  • The 2025

    If I ask people in my personal village, how would you describe 2025? The response would be somewhere along the lines of: life-changing, unstable and unpredictable, shedding the old and rebirth, shattering, etc. Whether you believe in astrology and planetary movements or not, I am sure you have someone in your life who made a…

  • The Uncertain Times

    If you are a little bit interested in the auspiciousness of astrology like me, you already know that 2025 has been described as a unique and powerful year. A year where we are to let go of the old patterns of our lives and reclaim/rebuild/reconstruct ourselves again. This applies to the world too; the uncertainty,…

  • Happy Enough?

    Majority of our lives and most of the time during our life, we are chasing the phantom called: happiness. It is such a powerful word with so many facets. It is as unique as each one of us is. Happiness has a different meaning to all of us, there is no universal formula on how…

  • Alone vs. Lonely

    I often talk with people about the difference between the two, especially since living in this surreal environment that I currently find myself in. I find that people do not know how to be alone and often they feel lonely even with people around them. It is a tough world we live in, creating and…

  • Holiday Blues

    ‘Tis the season’ can be challenging for some; we are all in very different stages of life and in different circumstances. This period, in my opinion, is the one where we are at the highest risk of falling into our unhealthy family patterns or reliving some deeply buried pain. There is so much expectation and…

  • Fantasyland

    I was always fascinated with the limitless possibilities of our brains and what they are capable of creating or conceiving. Now, it is a highly receptive part of us. A part that is connected to our physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies, and a part that takes it all in. We often have this graphical picture…

  • Journey of Loving Yourself

    We all know this one: you can love someone else only if you love yourself first. That is great, but how do we get there? What do I need to do to learn how to love myself? I guess I learned exactly that the word “learn” is the one that matters. Loving yourself is learning…

  • Is Love enough?

    Over the years, I have watched some of my close friends going through and making very difficult decisions to end their long-term relationships. I really admire the courage and strength it takes to leave a relationship that is not toxic or unhealthy, but at the same time, it ran its course. Lessons have been received,…

  • Embracing our Sexuality

    Since the pandemic, this has been one of the most precious journeys and lessons I learned about myself and my body. During the first lockdown, I took a 30-day course with Jenny Keane (based in Ireland) about female sexuality, owning our own pleasure, and self-exploration. Talking about the history of women and pleasure, only with…

  • Your Village

    I love this concept of building your own village. We live in a world where it is increasingly celebrated to be able to do everything alone, handle everything by yourself, build a life alone, being your own center of the universe. In reality, we are social beings. We need other people in our lives and…
