  • Cosmic Observations: Fire, Earth, and Things in Between

    Lately my Instagram feed is basically a full-blown compatibility seminar: fire x earth signs, moon vs. sun interactions, complementary vs. matching moon phases… you know, all the cosmic tea. Naturally, I checked. Of course I checked. Because curiosity is a sign of evolution, or maybe just a Virgo thing, let’s not overthink. 

    And let’s not forget what my mother said when I tried blaming the stars for my indecisive, quick-to-change-my-mind, sometimes-called-moody behavior. I jokingly told her, “Clearly, you gave birth to me at the wrong time. I should have been a Libra or a Gemini.” Without missing a beat, she looked me dead in the eye and said, “Let’s not blame the signs for this. You are clearly… well… you.” Which in mom terms, she is calling me special. Classic mom wisdom, straight to the point.

    From experience, here’s what I’ve noticed: when someone’s moon is in your sun, or vice versa, it’s vibe central. Think: instant “I feel really comfortable around you” energy. Soul-snack-level vibes. Strong Wi-Fi connection, chilling at a cozy lounge with a hot beverage where conversations keep flowing, and laughter is very much present where everyone can be themselves without pretending.

    Then I checked my parents’ charts. Twins, basically. And me? I once had a thing with someone whose Placidus chart twinned mine to the angles. Intensity, my friends. Top-tier, fireworks-in-your-chest, transformative intensity. Not during… but during the aftermath. Because apparently the universe likes to hand you the emotional fire extinguisher after it’s already set things ablaze.

    And then there’s moon phase compatibility. Someone with complementary moon phases? Easy. Flowy. Vibey. Like bending water together. Fluent. Words just come out and the other gets them. No subtitles needed.

    Matching moon phases, though? Now that’s a whole other level of intensity. Like, “I didn’t sign up for this, but apparently somethings need to break open again for more growth” type intense. Not through trauma or melodrama, but via these focused, cleansing fires. Uncomfortable. Transformative. You’d cry, you’d laugh, you’d merge, you’d question your life choices… and somehow, something entirely new would emerge. A whole new era. A path you can’t walk in fear. Kind of like bending fire, if we’re sticking with Avatar metaphors. Only… I’d need a master to show me how.

    Speaking of Avatar: I’d be a water bender, naturally, with some air-bending tendencies, a green thumb, and some hidden fire skills. Because yes, I spent the majority of my life hiding my fire. Typical.

    Speaking of elements… there are hand types. Yes, apparently our hand shapes represent elements. I have fire hands. Chemistry sparks with people who have earth hands, or at least, one of the only two people I’ve ever had real chemistry with happen to have earth hands. Fire and earth. 

    As for air or water hands? Nope. Can’t vibe. It’s like we’re from different planets. They drift through my life like background characters in a movie I didn’t even know I was directing, and we do not understand each other. 

    And then there are all the connections we aren’t even nudged to investigate. How many more coincidences (wink, wink) and synchronicities are floating around, waiting for us to notice? Do we find them because we actively look, or are we nudged to look because, deep down, we already know we’d find them? Cosmic little game of peek-a-boo, basically.

    Humans are endlessly fascinating. Human connections? Cosmic-level interesting. Astrological charts? Fun for data analysis and sipping tea on a family vacation in a rural area with not that much to do, but let’s not pretend a birth date predicts everything. Planetary movements influence us, sure, but there is no mystical Wi-Fi that writes your life script. (Although if there were, I’d want an upgrade to premium.)

    So yes, check the charts. Observe. Laugh. Note patterns. But if you vibe with someone supposedly “incompatible”? Congratulations, you’re officially a cosmic rebel. And maybe, just maybe, the planets are cheering for you anyway.

  • Don’t Run From Yourself (You’ll Catch Up Anyway)

    At some point in life, you realize there is no such thing as “the future.” Not in the dramatic psychic hotline sense, but in the mildly inconvenient, existential way. Everything is apparently happening at once, and time is just… how we keep ourselves from panicking.

