I was rewatching Hamilton today. And I noticed something curious...
In Schuyler Defeated, Hamilton accuses Burr of changing parties and taking his father-in-law's senate seat as something personally against him. When Burr was just doing it for his own benefit, to rise 'up and up again.' He warns Hamilton against his pride and how it will be the thing to make him fall one day.
Then, in Your Obedient Servant, Burr says that Hamilton voted for Jefferson, 'endorse his enemy', just to keep him from winning. When Hamilton was doing it mostly for the good of the nation.
Burr was being proud.
That's why, even though Hamilton died, he's the one who lost.
Burr's pride made him fall.

18 and 22 please!!!
22. Do you know how your fic will end before you start writing?
no :D
that's why i mostly post oneshots, i have this idea for a scene and no context, just pure vibes. for longer stories i don't want them to end, i want to play in this sandbox of vibes until i get bored. put a characters in a Situation and see what they do
i HAVE idea for the cave fic end but damn i think it will change a few times along the way
i think 'Beat, Resonance, Unison' is the longest thing i finished and ITS end was changed when I already wrote the intro for the canon accurate last chapter
18. What’s one of your favorite lines you’ve written in a fic?
ohhhhhh this one is hard because most of my favorite lines aren't posted yet- but i REALLY love this little piece from the times when "I Pray My Mind be Good to Me" was just a quick idea in my notes
spoilers???
The Count combs Sifo-Dyas's hair again. The Jedi tells himself to breathe, to breathe through the metallic taste in his mouth, through the images of a tempting past and a hated future. To breathe in this sickening, corrupted moment of the present.
This time the Jedi is sitting, so the Sith walks around him so as not to miss anything.
Tyranus's hands are shaking, and Sifo-Dyas only sees it because he knows how steady they are with the lightsaber. A lightning scar can be seen under his sleeve, something Sifo-Dyas is now very familiar with. He wants to laugh at Tyranus that their positions differ only in that Sifo-Dyas could not leave the cave even if he tried. But what excuse does the Count have? Another part of him just wants to cry. Mourn. It's disgusting.
It's not humiliating to cry in pain, he accepted it. But now, when calloused fingers accidentally touch his temple, straightening the fallen strands… When he can feel the warmth of another body, not heat, but warmth, so close… When he feels the tenderness of movements, like dozens of times before at home, in the Temple…
He wants to bury himself in this warmth, cling to these arms and cry. He wants to crawl into Dooku's chest and curl up there next to his heart, which is still there, and maybe then he will feel whole.
He wants to push Tyranus away, rise up like a snake, twist his shoulders to sink his teeth into this traitor so that he will stop all this. All this tenderness, all this sweetness, which is worse than pain. Doesn't Sifo-Dyas suffer enough?
The Jedi sits motionless, lips pressed into a thin line, and is silent. He doesn't see the pain on the Sith's face when he fastens the hairpin with his usual gesture.

Episode 44 of Kamen Rider Revice
Everything about this episode from the very brief previews I've seen has me stressed, but I'll power through somehow! Spoilers, I guess...
-Even Lovekov knows this is fucked!
-Oooooh, tackle!
-Guess we're all down on the road today.
-My God, he ate Vice.
-"HIKARU MY BRO HIKARU D:"
-Ohhhh, Tamaki...
-OLTECA
-What a very Ikki move.
-Shit's pretty fucked out there, Mama.
-Heyo, Daiji. You uh... you're in desperate need of intervention.
-"That's it, we're fightin'. Meet me in the parking lot in five minutes."
-Jesus Christ George, that's callous.
-Yeah, listen to Hana.
-OHHHHH HE SPEAKS
-So, killing us all once your food source becomes stale, huh? The Lavos approach.
-"Move it bitch."
-Charging right in there, huh Sakura?
-Grandpa Giff.
-Ohhhh, Resonance.
-Ohhhhhh, there she goes!
-...that might've been the hardest L you took all season, tbh. Good job, Sakura-san!
-"Those precious humans you hold so dear will be the breeding stock for which my army of demon spawn will be birthed, my grandson Vice!"
-"Ohhhhh, he out!"
-Goddamn George, you're still at it.
-Ohhhhhhh, Hiromicchi coming back!
-"No. No dying. Stop saying that dumb catchphrase."
