What if the Kosmos Held the Key to Building Wealth?
My name’s Rowan. When I was sixteen, I picked up The Power of Now and it cracked my worldview open. From there, I fell headfirst into Eastern mysticism, Indian spirituality, and Kriya Yoga. But something never clicked. I had read over a hundred books, yet still had no map for how to live in order to serve those higher consciousness ideals.
I was working a series of jobs as a tech assistant, a teacher, then in government admin, then in retail. All the while, I was quietly depressed that the capitalist machine was eating up my energy and leaving me no space to embody the wisdom I valued most. I thought wealth and materialism were anti-spiritual. That’s what so many teachers said: “money is the root of all evil.” I saw how broke hippies lived; for a while, I was one of them.
Then I stumbled on a profound nuance in the ancient Vedic worldview. The sages didn’t see life as a binary choice between spiritual depth and worldly success. They mapped out the four goals of life: Artha (wealth), Kama (pleasure), Dharma (purpose), and Moksha (liberation). Neglect one, and your whole life collapses.
It hit me: spirituality without resources is fragile and useless. You can meditate for one hour and work a job you hate for eight… but that equation never adds up to liberation for you, or for anyone else.
The Vedas offered two paths: either renounce wealth entirely and live in poverty to pursue God, or build wealth aligned with your values to buy your freedom and serve a transcendent cause.
That realization changed my life.
Somewhere along my studies of Hellenistic and Vedic Astrology, I stumbled across a strange subset of people: Financial Astrologers. Their claim was outrageous - planetary cycles could be used as inputs for investment strategies? I thought it was bull… until I realized it wasn’t new at all. Ancient Greece. India. The Renaissance. Wall Street. Humans have been timing markets with the stars for thousands of years.
Right now, we’re living through a new industrial revolution. The whole financial system of the earth is being digitized before our eyes. We’re heading toward either radical freedom or total control. I believe the path forward is Artha in service of Dharma, and ultimately Moksha. Wealth as a path to buy freedom for spiritual pursuits. Building wealth not for greed and ego, but as a means to freedom, higher consciousness, and to be of value to the world in a way you never could before.