    Which means the thing you’ve been running toward (or away from) has probably been right there the whole time. Some of us feel things before reality as we perceive catches up. We get called “psychic.” No. We are just tuned into time differently than the average person.

    What we like to label intuition, telepathy, or how did I know that? isn’t a superpower. It’s not witchcraft. It’s not even particularly sexy. It’s just… being tuned in. To yourself. To others you resonate to. To your patterns. To that quiet inner signal that’s been trying to get your attention while you were busy refreshing your phone and questioning every decision you’ve ever made.

    It’s not mind-reading. It’s just frequency recognition. Once you know how something feels: a person, a city, a situation, you can sense it from miles away. Like a radio station. Some frequencies fade. Some don’t. Some stay stubbornly on air like a song you didn’t ask Spotify to play but now somehow know all the lyrics to.

    Have I mastered turning every frequency off? Absolutely not. But I have mastered turning my back. And I mastered not getting swayed away with all the coincidences and reminders that still manage to find me everyday. I mastered not giving an emotional response, other than cracking up once in a while when they get too ridiculous. And honestly, that’s an underrated life skill.  

    The more connected you are to yourself, the less random life feels. Patterns start revealing themselves. Yours. Theirs. Life’s. And yes, awareness can feel a little boring. Like being the only sober person at a party. But it’s also what keeps you from replaying the same emotional storyline with a different cast and a slightly worse ending.

    That’s one of the points life on Earth tries teaching. Not running from yourself. Not outsourcing your direction to fate, tarot cards, exes, or the universe’s customer service department, which in my humble opinion, doesn’t exist the way we wish it would.

    Because when you’re connected to you, you already know where you’re going. And suddenly the people and opportunities that appear make sense. Suddenly you’re less busy forcing outcomes and more comfortable letting timing do its thing.

    Once you start noticing how interconnected everything is: people, places, timing, moods, you notice something else too: alignment is contagious. When you’re aligned with yourself, aligned people show up. Aligned opportunities knock. Aligned chaos waits politely instead of kicking the door in.

    Funny how that works. The moment I stopped obsessing over destiny and started trusting myself (while handing the truly uncontrollable bits over to God), life aligned in ways I never could’ve planned. I wanted the “go with the flow” last year. I got it. Just not in the aesthetic, Pinterest-board way I imagined.

    Turns out clarity doesn’t always arrive loudly. It comes with fires that burn down the masks, storms that blow out the dead skin away, and then it just you on the shoulder and says, Relax. You’ve been on the right path longer than you think. 

  • Looking Down on the Circuit Board

    Have you ever had the sneaking suspicion that your future self has been quietly running the show this whole time?

    We’re taught to romanticize fate. Destiny. As if life were some external force dangling clues in front of us, daring us to interpret them correctly. We wait for signs. We wait for permission. But what if the guidance we’re looking for isn’t coming from out there at all?

    What if “future you” is already whispering in your ear, because everything is happening at once, and we’re just stuck experiencing it like a linear Netflix episode instead of the full series drop on multiple screens watching it al at once?

    Picture a motherboard.

    Time isn’t something that passes. It’s the board itself. You’re not the board; you’re the signal moving across it. Your choices light up different pathways. Free will is which traces activate. Intuition? Signal feedback from other nodes. Past, present, future, all online simultaneously.

    Some routes glow. Some stay dark. Maybe somewhere, in another version of you, those dormant paths are fully powered. The whole system already exists: you’re just experiencing which circuits youenergize through thought, attention, and choice.  Perception and decisions. 

    Zoom out far enough and sure, the mainframe is the universe. Obviously. But here’s the thing: when we feel like we have no free will, it’s usually because we’ve hardwired ourselves too tightly into the mainframe: outsourcing our knowing instead of listening inward.

    I’m not saying free will is an illusion. I’m saying it’s more internal than we think.

