Full Rabbit Moon
We're traversing some mystic moments at the moment. Can you feel it? We've been raving about this magical moon for a few weeks now, but we're not the only ones. Interestingly enough, over 1⁄4 of the planet's population is fasting right now in celebration of the Ramadan Moon....
Lucky Rabbit's Feet
The waxing rabbit moon is a time of hyper sensitivity, and all the more so in a snake year. These two animals are considered the most mystical of the twelve, so the veil may wear thin while the two of them are together. Have you been feeling it? There's a bit of tensio...
New Rabbit Moon
We're all familiar with the iconic white rabbit archetype, complete with it's classic line, "I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!" Rabbits are known for running, and they don't really have a choice. Caught in between last month's tiger moon, next month's dragon moon, and all while i...
Tiger Moon Wanes
And with that, the Yin Wood Snake Year is off to a strong start. As we wrap up this Tiger moon, it's a good time to assess how you managed all this new energy of the Spring season. Did you go out and squander it all, or have you been good about your pacing and tempo? Be care...
Twenty Five Down
This is quite the landmark for us! Twenty-five issues may not seem like a big deal, but if you consider there are only fifty-two weeks in a year, we're pretty much halfway through. They say big treasures come from heaven, but little treasures are accumulated bit by bit over ...
The Red Lantern Festival
It feels like only yesterday we were honoring the Yang Wood Dragon, and now here we are, already well into the Snake. The two week festival that we call Chinese New Year, is just about complete. It's officially finished on the first full moon of the year - a holiday ...
It's Tiger Time!
And we're off! The Yang Earth Tiger has kick started a fresh new year for us to navigate! Earth Tigers are mean, massive, and mighty. Try to imagine a fully grown apex predator and all the power it can pack in a single pounce. This beast could literally eat it's fill of what...
Happy New Year!
For almost all of Asia, the Lunar New Year celebration is quite literally the biggest party of the year. It honors the return of spring and the promise of renewal from the cyclical rise of yang. This two week extravaganza is full of colorful snacks, fresh fruits, fun foods, a...
Getting Clean for Spring
All too often, here in the West, we hear the phrase “spring cleaning;” but for us, the cleaning begins before spring. We want to clear the air to make room for a brand new year and all the abundance that comes with it. This extends beyond our mere material surroundin...
The Final Full Moon
This is a juicy time of year. Similar to how the native Hawaiians have all these different ways to describe the rain, or how the Inuit Eskimos have all these different ways to describe the snow, there are just as many ways that we can describe this yearly shift from the p...
Happy Solar New Year
Western civilization loves yang energy. Look at our winter - parties, bright lights, fireworks, and loud noises fill the air. Even our mainstream creation story begins with a Big Bang. Yet here we are, in the deepest pit of yin. All of this banging and clanging feels a l...
New Yin Fire Ox Moon
As the Yin Fire Ox Moon rises, we find ourselves in the final lunar phase of winter and the last moon of the Dragon Year. This transitional period is one of quiet reflection and careful preparation. This is when nature itself seems to pause and gather its strength. The f...
