On July 26, Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries, inviting us to reassess our responsibilities, courage, and long-term ambitions. On the same day, the Lunar Nodes shift into the Aquarius–Leo axis, marking the beginning of an approximately 18 month cycle focused on contributing to the collective rather than seeking personal recognition, and choosing authenticity over external validation. On July 29, the Full Moon in Aquarius brings clarity to friendships, communities, and our vision for the future. Also on this day, the Sun conjunct Jupiter in Leo creates one of the year’s most optimistic...

{:en} Sometimes, during the day, we experience a feeling of tightness in our bodies. Our shoulders tense, our hips stiffen, and our breath becomes shallow without us even noticing. Over the years, through practice and by really learning to listen to my body, I’ve come to understand why. I’ve realized that the body already picks up and holds the emotions my mind doesn’t even notice. With every practice, I’ve felt this more and more, and gradually made it my own. I first felt that my hips were holding onto emotions during my first yoga practice. Suddenly, my legs began to tremble. Later, I realized that the trembling was actually a kind of release. It...

{:en} August 9 – August 16, 2026 This Week’s Cosmic Outlook This week, the cosmos delivers a powerful message: Sometimes, creating a new life begins with having the courage to show the world who you truly are.

Emotions may fuel our actions more strongly than usual, making it important to channel that...

{:en} “The pendulum of the mind does not swing between right and wrong; it swings between meaning and meaninglessness.” — Carl Jung The moment we label something as “right” or “wrong,” we eliminate the space required to truly understand it. Yet everything exists through its opposite. Something that is not right is not always wrong; and something that is wrong does not mean it can never be right in certain circumstances. One of the mind’s greatest tasks is to try to understand. But more often than not, when our mind encounters a judgment, it falters, because the function of understanding has been taken away from it. Understanding requires clarity,...

Here I am explaining. Paris is one of my favorite cities. I go whenever I get the chance. It is...
