“It is your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.”

Strong willed and confident, the Tiger isn’t one to stop and smell the roses, quite the opposite, energetic and determined, they are skilled in persistence that helps them stand out as leaders. A frank personality and willing to speak their truth, they gain others’ trust readily, both personally and in the public arena. 

The Year of the Fire Rooster provides fertile ground for Tiger to expand their career territory. With the blessing of many stars luck will unfold and be smooth. There will be joyous celebrations in the household. However Tiger needs to be aware of one unlucky star that may take them into the court room with lawsuits and legal entanglements. Best to start the year right with an abundance of good deeds to offset any unpropitious energy the zodiac may cast.

Every year at the Chinese Lunar New Year, the Tiger leaps with one powerful bound onto the Zodiac horizon. Tiger can offer its determination and indomitable strength to help you persevere as you find your momentum. But if you can’t find your traction, call on this big cat’s super power of persistence to see you through a project, devise an agenda, develop a strategy or devote passion to your dream. You cannot miss when you have a tiger in your tank.

December 28 New Moon. Are You Willing To Make Lemonade?

Posted on by

“Life keeps throwing me lemons because I make the best lemonade…”
–King James Gadsden

There were some lemons in 2016!  But we have the opportunity to make up for those and manifest big at the December 28 new moon. It is a powerful, manifesting moon and the last new moon before the Chinese Lunar New Year, January 27, 2017. Three big positive themes are waiting for your enthusiasm and ecstatic participation. Are you willing to make lemonade?

Surrender To peace, to love, to your Source within. Ask for help. Allow yourself to receive help. Don’t turn down the gifts offered to you. With all the giving you do this creates balance.

Make lemonade We are dealt a hand of cards, but the key is not the cards you receive but how you deal with them that will bring the results you desire. Remember you deserve to be loved and deserve goodness. When you amp up your worthiness your life becomes more peaceful.

Break free At the snap of your fingers what one thing would you change? Switch careers? End a relationship? Change an eating habit? Breaking free of old patterns is an empowerment resolution. You have options and you have the strength to do it.

I am grateful to Doreen Virtue for the power themes he shared in her December 26-January 1, 2017 weekly oracle card reading. I felt a call-to-action to share them. I want you to feel the exhilaration of manifestation and there is no better time than the December 28 new moon.

[During the Chinese Lunar New Year, a Feng shui good fortune cure is to display citrus in your home. However if you are looking to implement citrus in your environment besides displaying it, here is a cleansing recipe you can use now and all year long.]

September 30 New Moon I Selfless Before Selfie

Posted on by

“Did you know that there are over three hundred words for love in canine?”
— Gabrielle Zevin

September 30 the “selfless before selfie” Chinese Zodiac animal wagged its way onto the horizon. Every month the leading zodiac holds a super power that can help us expand our awareness and reach our full potential. Dog has a multitude of exemplar traits so which do we choose? Its friendly nature? Faithful character? Smart brain? Straightforward manner? Venerable composure? Responsible attitude? Or is it our four footed friends’ “bow wow practice” that they have mastered so effortlessly? Bowing to the divine in their owners and feeling the wow of devotion. This simple act of expressing unconditional love creates strong bonds and gratifying relationships that can help you through difficult times. And maybe too that caring about what happens to another is all you need to feel good throughout the day. For us humans it might be easier to understand the love of dog by watching this Tonglen Meditation of Compassion performed by Tulku Tsori Rinpoche.

