We had the good fortune of connecting with Nicolás Huljich and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Nicolás, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
Since early childhood, I knew my path would be profoundly connected with exploring the mysteries of live and of my own mind. That slowly but surely took to study traditional Yoga, martial arts, philosophy, Āyurveda and Vedic Astrology.
But everyone was so sure that to pursue such things as a long-term career would be a waste of money, energy and time, and sooner or later I would realize that I need to study a “serious” career.
The more I learned, the more confident I became about my path. And the Yoga philosophy itself gave me the answers to my doubts: if you feel it in your heart, it’s meant to happen. This doesn’t take away the fact that you need to be constant, disciplined, perseverant, hard working and devoted to your life projects. If you are patient and humble, while doing the necessary hard work for your dreams to become true, success is guaranteed.
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Ah, the journey to where I am today has been nothing short of an astrological adventure! You see, I wear multiple hats in the realm of Vedic wisdom. I’m not just your average Vedic Astrologer, Vedic educator, and Yoga teacher. I’m a cosmic storyteller, a guide through the celestial tapestry, and a seeker of the profound.
What sets me apart? Well, I don’t just read charts; I decipher the celestial narratives that shape destinies. I’m not content with ordinary, I seek extraordinary insights. I’m not just a teacher; I’m a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern seekers. I’m not a yogi by routine; I’m a yogi by heart and soul, intertwining the spiritual and physical realms.
Pride? I’m most proud of helping countless individuals discover their unique cosmic fingerprint and guiding them towards purposeful living. What excites me? Every chart, every student, every sunrise meditation session, and every cosmic alignment that unfolds a new chapter in my journey.
Was it easy? Far from it! My path was illuminated by the stars but also sprinkled with celestial challenges. But you know, challenges are like cosmic puzzles. I’ve overcome them by embracing the lessons they brought, and by staying committed to the cosmic dance of growth.
The lessons along the way? Patience, humility, and the understanding that we are all stardust, intricately connected to the cosmos. I’ve learned that the universe has its rhythm, and I’m here to help others find their harmonious dance within it.
What I want the world to know about me? I’m not just an astrologer; I’m a cosmic guide here to empower and inspire. My celestial journey, and my story is a cosmic odyssey. I want the world to know that we’re all part of this magnificent cosmic symphony, and I’m here to help others find their unique notes.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
For a week-long trip to give my best friend the best time ever, I’d create a holistic and rejuvenating experience that combines nature, adventure, spirituality, and healthy living. Here’s an overview of the itinerary:
We’d start our journey with a visit to hidden lakes, rivers, and mountains, where we can explore pristine landscapes, hike through lush forests, and take in breathtaking views.
Our accommodations would be nestled in the heart of the rainforest, providing a serene and immersive experience.
Throughout the trip, we’d have the opportunity to swim with sea turtles in crystal-clear waters, connecting with marine life and the natural world.
Each morning, we’d begin our day with sunrise yoga sessions in serene natural settings, connecting with the earth’s energy. At sunset, we’d gather to chant mantras, fostering inner peace and spiritual harmony.
We’d explore sacred sites within the rainforest in Puerto Rico, gaining insights into indigenous traditions and ancient wisdom.
Our meals throughout the week would be a culinary journey of organic and vegan delights, sourced locally to support sustainable practices. We’d dine at charming eco-friendly cafes and restaurants, savoring vibrant flavors that nourish the body and soul. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and plant-based dishes would be the highlight of our daily menu.
On our final day, we’d embark on a memorable road trip through dense forest, stopping at hidden gems along the way here in Puerto Rico.
We’d indulge in one last dip in a secluded lake or river, cherishing the natural beauty of the Caribbean.
Our farewell would be a heartwarming gathering, reflecting on our journey and the profound connections we’ve made with nature, ourselves, and each other.
Throughout the trip, we’d interact with the welcoming locals, learn about their way of life, and appreciate the beauty of the area’s hidden treasures. This itinerary is designed to offer a holistic experience that nourishes the body, mind, and spirit, leaving my best friend with lasting memories of an unforgettable adventure.
And, I actually have offered a quite similar itinerary to several students around the world that have came for a retreat on the amazing nature of Puerto Rico.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
All my inspiration and strength is thanks to the ancient seers from the Vedic era, and particularly, to one book that in my childhood changed it all: Autobiography of a Yogui by Paramahansa Yogananda, if you haven’t read it yet, I strongly suggest it to.