-Grandpa Giff is awake.
-Bruh, Daiji
-Let's whoop his ass!
-There he is. Hiromicchi.
-Ohhhhhhh... I think I like that "devotion" line a lot more.
-There he is. Demons.
-Hell yeah, devotion!
-Charge!
-Even when out of the direct fray, Vail's voice still haunts us.
-Are we doin' it?
-Hug him!
-Holy shit, man, my heart...
-Hiromicchi...
-Man, Wataru Hyuga's like... really good at crying.
-OHHHHHH THERE HE IS
-Kagerou!
-Fuck man, I missed you so much.
-There he is.
-OHHHH that aim
-Wow, ok.
-He was hangin' out there. Just vibin'.
-Time to fall, angel boy.
-Evil and Live! Together at last!
-Perfect Wing! Confirmed! Wings for the Future! Wings for the Future! Wings for the Future! Fly High! Perfect Up! Kamen Rider Evilytylive!
-I'm Perfect!
-...wait a fuckin' minute.
-EVILYTYLIVE!? ARE YOU SHITTING ME
-That has the exact same childishly stupid energy as Eeenie Meenie Miney Moe... I fucking love it.
-Hooooooly shit, you look fantastic man.
-Hiromi-san. Good job, bro.
-OHHHHHHH THERE'S EVIL
-OOOOOOOOH FINALLY HE GUNNIN' AND SWORDIN'!
-Sakura! Gomen...
-This is so awesome.
-All that suffering Hyuga-san and Kinoshita-sensei put us through... feels a little worth it now, at least to me.
-So uh... this guy's pretty strong.
-Ohhhh, he's reliable again~!
-Ohhhhhh, they're together!
-HE STOLE THE POSE
-Look at those boys go!
-Let's seal that motherfucker!
-Ohhhhhhhhh, my heart! We did it!
-Suck it, Demon Grandpa!
-Soooo... Kagerou, are you... back back? I'm certainly no expert, but I assume the innerworld you share with
-Ehhhhhhh... close enough? I mean, we did kick his ass, but if Battle Familia and typical season episode counts are any indication, we're not done fightin' yet.
-Good job, Kage-chan~!
-Oh... Dad's dead.
-Fuck, man...
-There they are!
-This is a truly small victory... but it's a wonderful one. If only Genta were here with the whole fam. ...speaking of which, I am very much looking forward to Battle Familia and New True Love Hero.
-Oh great, the demons are comin' out full force!
-...I wonder what Grandpa Giff and Grunkle Diablo's family reunions looked like?

okay okay okay EPISODE 6. I’m still… out of fucking breath. from the last one.
I didn’t plan on live-blogging because then I’d have to keep pausing to type but actually I’m having too much fun, I guess I’m liveblogging now
my posts just keep getting longer and more and more incomprehensible 
I forgot to mention in my last one, but it was a really good call to include the whole “west ravka wants to secede” plot line. it adds a lot, politically, and also adds a sense of urgency. whereas the book is a little bit like, the darkling is kind of a dumbass if you think about it because ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS WAIT LIKE 50 MORE YEARS, WHICH IS NOTHING IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS, but now there’s definitely like. political urgency and necessity that the books don’t convey to the same degree.  
also adds a lot of dimension to What Happens At The End of The Book. which, I’m not there yet, episode-wise. but liiiiiiiiike.
BEN! BARNES! HAS! THE! RANGE! oh I love that they let him be lovesick and terrifying back-to-back like this, god he’s so fucking good. like, we all knew? we all knew this was a stroke of absolute casting genius? but god I don’t think we were actually capable of realizing To What Degree
oh god Inej looking at Alina I’m gonna CRY I actually got teary-eyed??
poor fedyor. he was planning so many double dates and then darklina had to go and breakup. (side note: I am SO INTRIGUED that the darkling thinks ivan is hilarious, so I just think the two “grumpy one/sunshine one” couples should go on a double date. get ravkan ice cream. why can’t this family ever have a funky fresh good time)
“I’ll never let go, helvar”
yo, real talk, why’s the darkling’s bed so short. dOES HE SLEEP WITH HIS LEGS DANGLING OFF THE END. this furniture is absolutely not proportionate to his height at all.
