“Through the process of reincarnation, we return to an astrological location that gives us the best opportunity possible to revisit those not-so-good choices. This time, we can make different choices and overcome the limitations that held back the growth of our souls. We must play the game until we get it right. It’s just like kids playing a video game—they keep playing and losing and learning and remembering, until they figure out all the tricks of the game, work their way through all the levels, and . . . they win!”
― Rav Berg, Kabbalistic Astrology: And The Meaning of Our Lives

“The kabbalistic concept of tikkun reveals the kinds of choices we’ve made in past lives and, more important, which choices we should make this time around. By understanding our personal tikkun we can: • Identify our past weaknesses. • Recognize the baggage we’ve brought along from previous lives. • Avoid the roadblocks and detours that slow our progress toward the Light. • Overcome our deepest fears. • Become “all that we can be” in the deepest sense.”
― Rav Berg, Kabbalistic Astrology: And The Meaning of Our Lives

“Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle instead affirms the ancient kabbalistic tenet that the observer and the observed are inseparably, irretrievably bound up with one another. Everything is part of a unified whole, as the Bible declares in the Shema: “Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.”
― Rav Berg, Energy of the Hebrew Letters

“People often discredit astrology when two individuals, born at the exact same time in the same place, lead completely different lives. The positions of their planets are identical, right? Why don’t their lives follow exactly the same paths? Kabbalah would answer this way: It’s because your life is not determined by the positions of the planets! “What?!?” you may say. “Run that by me again.” Your life is not determined by the positions of the planets. In fact, it would be more correct to say that the positions of the planets are determined by your life, or lives. Your birth occurred at a particular moment because it was at that precise moment that your soul needed to be born.”
