Why are we so obsessed with being 'destined'?

I’ve been watching the current transits, and it’s a heavy time for a lot of people. With Jupiter and Mercury currently sitting in Cancer, I’m seeing a lot of folks looking for emotional security in their charts. It makes me wonder: why do we treat karma like a prison sentence rather than a curriculum?

Most of us spend our energy trying to predict the outcome instead of focusing on the intent behind our actions. We want to know 'what will happen' because it feels safer than asking 'how should I handle this?'

If you believe your chart is set in stone, you're missing the point of Vedic astrology entirely. It’s not meant to predict a static future. It’s meant to show you the pressures you’re under so you can choose your response with more awareness.

When you're dealing with tricky transits, it’s easy to get lost in the noise. If you're tracking these movements yourself, I usually suggest using Vyom to keep an eye on how these planetary shifts align with your specific life path.

But let’s be honest. Even with all the data, the choices are still ours to make. Do you think we actually have free will, or are we just watching a pre-recorded movie and calling the shots?
