The Daoist Outlook・006

Oct 04, 2024

Waxing Wood Dog Moon


   What's the strongest force in the universe? Is it magnetism, electricity, gravity? What about spirit, empathy, or love? From a modern Daoist perpective, it's none of the above. We value authenticity. Give us the real $#!&. Especially with winter right around the corner. You can't keep warm on a promise - we want substance.

   While riding a chilly, wood dog moon, authenticity is key. We're here at the tail end of autumn, so your bark better have some bite. You can't pack your pantry on thoughts and prayers alone. You need a real plan followed by real actions that get real results. It takes grit to conquer the cold. Anything fake or fashionable is sure to fail. Are you up to the task? Consider winter as your ultimate integrity test.

✧ Pre-Winter Authenticity Check ✧

Cai - 菜: How much you consume v. how much you produce.
Di - 地: The integrity and stability of your living environment.
Fa - 發: The efficiency and effectiveness of your workflow. 
Lü - 侶: The function and fluency of your community.

Rabbit Moon Wanes    And just like that, the second moon drifts away. If you have ever heard the expression "Time Flys," well, now you get to live it. Here we are, only having just begun the year, and we're already at the end of Spring! This raging Fire Horse has really ramped up from a trot to a gallop, and there are no signs of slowing. So hang tight - we've still got a lot of Yang in stock...

Full Metal Rabbit Moon    Rabbits are known to be busy bodies. They're typically sweet, bubbly, and bright with an especially strong sensitive side. Those floppy ears and tender paws lend to keen connectivity and heightened intuition. That sixth sense of theres is all the more heightened amongst mystical Metal types. To that end, this would be a good time to get spiritual - how ever that look...

Waxing Metal Rabbit    We all know of the classic adage depicting the epic race between the old tortoise and the spry young hare - well, we're living it now. If you're aligned with the mainstream-machine-mind-clock-calendar-construct, then you're likely under the impression that Spring has only just begun - but that would be the rabbit in this instance. The real winner of the race is our turt...
