I just did a tarot reading for a woman who told me that during her twenties she had been obsessed with this man, and had prayed many times to God to let him marry her. She had lost her faith when it didn't happen.
Now, ten years later, she bumps into an old mutual friend who told her that he is in jail for some white collar crime and had defrauded his in-laws so his kids and wife have no safety net at all.
She wanted to know if I thought God had known this.
And I said, sometimes when you don't get what you want, you have to ask yourself, was the universe holding you back or protecting you? Either way, it's an interesting question.
(I'm a believer in God, but not in organized religion, which I find very male centric and makes rules to help the powerful.)