Your fame will be outstanding and both family and romance will go well. Consider refraining from verbal disputes and avoid communication that creates misunderstandings or you may experience unexpected disaster. Ox: a good month to remain low key in the areas of investing, career changes and hosting a grand opening. There is a larger margin for interpersonal disputes. Keep your impulses in check. Be mindful that others may see through your schemes. Tiger: it’s a Three Harmony month!  Your luck will be auspicious. Wealth will be available but do not be greedy. Let Nature take its course and then money will emerge. Maintaining a benevolent heart and doing good deeds benefits your family and you will gather in fame, profits and much good fortune. Rabbit: lots of money lucky bunny so take advantage of the full throttle Ch’i to support your investments or partnerships. Romance will be smooth sailing. Dragon: it’s a month of Direct Conflict. It there is money loss consider it as a way to maintain the peace. Be on the look out for car accidents, illness and refrain from associating with folks who will demoralize you. Perform a good deed a day and be willing to help others. A “single act of benevolence avoids a thousand evils.” It’s the antidote to disaster. Spread it around generously. Snake: “Heaven helps a good man.” Helpful People are at your assistance. Your endeavors demonstrate luck, prosperity and ease. If you establish a new business or take a trip abroad, both will be profitable. If you are offered a joint venture do not reject but rather go with the flow. Horse: gaiety and joy will be in abundance. Your career will flourish, your assets will rise and progress will be smooth in all endeavors. Keep a calm outlook and remember that matters can be resolved through good communication.

Though there will be an influx of money, monitor your expenditures in accordance to your income. Rooster: luck of the month is Most Confrontational. Rooster and Dog fight so you may expect disharmony in your relationships. You may quarrel with your spouse or loved one you are dating. At work you may experience personal disputes.

August 2 New Moon I Here’s Looking At You!

Posted on by

“The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And these qualities have little to do with success as we have defined it.”
– David Orr, Ecological Literacy: Educating Our Children For A Sustainable World

August 2 new moon we’re seeing double – the month of the Monkey in the Year of the Monkey. In the Five Elements Monkey is Metal and this Primate has lots of brilliance. Young Monkey children exhibit exceptional skills and acuity. Adaptable, amicable and always trying their best to help others, they are a popular zodiac sign. Excellent problem-solvers, Monkey dives into the heart of a discussion and leads the way to a smart answer that works for all. This month try on the curiosity super-power. You might be surprised what you find out about yourself–that it leads to a largess of spirit when you become deeply impassioned about the world around you. David Orr’s quote rather sums up Monkey’s open-mindedness and open-heartedness. These traits lay the foundation for kindness, for restoration, for living well, to be humane and that is sorely needed in a sometimes isolated, often times estranged world.

What does this lunar month hold for your Chinese Zodiac animal? Whatever the forecast, be brilliant. Rat: a Three Harmony month. Joyous events and wealth can be obtained through conventional and unconventional means. Adversity may show itself before the 10th of Lunar July (August 12). Be cautious and refrain from getting into conflict. After 10th of Lunar July (August 12) happiness and profits will come your way. Ox: as long as you are not greedy, investments will pay off. Opportunities to make friends are available but be discerning or you may be misled. All goes well in career and relationship. Expect they will be smooth. Tiger: double trouble. Your sign is in opposition to both the month and the year. Keep your eyes and ears open for scoundrels, lawsuits, money loss and unexpected disasters. In all situation make concessions to bring advancement. Learn how to be softer in your dealings. To avoid disaster perform “The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell” ritual on the first day of the lunar month. Rabbit: a harmonious family leads to success in everything so avoid quarreling. There may be gossip among friends, avoid that too. And there may be interpersonal disputes, stay clear. If you plan to take a trip perform, “Walking the Red Carpet Cure” and carry nine fresh orange peels. Dragon: it is a month of Three Harmonies. Adversities will melt into auspiciousness. Wealth and your wishes will bear fruit. Your physical and mental conditions will be refreshed. It is the start of the Ghost month, do not go near water nor walk alone at night. Snake: luck of the month is good with minor misfortune. There will be happiness and sorrow. Because it is the Ghost month be cautious in all matters. Don’t move across the country nor across town. Be careful when driving and watch for theft and burglary. Horse: be careful of negative energy that may be lurking and avoid water. Fate is determined by the heavens so allow life to unfold naturally. Be cautious, someone who means you ill will might be around. You can minimize the effect by performing “Avoiding Harmful People Cure” Ram: be cautious of negative Ch’i, the month’s activities may not proceed with ease. Do not go into funeral homes, visit the sick nor young children. Avoid water during this Ghost month. Focus on your long-term plans, it will help with addressing everyday incidents. Avoid knee-jerk reactions to situations or you may lose a good friend. Monkey: life will be in the extremes with great luck and great misfortune! As it is the Ghost month, do not venture too far that goes for trips, relocating or getting married. Refrain from being aggressive in your dealings. Spend more time at home and with family. Avoid going to hospitals, funerals and going near water. Rooster: gather immunity with “Walking the Red Carpet Cure” and carry fresh orange peels should you decide to take a trip. Since it is the Ghost Month keep young family members away from water. If you have a health condition seek immediate medical attention. If legal disputes are pending seek reconciliation. Dog: after last month what a relief to have a good month. Your luck will be smooth. If you keep your attention on the job at hand you will reap rewards. Though traveling is favored there can be misfortune as well as prosperity. If you take a trip perform “Walking the Red Carpet Cure” and carry fresh orange peels. Pig: not only are you entertaining bad luck, due to the Ghost month, you must take extreme caution. Best advice is not to relocate and stay away from places that are unsafe. Do not throw caution to the wind. Refrain from dangerous exercises or extreme sports. Have your wits about you, accidents involving falls, bloodshed and unexpected events may befall you. If you request a cure from this forecast, I will ask you to honor the red envelope tradition. Have a great month, Zodiac friends! 

