KARMA: Karma Definition

What is karma? Cause and effect. For each action there is an equal and opposite reaction. There are a lot ways to describe karma, but it is essentially the belief that your present circumstances are the product of previous actions, and what you do today will affect what happens tomorrow. Karma is also associated with past lives - each time you're reborn, the energies from your previous lives influence the conditions of your current life.

What is the relationship between karma and astrology?

Astrology can indicate your current karmic situation, since the positions of the planets at the time of your birth show you which lessons are paramount for this lifetime. Karma is a Sanskrit term. Karma originated in the Vedic system of religion, otherwise known as Hinduism. Action or deed, any physical or mental action is Karma. Thinking is mental Karma. Karma is the sum total of our acts, both in the present life and in the preceding births. Karma is the accumulation of effects from the good and bad causes that we bring with us from our former lives, as well as from the good and bad deeds we have made in this lifetime, which influence on our future.
