A soul contract is a concept found in various spiritual and metaphysical belief systems, suggesting that souls agree to certain experiences, lessons, or relationships before incarnating on Earth. This agreement is believed to be made in a non-physical realm and serves as a blueprint for the individual's life journey, including challenges and growth opportunities. The term is often associated with New Age spirituality, reincarnation beliefs, and certain interpretations of karma. In Hebrew, the concept might be translated as חוזה הנשמה (Chozeh Haneshamah). Similar ideas exist in other cultures and languages, such as contrato del alma in Spanish and contratto dell'anima in Italian. The idea of soul contracts is often used to explain life's difficulties as pre-agreed lessons, fostering a sense of purpose and acceptance among believers.
