This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Virgo. Virgo is a highly analytic and discerning mutable earth sign. While analysis is incredibly valuable, it can lead to perfectionism, which can stand in the way of presence and progress. Part of the magic of Virgoian energies is found in ritual and embodiment. Embodied knowledge is awareness that is not just accessed through the mind, but is integrated through the heart and lives within your body. This form of awareness empowers you not just to know something, but to live in alignment with it.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Aquarius. Aquarian energy connects us to possibility. It is a fixed air sign that governs the parts of you that feel both detached from others and connected to the community of our shared humanity. Because these energies can be heady and erratic, they can get fixed on the future, pulling your focus away from the here and now. This meditation will remind you that this is the only moment that requires stewardship. Use this meditation to get centered in the present moment.

This meditation provides a sacred space for reflection and an opportunity to reassess your perspective, so that you can move ahead with clarity and confidence.
