Google went wild as the media unveiled the trail of women involved in the Tiger Woods scandal and people began to search for more facts on the Internet. Two weeks later and I’m still hearing newscasters urge viewers to tune in for the “latest details”. I don’t know about you, but I am tired of hearing about Tiger Woods. I’m always saddened by the way in which we put our celebrities under a microscope and expect for them to be perfect. I think it is in poor taste the way in which we use them as the fodder for jokes.

Ahh, the comic relief; in laughing at them, we are indeed laughing at ourselves and our own imperfections, relieved perhaps that we aren’t the only ones stumbling through this act on the stage of life.  The fascination we have with the woe’s of the rich and famous is a projection on our part about what we expect from ourselves, and we fanatically follow the fallen, relieved that if they aren’t truly perfect then somehow we, too, must be okay.

However, what I know after conducting hundreds of past-life regressions is:  The script Tiger is learning from is no different than the one you or I wrote for ourselves to learn the soul lessons we need to learn in this life. Our life is designed to help us mature spiritually.  Courageously, Tiger and many other celebrities like him: Bill Clinton, John Edwards, David Letterman, Brad Pitt, Magic Johnson, determined that it would be in his best growth interest to have his marital indiscretions become public.

Don’t get me wrong. I know he wasn’t consciously sitting at home, or out playing a practice round thinking “It’s time to go public with this.”, but when bad things happen to good people, I have found time, after time, after time, that it was by their design. Under regression to a soul planning state, the interlife, people will report that they chose to experience these dramatic occurances in the interest of learning lessons at a soul level. Rarely is something like this unscripted. Each soul has a plan.  Often, the bigger the lesson, the harder the fall.

Experience has taught me that his wife, Elin, has played this theme through with him many times before in various shades. Perhaps in a previous life she played the role of the straying spouse, maybe not to Tiger’s spirit, but to another’s spirit and now Tiger has agreed to step into this role at this time to help her balance her learning. This type of karmic script, often associated with the more dramatic events in life, often involves people who have been involved with us in prior lives.

I can say without a doubt, after supporting 100’s of people in their quest to validate previous existences, that we are all the same life force energy, re-incarnating into the lives we’ve chosen to build and shape our spirit. From a consciousness standpoint, the phases of spirit that we call birth, life and death are only phases that the soul goes through as it transitions from one dimension of existence to another for the sake of development and growth. As Shakespeare suggested in As You Like It:    

“All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts…”

Perhaps Shakespeare was keenly aware that every human experience is just another lesson in the cosmic classroom.
