CHAPTER 1
WHAT IS SELF-CARE?
A strology gives insights into whom to love, when to charge forward into new beginnings, and how to succeed in whatever you put your mind to. When paired with self-care, astrology can also help you relax and reclaim that part of yourself that tends to get lost in the bustle of the day. In this chapter youll learn what self-care isfor you. (No matter your sign, self-care is more than just lit candles and quiet reflection, though these activities may certainly help you find the renewal that you seek.) Youll also learn how making a priority of personalized self-care activities can benefit you in ways you may not even have thought of. Whether youre a Capricorn, a Pisces, or a Taurus, you deserve rejuvenation and renewal thats customized to your signthis chapter reveals where to begin.
What Self-Care Is
Self-care is any activity that you do to take care of yourself. It rejuvenates your body, refreshes your mind, or realigns your spirit. It relaxes and refuels you. It gets you ready for a new day or a fresh start. Its the practices, rituals, and meaningful activities that you do, just for you, that help you feel safe, grounded, happy, and fulfilled.
The activities that qualify as self-care are amazingly unique and personalized to who you are, what you like, and, in large part, what your astrological sign is. If youre asking questions about what self-care practices are best for those ruled by earth and born under the determined eye of Capricorn, youll find answersand restorationin Part 2. But, no matter which of those self-care activities speak to you and your unique place in the universe on any given day, it will fall into one of the following self-care categorieseach of which pertains to a different aspect of your life:
Physical self-care
Emotional self-care
Social self-care
Mental self-care
