As the new moon graces our skies on Friday, 9th February, it marks the commencement of the Chinese Lunar New Year on Saturday, 10th February – ushering in the auspicious Year of the Wood Dragon.
Dragons, those magnificent creatures that have captured human imagination for centuries, hold a special place in my heart. Particularly in Chinese culture, where they symbolize not fear, but rather good fortune and prosperity. In a dragon year, boldness is rewarded, and grandiose plans have the potential to soar to great heights. However, as with any adventure, a sprinkle of caution is advised. Diversify your ventures and avoid putting all your eggs in one basket.
2024, aptly an eight year, holds profound significance. The number eight, when turned sideways, embodies the infinite, suggesting boundless possibilities. It’s a number that harmonizes opposing forces—spirit and matter, the ethereal and the tangible. Embracing the cyclical nature of life, the eight reminds us that obstacles are merely temporary roadblocks, and with perseverance, they can be surmounted. Every challenge presents an opportunity for growth and evolution.
Harnessing the power of the dragon alongside the cyclical nature of the eight, we navigate a journey filled with both daring risks and patient waiting. Just as the dragon breathes fire, igniting our passions, the eight whispers of balance, urging us to tread thoughtfully through life’s twists and turns.
The new moon in Aquarius, gracing the sky at 10:58 pm on 9th February, signals a cosmic shift in energy. As a super moon, its influence is palpable, nudging us towards progress and innovation. Aquarius, a sign synonymous with forward thinking and social consciousness, inspires us to break free from convention and embrace our individuality.
Now is the time to envision the change you wish to see and embrace your authentic self. Dream big and explore unconventional paths, for it is in daring to be different that true transformation unfolds.
As the new moon invites us to set intentions, let us not forget the importance of action. Write down your aspirations and stride boldly towards them, for fortune favours the brave.
