Each zodiac sign is traditionally associated with a different part of the body, beginning with Aries at the head and ending with Pisces at the feet. In this yoga series, we use the current astrological season and the rhythm of the moon to guide our practice. As the moon moves through the twelve signs of the zodiac during its roughly 28-day lunar cycle, each class brings focused awareness, movement, and intention to the body region connected to that sign. The lunar cycle is often seen as a reflection of natural rhythms of energy, rest, and renewal, inviting us to tune into subtle shifts in our bodies and practice with greater mindfulness. Over the course of the lunar cycle, we’ll explore and care for the whole body—honoring both cosmic movement and our own embodied experience on the mat.

Today’s Class:

Waxing Crescent in Cancer ♋︎

As the sign known for nurturing emotional sensitivity, Cancer is thought to be associated with the chest, breast, stomach, and abdominal region as these areas house crucial, life-sustaining organs in the body. When the moon moves through Cancer, our yoga practice centers on nurturing these parts of the body and grounding the emotional mind. Classes in Cancer will include supportive and heart-centered postures such as chest openers, gentle forward folds, and twists to encourage emotional release, digestive support, and a sense of comfort and inner stability.
