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 Gemini. Gemini is a mutable air sign. Its energies are always-alert, inquisitive, and ready to pivot.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Aries. Aries is the first zodiac sign, and it rules over the head and face.

This meditation will help you to gently release the tensions you've been holding in your body so that you can return to your day feeling relaxed and unencumbered.
