The Shakti Yoga Dance, “Liquid Love” calls upon the divine to listen to our broken hearts, and to lead us onward. All my yoga/dance choreographies are created from the desire to share the energies of hope, love and joy. Each of us longs for the heart to be bolder ~to stretch beyond who we were. The international Shakti Sisterhood of teachers and dancers reaches out in support of one another, and of those in need. These dances have raised our vibration, deepened the ‘wisdom body,’ and opened our imaginative vision to a wider world. Come join us, join the dance!

Each virtual teacher training session is infused with the alchemical power of ritual with the integration of Yoga and Dance. They both open the body differently but in agreement with ancient archetypes of Shakti Goddess energies in a Practice of deep intention. ttps://dailybreathjournal.com/category/ritual-celebration

Each dance CULTIVATES an intuitive wisdom-body as it adds Yoga’s layers of asanas, mudra, chakra, bandha, and pranayama to dance layers of emotion and storytelling.

You CREATE divine connections within through music, meditation, and understanding ‘Emotional Intelligence.’  As you expand your physical expression, the heart opens and elevates the mind!

These dances EMBRACE your soul work as the body grows in courage and happiness, as they move and intertwine by step-by-step transformative practices: https://dailybreathjournal.com/well-being/

UNVEIL the tender and true parts of you, healing old wounds as you dance passionately into your Life.  https://dailybreathjournal.com/category/practicing/

ELEVATE INTENTION to heal Self, then the world- breath by breath, step by step, dance by dance. When two or three gather with the heart-open intention to create and share ~ healing and magic happen. I feel it, you feel it and the world feels it.

CONNECT to community AND Cosmos (See week’s Astrology below) Dances are created from the knowledge of Astrological energies, expanding intention, and intuition to deepen the process. Reach beyond the known, and connect your spirit to a soulful journey with like-minded others.

ON THE ROAD TO BECOMING YOU!

“The greatest thing in the world is to know how to be one’s own self.”   Montaigne

Wisdom Body Notes for April 15-22 by Samantha Cameron

The month of April holds the major energetic highlights of 2024, and they are all about becoming our unique selves, dancing consciously to expand a wave we are already surfing.  The great American Eclipse rattled the cage for surrender and change of self and country.  Its energies offered the opportunity to step into a higher-level warrior role, be it spiritual or power-based.  It also brought humanity to its knees in giving many Stateside a once-in-a-lifetime understanding of our world without the sun. It has shaken, not stirred electromagnetic fields, and nervous systems, destabilizing bodies, leaving us spaced out and limp.  There has also been increased mental confusion, along with transportation troubles, and wonky tech issues, all associated with a Mercury Retrograde.   Thanks to ‘the mind of Mercury being embraced by the eclipse, disruptions have been especially ‘elevated.’  During Mercury’s retrograde period, (4/1-4/25) it’s more important than ever to quiet the mind and listen to intuition, especially as we have an extraordinary opportunity to feel it grow!

The New Moon Eclipse was the threshold opening to one of the most important aspects in all of 2024, the Jupiter/Uranus Conjunction, perfecting on 4/20.  The following information offers an energetic understanding of what we are working with, not only on the day of, but we have been for several weeks, and will continue to do so well into May as the two planets involved are big outer planetary forces that when in contact with one another can change the creative intention of an entire world, never mind little ole you!

But little ole you is very involved in this energy splurge as both Jupiter and Uranus are electric conduits, asking each of us to open our minds to become trailblazers, risk-takers, and explorers.  This is a metaphysically expanded call to wake us and take us further than we have gone before into the revolution of new ideas, and ‘what if’ possibilities. The joining of Jupiter and Uranus symbolizes our quest to fully embody who we can be, and what we wish to express. Potential ramifications are enormous so pay attention to the doors you are opening, and closing as they offer invitations to transform through inner revelation and revolution.  This cosmic ‘birthing’ is a threshold moment when we need to decide how we wish to move on, who we hope to be, and what we desire to launch, especially if you are considering going off your beaten path.

Their energetic force field takes us off old roads as they break down limited thinking and vision, offer faith, courage, hope, and ebullience, as well as the shadow side of; dogmatic convictions, deep restlessness, distraction, and arrogance.  Choose well and wisely.  Their conjunction occurs every 14 years, and historically are notable times of big beginnings and breakthroughs in the arts, science, lifestyle, and of course technology.  America was birthed under their alignment in 1775, and as a result, the desire for freedom, exploration, even our naive buoyancy was bred into the country’s archetypal energies. Their rare alignments in Taurus took place in 1015, 1098, 1181, and 1941. They won’t line up in Taurus again until 2107.  As Taurus is ruled by Venus, expect her complexity of beauty, value, and creativity, especially in the arts, finances, body-centric, and earth-centric issues to be primary explorations.  In 1966-69, they aligned with Pluto, infusing the zeitgeist of the ’60s cultural upheaval. Remember Woodstock, the Beatles, Joni Mitchel, Elvis, Rolling Stones, Louis Armstrong, and many more all launched their first albums, plus we had the lunar landing when we viewed first photographs of Earth.

Not only take advantage of this creative splurge but hold awareness of its trickster shadow element.  Yes, it’s exciting and new.  But for that to happen, the old must dissolve and disappear.  The Berlin Wall fell in 1989, bringing enormous hope and regeneration as the Cold War ended.  It’s interesting that Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, a very Jupiter/Uranus figure, was born that year. There are innumerable other events and people infused with this energy, but you get the ‘wow effect’.  Now is the time to be your very own WOW.  Become your own unique genius.  Move outside the old box of limitations. Take advantage of unexpected opportunities.  Find your tribe.  Breakthrough stale trauma and depression. Conjure magic into substance. Be couragous~grow ambitious. Clarify dreams into reality. Process the potent until it formulates a new shape. Destiny calls! Pull excitement into your meditations, and honor who you already are so you can expand your wings to fly up to take the high road.
