The most effective way I had for adding symbols to my spiritual practices was with tarot cards and angel cards. By using these cards in our meditation practices we can better understand the symbolic meaning of these emblems and add them to our consciousness. I also found that understanding the symbols behind the chakras and zodiac can help me focus while I do breathing exercises. If you’re trying to heal your sacral chakra imagine the diverging angles of the sacral chakra. Then, imaginately trace your finger over the lines to help imbed it in your psyche.
