Crows have long been the subject of folklore, likely because they’re strikingly similar to humans, leading lives rich in personality, intelligence, and relationships. In this episode, we fly the streets of Seattle with a crow as she grooms her mate, delivers what appears to be a gift, and finally commutes miles away from her territory to gather and chat with thousands of other crows before it’s time to roost for the night.

Dung beetles might sound dirty, but the ancient Egyptians believed their god took the form of a dung beetle to roll the morning sun across the sky every day. In this episode, we roll with dung beetles around the world as they push their precious dung—often in balls many times larger than they are—over Florida pastures, Armenian highlands, and the vast South African savanna.

Brown bears lead deeply cyclical lives. They need to gain sometimes hundreds of pounds during the warmer months to prepare for winter hibernation, a lifestyle that brings them into frequent contact with many other species’ cycles. In this episode, we meander through the Alaska peninsula with a bear and her cubs as she teaches them to hunt salmon at the falls, dig for clams along the coastal mudflats, and use the regional rubbing tree.

Elephants are the largest land animals in the world. They are also intensely social and have advanced long-term memories. In this episode, a parade of Asian elephants makes its way through the Sri Lankan forest to a lake for drinks and mud baths, stopping periodically for group naps. The female leading the parade uses infrasonic rumbles—inaudible to humans, but traveling as far as two miles along the surface of the Earth as seismic waves—to invite friends and family around the forest to join her at the reservoir.

Platypuses are mammals unlike any other on earth. They lay eggs, ooze milk through their skin, and can sense electricity. In this episode, we travel with a platypus as he moves through his nightly routine on the island of Tasmania. He uses electroreceptors to hunt underwater and does a synchronized swimming courtship ritual with his mate, who then digs a burrow 40 feet deep into the riverbank to nest.

Sloths are the slowest mammals on earth. They can hardly see. They live in rainforests among jaguars, pumas, and countless other predators. Yet they survive. And they do it by being so incredibly slow, and living a life covered in algae. In this episode, we hang with a sloth in the jungle of Costa Rica as he spends a month digesting one single leaf, and we see the symbiosis and collaboration that surrounds him.

Humpback whales are among the most intelligent animals on Earth. Some scientists believe they might even surpass humans in self-awareness, empathy, and communication skills. In this episode, we swim with a whale as he teams up with other humpbacks to use bubbles to catch fish, rescues a sea lion, and puts his own spin on melodies sung by whales across the Pacific Ocean. This is the world in its natural state, defined by seasons, routines, and cycles. By the time this whale is ready to close one eye and go to sleep, you will be too.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Aquarius. Aquarian energy connects us to possibility. It is a fixed air sign that governs the parts of you that feel both detached from others and connected to the community of our shared humanity. Because these energies can be heady and erratic, they can get fixed on the future, pulling your focus away from the here and now. This meditation will remind you that this is the only moment that requires stewardship. Use this meditation to get centered in the present moment.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Aries. Aries is the first zodiac sign, and it rules over the head and face. When Aries energies are activated in your life, especially when you are striving to assert yourself and achieve things, you may find that you hold tension in your face, head, and jaws. This meditation will help you to gently release the tensions you've been holding in your body so that you can return to your day feeling relaxed and unencumbered.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Cancer. Ruled by the Moon, Cancer's energies are deeply emotional and vulnerable. It’s the part of you that, at its best, flows without attachment or defensiveness, is empathic, and willing to stay with complex or sticky emotions. This meditation will explore these energies, helping you to make room for and release whatever comes up without judgment.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Scorpio. Scorpio energies are often misunderstood because of their depth and intensity. Scorpio is a fixed water sign that holds in it the power of creation and destruction. It is the deepest of your inner waters, and within it lives your capacity to hold grudges, to forgive, to experience the transformational power of love, grief and passion. These feelings can be overwhelming at times, but are a powerful part of who you are.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Libra. Libran energies are represented by the scales, always in balance with each other. This is a mediation for bringing yourself and a relationship back into balance by returning both your and their energies to where they belong, so each person can be in greater harmony and alignment.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign represented by the archer’s bow—forever seeking and yearning. Sagittarian energies are the parts within you that seek adventure, truth, and to have direct experience with the world. This meditation will help you to tap into the expanse of your own inner landscape by simply accessing your ability to receive the present moment.

This meditation is designed to complement the sign of Taurus. Taurus is a sensual fixed earth sign. Its energies are enduring, but can be slow to change and can sometimes get stuck. This meditation will help you get present and cultivate greater acceptance of the here and now.

When Mercury goes retrograde, it is a reminder that for growth and progress to be achieved, we must reflect. Mercury is the planet of communication, and it governs both speaking and listening, as well as your lungs and your breath. When it is retrograde, we can experience shifts, disruptions, and even breakdowns in these areas. This meditation provides a sacred space for reflection and an opportunity to reassess your perspective, so that you can move ahead with clarity and confidence.
