The Yang Earth Rat Moon
Last moon, we closed out the Pig by thinking BIG! Now that we've moved on to the Earth Rat, it's time to get grounded and take little nibbles out from that great big pie in the sky. There's no way to swallow your vision whole, it would be far more appropriate to break it down into bite sized bits.
As for the poetry of the moment, plot your path. If your dream is to be one of those crazy race car drivers, then maybe look into auto-motives first. Get your head under a hood, change some oil, and kick a tire or two. From there you could explore box cars, go-karts, and grand prix race ways - but in the mean time, maybe just use your blinkers and yield to on-coming traffic. You can't expect to fly if you don't even know how to walk, run, or jump. Right?
To make this make sense, get realistic. If you have a big vision, take some time to chart your course, step by step. Anything's possible with plan - just not right now - so go to bed and dream about it. Save all that action for the fiesty Fire Horse Year ahead.
⧠Silent Winter Solstice â§
Sleep In: There is absolutely no reason to rush about.
Stare out a Window: Grab some hot chocolate and just sit there.
Lazy Day Dreams: Imagine all the action from the comfort of your couch.
Be a Sloth: Drag your feet. Get to it later. Find more ways to do less.
Make a Wish: This is the phase where magic happens.
