007. Yang Wood Horse Moon

Jun 08, 2026

   Aiya... it's a Double Horse. If last month felt warm, this month will feel like somebody poured gasoline on the campfire. This Fire Horse already wants all the action, and now a Wood Horse steps up to feed the fire even further. The result is a massive momentum - but also volatility. People are quicker to act, quicker to react, and quicker to convince themselves they know exactly how to save the world from calamity. Be careful. The Summer Solstice has arrived and there's enough energy to sweep a sensible person off their feet.


∙ Sum of the Month ∙ 

⭐︎ Your Key Word: Easy. If you're working too hard, it's likely wrong.
+ Tigers & Dogs:
You don't get breaks very often. Don't squander it.
- Rats: Maybe this piece of cheese is more than you can swallow?
± Monkeys & Dragons: Life isn't always a game. Try to be serious.
June - July 13th


   The lesson of Horse Moon isn't speed - it is control. Anyone can run when the gate opens. The question is whether you know where you're heading or not. This manic moon could tempt you into overcommitting, overspending, overpromising, and overextending. Just because you have energy doesn't mean you should spend it. Keep all of your feet on the floor. Stay grounded. Eat regularly. Sleep regularly. Meditate regularly. A Horse that has a rhythm will travel far. A Horse that sprints without a strategy will be limping before they know it.
   Rats, it would be wise to slow down and take things easy. The pace of the month may exceed you - that just means you get to slow down and wait for the next bus. Dragons and Monkeys should also play it safe. There's plenty of excitement available, but not all excitement is opportunity. Right? Tigers and Dogs receive a helpful boost this month, a little wind at their backs and a little extra confidence under their feet. Enjoy it - but don't mistake a little luck for favorable year. This assistance is temporary. Use it to strengthen your foundation rather than celebrate yourself.

011. Yang Earth Dog Moon
   Earth Dog Moon arrives at the end of autumn with a simple question: Who - or what - are you following? The Dog is loyal by nature, but loyalty is only a virtue when it is placed wisely. Stop running with the pack just because everyone else is running. Go home. Sit down. Rest at the foot of your master and remember what you're actually devoted to. And if you don't have a master, at least tak...
010. Yin Fire Rooster Moon
   The heat is changing. Summer's wild fire is beginning to settle, but don't mistake that for a weakness. Yin Fire Rooster is like the final polishing of a katana blade before it's put away for Winter. This month isn't about making big moves or stealing the spotlight. It's about refinement. Look carefully. Tighten loose ends. Finish what you've started. Humility and modesty will carry you muc...
009. Yang Fire Monkey Moon
   The seasons are turning. Autumn is here, but don't think the heat is gone yet. We are moving from Goat to Monkey, from collective momentum to a creative stop. The problem is that many people are still carrying the habits of Summer. They've been running hard all year, pushing, chasing, building, expanding. Monkey Moon arrives with an important lesson: pump on those brakes. If you want to hav...
