You see a chart.

So I'm going to shout out one of my favorite astrologers, Chani Nicholas.

We love Chani and we love Chani's birth chart app inside of her website.

What Chani does that I think is amazing is that oftentimes when you pull up someone else's chart elsewhere, you'll see these symbols on a circle, on a wheel.

And then you'll see a bunch of lines going through that symbol.

There'll be red lines and blue lines, and it can look very intimidating.

And what that's demonstrating is the relationship that each planet or placement has to another planet or placement on the chart.

All of those things are energies happening all at the same time in the chart.

My first experience when I saw that was like, oh my God, there are 35 red lines going across my chart, which almost feels like when someone marks up a paper you wrote with a bunch of red lines.

I was like, okay, obviously I'm failing at my entire life, right?

And what actually is happening is all of the planets in the sky, the moment that we were born,

are in conversation with other planets in the sky the moment that we were born.

And those energies all exist.

But you're not plucking every string of energy all at once.

The way I describe it is, you're born and your life is like a harp.

And the universe, God, source, whatever you want to call it, will pluck some strings.

There are things that are going to happen in your life that are out of your control.

People will die.

People will be born.

Incidents will happen.
