We live in an universe where nothing happens by chance. The Law of Cause and Effect teaches us that everything we do comes back to us — whether good or bad. Kind of like a boomerang, you know? Except sometimes we even forget we threw it. 😄 But do we really believe in it? Let’s find out, shall we?

Image with the word 'Cause' written normally and 'Effect' with the letters reversed, symbolizing the idea that effects can arise in unexpected or unconventional ways.

Everyday signs that show you might (still) not believe in this Law:

Eating habits: Said it was “just one more slice of bread”, and now you're googling “mystical causes of bloating” or “how to lose 1kg in 5 minutes”?
Breaking the basics: Go late to bed, wake up grumpy… and blame Mercury in retrograde? Of course.
Digital distractions: One episode turns magically into seven? And you still wonder where the time went?
Poor work attitude: Want recognition, but show up with the energy of a houseplant in burnout?
Relationships: Longing for affection, yet reply to messages with a dry “lol” and default emojis?

👉 All of these are small actions (causes) that bring invisible outcomes (effects)... until they become visible.

How to Act with Awareness?

Choose with intention: Every action is a seed. Ask yourself, “Do I really want to harvest the fruit of this?”

Small seeds sprouting — a visual symbol that every action, no matter how small, is already germinating a future.

Be patient with the outcomes: Karma doesn’t lose its way. Not every answer is instant—some take time, but all eventually arrive.

Correct with humility: If you planted poorly yesterday, start sowing differently today.

Care for the invisible: Emotions, words, and thoughts are also causes. Awaken your power—and make it count!

The Law of Reward: the brighter side

This law can also be generous: every genuine effort, every seed of kindness, every act of love… comes back multiplied. Life doesn’t forget — especially when you do good without expecting applause.

The effect might not come from where you expect — but it will come! Sometimes, it shows up like a delayed notification.

And in Feng Shui?

In Feng Shui, the Law of Cause and Effect is reflected in how you treat our space. You accumulate clutter (cause) and the energy stagnates (effect). You organize, harmonize, and... as if by magic, you feel lighter, more fluid, and even the Wi-Fi seems to work better. Coincidence? Cause and effect.

In summary, with love

Every day, you’re planting something — even when you think you're doing "nothing". Your life is the secret harvest of your daily habits. Want better effects? Start by changing the causes. And remember:

"The universe might not reply by text, but it always responds."