    The more we trust ourselves, the more we stay in our bodies, the more present our energy becomes, the louder the signal gets. When the analytical mind finally shuts up for five minutes, something else comes online. Something quieter. Older. Smarter.

    That’s when time stops feeling linear. That’s when you feel close to creation. To unity. To the universe.

    And to yourself.

    I couldn’t help but wonder… In a world where the answers were never ahead of us, but already humming beneath our feet, waiting for us to notice which path lights up next, how can we maximize the input? 

  • Mission: Inner Peace (Now With Extra Sass)

    Nothing whispers “mission accomplished” softer than uniting with your own energy after years of chasing nervous system regulation like it was a limited-edition NFT. Yeah. I said it. Me, myself, and my vibe: finally in alignment. Chill, calm, and absolutely unwilling to outsource my peace ever again.

    And then there’s my creative spark. Oh, the elusive little rascal. Vanished years ago like it was dodging taxes, only to waltz back in a few nights ago with, “Hi, remember me? Let’s doodle.” Not AI-generated, thank you very much. AI could try, but it doesn’t have my brain’s level of chaotic brilliance. My head is basically a Pinterest board for symbolic dreams, very specific snack cravings, mixing things I love (the Aare, fondue and the animals at Dählhölzli) into an artwork. Think an alternate universe Bern where the Aare is flowing fondue, the herbivorous zoo animals have turned into cheese eaters, and they’re having a “fondueschwumm” meanwhile the carnivorous ones are BBQing at Eichholz. Don’t worry they bought the meats from supermarkets, no zoo animals were harmed making these illustrations. Yay my child level absurd creativity is back. 

    So there I am, cozy-ass apartment, candles flickering like tiny, passive-aggressive cheerleaders, fake sunlight doing its best impression of a tropical vacation, playful music playing like it has insider knowledge of my mood swings. I’m drawing. Then I’m sawing wood. Sanding it. Smelling the nostalgia of sawdust from childhood… it’s literally the adult version of playing with Lego, but with a hint of meditative stillness. Maybe I inherited some of my dad’s craftsmanship genes, maybe I’m just happy to have something that doesn’t require Wi-Fi.

    Oh, and yes, I’m on a social-media hiatus. Hermit mode: activated. I posted my illustrations in my stories, called my mom (hi, mom!), that’s it. No notifications. No external stimulation. Just me, my thoughts, and the occasional existential chuckle.

    Because sometimes, hermit mode isn’t “antisocial,” it’s the height of self-love. It’s a soft rebellion against chaos: “I’m too peaceful to scroll. I will eat the Rösti and let my tastebuds dance. I will sip my tea. I will spend time with my plants.”

    In the quietest, softest way, life throws random surges of happiness at me as well. Love. Gratitude. Little nudges that feel like someone sprinkled edible glitter on my aura. It feels… yummy. Like, I-can’t-believe-this-is-real-but-it-is yummy.

    And the icing on the cake? My inner runner and inner chaser finally RSVPed “yes” to the self-love party. No drama, no chasing, no fleeing. The party has one strict dress code: heart-centered vibes only. And the DJ? Yours truly, spinning only tracks approved by my nervous system.

    So here I am. Peaceful, calm, armed with my art, my sawdust, my emergency fondue and chocolate stashes, and a renewed appreciation for the absurdity of being human. No Bern. No cosmic outsourcing. Just me. My vibes. My energy.

    And truly? I’ve entered my “I lived, I healed, and I’m kinda hot about it” era. I’m living proof you can survive full‑body ego extractions, spiritual plot twists that make telenovelas look subtle, dark nights, emotional detoxes, cosmic curveballs, karmic escape rooms, entanglements so confusing they deserved subtitles, identity deaths, resurrection arcs, and whatever the hell you call “healing while inhaling sawdust.”

    And somehow? I came out of it with good skin, working chakras, and a nervous system that no longer files HR complaints about my lifestyle.

    So no, I wasn’t supposed to be a monk. Or the next Buddha!? I’m still me, just healed and regulated. Plus balanced, finally. I’ve been craving balance more than some Libras I know. 