also it’s interesting how often he calls her “miss starkov” instead of alina, considering in the book he’s like “hello alina, how are you alina, alina how is alina today, alina I’ve seen what you truly are alina, FINE alina MAKE alina ME alina YOUR alina.” I’m pretty sure when I first read shadow and bone, literally the only reason I learned alina’s name is because he kept saying it
FASCINATING, CANON ZOYA/DARKLING???????????? honestly don’t know if I like that??? I prefer to think that he has not gotten laid in a couple hundred years because he’s just bad at being a person and isn’t actually as slick as he thinks he is. I cannot believe they un-canoned Zoya/Mal and canon’d this, UNEXPECTED. feels weird. 
on the plus side, I genuinely want a polycule of a solid half the trilogy characters and I guess it’s getting more canon by the minute! this is zoya and her girlfriend alina and alina’s three boyfriends mal, darkling comma the, and nikolai, who are also or have been zoya’s boyfriends at one point or another plus alina’s girlfriend genya who is also zoya’s girlfriend genya and genya’s boyfriend david” I’m allowed a seven-person polyship right?
fedyor and ivan go on double dates with the seven-person polycule. it’s a really tight booth in restaurants. 
also this is zoya’s ex-girlfriend nina who sometimes visits from ketterdam and brings her boyfriend and her girlfriend, and her girlfriend’s boyfriend, and his boyfriend, and his boyfriend.
AND THEN THEY ALL GET BRUNCH, THANK YOU AND GOOD NIGHT
baghra can come too but only because she likes getting day-drunk on mimosas with nikolai and bITCHING with him 
god I miss brunch. and friendship. and cocktails. and human contact. 
anyway back to actually watching this episode
I really like that Alina is about 10x more Actively Involved in everything that happens to her vs. in the first book where she’s more along for the ride
it is emotionally a weird experience to see Mal get pelted with a water bottle and go YEAAH followed by aw nah, he doesn’t deserve that. There is A Mal in another universe who deserves to get pelted by 15 water bottles but it is not this Mal. This Mal can stay. Book Mal is on thin fucking ice and will be pelted with water bottles. But Show Mal is Valid and Allowed. god Archie’s SO FUCKING good. I CANNOT BELIEVE I’M HAVING SOFT FEELINGS ABOUT THIS BUT HERE WE ARE, LIFE IS FULL OF SURPRISES, such is archie’s power and he deserves praise
“Your powers don’t scare me” OHHHHHHH SUCH AN IMPROVEMENT THANK GODDDDDDD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
WHAT the FUCK I am having EMOTIONS over malina scenes
I LOVE NINA SO FUCKING MUCH. I love her endlessly giving Matthias a hard time. he deserves it. god I love HER SHE’S SO GOOD!!!!!!!!
ohhhhhh the MLEMS are FIIIIIGHTING
OHHHHHHHH THE EMO BOYS ARE FIIIIIIIGHTING
oh. my god. they stole the fuckin. they. okay but like, his horsies tho :(((((
KHDFGKSJDFHGSKDFJHGKH DAVID!!!!!! hkdfjhgdfkjghsdfhg d a v id. fjkdhgsdkjfhgdfh dddddaaavviiiiiiidddd. DAVID.
I absolutely love the thought of the darkling, ivan, and david hanging out, because it’s like the three least social people in all of ravka. and they absolutely LOVE one another’s company because no one talks, there is no small talk, and they can just SIT in SILENCE and it’s nICE. sometimes they make brief eye contact and nod a couple times and then go back to politely sitting in silence. 
sdfjkghskhdf his disdainful little ~a d o r a b l e~ about mal and alina deeply resonates with my experiences of reading the books. though AGAIN, WEIRD TO BE HAVING FEELINGS NOW. 
GOD SO NOW I HAVE TO DECIDE!!!!! IT’S SO FUCKING TEMPTING TO WATCH 7 AND 8 TOMORROW NIGHT. IT IS SO TEMPTING. THEN I CAN UNBLACKLIST IT AND REBLOG ALL THE GIFETS.
