Fire Ox Month: January 5-February 3
Elements of the month: yin fire and earth
At the beginning of any new year, it is always considered auspicious for the coming year to generate harmonious energy, so aim to compromise as much as possible. It’s not always easy to see others’ point of view, but if you can be less reactive and more proactive, you will have an easier ride with the energy of the Snake, which can be unpredictable. Don’t underestimate your personal potential.
Are you ready and prepared to shed old skins and thought patterns to be the best you can be going forward?
This Ox month is about business, making money and moving forward, while listening more and talking less. This month brings balance and calm as we transition between the two years.
Mythologically, the Ox was the messenger between Heaven and Earth, bringing dreams of strange images that prepare us for the year ahead while helping to process the one that has passed. The ancient Chinese pictogram of the Ox shows a hand that symbolises the means by which the invisible becomes visible through action and expression.
Life is a gift and cyclical, offering us the opportunity to make corrections and the power to move forward with our dreams and goals with another year of wisdom to draw on. This is the time of the year for rebirth, renewal and reflection – how can we do better and be better?
