In these challenging times we can easily become overwhelmed by the feelings, emotions and fears of others. When we are told to ground, center and clear the overwhelm not everyone understands how to do this or to focus on it. Energetic Sweeping is a tool for your grounding and clearing belt. With it, you use the element of your strongest astrological aspect (see below) to purge your auric field. The elements are Earth, Air, Fire and Water.
To Sweep: see your element surround you, flow below your feet, up over your head and spin gently clockwise (clockwise is a forward movement and we want to move forward and upward right now). If you are on the cusp of a sign then use both elements. For example, I am Air and Earth, so I see air moving around me with clumps of soft brown dirt that flows out in my aura like the rings of Saturn. It both grounds me and lifts me to know my energy is clear, centered and safe at this time.
Give it a try, just see it in your mind’s eye (imagination) and rise above it all while being present in the body. It is a great way to reclaim your space in a gentle way. Play with it and also add the elements of your Moon and Rising sign if you know them. It makes for a great clearing and co-creating energy.
