Yin Metal Rabbit Moon

   Shifu will often joke about the Yin Metal Rabbit relating to O.J. Simpson. If you think about it, it kind of makes sense - at least from a Chinese Astrology perspective. Look at a zodiac wheel and you'll find the Rabbit precariously tucked between two beasts of prey - Dragons above and Tigers below - just like O.J. being chased in his white Bronco by police cars AND helicopter. 😅

   As for the poetry of the moment, be careful. Everyone knows that rabbits can multiply like crazy - but have you ever considered why? Well, if you're familiar with the literary classic "Watership Down," then you might also be aware of how dangerous life can be for a bunny. Sure, your old Rabbit's foot might still be considered lucky, but the rest of its body... not so much.
   To make this make sense, mind your hide. When everything is sprouting up, new and fresh, you can't blame life for an accidental nudge or two - you just have to watch your step and keep your head up. We're in prime time for manic mood-swings and spontaneous breakdowns, so try not to take things personal and be sure you're solving more problems than you're causing.

✧ When Danger Lurks ✧

Lock it In: Handle all your necessities.
Forgive and Accept: Let all that little stuff slide!
Simplify Life: Look for satisfaction in the insignificant. 
Stay Connected: Update your neighborhood watch.
Practice Gratitude: None of this is promised.

Silly Rabbit! Tricks are for Kids!
