Three of Fire/Wands (fire placement) Meaning : The Three of Fire is a manifestation and assessment of what has already been implemented. It is the outcome of an action. The Three of Fire evaluates progress before moving forward. An important part of the creative process is being able to see past patterns, and also evaluating what has worked and what hasn’t, in other words we really know how to do this, and discuss opportunities.. Expressive-movement qualities : Fire with fire Dance pace : Quick Chakra : Fire/solar plexus—drive Physical focus : Forehead and eyes Astrologic influence : The pure essence of sun in Aries is what we have achieved. It is a sparkle of vitality. Intention : Stick with the repeated pattern that works. Suggested moves and props: Use a handheld telescope. Look up and down, behind and ahead. Run in a spiral. Repeat any movement pattern. 2. Nine of Water/Cups (water placement) Meaning : The Nine of Water affirms satisfaction and fulfilled dreams. The Nine of Water is about being physically and emotionally healthy and staying open for yourself and the people around you, and knowing what you want. It is tangible happiness. It means not only keeping a good frame of mind , but being grateful for what you have. Remember gratitude completes the energetic circuit. Connect with friends, share meals, and foster company. Expressive-movement qualities : Water with earth Dance pace : Moderate Chakra : Water/sexual chakra—flowing Physical focus : Feet Astrologic influence : Jupiter in Pisces shows a deep compassion for spirituality. It expands your faith. Intention : Acknowledge the joy in your life. Suggested moves and props : Walk on tiptoes while performing a belly-like dance. Include rolling movements of the abdomen.

She connects to us with loving kindness and be loving and kind to all. The Queen of Earth is a recipient of wealth and prosperity. She reflects through meditation. It is important to put your words into action (such as call your congressional representatives- try 5Calls.org ). With the Queen in the Earth placement we all must give special prayers to the Earth.

HANDS & FEET I focus on modalities to help stay pain free, increase mobility and balance. Each of the below modalities offers anyone who cares to be pro-active ways to improve and eradicate pain, specific issues like bunions, neuromas, plantar fasciatis, hammertoes, and other common ailments as well as improve circulation, balance and general well-being.

Once you begin working on your feet, you will see your legs, hips and back improve also.

Foot Work Enjoy a 1-hour weekly Foot Work class on Tuesdays at 11am WHAT: Each class will last 60 minutes and be unique. Classes will be inspired by many modalities and people I have studied with. WHO: This class is tailored for everyone, whether you have no pain or your feet always hurt. We will be hands on, no socks, sitting and standing. If you need to work from a chair we have those too. WHY: We demand so much from our feet and rarely pay attention to nurturing our feet beyond a pedicure or occasional foot massage, but our feet need to be able to articulate movement. Our feet should have t he same dexterity as our hands, so any work with our feet helps to improve circulation from our feet to our hips, improves balance and promotes healing. WHEN: Tuesdays at 11am Class reservations required and No Drop-ins. All participants must be vaccinated. Masks are required as of 8/20/21. All policies are subject to change based on state and local health guidelines. We have created a new waiver to include confirmation of you receiving a vaccination and that at least 14 days have passed symptom and illness free. Foot Work rsvp