BUUUUUUUT I have a busy and hectic week and 7 and 8 would be a really nice treat to have waiting for me NEXT Friday as motivation to get through the week
But that also means I have to keep being vigilant about not looking at Content for another week AND IT’S REALLY HARD TO MAINTAIN THAT RESOLVE NOT TO LOOK
god I don’t know what to do. delayed gratification normally comes so naturally to me, this is an actual struggle. I thiiiiiink I’m gonna try and hold off because future!me will be grateful next friday. but mid-week me who wants to look at gifsets will be mad.

2) Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?*screams a little* I NEED TO TELL YOU ABOUT A THING!!
A person in my NaNo region did something incredibly dangerous and they sent me a link to two things, which I had never heard of but for all I know are widely known (I am Captain Oblivious) - Trope Bingo and Trope Bingo Generator and ohhhhhh boy.
I have always struggled with really knowing the trope names. I mean I know the obvious ones like bedsharing, fake dating etc. but I was sure that there were others and I felt like I was in the dark, like everyone somehow had access to a secret list and … wait a minute! Did you all know about this list before hmm? *eyes you suspiciously* :p
But But But anyway that thing is Dangerous - look with a capital D - because I want to write ALL THE THINGS. So I think the answer to “is there a trope I haven’t done yet but want to” is ALL OF THEM!
14) What’s the worst writing advice you’ve ever come across?Ok there was this writing advice book and I read it and had stars in my eyes. I felt like the writer who had penned it was a real person, and a lot of what they said resonated and then they went on to say “if I did it - so can you!” which is the typical spiel of the self-help book but that was incredibly dangerous.
They said a lot of things, but I think the most toxic (for me at least) was the “you either want it or you don’t. If you do want it then you’ll make it happen.” - so basically if you failed, you didn’t try hard enough because you didn’t really want it. The technique he espoused was to get up an hour earlier because if writing was the #1 priority it should be the first thing you do.
I tried, I really did but I get easily tired and I got really vicious on myself for failing. It hurt so much because it felt like I didn’t really want it - but I really did! You see the thing is that advice might be fine for those who are healthy but I have certain issues and my mind and body couldn’t take the strain.
That advice wasn’t for me.
I know this question is supposed to be about some specific technique or something but this experience I had with this writing self-help book scarred me and I wanted to talk about it to say to people, yes the advice might sound perfectly reasonable but everybody is different and don’t beat yourself up if something doesn’t work for you. Don’t destroy yourself because you bought into a line that someone sold you.
15) If you could choose one of your fics to be filmed, which would you choose?Between Two Fires absolutely no question about it. I think the visuals of some fics would be great, I mean The Beauty and the Tragedy is the most ‘artistic’ fic I have ever written, but no it has to be my sci-fi/espionage favourite fic because I did so much world building and I can see the movie in my head already - to share with the world would be something else.
26) Do you beta yourself? If so, what kind of beta are you?I beta for a few people and what kind of beta I am depends on what kind they want. I always ask first what kind of feedback they are after, and I will do multiple beta passes if they want that. So I’ll do story feedback (characterisation, plot etc.), I’ll do a soft edit (my punctuation is not good enough to do a proper edit) but I can check for typos, tense errors, grammatical mistakes, that kind of thing. I’ll do a mix of that and I can go deeper, or more superficial depending on what people want.
My goal as a beta is to support the author - it is NOT to tear them down. So I don’t sweat the small stuff, I’ll let certain things slide sometimes because it’s not important. What is important is that the author feels good about the story they are putting out AND also feels like it’s their story. My job is not to destroy their voice, or to inject my vision - it’s to help them achieve their vision.

15 through 20??
15. Favorite song?
Probably Dog Days Are Over by Florence + The Machine. I know it was really popular when it came out, but I couldn’t really tell what the lyrics were so I didn’t care much for it. Then, almost two years ago now, I actually got around to watching a lyric video of it, and… it just kind of resonated with me. I was having a really tough time, but I just kept telling myself that if I can make it to college, it’ll get better.
16. Favorite movie?
Aaaaaaa, it’s hard to pick one, but at the moment my favs are Black Panther, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005), The Time Machine (2002), and Heathers.
17. Who would be your ideal partner?
Ohhhhhh man, you caught me at an interesting time for this question. First of all, dorks are my kryptonite. Any dork I know irl, there’s a 99% I’ve had at least a lowkey crush on at some point. It’s really very frustrating.
