The Yang Metal Dragon
We've made it to the final moon of Spring, the Yang Metal Dragon. After this phase, Yang takes full flight up into the heights of Summer. That's when the rubber hits the road and things really start to ramp up - but for now, we wait. It's like the calm before a big storm. Can you feel the potential?
With regards to the poetry of the moment, this Metal Dragon captures this feeling perfectly. First, the dragon speaks to all the power present, while the metal element brings a reserved and reflective quality to the mix. It feels like a sharp blade held within a thin sheath. We're safe, for the moment, but the threat of clear and present danger looms just over the horizon.
When anxiety and anticipation arise and uncertainty couples with doubt, it can be easy to fall into a pit of panic. If you find yourself in such a funk, just remember that the other side of fear is faith. Tap into that dragon moon and muster up some courage. Hone into the essence of Metal and reflect before you get sharp. This threat will surely pass, until the next one comes around. Just remember - this is what we train for. Now go practice.
