The Law of Correspondence: Finding Balance Within All Things

The intricate fabric of existence contains a profound symmetry—a sacred dance of patterns and reflections reverberating throughout the cosmos. Within this framework, the Law of Correspondence illuminates the profound relationship between the microcosm and the macrocosm, the inner and the outer, the self and the universe. It is foundational on our path to self-discovery.

Universal Law 3: The Law of Correspondence

The Law of Correspondence proposes that there are patterns and reflections between the macrocosm (the universe) and the microcosm (the individual). As above, so below; as within, so without. 

Correspondence in this way means a close similarity, connection, or equivalence. At its core, the Law of Correspondence teaches that all aspects of reality are fundamentally connected with an equal counterpart.

In embracing this principle, we come to understand that the universe operates according to a harmonious balance—a balance that extends from the smallest atom to the largest galaxy, reflecting the eternal dance of creation and manifestation. 

"To understand ourselves, we must understand that anything we have here has an energetic duplicate - as above, so below. That is a piece that we deny in our one-dimensional thought. - Cherie Doyen "
- Cherie Doyen

In our modern world, losing sight of this fundamental truth is easy as we become caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The Law of Correspondence invites us to look beyond the surface of reality and recognize the deeper patterns and connections of the cosmos are mirrored within the depths of our own being.

Trauma And Correspondence

In our journey of self-discovery, we often encounter the shadows of our past—the traumas and wounds that profoundly shape our lives. Using the Law of Correspondence we look at our astral body. Our astral body is an energetic duplicate of our physical body, much like what you see when you see a ghost or a hologram. 

When we experience a traumatic event a piece of us fragments and is encapsulated in space and time (a quantum entanglement). Often when we have a bucket of emotions constantly overflowing, it is the fragmented pieces of our younger selves showing up. We must reintegrate those pieces so that we can embody the law of correspondence, untangle our lives, and find the balance we so desperately long for. 

This insight speaks to the profound interconnectedness between our inner and outer worlds, as our internal struggles often mirror the challenges we face in the world around us. For example, many healers try to fix or help what they see as wrong or needing attention, which is usually a reflection of their internal struggles. As within, so without. 

Practical Exercises for Correspondence

To embody the Law of Correspondence in daily life, one can:

  • Practice self-discovery through meditation
  • Journal to track patterns and reflections
  • Engage in self-reflection to uncover inner connections with external experiences
  • Spend time in nature to harmonize and identify with its universal rhythms


Through these practices, we can begin to explore the subtle correspondences that shape our lives. By paying attention to the patterns and synchronicities that arise, we can gain valuable insights into the deeper currents of existence, unlocking new levels of understanding and self-awareness.

Final Thoughts

The Law of Correspondence manifests in everyday life. Just as the Internet serves as a vast ocean of knowledge, so does the universe contain the echoes of our thoughts, emotions, and actions.

In a world that often seems fragmented and disjointed, the law of correspondence serves as a guiding light—a reminder that we are not separate from the universe but rather integral parts of the sacred symmetries that bind us to the cosmos and to each other. 

As we journey forward in our exploration of the 12 Universal Laws, may we heed the teachings of the Law of Correspondence and embrace the connection between all things, both within and without.
