Your personal astrology chart provides a ‘cheat code’ into what you need to feel nurtured, emotionally and physically, so it is the perfect place to find ideas for personalised self-care rituals for yourself. There are three places in your astrology chart to look for self care rituals for the Zodiac signs.
- Sun Sign
This is your vitality and energetic temperament; the identity, and therefore the part of the body that we lead life with. - Moon Sign
This is what you need to feel emotionally nurtured, secure and comfortable. We can manifest physical symptoms in the body based on emotional needs. - Venus Sign
This is how you uniquely connect to your feminine energy, how you give and receive love and your relationship to pleasure.

I’d recommend checking the signs for all three of these placements for you and seeing which self care ritual resonates most with you – ask your intuition.
Or, add all three self care rituals to your own personalised Self Care Menu and choose one from your Menu each week, depending on what your body needs most.
