For millenia humans oriented their world according to the sky, the heavenly bodies giving guidance to their travels. In our modern world there is disorientation in regards to the reference point of the celestial spheres. You can rectify this by making a habit of looking at a compass and orienting your body towards true north several times a day. This is the Polaris ritual. At night make a habit of studying the night sky, such that it becomes a familiar landscape of constellations that orients you instantly when you view it. Study the moon's habits from day to day. Training yourself to be continuously oriented by the sky around you will connect you with this primordial intuition of navigation via the sky.
