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・091
Waxing Water Snake    There was once a Snake caught in a fire. A brave man saved the Snake by pulling it from the blaze, but in the process, the Snake bit the man and killed him with poison. Perhaps we could fault the Snake, but it's only natural for it to bite. Perhaps we could fault the brave man, but he only wanted to help.     As for the poetry of the moment, be careful! If you want to s...

Yin Water Snake Moon    Wow, Snake moon - the first moon of Summer! We often talk about how a Snake is really just the tail of a Dragon, but Snakes also have a personality of their own. On good days, they're wise, intuitive, attentive, intelligent, and caring. On bad days, however, they could be down right mean, manic, and manipulative - their misconduct is literally biblical. Care for an app...

Dragon Moon Wanes    Careful now, don't let the Dragon fool you. Remember at the beginning of the moon when we told you that the Dragon was really, really big? Well, this is where it shows up - you thought the Dragon was done, but NOPE! We still have another moon to go! You thought that was a Snake moon coming next? Better look again... that's not a snake - that's the Dragon's tail!    As fo...
