Welcome the Year of the Wood Dragon!
Chinese New Year falls on February 10th this year, ushering us out of the gentle spirit of the water rabbit and into the growth, change, and majesty of the wood dragon. All across China, people of all social strata make the trek, sometimes near, sometimes very far, home to be with their families. Did you know that Chinese New Year brings about the largest annual migration of people in the world? Book your travel well in advance!
The dragon holds a special place in Chinese culture, being considered a mythical and somewhat god-like creature. Therefore, high value is placed on being born in dragon years, as you too are considered somewhat mythical if born during this auspicious time.
Dragons are considered noble and kind, their energy ushering in transformation and change. This effect will be extra strong this year, as the dragon’s associated element for the year, wood, is about growth, learning, and evolution. While we strive to grow as a species, change can be difficult, even when it is beneficial for us.
Wood energy and the Liver Qi are one in the same. Much in the same way that the wood energy of spring can often stagnate our Liver Qi, making us cranky and irritable for seemingly no reason, that wood energy will be dominant throughout the year means that the more attention we place on being kinder and patient, the better we’ll feel.
新年快樂!!
