In The Elements: Planes of Experience ~ EARTH
WITH VIRGINIA MASON RICHARDSON
Part Two in a four-part integrative, monthly series exploring our connection to the Elements. Register for all four classes in the series and save by clicking here.
Earth. Air. Water. Fire. These four Elements represent four planes of experience – four specific ways of engaging with the world. Through Yoga, Astrology and Tarot, this integrative, monthly workshop series will immerse you in each Element while exploring your personal connection to it.
When we open ourselves to experience and connect with each Element, we are offered new perspective and can appreciate the powerful differences of each elemental plane. The Elements help us see beyond ourselves toward an interconnected whole; as we travel between the planes and experience the world differently, our consciousness expands, and we are graced with compassion and acceptance.
Meditation, Breath practices and Yoga postures will be used to explore each Element with playfulness and curiosity. In these exercises, you will learn ways to physically and energetically align yourself with each elemental plane.
You also will learn how to engage with the Elements through Astrology and your birth chart. We will explore the Elements you are uniquely aligned with – the Elements that dominate your experience; and shape your perspective and the way you relate to others.
We then dive into the art of Tarot to further deepen our experience of the Elements. You will be guided toward an intuitive understanding of the role the Elements currently play in your life by drawing a card for each Element from the corresponding Tarot suit.
Come ready to take your body, mind and spirit on a multidimensional journey through the elemental planes, and leave with a greater understanding of the Elements in Yoga, Astrology and Tarot; and how the Elements shape who we are, how we live, and how we connect to each other.
IN THE ELEMENTS: EARTH
As the sun enters Taurus, we dig into Earth: the plane of matter, the Tarot suit of Pentacles, and the Astrological signs of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. Through Earth, we are firmly rooted in the material world via our physical senses. The Earth Element has the power of stability, patience and discipline; grounding us to the here and now. In Earth, we also face the limitations of our physicality, giving us an appreciation for realities beyond physical form. In this workshop, we harness Earth’s power of stillness to connect deeply with your physical body, encouraging presence and self-discipline. You also will learn how to use other Elements to balance and invigorate the experience of Earth.