Along those lines, my ideal partner would be rather intelligent as well as compassionate. A bookworm who shares maybe a few of my interests, but is more knowledgeable in areas I’m not too great in (which is pretty much everything but I am interested in astronomy, genetics, physics, and computer science even though science/math don’t really like me). They could listen to me ramble about my story ideas and help me along the way of writing them.
In regards to appearance, I’ve found quite a variety of people attractive, but they get bonus points if they have dark hair, wear glasses, and if their hair is shoulder length or longer (more androgynous or male-aligned folks can get away with it being a little bit shorter).
Also, it’d be great if they know how to drive (I’m still learning), and liking cats is a must, and I’d prefer that they at least don’t hate dogs. And… I think my ideal partner would also be somewhere on the ace spectrum. When it comes to sexual things I like verbal teasing, but I’m usually neutral anything further than plain old making out. For some reason, I’m more inclined towards sexual actions when I’ve gotten comfortable with an allosexual s/o, even though it’s rare that I enjoy it.
Anyway, with all that said, I watched some Criminal Minds the other day, and every time I see even one episode of it… I spend the next few days obsessing over it… and especially Spencer Reid. So… yeah. The timing on the “ideal partner” question has been impeccably chosen.
18. Do you want children?
No, I’m not a fan of kids. I’m always worried about being too tough or too lenient, and I don’t like dealing with gross stuff (I’ll do it if I have to though). I find it unlikely that I’ll ever want kids, but I won’t say it’s impossible. Oh, and I don’t like the idea of going through pregnancy. If I ever do want kids, I’ll be adopting.
19. Do you want a church wedding?
Nah, I’d rather just go to the courthouse in a nice dress with some close friends. That shit is expensive and nerve-wracking.
20. Are you religious?
My answer is actually pretty similar to yours! I’m agnostic, meaning I believe there may or may not be some sort of higher power(s), but for me personally, I would like to think there’s at least something after death. Sometimes I think about it really hard and I get frustrated because I feel like I’m so close to the answer but can’t quite reach it.
Thanks for the ask from this thing I’m linking to in case anyone else wants to have me ramble about myself!

8. a song that speaks the words you couldn’t say
i answered this but i’ll answer it again 🙃and i will even do it in a positive way whaaaaaat. dar williams has a song called ‘spring street’ that has basically been my personal mantra for like...probably about 16 years now. there’s a line from it ‘but i’ll push myself up through the dirt and shake my petals free / i’m resolved to being born and so resigned to bravery’ that just has always perfectly summed up my worldview. like I AM HERE, i made a decision that i’m gonna be here, and that means that some days are gonna be real bad and i’m going to need to dig deep within myself and find whatever resiliency i have stockpiled there and just get through it. this song spoke the words long before i could even articulate what i wanted out of life, but it’s resonated with me ever since i heard it as a teenager.
14. a song with the name of a place in the title
‘dear chicago’ by ryan adams. ohhhhhh mannnnnnnn that’s a good song that fucks me up every time.

Thank you for the answer about free will, it's something that has really bothered me lately, I've always believed in free will but certain things like when people talk about karma and astrology that confuses me a lot but I'm not sure I believe in karma anyway except just consequences and thought cycles and patterns. Could I also ask what play astrology has to do with this if free will is a thing and astrology is very fixed? Especially Vedic astrology, or their beliefs about astrology. Thank you!
( part 2 ) Oh and I must say that I’ve started to get a weird feeling when I focus on certain things, it’s like I’m more aware of how things I do everyday interact with my past and present and how my focus could really change my personality and who I am in the long run. It’s very subtle energies but at the same time very powerful bc right now I’m making decisions and needing to plan a bit for the future and you’re kinda right it’s a bit like a web or different tunnels of energies connected to
( part 3 )connected to each other and the more you focus on one thing instead of another I can kinda feel the consciousness and possibilities line up to a different path. I think that must have to do kinda with me being led by spirit or my intuition just because I have so many choices to make rn since I just graduated. Sorry for the long asks and thank you for the work you do on this blog, it’s very helpful and I need to get a reading from you as soon as a get a job haha won’t be long I hope😊🙃
Hi, Hi, Hi!
