Let's say that life unfolds benignly. This unfolding provides and supplies, it doesn't punish. So, let's say that if you have some bad luck (that's just another way of saying 'something unpleasant I wasn't expecting', right?), it doesn't come from life's unfolding as much as it comes from the fact that life has to unfold through some attitude in you that isn't right. Let's say that if life has to unfold through some wonky attitude in you, some kind of belief that doesn't resonate with life, well... you get some unpleasant surprises, you get a shaking up. Say hello to Gawtcha.
The main thing I got from the oracle text is that Gawtcha isn't about punishment for having got it wrong, Gawtcha's about the shock that gets us paying attention to something that isn't working anymore - something that's outgrown its usefulness. Gawtcha's the teacher who shakes up what we cling to, when what we cling to is holding us back. Hey, Gawtcha... gonna shake me up? It's alright by me - I'm long overdue. (And anyway, life unfolds benignly.)
Direction: roll with the impact, don't drown in the wave; keep your eyes open - it's a wake-up call.
