WE EMPOWER CREATORS

Our Story

What We Do

Where we are

Astral Cognition was founded by Rajvi Chandna and Shikha Bhattacharjee and officially started on June 8, 2020. We know that it can be hard to be creative. There are numerous hurdles, both physical and mental, that we need to overcome in order to become a creator, and Astral Cognition is here to help you out! Both of us have struggled through some of the same things as many other creators, so we created Astral Cognition to help others through that same process!

We’re a student-run page dedicated to teaching everyone how to become a divergent thinker and a creator! Our goal is to help people who don’t have a voice to find one on the internet. It’s important that everyone has a voice, and there is no better place to do so than online! We believe that, on the internet, creativity is one of the key ways to make sure your opinions are heard, from eye-catching posts to marketing a new product. We want to try and achieve our goal through our videos, which are on YouTube, IGTV, and Facebook!

Most of our content is primarily on YouTube. We upload biweekly and cover a huge range of topics, from typology to the effects of creativity on society! In addition, our second biggest page is on Instagram, where we post content to help others through the process!