You are so very welcome for my last answer re: Free Will. It’s why I’m here and do this. What I don’t know from personal experience, I ask Spirit about. And sometimes not even my own Spirit Guides - but any Spiritual Allies floating about that are willing to engage in real, honest, thought-provoking conversation.
You ask some really compelling Spiritual things. 
And a long Ask = an even longer Answer ;)
So I’ve answered your questions in 3 sections below:
Astrology & Free Will
Vedic Astrology… Say What?
Psychic Awareness While Living: Healthy or Not?
Note (for those following along at home): I do reference some concepts previously discussed in [ My Post / Answer about Whether I Believe in Free Will, and Why / Why Not ] …. If you are arriving late to the party (and happen to find this interesting), I suggest you read through that first.
* Keep Reading to learn more about the relationship between Astrology & Free Will, my channelled thoughts on Vedic Astrology, as well as how Psychic Awareness & Abilities can Influence How we Choose to Live / Behave *
Astrology & Free Will
I can read Astrology. I know a fair amount about it. It’s more of a hobby / personal interest of mine. I also offer reads on my website on the basis of different planetary and zodiac energies, but I am so very NOT a self-proclaimed “Expert” in that field. So my answer is based on personal opinion, experiences with Spirit, and channelling happening right now as I invite Spirit in to discuss this.
I see Astrology (as a method of reading, learning more about people & situations) like a similar Spiritual Study & (ultimately) Spiritual Tool - used to seek / flush out information about the self. This to me is really similar to how I also see other Spiritual Studies / Tools - like: Numerology & Palmistry.
There is a reason why practicing Astrology is called, “Charting”. I see it exactly as that. A chart of the position of planets at the time of your birth, determining which Houses & Zodiac Signs influence (energetically) the planets’ relative positions in your Chart (upon birth). And therefore, likely characteristics, personality traits, motivating factors, and emotional responses you may (or - to be fair - may not) possess in your life.
So (in my opinion) a Natal Birth Chart is like an energetic Road Map of YOU, based on the measurement of the relative position of the Planets & Zodiac signs.
Just like how - the sum total of the numbers associated with your Name or Birthdate (Numerology), is like an energetic Road Map of YOU, based on the energetic / symbolic significance of each Number in relation to your “Life Path” Number, “Soul” Number, “Destiny” Number, “Personality” Number, and other significant numbers in your life.
Just like how - the markings on your Palm (Palmistry), are like an energetic Road Map of YOU, based on the measurement of your “Life Line”, “Head Line”, “Heart Line”, “Planetary Mounds”, and other such markings.
Although each of these methods, in turn, are super cool, interesting, unique, and compelling… They are as I said: Road Maps.
Much like how we Map our planet, we see Maps everyday, we use Google Maps (GPS), just because we are aware of the information of where we could possibly go / travel to in life DOES NOT MEAN we will see & visit everywhere we have seen on a map or even heard of.
There are things in our Natal Charts - connected to Astrology - that will resonate and make sense / help you to identify & define yourself, your motives, your actions, your emotions, your behaviours… But just because you have that Natal Chart DOES NOT MEAN you will experience and behave *exactly* like everything that has been charted out for you.
That’s where, in my opinion, these schools of thought are tools for us to better know ourselves. But at the end of the day we still have Free Will and possess the ability to choose / decide all aspects of ourselves and our lives - WITH or WITHOUT the added information of our Astrology / Natal Chart, Numerology, or Palmistry.
They may serve to fill in some blanks for us, but they do not pre-determine how we will think, act, feel, behave, or CHOOSE in our life.
Side Note:
I have a client that is a Professional Astrologer. And when reading with them they fully admit to me “Yes, what you say from Spirit is true based on what I’ve already Charted for myself… But I wish to act *outside* of what I’ve Charted. So what does Spirit have to say about that?” ***
*** This is me paraphrasing / glossing over what has been said, as my sessions with clients are confidential.
Vedic Astrology… Say What?
Okay so Full Disclosure (because I’m super honest and don’t know how to be anything other than that): 
I have no idea what Vedic Astrology is. I am curious though.
So I’m going to do a quick Google for the definition of that and see what Spirit has to say…
* 3 Minutes Pass *
OHHHHHH.
So Vedic Astrology is… Astrology. But traditional Hindu / Indian Astrology. And it seems to be most focused on Charting / Mapping for the purpose of determining one’s “Destiny”.
