How astrology gives you limiting beliefs is something I figured out quite late in life. The reason you should stay away from astrology, majorly because it’s a way of having a sense of control on the outcome when you have no control over it. I belong to a traditional, well respected Indian family where Pandits (Priest) are like a family members. I have noticed something interesting in people who excessively rely on Pandits for future prediction is that they lack action, confidence and direction in life. So rather than looking within, they seek control of their life from the outside. Believing others is better for them than believing in their strong inner voices that are already guiding them.
How astrology gave me limiting beliefs:
After reading my life’s chart (Kundali), I saw few things that I was very happy and unhappy about. For example, my Kundali mentioned a few countries that I will visit. And I didn’t like it when my favourite countries wasn’t in that list. Ever since I read that list, my brain automatically stops me to think about my personal favourite countries saying, “Ughh I am not destined to go there what’s the point” It shook my belief system that I can ever visit those countries and somehow I subconsciously stopped taking efforts towards that as well. There you have it, one limiting belief created.
Today, after many years of practicing gratitude and abundance, when I look back to that country list, I feel happy that I will get to visit those places. But I don’t want to be told about it before and create those limits in my brain where I stop thinking about my favourite countries. If I get to visit them great, and if I don’t, still great. I didn’t like the fact that my brain completely stopped thinking about my personal preferences for a while after reading my Kundali and started working towards what’s already written for me. I believe in letting life unfold itself and believe you can turn your life around the way you want to.
Limiting beliefs restrict you so much and if you are not aware of your own thoughts, it might be the biggest enemy of all in your growth.
We all have limiting thoughts in our heads that are poisonous to our brain and prevents the positive law of attraction and creates a huge amount of limiting beliefs that we want to stay away from.
Life can have it’s own plan and I will have my own plan because life didn’t tell me about her plans. Keep moving forward in life putting your best efforts and capabilities forward. Have gratitude for whatever you have and openness to whatever comes. Best way to live life is to let life show you how incredible it can be and how painful it can be at times to help you figure out your strengths.
It’s Okay to not have control:
I am not speaking against or in favour of astrology, I am just saying it creates limiting beliefs and makes us believe that our life is not in our hands at all and everything is already controlled by something mystical and our efforts means nothing at all. I have taken so many life decisions so far that challenge the astrology of my life.
Whenever life gets hard and out of control we turn to astrology for answers because we don’t have the patience to wait for life to give us the answers. Maybe we don’t trust ourselves sometimes that how powerful we are to turn our lives around in a better way. No matter how challenging the situation is right now, we turn to astrology.
May be my pain and slight resentment with astrology is coming from seeing people turning to astrology for things that are completely under their control and still waiting for things to happen, because Pandit ji said so. All I am saying, we need to learn the healthy control of life, we need to understand, that there are certain things we can control and certain things we cannot and that’s completely okay. You are paying a very high price by creating limiting beliefs just to find answers right away.
