Life is a chaotic circus. One minute things could feel great, and the next things could seem absolutely awful. Amidst it all you might have asked yourself “What am I even doing?” and “Do I even have free will?” Chani Nicholas shares how astrology can help us cope with uncertainty, nurture self-acceptance and reveal our life’s purpose. Chani stresses the importance of being lost to be found, and how leaning into discomfort helps us grow. She invites us to explore what could happen if we stopped fighting ourselves, and reminds us that we cannot heal on our own. At the end of the day, our growth is collective. How can we move with intentionality and connect our pieces of light together, to radiate a healthier world?
