The Daoist Outlook・028

Mar 07, 2025

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 tension in the air. It's almost as if there's some underlying threat looming in the dark. If your sixth senses are tingling, that's because yin is still the big force here. Yang has barely begun its rise. Juggling any uncertainties? This is the time to get educated, not the time to act. Perhaps it would be best to sit this moon out to let the fog clear before you make any big decisions.

   Yin Earth Rabbits have big floppy ears. Use them to listen for the meaning behind the message. They also have soft, gummy paw pads on the bottoms of their long, fluffy feet. Use them to get a feel for the pulse of a persistent problem or behavior pattern. Learn to utilize all of your heightened senses to get a better perspective on situations before you start biting and kicking everyone around you. If you can navigate the pits of this moon cycle right, you'll have a long line of familiars wanting to hug and cuddle you. That's way better than running from hole to hole in fear for your life, right?

✧ Play it Safe ✧

Mind your Manners: Keep your side of the street clean.
Brush it Off: Don't take anything personally. Anything!
Smile More: Especially while you're being idle.
It's All a Big Show: Sit back and watch it like a sitcom.

Silly Rabbit, Tricks are for Kids

The Daoist Outlook・078
Waxing Metal Tiger    In many ways, this could be considered auspicious. Sure, we have a wild Fire Horse picking up pace, but we've also got a Metal Tiger for checks and balances. First off, Horses and Tigers make good business buddies, and the Metal and Fire forces are complimentary too. Think of a cast iron stove - not only is it functional, but it's classy too, and full of character. From ...

Happy New Year!    Forget about that Gregorian timeline everyone keeps raving about, in this community, we celebrate the moon! According to the mainstream, we're still in 2026 - but by our measure, we're already in the year 4724! That's nearly a 27 century long discrepency. Talk about a margain of error!    As for the poetry of the moment, chill out. You think the sky's never fallen before? ...

Earth Ox Moon Wanes    This year, Spring begins in silence. By the almanac's account, every year begins on February 4th. It's no different than any solstice or equinox, which also get locked onto the same calendar day, year after year. The only thing is, with everyone so excited about our mighty Yang Fire Horse on the way, no one really noticed the slow roll out of the new year already in blo...
