Happy New Year! As we step through the portal of 2025, we’re gifted with an opportunity to align with divine energy. I’m thrilled to share how I access the wisdom of the Four Elements in my life and through Tarot.
I’ll guide you through ways to work with Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. I’m also excited to announce something close to my heart: a special Tarot workshop at the world-renowned Esalen Institute this May!
As you journey through the year, play with the Four Elements and notice how they show up in your life. Whether you’re grounding in Earth, flowing with Water, expanding with Air, or igniting your Fire, trust that these energies are guiding you toward balance and fulfillment.
Earth, Water, Air, and Fire: the elements that make up our world. Their synergy is the perfect example of Divine Creation, balance and harmony, ebb and flow. These elements cue you to restore balance to your own energies.
This is Energetic Management—an inner power that is always there. It never diminishes. When you claim it, guide it, and know its strength, no amount of ups and downs can knock you out fully. Working with the elements is one of the superpowers of Tarot, which I turn to regularly to guide, heal, and inspire me. If you’re not a Tarot reader, there are some general ways you can leverage the wise and magical guidance of the elements in your life. Once you start watching for the magical ways these elements show up for you, you’ll see how it is all connected.
Ways you can work with the Elements on your Energetic Management Journey
Earth:
-
Meditation & Grounding practices: Make time each day to be fully present and centered in your body. There are endless paths to this experience. Explore new ways to stay connected. (Breath, yoga, being in nature, etc.)
-
Define what a solid foundation means to you and work toward it each day. (Need support? Click here.)
-
Fertility through creative endeavors, entrepreneurship, and generosity.
-
Balance routine with spontaneity. You never know where those unsought-out moments will take you!
-
Acknowledge your wins, and find meaning and purpose in your losses.
Water:
-
Reflection: Know when to rest, refocus, and rejuvenate.
-
Connect with your favorite people. Celebrate your tribe—maybe expand it through cross-pollination.
-
Honor your tender and wounded places by spending time being present with what can be uncomfortable. Seek professional counsel for self-care and healing to bring your full self into the new year.
Air:
-
Honor and feed your intellect, being mindful of what you consume each day.
-
Social activities: Make space for joy, friendship, love, and play.
-
Breathwork: Many breathwork practices can be found online. Explore your options and find one that feels good for you.
-
Communication: Speak with integrity, remembering clarity is kindness, and boundaries allow people to love and meet you in a space that honors your needs.
-
If you are normally gifted at speaking, try listening more, or vice versa. Expand your patterns.
Fire:
-
Charisma, creativity, spirituality, and sexuality are just some of the everyday ways Fire shows up to super-charge and transform your life.
-
Self-expression: Bringing your warmth and light (your gifts!) to the world.
-
Commit to this self-expression of your authentic spirit through the energy that is palpable—and sometimes not sustainable. Energy flows and shifts, requiring your presence in the moment and willingness to follow its lead.