    But here’s the humbling part: I’m fully aware life might drag me into another dark night if there’s more junk to peel off. And that’s fine (optionally I can really live without one.) But right now? I’m enjoying the absolute hell out of this peace.

    Because me (and the pillows that have absorbed several liters of my emotional hydration), we earned this era.

    And I’m unapologetically YAYing to that.

  • Maybe Spirituality Was Never Supposed to Be a Practice

    I used to think I wasn’t spiritual at all. I couldn’t sit still to meditate, what I did to ground myself suspiciously looked like walking barefoot in the park, and every time someone said “visualize light,” my brain responded with: how about we just feel it instead?

    For a while, I felt guilty about that. Like I was missing some invisible membership card to the Enlightened People’s Club.

    But then, one day, somewhere between the flow of the Aare and the rhythm of a Swiss-German song I couldn’t stop humming with dragonflies landing on my body, I realized: I am meditating. Just not in the way people say I should.

    Maybe spirituality isn’t meant to look like sitting cross-legged with your eyes closed. Maybe it’s just being fully alive. Maybe meditative states happen naturally when your feet touch earth, not when your mind repeats affirmations. When you come across an animal, an insect, a bird and your heart’s walls melt. When you’re in a city that feels like home and you don’t have to do anything else but be. 

    Maybe alignment isn’t found in routine, but in recognition, the moment you notice how your entire being lights up in certain places, around certain people, under certain skies. 

    Maybe meditation is as simple as relaxing your body when its automatic reflex is to tighten up from cold. Maybe it’s keeping yourself calm in a sauna when your heart races. Maybe it’s balancing on a board or holding onto a boulder. Maybe it’s focusing on your breath to fall asleep, or on an ascent when your heart is racing.

    Maybe your flow state is when you’re going down a mountain on your bike. Maybe it’s hearing the sound of moving water. Maybe it’s being underwater. Getting kissed by the sun. Feeling the salt on your skin. Gliding through powder, or the waves. Carving on your skateboard. Whispers of wind that feel like freedom. Birdsong at 4AM. Morning red, evening pastels. Watching the clouds drift laying on grass. Smelling the air after rain or just before snow.

    Some souls don’t come here to follow the steps. We come here to remember that there were never any to begin with. We can find the spark in anything. We can turn anything into purpose. We can be anything our heart calls us to be. 

    We find divinity in movement, in breath, in laughter, in mistakes, in the way the world mirrors us back to ourselves. And when we stop trying to do it “right,” that’s when we finally realize; we’ve been doing it right all along. We don’t need a label for the way we choose to live this human experience we call life.

    So no, you won’t see me in linen clothing with crystals, affirmations, or with the wild eyes of the people who’ve spent too much time in Bali. But you will see me living my life with awareness.

  • To the Source (And Back Again)

    In Matrix Revolutions, Neo had to go to the Source. By that point, he’d chosen love over fear, stepped outside yet another system of control (hi, Zion), followed the pull of his dreams, and just knew. Even if it meant he might never return.

    But what if the Source was never out there in some glowing, code-filled mainframe? Or an eternal library filled with countless books (that’s what I used to imagine it as.) What if it’s been inside us the whole time, sitting quietly in our subconscious, waiting for us to listen?

    The more I think about it, the more I wonder if “going to the Source” was always a metaphor for diving inward.

    What if every time we meditate, dream, or follow a gut nudge, we’re not channeling something external, we’re simply unlocking deeper layers of ourselves?

    We underestimate the subconscious. It’s an infinite hard drive we barely access. Sometimes I think it already understands everything (every language, even the ones animals speak), it’s just our conscious mind that hasn’t caught up yet.

    Because here’s the thing, neuroscience already told us this. Ninety-five percent of what we think, feel, and decide happens below conscious awareness. We’re not driving the car; we’re the passenger who thinks they’re steering while the GPS (subconscious) just lets us believe it.