Gotcha.
Note: If I’ve butchered that quick-3-minute-Google-dive explanation, I do so thoroughly apologize AND encourage you to write in to *lovingly* provide further information not only for myself, but those that read my blog.
Spirit is showing me that Charting one’s “Destiny” via a Vedic Astrology Reading is no different than what I do as a Psychic Medium when I tell my clients what I see for them in the future (via my Clairvoyant & Clairaudient abilities - visions & spoken word from Spirit).
And Spirit goes further to say (as soon as I’ve typed that up) - “Yea, that’s pretty close Allison”.
So rather than speaking about Vedic Astrology at this point (something I don’t know / practice) - I’m going to switch over to speak about reading the future as a Psychic Medium (something I do know / practice)… Because Spirit has given me the “Green Light” to say that the two are comparable, in terms of the end goal / achievement (pre-determining one’s future). The means though (technique) could not be ANYMORE different ;)
So as a Psychic Medium when I read the future I am reading the highest possible likelihoods / probable events (think Statistical Maths for a second here), based on who you are, how you behave, and the decisions (Free Will) you are enacting in your life right now (so in maths - the “known variables”).
I imagine in Vedic Astrology, the Astrologer is Charting your highest possible / probable “Destiny”, based on your Natal Birth Chart AND the predicted trajectory of the Planets through each of the Astrological Houses & associated Zodiac signs - something that is mathematically pre-determined.
I feel like I’m speaking a lot of jargon here.
BASICALLY. The words that are most important that I just typed are: HIGHEST POSSIBLE LIKELIHOODS, HIGHEST PROBABLE EVENTS, HIGHEST POSSIBLE “DESTINY”.
As with Statistical Maths, there are outliers. Or rather, DATA THAT CANNOT BE ACCOUNTED FOR OR CHARTED. 
In Psychology you would maybe say that: “Past Behaviour predicts Future Behaviour”. 
Key Words: Predicts! Does not guarantee.
So the way I see it [ WITH HEAPING AMOUNTS OF HELP FROM SPIRIT ] is that Vedic Astrology, or even what I do as a Psychic Medium (when consulting Spirit about a client’s future), is really our “best educated guess” about your future or “destiny” based on your past (or in Vedic Astrology - your Natal Birth Chart & the predicated future position of the planets relative to the Astrological Houses & associated Zodiac signs). 
The past - by the way - is something that is Linear. It’s happened. Everything is known to you (and Spirit). The only unknowns are thoughts, decisions, motivators, behaviours, emotions, etc. of those around you that may have at one point or another, influenced your life.
The future - as I said in my post about “Free Will” - is a web of potential.
So can Vedic Astrology influence / supersede Free Will?
In my opinion… No.
Just because something is charted / calculated / psychically determined, doesn’t mean it will *actually* happen in that exact way.
YOU are the “unknown” variable in that equation. Or rather, your Free Will. 
You can choose at any time to turn Left instead of Right. 
Even if your map, your GPS, your significant other, your family, or every other variable in your life point towards turning Right. You still have the ability to *randomly* turn Left.
Psychic Awareness While Living: Healthy or Not?
Ever heard of the phrase:  “Too much of a good thing”?
That’s how I see this Spiritual / Psychic stuff.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s so-so-so amazing. I love my gifts. I love being able to know things / see things / hear things. I love getting “insider” information about my life, my loved ones’ lives, and the world.
BUT.
But, but, but…
Knowing more, feeling more, sensing more… Well that’s not always the *best* thing.
It also reminds me of that phrase: “Ignorance is bliss”
Sometimes knowing less can be best.
When you are (what we now call in the New Age community) “Awake” to the world around you. Spiritually Aware that your are 100% a Spiritual Being / Entity having a Human Experience…
When you are in tune with your Psychic / Intuitive abilities, you work with them, your use them (or… they use you)…
Well when those things happen… Very quickly you may start feeling *extremely* small, in this world, this universe, all universes. And you realize the space around you IS SO FREAKING, BEYOND, BIG. LIKE, BIGGER THAN EVEN THIS. LIKE, BIGGER THAN EVEN ALL OF THE CAP LOCKS IN THE WORLD.
And when that happens. You. Start. Questioning. EVERYTHING.
