I agree. But the original question concerned a universal
fairness with the R. E. and I don't feel this at all when
I raise consciousness to that level.

Nova is one example of a collective karmic event. We all
suffer under these as part of being human, and it doesn't
matter how "good" our personal karma is when these kind
of things hit us.

According to Jung, the mid-life crisis is all about the
male being more caring/nurturing and the woman being
more aggressive and independent--a role reversal that
throws a lot of folks.
