Virgo season arrives in the second half of August, giving us the ability to see the larger vision for our life and the fortitude to materialize our dreams. Virgo is a healer who is finely attuned to the details of both the natural and energetic realms. Her role is to help us find order and create a life that is sustainable so that we can become the best version of ourselves.
Virgo is a mutable earth sign that gives form and substance to her ideas, helping us to hold tight to our goals as we navigate the transition into the harvest season. Mercury's rulership over this sign gives Virgo the mental acuity to be able to chart a course of action that is practical and efficient.
Virgo represents the WATER of Earth. This energy can show us how to prioritize our well-being and care for what's important to us through the development of routines and daily rituals. When you learn to move the energy of this powerful archetype through your physical body, you attract the magick of Virgo into your life more quickly. Below are some ideas and suggestions you can incorporate into your dance and movement practices to align with this energy...
Energetic Qualities of Virgo:
- Earth Element - circular and cyclical, repetitive, nurturing, protective, soft yet sure
- Yin/Lunar Polarity - RECEPTIVE, pulling energy in from the outside world, focused on what's happening within
- Mutable Modality - CHANGES movement to adapt and distribute energy around oneself
- Interpersonal Orientation - motivated by the awareness and expression of a connection to one's environment
Moving with the Virgo Archetype:
Learning to move with Virgo energy can teach us to prioritize healthy habits, develop sound structure, and find smart solutions to any challenges we may face. The movement themes present in the Virgo Archetype are those of a priestess, healer, or doula - caring for those in need with wisdom and skill.
This sign expresses the qualities of earth with fluidity and care. Try experimenting with regimented sequences that are kept close to the body, the idea of building structures, focused shapes that vary in speed/levels/qualities, and moving in an intentional and precise manner.
