The Total Solar Eclipse on April 8th is not just an astrological phenomenon. It’s also an opportune time to tap into the energy of the universe and set intentions to guide you in the coming months.
1. Put Pen to Paper.
As shadows from the sun shift, so do energies. Use this as a time to visualize a clear slate, and lovingly release what no longer serves you.
Feeling stuck? Getting started is usually the trickiest part. Try one of these writing prompts (courtesy of ChatGPT), and see where where your words flow.
Transformation: Visualize yourself transitioning from a caterpillar into a radiant butterfly. Consider the qualities you want to embody and see yourself emerging into your fullest potential.
Abundance: Imagine a tree brimming with succulent fruits, each symbolizing a different facet of abundance you desire. Feel the joy of harvesting these fruits, representing the fruition of your dreams.
Higher Self: Picture a luminous bridge leading to your higher self. Seek answers to your life’s questions and embrace the wisdom that flows back to you.
2. Re-set the scene.
Few things are more effective than a change of scenery when you’re feeling stuck. Escape to nature, and release stagnant energy with some physical movement. Making space to step away from your screens and devices, and out of your comfort zone, can be the transformative push we need to see things a little bit differently.
3. Give yourself permission to PAUSE.
This tends to be the most challenging for many of us. Mindfully grounding your impulses gives your mind and body space to nurture the seeds you planted. Tenderly give your intentions room to BLOOM.
4. Ground yourself with gratitude.
Express gratitude for the opportunity to set intentions. Ground yourself by focusing on your breath and visualizing roots extending from your feet into the earth. Feel the supportive energy of the earth and the expansive energy of the cosmos. This connection will help anchor your intentions and maintain a sense of balance and stability.