    Maybe the downloads we receive aren’t cosmic emails from some divine cloud storage. Maybe they’re reflections: things we’ve seen, heard, or sensed without realizing, all reorganized into clarity. Maybe the “guidance” is just us remembering what we already know. What our ancestors knew. What our predecessors had discovered. And all the evolutionary knowledge has been stored in our DNA and maybe that’s how we’ve been progressing. 

    Because meditation, breathwork, cold plunges: they don’t open some mystical portal; they just quiet the narrator. That loud ego voice that thinks it knows everything. Once that shuts up, the subconscious finally gets to speak. And suddenly, you hear it. You feel it. You know things you can’t explain.

    There’s even a network in our brains: the Default Mode Network, that lights up when we stop trying. When we’re spacing out, shower-thinking, walking by a river. That’s where the revelations drop. That’s where intuition hits us like lightning out of nowhere, except it’s not “out of nowhere.” It’s been you, whispering to you, the whole damn time.

    And here’s the wildest part, science also says our nervous systems literally sync with other people’s. Heartbeats, breathing, micro-expressions. we’re basically walking WiFi routers of energy. Mirror neurons, baby. You feel someone’s vibe before they even talk because your bodies already started the conversation.

    So maybe “oneness” isn’t woo-woo. Maybe it’s just biology we haven’t caught up with yet.

    So no, Neo didn’t go anywhere. He went in. He went in and surrendered. 

    And that’s the move, isn’t it? Not to escape the Matrix, but to unplug from the noise long enough to remember what’s already running inside you. That the Source isn’t a destination. It’s an integration.

    The moment you stop outsourcing wisdom to the sky and realize…

    We’ve been the Source all along.

  • The Original System of Control

    Somewhere between the first spark of language and the first wall built from stone, humanity made a deal with fear. We traded freedom for structure, and called it civilization.

    From that moment on, every system we’ve created has been an echo of the same impulse: the need to control what we don’t understand. We built religion to escape chaos, capitalism to escape scarcity, and spirituality to escape ego. And every single one eventually hardened into another cage. Bent and hid truth beneath fear, control, and interest.

    That’s the paradox no one likes to look at: Our escapes always become our prisons.

    The Matrix told us this decades ago, that even the idea of freedom can be scripted. Zion, the city of the awakened, was just another form of control. Even the One was an algorithmic anomaly designed to keep the system stable. But love: the code that couldn’t be predicted, categorized, or controlled, broke the loop. Neo and Trinity didn’t just escape the Matrix; they transcended it. They remembered that freedom doesn’t come from destroying the system, but from seeing through it.

    That’s the same lesson humanity keeps missing. Every time we evolve, we just build a prettier version of the cage. We replace one god with another, one ideology with its opposite. The binary itself: good and evil, light and dark, awakened and asleep, is the real prison.

    Look back far enough, and you’ll see the same pattern in our origin story. There wasn’t just one kind of human.

    There were many: sapiens, neanderthals, denisovans, coexisting for a time. And then, only one survived.

    We like to call that evolution, but maybe it was the first act of separation. The first Matrix. The moment humanity decided it was safer to dominate than to coexist.

    Since then, we’ve just been building more sophisticated versions of that original illusion, more elaborate systems of “us vs. them.” From tribes to nations, from gods to markets, from religions to algorithms. We keep building walls around infinity, manipulating circumstances we cannot understand to fit it in structured boxes and dogmatism.

    But the truth was never meant to be contained. It breathes, it mutates, it dissolves structures. It’s not the light or the dark, it’s the pulse between them.

    Maybe the real awakening isn’t more division. Maybe it isn’t deciding which sub-category of the same human species you belong to. Maybe it’s accepting that we are all one, connected and having a human experience all together. Maybe the point is unity through acceptance. 

    That’s when love reclaims its original function: not as emotion, not as attachment, but as the frequency of wholeness.

    And maybe that’s all “The One” ever meant, the remembrance that we were never divided to begin with.

