February 4, 2024 is a new Chinese year!
The energy of the starting moment of the Yang Wood Dragon year is as follows:
For those of you who are reading and following along, I'm also announcing here that the 2024 Golden Calendar is now ready and available to everyone for free! After signing up, you can now read and even take notes and set up email alerts for any Earthly Branch or Heavenly Stem Day!
The moment of shift is an essence that condenses all the major energy pulls we will be dealing with in 2024.
From the Yang Earth Day Master, the need for values that are timeless emerges. This year will show us which relationships, associations, businesses, families, friendships, ideals, etc. are the ones that will stand the test of time, as
2024 teaches us one of the strongest tests of all.
If you have believed in something that you thought was your strongest pillar, 2024 may bring a completely opposite view that will turn your sure path upside down. It can only turn you upside down, of course, if the subject is not built on stable elements.
According to Chinese astrology, the
Dragon is the luckiest of all mystical signs, capable of bringing to life what seems lost. It is the only one that can fly, of all the 12 zodiac animals, so it brings us a power that brings the divine direction down to the earth plane. You can get highs, and yes it is already flowing from the tap what power we can get in our lives, however the BAZI chart says this is only possible if our
Dragon fights against our demons. Isn't it a coincidence that it's Dog Day when the shift comes?
The Dragon and the Dog are the two dual opposites, representing the eternal analogies of darkness-light, underworld-highway, hell-heaven, unconscious-consciousness.
Not only do the Dragon and the Dog carry so-called oppositions (clashes) in our earthly actions, but the BAZI Chart also foretells the heavenly contest. Thus we can expect events that will unexpectedly bring up fears and subconscious blocks from the underworld guarded by the Dog.
The Dragon offers the possibility of opening a door to a better and more beautiful world for all of us, but we can only enter it after a complete purification of ourselves.
Can we get help? Yes, but not from outside, not from others, but from within ourselves, from the Divine Source. If you are not willing to accept this, then it can be a painful experience, as the charts indicates, not to look for help from others! If you don't have a job, don't look to your neighbour to give you a job, if you want a relationship, don't think in terms of appearances, etc.
For this very reason, the arrival of the Dragon can bring a double experience of "opening up" (opening the deep and dark depth of our subconscious). Think of the visual analogy: the Dragon from the sky brings light down into the dark subconscious fears, stored up for centuries, of the incarnations, of the false thought patterns we have been carrying around. If he now "breathes fire" on us from above with his celestial guidance, (literally illuminating) he can't be harmed much, at best he will be lifted up from his unpreferred events of earthly actions. Until then, in our life areas indicated by the Dog sign in our charts, we experience a wide range of emotions experienced in a disharmonious state of consciousness of heat, tension, need for change, etc. It is precisely this inner self-surrender, letting go, overcoming fears, struggles with unconsciousness that is taking place in the individual that can be projected onto events on Earth and in the outside world. A war is nothing but the external embodiment of the inner struggle of an individual. A volcanic eruption, an explosion that could even cause a world catastrophe, is also nothing but a battle of letting go of one's ego, of giving up one's self, of letting go of one's unconscious patterns.
We humans, now as individuals, the more flexible we are in the way of change, the more we protect our outer world from suffering.
From my personal experience and from a whole series of consultations, it is a powerful experience that each person is attracted to the right situations for their current frequency. I have often experienced, from narratives, the
"7K" energy of the ominous and posed as obstacles, death, hardship as wonderful experiences. Although we can learn the dreaded bad in courses and books, it is the
slap in the face of many people's lives that makes them realize grace.
So from this approach, I often began to help the person sitting next to me, not so much by explaining the meaning and content of the Chinese astrology constellations, but rather by emphasizing the fact of what they can do to raise their vibration level. The moment of the 2024 year shift, experienced at a low vibrational level, can be defined as a social and individual breakdown.
I highlight the 7K energy shift as the main profile of the entire year 2024, manifesting collectively and individually. Before I get cold and warm, I have to tell you the patterns of behavior that can be experienced at high and low levels. I can not highlight more that certain low vibrations attract less preferable, higher vibrations attract more preferred experiences.
Analogies that can be experienced at lower vibrational levels: violence, aggression, death, illness, war, crisis, rape, murder, divorce, break-up, loss of job, loss of property, resentment, sexual sin, secrets, being hindered, being restricted, being imprisoned, living in someone's shadow
Higher vibrational states to experience: letting go, creating a new life, moving into a better hope, venturing into the unknown, leading a good cause, career leap at work, professional authority, recognition, tantric experiences in sexuality, embracing truth, creating freedom beyond overcoming obstacles, embracing oneself
As the high level of consciousness analogies suggest, these are not easy steps. It is not easy to change a job, to step out of one's comfort zone, or to get out of the shadow of a dictatorial political system. Just as it is not easy to leave a toxic, punishing and restrictive relationship.
