Earth Sign: you are practical and work to achieve your goals. Family represents your true wealth; you are a loyal friend for life. You may feel like hugging a tree or feel the power of the tree and use its’ strength, with its’ roots reaching deep within the Earth and limbs reaching out to the stars… grounding any excessive energy. Breathe in life, with your feet touching the Earth, and feel the magic.
Animal Guide: Bear – they are often loners, just taking their time, enjoying the treasure hunt for goodies after a long hibernation. Bear offers great strength and courage but dislikes fighting, unless backed into a corner.
