At Least, According to Astrology

We all know that our twenties aren’t all fun and parties like our parents had us believe when we were kids. Growing up adulthood was made to look so appealing, and I guess, had they been more honest, maybe we would have never tried to grow up in the first place.

From figuring out how to pay bills, rent, and having a career, all while navigating a less than desirable political landscape, and shitty dates who waste your time because some dumbass just had to invent the dating app, our twenties are already setup to be pretty challenging. The only people who say your twenties are easy, are those who slacked off by drinking and partying, and are now paying for it in their thirties. Psychologically and spiritually, it can sometimes even feel impossible to push through, but what if I were to say there’s deeper explanation for all of it? What if almost everything that happens in your twenties, is just the motivation you need to become a better person? Now I’m not pushing any schemes or hush theories on you, but regardless of what you think about astrology, there is something to explain all of these challenges, and once you know what it is, you’ll be better equipped to ride the storm and sail towards [hopefully] calmer waters.

Astrologically speaking, in our twenties there are five big transits that happen to everyone. If you want to know what those are, feel free to access the rest of this article on my Patreon!
