Don't let your birth chart define you

Welcome to a new post, dear Hiver!

A few days ago, a video appeared on Tiktok about the type of beauty you have according to the matrix of destiny. I was curious so I started to see what this matrix that they talked about so much was about.

I put my date of birth on a website that gave you your matrix and started to read what it said.

Without a doubt, it was interesting, it hit the nail on the head with some things, while with others it didn't. I also did it with my sister, and something caught my attention, they were the same paragraphs that had appeared to me.

I didn't pay much attention to it because I don't believe in these things.

Since I was a child, the TV is always left on to listen to something while we cook or do anything at home. So we listened to the horoscope. I always made jokes about it, at times I was a little scared of the predictions. I was afraid of what the tarot lady said would happen.

As I grew up, I realized that it's just entertainment. And that you don't have to pay much attention to it, because what a card, a matrix, or a number says doesn't define you.

My grandfather believed in this kind of thing for a while. Until one day a "witch" (this is the name that is commonly used here for them, I don't know if it is correct to call it that, hence the quotation marks) told him that he should go to bed and stay there.

My grandfather went to bed, and he was never who he was again.

This kind of thing can have a great influence on people. Not because they have "magic powers," but because people believe in it so faithfully that they allow it to define them, guide them in their lives, or destroy them.

However, this goes further. While I was thinking about it, I realized that you can't say "witchcraft, tarot and santeria are to blame for the evils of the world." No.

People are the ones who do harm.

There are people who can say many things, good or bad. And that is what we have to observe and take care of. Who we faithfully obey, who we tell our personal problems to, who we open the door to our heart and our home to.

I don't believe in magic, tarot or anything like that. But, if someone believes in it, I respect it. Each person has their own beliefs, which must be respected even if they are not shared.

So, I wouldn't say that "someone takes care" of this type of things, because the reality is that we can see similar situations even within churches, or in people who do not believe in anything spiritually.

Which is what we know as people with negative energy. In life there will be people who tell us various things, such as that we are very bad at something, at editing videos, at making videos, at creating content, at singing, at dancing, at our work...

And there are people who really want to help us by telling us what we fail at so that we can improve. But, there are also people who do not do it with the best intentions. Wow! This is difficult, even I wonder sometimes how can I tell the difference? But there is something that tells us this, something that I can't even explain.

So there is nothing wrong with people's beliefs, as long as they are used for good, to support, to encourage, to help people get up.

Let's use those beliefs in a positive way, and the world will be a better place.
