The Weight of the Ancestors

The Sun’s in Pushya right now, and I can feel the shift. It’s heavy.

We’re approaching the window where the veil thins, and I can’t help but think of the upcoming Pitru Paksha. It’s not just a ritual for those who don't know better; it’s a direct address to the karmic debt we carry in our blood.

With Ketu sitting in Magha, right in the heart of the ancestral nakshatra, this season isn't about celebration. It's about settling accounts. You’ll find yourself thinking of family members you haven't spoken to in years, or perhaps those who left long ago.

I’ve always kept it quiet during these days. No big meals, no loud music. Just lighting a diya for those who came before, hoping to clear the path for myself.

When the Moon hits Virgo and aligns with that Chitra energy, it’s a perfect time to organize the internal mess. Don't push these feelings away. They’re here for a reason.

It’s time to listen to what the dead are trying to tell you.
