The metaphysical root cause of worry and overweight issues is fear of abandonment and separation anxiety.

The fear of abandonment and separation anxiety are both considered symptoms of imbalanced earth element, and give rise to many of our world’s greatest health challenges, including many forms of addiction like alcohol, drugs (both pharmaceutical and recreational), obesity, diabetes, allergies and muscular aches and pains (see complete list of complaints below).

As children we get our earthy sense of connection and belonging from our family and caretakers. However, even in the best circumstances issues with attachment and letting go seem destined to happen.

The recent Taurus Earth Super Full Moon has especially affected the power of the earth element. Your emotions can fluctuate wildly after a super full moon.

You may experience emotional upheaval, as well as crazy thoughts and body aches and pains. 

Between now and the Sagittarius new moon is an excellent time for purging old stagnant energy, cutting of cords and releasing the past.

For the moon to come closer than 356,400 kilometers (221,457 miles) is quite rare.

In fact, the moon won’t come this close again in the 21st century (2001-2100) or the 22nd century (2101-2200). 

The next time the moon will be this close to the earth again won’t be until January 1, 2257 when it is 356,371 km (221438 miles) from the earth. This is the closest super full moon to earth, I was able to find, ever in recorded history. That’s 241 years from now! 

The last time the full moon came this close to Earth was on January 14, 1930 (356,397 km), at 23º Cancer, 86 years ago.

Notice any affects on your mind and emotions, as well as insights you may have. As you purge your mind and emotions your awareness may receive an upgrade between now and the Sagittarius new moon and the next Scorpio full moon on May 10, 2017.

The way to heal from toxic abandonment issues is to balance your connection to the power of earth. 

Balanced earth keeps you emotionally grounded and supports healthy survival instincts. When your earth power is balanced you recognize your connection with all of life. You no longer experience separation and begin to spontaneously awaken to your true potential.

Self reliance, personal boundaries and a renewed connection with others all naturally arise when your earth power is balanced. Any symptoms of imbalanced earth naturally start to fall away.

Key organs and body parts affected by imbalanced earth are:

• Stomach
