Why does everything feel so heavy right now and how do I find some peace? Honestly, looking at where things are sitting today—with Saturn hanging out in Revati and that intense energy in Taurus—it’s no wonder we’re all feeling the weight of unfinished business. It’s like the universe is forcing us to stop and look at the debts we haven't paid yet.

I’ve been struggling with the mental noise myself. It’s persistent, isn't it? But I started practicing Trataka, specifically candle-gazing, and it’s shifted something for me. It sounds simple, maybe even a bit too basic, but staring into a flame keeps the mind from running off into those anxious rabbit holes.

Because the Moon is in Rohini right now, our emotions are tied so closely to our material comforts and security. When those feel shaky, we panic.

Try this: tonight, find a quiet space. Light a small candle at eye level. Don't force your eyes to stay open; just let the gaze soften until the edges of the flame blur. If you find your mind wandering to the past, just pull it back to the flicker. It’s a direct way to calm that restlessness.

Sometimes I track these transits on the Vyom app just to see if there’s a specific pattern to my funk, and it helps to know I’m not just losing my mind—it’s just the weather.

Don't expect it to fix everything in five minutes. It’s a practice. Just breathe and let the light do the work for a while.
