Ways to Work with the Four Directions
There are many ways to work with the four directions. Below are some examples:
1. Set an intention for each direction. Spend a few moments in silence, focusing on your breath. Then, set an intention for each direction. For example, you may want to focus on abundance in the north, love in the east, wisdom in the south, and courage in the west.
2. Call in the energies of the directions. Once you have set your intention, imagine each direction filling up with its respective energy. Visualize it entering through your crown chakra and filling your entire being.
3. Connect with the element associated with each direction. As you focus on each direction, take a few deep breaths and connect with the element associated with it. For example, you may imagine the air of the north entering your lungs, the fire of the south warming your body, the water of the west quenching your thirst, or the earth of the east supporting you.
