The Astrological Body
Just as the movement of the heavens was believed to influence the weather, so it was believed that it could influence human physiology. The set of correspondences between the human and the universe has become known by the shorthand "microcosm/macrocosm". Hearkening to Platonic ideas, the microcosm of the human body was thought to contain cosmic relationships of the macrocosm of the universe. Each part of the body was associated with astrological signs:
Aries: Head, eyes, adrenals, blood pressure.
Taurus: Neck, throat, shoulders, ears.
Gemini: Lungs, nerves, arms, heads [sic], fingers.
Cancer: Chest wall, breasts, some body fluids.
Leo: Heart, spine, upper back, spleen.
Virgo: Abdomen, intestines, gallbladder, pancreas, liver.
Libra: Lower back, hips, kidneys, endocrines.
Scorpio: Reproductive organs, pelvis, urinary bladder, rectum.
Sagittarius: Thighs, legs.
Capricorn: Knees, bones, skin.
Aquarius: Ankles, blood vessels.
Pisces: Feet, some body fluids.

Balancing Stick Pose (Virabhadrasana 3)
What is Balancing Stick Pose?
Balancing stick pose, also called warrior III and virabhadrasana C in Sanskrit, is a standing posture that improves strength, stability and focus. It's often entered from warrior one or mountain pose (tadasana). While balancing on one leg, the opposite leg, torso and arms are lifted and parallel to the floor.
Instructions
Begin standing in tadasana with the arms stretched overhead. Interlace the fingers.
Exhale and bend at the waist. At the same time, lift the right leg from the floor.
Bring the arms, torso and lifted leg parallel to the floor. Gaze downward or slightly ahead.
Breathe while holding the pose.
Inhale and return to standing. Change sides.