Not just one thing. Not just teeny weeny things. But.. EVERY. POSSIBLE. THING.
When you possess these gifts and know how to use them?
Well then you: obsess about the past
“what could have been different”
“where would you be now if you have chosen this instead of that?”
“who would you be if he / she / they had treated you differently?”
“who would you be if he / she / they had RAISED you differently?”
“where would you be know if you knew then what you know now”
Etc…
And you also: obsess about the future
“I want *this thing* but what is the best way for me to achieve *that thing*?”
“How will I know when I need to go for *that thing*?”
“Is *perfect timing* even a thing? How will I know?”
“Could there be something I’m doing now that’s actually holding me back?”
“What if I’m working so hard to *do this thing* right now, when it actually won’t even *give me that thing*?”
Etc…
Then the unfortunate outcome of all of that obsession about the Past & Future results in:
Being so, ridiculously, terrifyingly, hopelessly STUCK in the Present.
SO THE SECRET IS:
Please, please, please let me tell you the secret to this…
What I learned a very long time ago is this:
Listen. Receive. Feel. Sense. Gather & Know more information than everyone else that is still “Asleep”. 
Do that. Actively engage in your Sixth Senses. Connect to your Spiritual Allies. Embrace the incredible, amazing, awesomeness that is you & your potential.
Do that. Be that. But then take all of that extra information and THROW ALL OF IT OUT OF THE WINDOW.
IGNORE IT.
Let it come into your awareness, and right back out again.
Because although there is this super-awesome, Psychically-aware, spiritually-savvy, version of yourself. That Spiritual Being / Entity I mentioned earlier.
Although there is her / him / them.
There is also You. The Human Being version of You that is actively living (right. the. frick. now.) this *sometimes heart-rending & emotionally turbulent* Human Experience.
So… Psychic Awareness While Living: Healthy or Not?
Not so much. 
But you can change that with that Free Will of yours… By choosing which messages from Spirit you allow to influence your day-to-day thoughts, behaviour, emotions & actions.
Believe me when I say that this takes practice. It’s easier for some than others. But when you get the hang of it, all of the over-obsessing will be like flies buzzing around your head. Psychic / Intuitive insights that you are aware of but see as things OUTSIDE OF YOURSELF. Energies *you can choose* to feed into, or… (and this is WAY more healthy)… IGNORE.

anakin skywalker for the ask game!
OHMYGOS I’M SO EXCITED TO ACTUALLY GET AN ASK FOR AN ASK GAME
Why I like them: buckle up for a cliche answer lmao I really like anakin because he’s such an emotionally.. unhinged character. he feels so heckin deeply and shows it freely, and though it’s his downfall, it’s one of my favorite characteristics to see in characters. also, it resonates with me as someone who also feels extremely deeply. I see a lot of myself in anakin, and a lot of anakin in me.
Why I don’t: hoo boy… can I just use this space to rail on clone wars anakin bc that was the worst iteration of anakin
Favorite episode (scene if movie): favorite movie scene is probably,, OK so I have like 3 favorite scenes, 1st being the entire anakin and padme on naboo arc in ep ii (fight me), 2nd being obi wan and anakin on grievous’ big ship to rescue the chancellor at the start of rots, and 3rd, anakin and obi wan fight scene at the end of rots, naturally,,,
also the opera scene but that's in a league all of its own
as for tcw (which I actually watched all of even though i really didn’t like anakin in it lmao), probably the entire zygerrian arc.
Favorite season/movie: EPSIDOE 3!!!!
Favorite line: ohhhhhh heck I actually… really like his dumb speech on mustafar when obi wan confronts him.
Favorite outfit: his rots robes! OH MY GOD OR HIS AOTC REFUGEE TRAVEL CLOTHES
OTP: anidala
Brotp: is there any other option than OBIKIN
Head Canon: oof,, I can’t think of any atm
Unpopular opinion: attack of the clones anakin was probably one of the best anakins???
A wish: yikes I wish anakin had fallen to the darkside *after* luke and leia were born, and that he’d been there for their birth and at least for the first year or something before everything went to shit
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: practically everything that could ever go wrong in anakin’s life went wrong so uh, pass
5 words to best describe them: destructively caring, misled sensitive man
My nickname for them: booboo
