn your life into is up to you to decide.
