Earth Magic

There are many rituals and ways to honor the Earth and bring her energy into your practice including gardening, using crystals and other natural elements, constructing an altar, movement – even walking, burying a time capsule, gardening, etc.

The astrological signs of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are Earth signs.

The Earth grounds us, so this is energy you want to call upon when you are feeling rootless, restless, untethered, disconnected, motherless or adrift.

Earth energy is associated with the Autumn Equinox because it is literally when we reap our harvest and remove our plants from the ground. It reflects the natural cycles of life, of agriculture, of weather and reminds us to slow down as we approach the colder months but to collect the bounty and use it in its wisest ways.

Earth and humans have a symbiotic relationship – she sustains us and we sustain her – so we may use earth elements in rituals designed to create balance and foster relationships, as well as to nourish our souls.