  • Matrix

    They say we were born into a system of control. That we live inside a simulation. That somewhere out there, someone, or something, is pulling the strings.

    But what if there’s no “out there”? What if we did it?

    Once upon a time, we were just wild things under starlight, sleeping by rivers, trusting instinct more than reason. Then we started to gather, and to gather we needed rules. And rules needed rulers. And rulers needed followers. And before we knew it, the code was written.

    Civilization began as a survival hack, a way to make sure our fires stayed lit and our bellies stayed full. But like every invention, it turned around and started inventing us. Agriculture created hierarchy. Writing created bureaucracy. Religion created moral control. Money created worth systems. And the internet? It created an economy out of attention.

    We wanted safety. We wanted love. We wanted belonging. And to get them, we started building walls: around our cities, around our hearts, around our very sense of self.

    Fast-forward a few millennia, and now we scroll through our own architecture: screens, systems, currencies, careers. All the digital temples built to worship the illusion of control. We call it progress. But it’s just the next version of the same software.

    And here’s the cosmic joke: even those of us who say we’re “waking up” are still playing by the same rules, only now it’s spiritual capitalism, emotional branding, and ego dressed in enlightenment. The Matrix 2.0: the Conscious Edition. 

    But maybe awakening isn’t about unplugging. Maybe it’s about remembering who built the system, and realizing the code still answers to you. Because awareness changes everything. When you see it, you can shape it. When you own it, you’re no longer owned.

    Maybe the goal isn’t to escape the Matrix at all. Maybe it’s to become conscious within it, to use the system without being used by it. To love without losing ourselves. To earn without being owned. To play the game, but never forget we’re the ones holding the controller.

    Maybe we’re not meant to burn the Matrix down. Maybe we’re meant to turn its architecture into art: to live as the glitch that reminds the world it’s dreaming.

  • The Intuitive Person’s Survival Manual (A.K.A. How to Decode Signs Without Losing Your Mind)

    If you’re anything like me, someone who receives divine communication through signs, dreams, songs, repeating numbers, random strangers that look like your ex, and the occasional billboard that seems way too specific, then this is your manual. You know, for when your brain is trying to figure out whether that butterfly was your spirit guide, or just a butterfly.

    Here’s the deal. When something truly is a sign, you don’t question it. You just know. It lands with that internal ding! The one that makes you go, “Yep, that was for me.” But when you see something that grabs your attention and your brain goes into a full decoding spiral like, “Okay, but does this mean something!?” It’s not a sign. That’s your ego trying to play scavenger hunt with the universe.

    Premonitions, on the other hand, hit different. They come with a knowing that’s so obvious it’s borderline annoying. You don’t have to decode it, you just understand. You could be half-asleep, half-delirious, and still know what it means. Cleary. 

    Now, dreams are a special case. Some are cinematic masterpieces filled with hidden symbolism and emotional trauma disguised as plot twists. Others are just… weird. (Like that one where you’re eating spaghetti on the moon, no, that one’s not prophetic, that’s just your subconscious being weird again.) But even then, deep down, you know which dreams matter and which ones are just your brain cleaning up emotional clutter.

    The point is: if you find yourself confused and the message isn’t clear, move on. Don’t make a PowerPoint presentation out of it. Don’t Google “meaning of blue feather and broken shoelace together.” If it’s not landing with clarity, it’s not a message. The ones that matter always come with a clear mental download, like a spiritual push notification that just pops into your awareness. Every single time that’s happened to me, it matched reality. The vague ones? Never did. Not once.

    Sometimes the messages are tiny and seemingly irrelevant, like getting a song that randomly plays and later turns out to have predicted your next chapter. Sometimes they’re huge and life-changing. We don’t get to pick what we receive. Apparently, the universe is the one running the group chat. We just have to figure out what’s worth replying to.

