20 sentences that helped me through the toughest times.

I won't be the same person next year. Just as I'm different from who I was last year.

I am gonna make a long Twitter thread on the Shaktis (or powers) of each nakshatra. The Shakti literally translates to energy. This is base of all origin as matter is a condensed form of energy. Each nakshatra or lunar mansion helps to materialise some aspect of the earthly life.

Ashwini🐴: Shidhra Vyapani Shakti (Power to reach quickly). The deities of this nakshatra are horse gods- Aswhinikumars who are healers. They provide fast relief. Swiftness is associated with stallions. Ashwini natives themselves are quite dynamic, always on the go and healthy.

Bharani🐘: Apabharani shakti (Power to take away or remove things). The ultimate removal of material existence, death, is controlled by Bharani's deity Yama. The power to dissolve what is beyond its time, and move on to next, is seen among the Bharani natives.

Krittika🔪: Dahana shakti (Power to burn) Ruler of Krittika nakshatra, Agni, gives heat, light, and the ability to purify. He is all- consuming, and uncontrollable. This fierceness exists among all Krittika natives.

Rohini🌹: Rohana shakti (Power to grow) Ruled by Prajapati Bramha, the creator god, this nakshatra is powerhouse of creativity. The power to nurture ideas, and bring it to fruition lies among Rohini natives. They are also attracted to agriculture, and farming.

if you need more energy, read this thread:

1) Sleep: Not having enough sleep is the root cause of feeling low throughout the day.

Our body is programmed in such a way that it needs at least 6-8 hours of sleep daily.

2) Get some sun: Sunlight is a natural mood booster, so getting outdoors for even just a few minutes can (ideal 20 mins)

3) Make a healthy breakfast: Eating a nutritious breakfast helps to jump-start your metabolism and provides you with the energy you need to get through the day.

4) Exercise: Exercise releases endorphins, which have mood-boosting properties.
