Yoga Inspired by the Stars
The Healing Power of the Zodiac
Hello, I'm Jilly Shipway, author of Yoga by the Stars: Practices and Meditations Inspired by the Zodiac. Over my years of study, practice, and teaching of yoga and astrology, I have developed a method of creating yoga practices that are inspired by specific zodiac signs but are not designed to be used exclusively by those who happen to be born under that sign. In turn this means that all the zodiac yoga practices on this website, and in my book, Yoga by the Stars, are suitable for everyone, regardless of their birth sign or belief system.
Below is a guide to the healing potential offered to everyone by each of the zodiac signs. They are described in more detail on each of the Zodiac Sign pages of this website. See Menu or click on zodiac glyph below to get to each sign's page.

Libra: Open to the wisdom of your heart, restore peace to a troubled mind, learn to live harmoniously and in a state of equilibrium. Reconcile pairs of opposites in your life so that healing may occur. Make judgements, take action, create a more peaceful, harmonious world for all.
Scorpio: Face fear and find freedom and transformation. Learn to listen for the still, small voice of calm that will guide you through the storms of life. Shine the light of kind and loving attention to illuminate the dark spaces of the mind.
Sagittarius: Develop the power of clear intention to create miracles in your life. Learn to connect to a spacious, open, and expansive awareness by narrowing and focusing your attention. Take new paths, travel far, laugh, love, and live life to the full.
Capricorn: Transcend limitations and find liberation. Find new ways of working with and overcoming restrictions in your life. Discover the opportunities that lay dormant within your difficulties and open the door to self-discovery.
Aquarius: Draw from the wellspring of love. Learn the art of kind, compassionate detachment. Be rebellious, generous, dance, and ride the waves of change. Combine science, creativity, and love, to bring healing to the world.
Pisces: Dive deep to find self-knowledge. Peep behind the veil of the subconscious, free yourself from hidden influences and unwelcome gravitational pulls. Become the Sun at the centre of your own life. Attune yourself to the circular flow of life and learn to welcome light and dark, waxing and waning, and come face to face with love.
