The element of EARTH represents the domain of physical form – where light is tightly bound into matter and everything manifests according to the laws of physics and nature.
Here we learn the cycles of cause and effect, growth and change, life and death. We bring our dreams into the world and watch them evolve. We put our relationships to the test, face challenges, experience suffering, seek answers, and develop compassion for others.
Rebalancing your relationship to the element of Earth is particularly helpful when struggling with challenges related to grief and loss, career, health, finances, and any other aspect of your physical reality. We work with the element of Earth through various types of cleansing with herbs or plants, offerings, nature art, forest immersion, and despacho ceremonies.
The Cycle of Earth
At a spiritual and energetic level, the Cycle of Earth encompasses the following aspects of life:
- Transformation. All of life transitions into and out of physical form, moving through birth, growth, death, decomposition, and regeneration that supports new life forms.
- Action. This is the energy where life thrives, and myriad forms of plants and animal life explore their instincts, desires and aspirations as an interdependent web of creation. We experience adventure, challenge, triumph and defeat, learning and growing.
- Healing. In the process of exploring we hit walls, stumble and fall, get knocked out of balance. The energy of healing found in the medicinal plants helps regain balance and harmony on every level– body, mind and soul.
- Compassion. As we heal from wounds, we naturally develop compassion for others experiencing similar challenges. This deepens our connections with the world around us and can accentuate an appreciation of life’s depth and beauty.
