The information was both wonderful and overwhelming at the same time. After completing the Primordial Powers of Creation course, I’m now beginning to see how the energies of the planets unfold. It evokes the same sense of awe I feel when looking at images from the James Webb Space Telescope.
My capacity for compassion and wonder has deepened even further, and this has helped me see how the yamas and niyamas truly function as seeds for the continued unfoldment of higher consciousness.

I understood that the objective of the course was to cultivate self-knowledge and spiritual harmony, and it truly delivered. The most valuable thing I gained was a practical way to reflect on my life and honestly assess how I am doing.
Working with my birth chart—contemplating my life through the houses, planetary aspects and indications, karmic strengths, and lajitaadi avasthas—has been a deeply healing and forgiving experience. There were past experiences and choices that I once viewed with regret. Through this reflective process, I can now see the growth that emerged from them and recognize the good that came from it all.

Thank you for the Vedic Astrology course—it has been truly transformative for me. I enjoyed it deeply and plan to revisit the material over the coming year to continue deepening my understanding.
Before this course, astrology played very little role on my path. Now, working with my own chart has helped me recognize long-standing karmic patterns that had limited my growth for decades and begin to work with them consciously. It has also increased my patience, compassion, and effectiveness in relationships, allowing me to engage with others more skillfully and without taking things personally. The benefits have been wide-ranging, and I’m genuinely grateful for what this course has opened up for me.