We will need great courage in 2024.
Courage, as described in
David R. Hawkins' book Force vs. Power, is already evident at the 200 level. He says this is the
critical turning point that can separate the negative effects from the positive. It is here that we can experience what it is like to let go of fears, ego, anger, and become able to see challenges from a completely different perspective.
I would like to encourage all my readers to read this book, if they have not already done so, which can raise the level of the reader by 35 levels, which is an exceptionally high level, since the average level of consciousness in a whole lifetime is only 5 points, according to David R Hawkins' descriptions and experiences.
Let us return to the visual analogy of the chart. It will do so with metaphors that fit the Yang Wood: it protects (as a tree's expansive crown protects those underneath it), it shades, it holds together, (in The Secret Life of a Tree, a forester tells how trees hold together, how they protect each other with their roots and branches). What is coming in 2024 wants to and can serve humanity, but at the same time, the false power systems must be redefined. Imagine a giant tree forcing its growth into a rock, reaching down with its roots, 'breaking off' into its depths, at the cost of the rock even breaking, reacting by crumbling. A difficult lesson, but not impossible by visual analogy, and in fact the images of these metaphors are always present in nature. The element of wood is a symbol of learning, of development, so the metaphor is a strong indication of the time that
consciousness is destined to rise.
In this sense, what can we expect in the events of the outside world?
Natural catastrophes, earthquakes, volcanoes, explosions and all movements marked by the mother earth will be prominent in 2024, which could even threaten people's long-term lives.
Everything we used to believe and think about the way the world and ourselves work will now force us to become even more self-aware. The chart shows this through the
"friend" abbreviation
(companionship-self-element)
It brings to the fore questions about ourselves, our personality, our ego, our self-awareness, who we are, why we live:
Friendships can end or new ones can be made, we can find our new selves in community events. 2024 will be the year when we can rewire our own perspective. Self-time, finding ourselves, becomes important. Perhaps now is the time to give ourselves that journey or long desired self-awareness training we've been putting off.
In the chart, both the Dragon and the Snake have its so called Empty element:
In 2024, our desires, plans and goals that we thought were important may suddenly become insignificant in the light of what we are experiencing. Dissatisfaction and lack of purpose can creep into our daily lives, but if you listen, you'll notice that it's all there to make you self-aware and start to incorporate self-awareness into your daily life. In relationships, at home, at work, travelling abroad, raising children, a sense of 'what' can all come into play. You can take on what would be someone else's greatest desire, yet not realise it is the gift of a lifetime.
For many individuals, this time of year is a time for new thinking, and this can be aided by various astrological, quantum physics, spiritual and awareness teachings.
What will help us in 2024?
Celestial guidance, intuition, dreams, sudden flashes of events, snippets of the near future.
According to the chart, what is the direction and purpose of these great changes?
According to the hour pillar, answering this question can also generate sharp contrasts. It can be split into harmonious and disharmonious perspectives.
Sacrificial thinking, martyr perceptions, abandoning the "poor self" for the presence in our world of righteous people who can see the beauty of life, who can think with deep love and gratitude. Change does not secretly require sacrifice (Jin Fire is the most self-sacrificing of all signs, putting up with a lot and then, when fed up, blowing everything up around it).
If you look at the chart,
Tiger and Snake meet, which in traditional Chinese astrology means
punishments, but also a certain
harm position, which indicates that they are in immediate reactive relation.( In other words, what goes around, comes around). This means that as soon as an individual fights and makes way for their goals, they will immediately receive reward. The reward here, of course, may be in terms of the level of the vibration of which we act.
In the case of aggression or abuse, the individual receives his or her punishment back through his or her own loved ones.
Pay attention to given promises, for if we do not keep our promises we may feel similarly betrayed.
If we project this onto a country, and that government is a dictator, its citizens will feel betrayed, feeling the ingratitude of their leader.
If we project it onto an individual, and a teacher fights for the education of schools and students with unconditional love, he or she will immediately get it back with the love and help of his or her students. So, with this in mind, this year in 2024, the strikes can achieve their goal.
This is how a revolution starts, the question here is one of collective power, of consciousness. Will we be able to transcend ourselves and stand up both in our own actions and in our actions for others?
The main emphasis in 2024 is the test of PEOPLE, HUMANITY.
And where do we set out boundaries?
