CHINESE ASTROLOGY UPDATE: NOVEMBER 10-13 2014 It is the second 9th moon WOOD DOG in Wood Horse Year “Gate Dog” Wood Dog moons are articulate, talkative and active times. Success comes easily from work and focus – if you are ready “to get on with it” good fortune will fill our lives. Social skills, networking and an attractive appearance can aid all of us in acquiring wealth, position and even leadership. This moon helps find fated relationships quickly and easily – recognizing “old friends” at first glance (intuitive eye). Be compliant to those you trust and enjoy friendship to the max. Wood Dog moons allow many, many people to respond to medical treatment well and recover from illness quickly and thoroughly. Qi Node: Winter Begins - Yin Hides Yang - WATER “Stand of Winter” The qi node called Winter Begins is a time of growing cold and the development of Big Yin qi. Days get short and nights grow long. The ground hardens (but does not freeze), insects disappear and the last harvest must be stored away. During this period the environment grows ever more Yin and is characterized by cold (water element). The winter is the great Abyss of Yin. If yang is not stored the world is barren. As the last of the autumn qi subsides, a cold north wind (qi) appears and the season of winter begins in earnest. Dampness (Earth) riding the cold wind is only occasional. Winter is here and there is a chance to enjoy the Cold. During this period the environmental qi is best at 9pm. Neigong is practiced in the morning and just before bed. Dreaming with intentionality is enhanced. The dreamtime opens up to re-imagine your life. Monday Nov 10 - lunar 9/18 :: Wood Rooster “Crowing Rooster” day Constellation : Roof/swallow :: solar indicator: Open The day commemorates the Lord of Epidemics - is it as bad as it sounds? It is a day when we ought to be grateful for our good fortune and make offerings to those negative energies that have passed us by. In a limitless Universe not a single negative event does not benefit some other. To live in harmony the early Chinese Tradition did not just partner up with beneficial forces but also acknowledged the negative. Effigies and surrogates are offered. The notion that humans are uniquely privileged due to the worship of some god is nonsense; we as human beings must stand up for our particular Space. Today is therefore about boundaries and vigilance. It is auspicious to stay home, repair and/or increase security and initiate new construction (ritual ground breaking). Offer discounted medical treatments. Enjoy soothing music, cook at home and make things by hand. Do not be cowardly - the Epidemic lords are not THE devil. Take extra care of your health. Be double vigilant about cleanliness at the clinic, do not visit hospitals or nursing homes and stay out of the wilderness. Some relapses will occur for qi deficient patients. Melancholy will pervade. Suicide (sacrifice) may occur for patients with some chronic disharmonies. The Liver channel is open. Use foot points of the Gallbladder, Bladder and Liver channels. Mild tonification is better than clever symptomatic treatments work. Food and modest exercise are powerful today (particularly in the afternoon). Babies in the womb protect their moms. Tuesday Nov 11 - lunar 9/19 :: Fire Dog “Guard Dog” day Constellation : House/pig :: solar indicator: SHUT The qi of the day has a contemplative-ritual urge. There is a sense that inner calm can be united with a BIG cosmic calm today and, in doing so, loses its dualistic flavor. The image is enhanced by secret or esoteric practices so ritual (the Steps of Yu) practiced today has true profundity. Offerings to the ancestors bring a rain of blessings. Homa and sang (fire rituals) is enhanced. It is also auspicious to make fengshui adjustments to shops and offices, get married, sign contracts and bury the dead. Memorials for the dead bring prosperity. Don’t sit on your hands or be confrontational. Don’t postpone or procrastinate. It is inauspicious to enter retreat, overindulge and take physical risks. Be cautious if you travel (start out in SW direction). Keep an eye out for con artists and hustlers. The Small Intestine channel is open. Use Small Intestine 3 between i-3pm and Spleen 4 all day. Weak and elderly patients may enter coma - letting them pass is best; it is a good day to die. Reducing excess heat is helpful and digestive disorders will respond well to treatment. Shoulder and neck massage is enhanced. Modest treatments are best. Invasive or exorcistic treatments risk fatality. Avoid surgeries to the lower arm. Wednesday Nov 12 - lunar 9/20 :: Fire Pig “Mountain Pig” day Constellation : WALL/porcupine :: solar indicator: Design The setbacks of today are the fertility of the future. The jie qi stammers but it is auspicious to stumble and halt. Sudden obstacles may appear but they are there for protecting you. Think - there is only enough wine for a taste and you drive home safely (sober). The jie qi, the biggest sense rolls on, but we are dropped out for a day so as not to be overwhelmed. If we know this is coming no difficulty at all will be felt. Business as usual is fine if we avoid risks. In fact, the day is good for shopping for big items or luxuries. It is a good day for hiring consultants, team meetings and listening to experts. New and favorable ideas about resources can emerge. Lunch with a smart colleague is profitable. It is a good day for medical treatments. Don’t withdraw or enter retreat. Don’t declare your affections. Don’t skip breakfast (lunch or dinner). Don’t be a hypocrite. The Heart channel is open. Use Small Intestine 3 between 11am-1pm. Massage the foot-ankle thoroughly. On-set stroke patients respond favorably to treatment. Skin rashes are successfully treated. Modest but not precise treatments still have favorable results. Talk therapy makes favorable progress. Postpone shoulder surgery. Thursday Nov 13 - lunar 9/21 :: Earth Rat “Storehouse Rat” day Constellation : STRIDE/wolf :: solar indicator: DIVIDE The day continues yesterday’s theme with a stronger sense of editing or loss. It is an auspicious day for throwing stuff overboard. Think dump stuff now in order to reach a goal that has much greater reward. Think less is better in the sense that it can be easily managed. It is a good day for remodeling, banking, collecting accounts receivable and storing only what is essential. Clean out cupboards and drawers. Sing loudly in the shower - don’t be shy. It is another harmonious day for the season where editing what is to stored (winter) is easy and fruitful. Cut your hair if you are feeling strong or aggressive. Instincts can be trusted. Today is Lha Bab Duchen a commemorative of the Buddha’s descent from Indra’s heaven. Google it. The accumulation of good and bad karma is multiplied today - caution in all actions is advised. Be generous. Dedicate merit. Sentimentality is out. Travel is risky (invites loss). Research is fruitless. It is not recommended to dig the ground (burials will cause more deaths in the family) and earth spirits will be disturbed in the garden (farm). Do not hang prayer flags. The Stomach and San Jiao channels are open. Use San Jiao 5 between 11am-1pm. Minor disharmonies, even those with genetic roots, respond well to treatment. Disciplined personal self-healthcare will show rewards in the Kidneys today. Treat rebellious Liver qi. Abdominal massage is enhanced. Eat simple food (less fat and sweets). Talk therapy makes favorable progress. Death at the end of a long illness is favorable. Avoid abdominal or thoracic surgery.
