Trendelberg Test
Balancing the pelvis is a key factor in normal gait as well as yoga poses. Conversely, persons with weakness in the hip abductors develop what is known as a “Trendelenberg” gait, where the pelvis tilts up and shifts toward the affected side during the stance phase of walking. A variety of conditions can affect the hip abductors, including hip pain (from arthritis) and injury to the nerve supply of the gluteus medius.
In medicine, we test the function of the hip abductors by having the patient stand on one leg in the “Trendelberg Test”. When the muscles are competent, they automatically engage to draw the pelvis level; when the muscles are weakened, the pelvis on the standing leg side lifts (while the lifted leg side sags downward). At the same time, the spine curves toward the affected hip, with the shoulder girdle tilting towards that side. Image 1 illustrates the Trendelenberg Test. Note how the pelvis tilts and the spine laterally flexes when the gluteus medius does not engage properly.
Image1: The Trendeleberg Test; Image on the left illustrates the gluteus medius engaging to stabilize the pelvis. Image on the right illustrates pelvic tilt and lateral spine flexion with the dysfunctional gluteus medius.
The spine compensating for the tilt of the pelvis is an example of lumbar-pelvic rhythm. To read more on this important subject read our blog post, “Preventative Strategies for Lower Back Strains in Yoga”. To learn more about the muscles involved in one-legged standing poses read our blog post, “Improving Stability in One Legged Standing Poses.”

Let your animal self free, in all its unfolding dreams and liberations, Happy Solstice 🌞🌳

“The Summer Solstice is not a time for modesty. The wild world is not shy about its beauty and gifts. Plants and creatures are engaged in a no-holds-barred life-fest of blossoming and flourishing, each according to its unique essence, place, and purpose in this glorious weaving of Mother Earth.” – The Path of She, by Karen Clark

The Kiss of Venus

Venus around the Sun maps out the 5 Pointed Star over an 8 Year Period. It is thus ringing a Harmonic of 72-ness or 72°. This is beautifully referred to as “The Kiss Of Venus”

The numbers 72 and 360 are consistently seen in the mapping of time and the stars:

72 x 360 = 25,920

This number is the number of years for the Precession of the Equinoxes through the twelve Zodiac Ages. Each Age is 2160 years in length (12 x 2160 = 25920).

Ancient people around the world had been obsessed with keeping track of the movement of the sun along the horizon, and that some of them figured out the precession, by observing maximum points of movement through many years. It therefore takes 72 years, for the galaxy to move one degree (1°) in relation to he background of star constellations associated with the twelve signs of the
Zodiac.

eg 2 — The Pentacle within the Circle has its 5 arms or legs apart at 72°. This is because 360÷5=72°. This also means that the connections of Earth to Venus to Sun display a Phi Φ relationship or relationShift.

In the Heavens this is reflected in the path of Venus around the Sun which takes an 8 year cycle to fully trace out the Pentagram or 5 pointed star. If you were to measure this time from another perspective, in terms of Venus years, it would take 13 years to complete the pentagram. This astronomical wonder clearly embodies the 3 consecutive Fibonacci numbers 5:8:13.

“Unworthiness is often the greatest barrier to receiving love and pleasure. Even when someone gives us a genuine compliment, it can be hard to receive if we don’t feel equal to what’s being said. Imagine how difficult it is then to receive divine support when we don’t feel equal to the generosity of life.

Worthiness is the value, importance, and goodness that we ascribe to ourselves and to the world. But so much of what we value was inherited from our families and our culture. On the path to belonging, we must untangle our true values from our inherited, collective ideas of worth - and lack of worth - that have been woven into our beliefs.”
