Every month we begin to TUNE IN with some prompts for writing, reflecting, and meditating to support your process all month.

We are shifting from Leo - fire energy- that was inviting us to self-expression, confidence, and creativity, into Virgo – earth energy – where we circle back to setting a foundation for growth. Much of this month of Virgo is supported by Mercury retrograde and it is a good time to review and reflect on the details. Practice discernment and ask questions about what you really want to create and how you want to be of service. Begin with yourself and then turn your attention to your home, friends, community, business, and the world.

The prompts listed at bottom of post are a guidepost for playing with the energy this month.

Prompts to work with this month through writing, meditating, reflecting, and walking in nature:
· Create an intention for this month. This can be something simple – a few words, an affirmation or statement of something you want to explore. You may wish to create a ceremony or ritual or explore a more detailed intention. 
· Connect to the energies of harmonizing aspirations, discernment, and service. Notice how this is showing up in your life already.
· Reflect on structure and flow. Are there systems to put in place or change to create more support for you?
·Explore the word discernment. You might want to explore where you are saying yes and where you are saying no. Are you in alignment with the time you need for yourself? For example, are you over giving, and you need to say ‘no’ more. Are you feeling stuck, and it is time to say ‘yes’ with generosity and movement? Write a reflection about anything that surfaces.
Imagine that 2023 is a time to deconstruct your life and reconstruct it with the things that spark you and create joy, purpose, and fulfillment. 

Use the Virgo energy to examine the details and help organize a new life. Journal about your ideas. Take it apart and what do you want to let go of? What do you want to keep? What do you want to add?
Tune into your heart. Imagine the world you want to live in. What part of that is already here? How can you take steps to live more in the world you want to live in?
Share your insights, practices, and process any time during the month. We love hearing about your unique experience of the monthly theme.