The Ghost Month is back! King Yama has opened the gates of hell letting all the spirits and ghosts ascend. The dead are welcomed and shrines are decorated. But some ghosts aren’t as friendly as Casper, here are 8 taboos to ghost-proof your life.

Year Of The Fire Monkey. Tune In. Turn On. Take Action.

Posted on by

Your inner comedian is waiting.

February 8, 2016 begins the Year of The Fire Monkey. And no joking, loquacious Monkey is going to flip the year on its head with mirth and laughter. After two years of intense, focused Wood energy, optimism will rise and hidden intuitions will surface. Featured themes are mixing things up, creative change and taking risks. Monkey’s enthusiasm, need for stimulation and play, plus their inquisitive nature naturally lightens the mood. Their infectious sparkle will indeed rub off on you. Your energy will be bright, upbeat and you will just feel good about your ambitions with a plentiful supply of courage to push you out of your comfort zone and into action.

Yang Fire dominates Metal and will weaken Metal. However it doesn’t create a danger because Monkey is a strong Metal Element. Fire melts Metal and when Metal becomes fluid it means change will happen quickly. The two elements create the atmosphere for spending money, especially on travel and trendy items. Flexibility and humor are assets to cultivate and will serve you well in this Monkey Year. Expect anything can happen because it will. And watch for deception or you could be taken advantage of. Have your senses about you in all your dealings, especially concerning your finances and business.

Communication predominates and witty repartee will highlight social interactions. We will find our inner comedian and enjoy the spontaneity of conversation. There is better than good luck available but it will be random. Cleverness and the ability to solve problems will be enhanced. Taking small risks, original ideas and style will receive recognition and rewards.

Fire emits joy but the flip side is feeling scattered and disorganized which leads to frustration. Tempers will flare but move on quickly. Don’t be surprised if you feel impetuous which could lead to giving something valuable away or acting in ways that are not in alignment with your values. Think first!

Monkey’s continuous dialogue and Fire’s excitement may keep you up at nights. Balance your life with relaxation. Baths, walks in Nature, qigong and yoga will help settle a restless mind. The nervous system will be affected, possible nerve pain and we may see more cases of Shingles than previous years. Fire depletes Water. Watch out for inflammatory conditions of the kidneys and the bladder. Be careful about fire in your home, burns and accidents. On the upside the Metal element present your efforts to exercise, watch your diet and lose weight will be rewarded.

Entertainment, fashion, marketing/advertising, real estate, home remodel and renovations, food business, automobile industry, banking are favored. High tech can expect a decline. Airline industry will not do well and there may be more accidents. The popularity of drones and robots will increase.

Ritual celebrations help us link to the past. It strengthens our ties and builds our Ch’i. Celebrations are necessary for society and for the individual–for they are about cultural identity, life transitions and personal discovery. The Chinese believe they form a spiritual protection against unseen forces. Creating stability leads to success and prosperity.
