Welcome to this morning practice.
For anyone who reaches for the to-do list before their feet hit the floor.
This is familiar to anyone with a Capricorn moon or strong Capricorn placements.
So let yourself settle in and allow yourself to be here.
And let it be that this is an important part of your to-do list.
Your moon in your astrological chart is your emotional inner world.
And whether you have an earth moon like Capricorn,
Or whether the moon is just transiting through an earthy sign at the moment.
And Earthmoon feels safe through competence,
Structure,
And getting things handled.
You often wake carrying the weight of the day.
The responsibilities.
The list.
Your strength is that you are dependable and capable.
But the risk is that you start the day braced and hard on yourself before anything has even happened.
So in this practice.
Going to have a steady start with a little kindness for yourself built in.
So sit comfortably or lie down.
If you're sitting,
Place both feet on the floor.
And have your spine tall but easy.
And whether you're lying or sitting.
Let yourself be supported.
Even the most capable person is allowed to be held.
Take a slow breath in.
And release it.
Feel the surface beneath you.
Breathe naturally.
But notice the breath coming into your body.
Notice where it catches.
Where it fills.
Notice which parts of your body relax as you release.
The day has not started yet.
For this minute there's nothing to manage.
Let your shoulders drop down from your ears.
Let your hands relax.
And first acknowledge the truth.
You are capable.
You have handled hard days before.
And you will handle hard days again.
Say it plainly to yourself.
I am steady.
And I am capable.
And feel how true that is.
And then add the part that you probably often skip.
Whatever happens today.
I do not have to be perfect.
Whatever happens today.
I do not have to be perfect.
My worth is not the length of my list.
Breathe that in.
My worth is not the length of my list.
You are a person.
Not a machine for getting things done.
Picture the day ahead.
And see yourself moving through it steadily.
One thing at a time.
Capable and unhurried,
Even when you need to move fast.
The mountain is climbed one step at a time.
And all Capricorn energy knows how to climb.
Take one more deep breath in.
And allow yourself to feel strong and capable.
And also gentle and human.
You are capable of holding both things.
When you're ready.
Open your eyes.
And allow that feeling of strength.
And humanity.
To be part of you.
Stand up when you're ready,
Steady on your feet.
And begin your day one step at a time.
And gently with yourself.
Thank you so much for sharing your space with me today.
Have a wonderful day.
