What Your Sign Says About How You Love: Chani Nicholas (Best Of)

I'm like, no. Also, I think, I don't know if you all feel the same, but I feel like writing about my childhood helps me almost the most in understanding that humans, you know, are human and people that raised me were very young, mixed up. humans and a lot of pain. And it helps me to have some perspective on it and understand that none of it was personal. It just wasn't about me.

It impacted me in some really severe ways. That's been my life's work, but the things that happened to me weren't ever about me. And I think that writing that is really helpful. And then having their own astrological context and has also been really healing for me, for sure.

It was kind of similar to having that first astrological reading. You know, there's one thing about writing something personal and then there's a whole other thing about putting it in a book and having it be like in a literal form and then that thing going out and you've got no control over it anymore. Like if I write in my journal, no one ever has to see it.

But when you put something out into the world, what it did is it shaped me again. Like I felt the parameters and what happened for me after the book came out is every night for months, I'd go to bed and I'd be like, did that really happen? Did it, did I lie? Did I make that all up? You were self gaslighting.

And that is so excruciatingly painful. And it was also just part of my process, but I really felt kind of like, I don't know if I should have done that. Like I second guessed myself the whole way for months and it took a lot of therapy and I barely wrote about myself at all. Like it's a very small little piece of the book, but even putting out that much was wild for me.

And it helped me to just say at the end of the day, that's my story. And I'm not putting it out in the world in a way that's blaming anyone, but I'm putting it out in the world so that I can understand who I am. And so that other folks might be like, oh, this is a portal in and this is how I got here. And it's so important. It's in everything I do, but it's been very hidden.

And so now I'm in the process of a little bit with this book and writing other things that are much more explicit so that I can also dismantle the monster under the bed of my own life and be like, it's okay. Like these scary things happen. They don't have power over me because also they weren't personal.