    In my experience, the “smaller” signs often mirror the energy of the bigger ones that haven’t yet manifested. Think of them as sneak previews, or cosmic teaser trailers. Some dreams I’ve relived months later, sometimes five, six, even seven months after. Once, I was a year and a half early. I’d love to say that means I’m ahead of my time, but it’s really just the universe running on its own Netflix release schedule.

    Here’s what I’ve learned: when you do get guidance, just take the hint and do what’s needed. Don’t try to rewrite the ending. I’ve tried. Didn’t work. The outcome always came, just… delayed sometimes. Which, yes, makes me deeply question free will. Like, if I can’t change the ending, why am I even getting the spoilers?

    Maybe it’s less about control, and more about preparation. The universe doesn’t send signs so you can fix the future, it sends them so you can understand it when it happens.

    So, dear intuitive human, the next time you catch yourself overanalyzing the alignment of your morning playlist, take a breath. Not every cloud formation is a cosmic code. Some are just clouds.

    And maybe that’s the real wisdom here: If you have to ask whether it’s a sign, it probably isn’t. If you just know, it probably is. And if you’re still unsure, maybe just get a snack and let the universe text you back later.

  • Do It Your Way

    In 2020, when I first dipped my toes into Kundalini Yoga, I was determined. Like, full-on “new me” mode. I was going to wake up at 5am, dry brush like a goddess, take an ice-cold shower that would supposedly “awaken my DNA,” and meditate to Sadhana before the sun even remembered to rise. Spoiler alert: I lasted awhile. Maybe two months if we count the days I thought about doing it but hit snooze instead.

    Needless to say, I couldn’t keep up with it and gave up on Kundalini Yoga entirely. But here’s the funny part, even though I abandoned the practice, I listened to Kundalini kriyas like they were the only songs ever released. It was all mantras and the occasional meditations at night for a solid year. At the time, I didn’t know why I loved them so much. I just knew they made me feel… lighter. Like I had my own private cosmic concerts.

    Fast forward to the end of 2025. I’ve gone through my fair share of dark nights of the soul, awakenings, and breakdowns disguised as breakthroughs. Somewhere in between reaching “flow state” just by being physically present in a particular city, and laying on my couch overthinking, I figured something out; how to do it my way.

    Now? I get up when I wake up. No 5am alarms, no punishment schedules, no “sit-down and focus on your breath” meditations. I drink my coffee in peace. I play my Kundalini kriyas while journaling, doing an easy yoga flow without yoga instructors, and balancing on my wobble board like a spiritual circus act. I take warm showers afterwards. I eat breakfast when I’m hungry, not when a wellness influencer says I should. I still check Instagram (yes, I know, very un-yogi of me). I listen to Swiss German pop songs on the metro, do my work, read my book, maybe binge a show, maybe go out, and I go to bed when I’m tired, which somehow started being around 10 or 11pm. My old night owl self could never. I play my frequency playlist in the background when I’m sleeping. 

    I found a rhythm that fits me; a mix of modern human chaos and ancient soul wisdom. I’m living in the physical world but from a higher consciousness, taking care of my mind, my body, and my soul without overcomplicating it. The goal isn’t to ascend: it’s to integrate. Some days my higher self drives. Some days it’s my inner child. Most of the time it’s my inner feminine and masculine navigating through life like a healthy couple. And on bad days, my ego takes the wheel and speeds, but hey, at least now I notice when it does.

    Maybe that’s how we’re meant to do it in 2025. Living in cities, juggling jobs, paying bills, and still finding moments to breathe, connect, and tune in. It doesn’t have to be full monk mode or full matrix mode. We can live in 3D with 5D awareness.

    There’s no one right way to do this thing. The point is to find your way, the one that feels good, not forced. And some days, you’ll totally fall off the wagon, but that’s fine. You can climb back on whenever you want.

    Because at the end of the day, we’re not monks. We’re modern mystics trying to keep plants alive, make rent, and stay grounded while ascending, preferably with good coffee and a decent playlist.

    And maybe, just maybe, that’s the new age way of doing it. Our way.
