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:
Waning Gibbous in Scorpio ♏︎
In astrology, Scorpio is associated with the pelvic region, and systems of reproduction and elimination—all very important processes associated with detoxification, transformation, and waste removal . When the moon moves through Scorpio, our yoga practice focuses on deep-seated release and supporting transformation in the root chakra. Classes in Scorpio will include deep hip openers, squats, and restorative postures like Child’s Pose to increase hip mobility, stabilize the core, and provide tension release in the sacral region. Yoga classes in Scorpio can be especially powerful for those looking for deep reflection and intentional release of what no longer serves you and your personal journey.
