Suggested Practice: Solar Plexus Slow Flow

Level 1/2 Slow Flow

This grounding Slow Flow explores the solar plexus, psoas, and nervous system, inviting you to cultivate inner strength while gently releasing patterns of tension, fear, and insecurity held in the body. This practice works from the inside out — using diaphragmatic breathing, deep core awareness, psoas-focused movement, and vagal-supportive practices to create a greater sense of safety, spaciousness, and embodied confidence.

Astrological Overview: Venus retrograde in Scorpio squares Pluto in Aquarius, potentially bringing relationship tensions, power dynamics, or deeply held frustrations into greater awareness. Rather than becoming entangled in conflict, consider how this energy might reveal something you're ready to transform.

Festival Spotlight 🛕 Dussehra (Vijayadashami): Dussehra celebrates the triumph of dharma over adharma and is observed through different sacred stories and traditions across India. Among the best known are Rama's victory over Ravana and the Goddess Durga's victory over Mahishasura. These stories offer a powerful invitation to contemplate courage, integrity, and the inner strength required to overcome the forces that keep us from living in alignment with our values.

Celestial Stargate ☀️ Izar: Izar is a beautiful double star in Boötes, the Herdsman, whose name is associated with a veil or covering. Its symbolism offers an invitation to look beyond appearances and recognize the deeper truth within a situation. Sometimes courage begins when we become willing to see what has been hidden.

Reflection: What inner obstacle am I ready to meet with courage and compassion?
