Synopsis
A common thread that connects us all to the world and each other is the use of our physical senses to experience the particular energies of the earth element. Working closely with the energies described in astrology of earth sign children, this story is designed to embrace the child’s deepest desire in life for security, connection, and comfort through a natural and innocent attraction to nature. This book has been carefully and beautifully created to capture the natural characteristics and energies of earth sign children in order to allow shared connection to their internal and external selves by using a touch of magic, spirituality, and poetry.
About the Author
Veronica Red has found a way to uniquely express her perspective relating to each element using her understanding of energies—earth, fire, air, and water—through astrology, tarot, and spiritual arts. Her fondness for each elemental energy experienced in her own childhood has given her the loving passion to share with others a way to incorporate and celebrate the connection between our physical senses and our spiritual essence. Her exposure in working with youth seeking support for mental health issues, along with her own children, revealed doubts in senses of self from an early age. She believes this to be of heavy past conditioning by society that encouraged huge changes in our natural templates rather than truly embracing each individual trait. The purpose in writing her stories is to shed light on the need to allow children to use their very own natural guidance and energies in a supportive environment that embraces them as a whole.
