Wood Snake leaving as Fire Horse arrives

For the next two weeks, help prepare yourself for the coming change in energy from the Wood Snake to Fire Horse.

• Focus on your personal energy, conserve it, protect it, be aware of how you expend it.  Rest when you can.

• Finish clutter clearing and give everything a good clean on the days you feel up to it.

• Tie up any loose ends/anything outstanding, cut ties where needed.

Wood Snake was Yin energy, introspection, emotions, quiet reflective energy.

Fire Horse is Yang energy, outgoing, driven, fast.  We are also in the second year of Period 9 in Feng Shui which is fire element, therefore double fire energy.

With all the excess fire energy around for the year ahead, this is a good time to check your electrics and electricals, get that dodgy lamp or plug fixed or get rid of them. Is it time to update some of them?

Look after your heart during year of the Fire Horse, in Chinese Medicine the heart is connected to the fire element.  When things speed up, which they will in a Fire Horse year, keep an eye on your blood pressure too.  Here’s a lovely practice that can help -

🌹Place one drop of Rose essential oil in the palm of each hand, press together then gently inhale the scent, now place your hands over your heart chakra area and take a few deep breaths.  Do this several times a day to reassure your heart and bring you back to yourself.

If you are a more Yin type of person, nervous system regulation and staying grounded will be key for you this year.  Meditation, Tai Chi, Breathwork and walking in Nature will all help, create daily and weekly practices to support yourself.  Swimming also helps cool the excess fire energy, as does drinking water little and often throughout the day.

The positive side of the fire energy is that it will burn away what is no longer needed.  The downside is that some folks can get so excited with all the positive changes that they almost burn themselves out.  Balance is key, your inner yin and yang and on an outer level, both male and female human beings need to step up as leaders together in a balanced, harmonious way.  Discernment is also important as you could get carried away with all the excitement, slow down and check it/them out before galloping off into the sunset.

We all need to learn how to ride the Fire Horse and all the twists and turns that it will bring.  It’s a good year for personal and business growth, for being bold and taking action.  It’s a more optimistic year that enables you to have the confidence to step into your personal power in a more dynamic way.  Just remember to stay calm and grounded and all will be well.
