Weekly Energetic Weather: 4.21-4.26.26
Overall Theme
Welcome to the sensual season! A moment to nourish yourself and come back to your body. To remember what it feels like to slow your breath and notice the details in that spring blossom. To watch the bees buzz around the fragrant jasmine and to feel the sun warm your face. It’s both a time of self-awareness and other-awareness. As you deepen into your body, you’ll notice time can almost stand still, and suddenly you see so much more in the teller’s face as you pay for groceries and hear even more in your friend’s voice as they share a story.
This is a lesson I keep learning over and over again. When I put my body first, when I prioritize what it’s asking of me before leaping to help or meet others, I’m able to give and be so much more for the humans in and around my life. Perhaps you agree with me in theory. Most do, but the reality of living this out day to day actually requires some intense self-trust and discipline. I find it’s waaaay easier to drop my needs and lean into others. It’s a culturally approved (and even praised) way of self-sabotaging and avoiding my real responsibilities. Dealing with my own needs doesn’t give me the high of a dopamine hit that making someone else feel rescued or seen does. In fact, it’s hard, uncomfortable, frustrating, and truly annoying most of the time. Why cant we just be superhumans and never have to deal with our bodies or health or sleep or eating ever again!? Well, this moment, this season, is all about cherishing what makes us human - these (very basic) needs. You know what you’re like if you don’t eat, sleep or take breaks… I definitely do, I’m a mess! Most of us are, even if it takes weeks, months or years to break us down. We will eventually collapse. And so will the systems we’ve worked so hard to keep standing. So in the name of divine stewardship of your body and for the love of all those in your life - you NEED to lean into your body this week. You NEED to embrace slowing down and taking care of yourself.
Now, I have had two of the busiest weeks I’ve seen in months, last week and this week, and so I’m in this right now, and the way I’m playing with balance is not necessarily saying no or pulling out or even numbing out. It’s simply slowing my mind and body down in the moments where I feel a pressure to rush, when my inner monologue is pushing me - “I have to get all this done or I have to respond to the list of people or I have to complete this project in 2 hours”. My past approaches were to just give in to the chaos and power through with all intention to collapse on the other side. This week…even as I send this email out close to midnight ;) I will be breathing deeper, closing my eyes, smelling the air, and observing more. Life doesn’t always allow for full retreats (as much as I am a fan of these), so we have to take minis. 1 min of your hand on your chest, slowing your breath before making a rushed decision, can change your entire day and as a result the way each person you encounter feels. Your state impacts everyone you touch. This week invites you to own your worth from a new angle. The more you value and sit in your body, the greater your healing influence on the world.
How are you going to sink deeper into your body this week? How can you slow down time, without retreating?
Moon Schedule
The moon gives you a FREE BODY SCAN. The moon energy highlights areas of your body. If these areas are thriving, you’ll glow. If not, it’ll show! Tune in and get an easy update on the state of your body through the consistent moon activity.
MOON enters Cancer | 4.21
Lungs, diaphragm, breath… how deep is your inhale right now? Over these next few days, see if you can’t start your inhalation from your pelvic floor. Simply draw your mind’s intention to your pelvic floor, and it’ll happen naturally. Expand your entire body, not just your chest. See how this feels. If your lungs are carrying any kind of bacteria, fungi or virus, now would be the time it shows up. Take extra care to stay warm, cover the back of your neck, and get fresh air. Nebulizing is the go-to to clear up any lung infection. I also love tapping my upper chest to wake up my lung capacity, clear any congestion, and to soften an contraction/stiffness of the intercostal tissue. You can do it anywhere!
MOON enters Leo | 4.23
Leos rule the heart and the gallbladder. The place of love and anger management. So under this new moon, you’ll be shown which is ruling your subconscious, as this part of you expresses itself through your body’s functions. Perhaps you’ll even feel the heat of both, but if you're aching or lonely, check your heart and vice versa. If you’re frustrated and holding onto pain and bitterness from the past…. watch for gallbladder symptoms: light and floating BMs, histamine rollercoasters, panic/anxiety, depression, low immunity, hemorrhoids, itchiness, migraines, and acne.
MOON enters Virgo | 4.26
We end the week with the energy that reviews the whole body. Make it your goal to arrive here having spent Tuesday-Saturday intimately connected to your body’s rhythms and messages (symptom expression). Under this moon, whatever is thriving will shine, and whatever is struggling will get loud. It's a quick and easy way to learn your body’s top priority in this season and to align with that focus. What in your body is asking for help, and where does it want you to start to heal efficiently? Observe your skin, BMs, sleep, energy levels, brain clarity and recall, appetite, and levels of reactions.
