Welcome The
Year of The Green Horse!
As February begins, so begins a New Year in the Chinese
calendar. It is the year of the Green (wood) Horse, and it promises a stream of
gifts and abundance for most of the people on earth. The last time this
magnificent energy visited earth happened sixty years ago on, February 3, 1954
and ended on January 23, 1955. If you were born during that time you carry this
speedy fertile dependable hardworking Wood Horse energy.
Though most people consider the Chinese Animals only an
astrological path, it is also numerological.
What I find fascinating is how this year’s Chinese Calendar
Wood Horse aligns with our 2014 frequency of Seven. The Horse is the Seventh
Animal in the Chinese Calendar and like the Seven Archetype in Western Culture,
it brings change, and for most people willing to take a risk, it promises
success.
To understand the energy of the Horse, look at its
contribution to society. The horse made it possible to cross continents,
transport armies, and build cities. The horse has always been a hard worker,
pulling carriages, carts and timber for construction. Before the car became
popular the horse also pulled the water pumps to put out fires. They were the
original fire engines.
At the same time, horses are social beings loving to be part
of a herd. They will at times have to fight to protect the herd and may fight
to the death if necessary. Once their trust is earned, they are loyal,
dependable companions.
All the characteristics of the horse are part of the makeup
of both those born in the year of the horse and are the frequencies, which
activate in 2014. If these characteristics are not part of your makeup, then
you may experience them as challenging. If they are part of you, then you may
be tested with over-working, over-loyalty, or traveling too far in some
venture.
As you see, the Seventh Chinese Animal, The Horse and the
Seven Archetype have much in common.
However as the ancient Chinese Taoists observed the world,
they determined that there was more to each animal then trait frequencies. In
their view the basis of all Creation, is made up of Five Elements, and as the
Twelve Chinese Animals activated each year they also cycled through them.
In the West we consider four elements, which are fire,
earth, air and water. But the Taoists of China perceived five elements; fire,
earth, metal (which is like air), water and wood. They then applied these
elements to the twelve animals and this combination adds greater depth to each
year’s frequency. (To find your Animal Sign & Element, scroll to the bottom of this blog.)
Thus in 2014, we will not only experience the frequency of
the Horse and the Seven Archetype, but these energies must come through the
element of Wood (growth, flexible strength, security) the green fertile energy
that feeds fires (ideas, breakthroughs, new directions, new understandings.)
The Wood Horse will bring change throughout the world. It
will give people the courage to take a risk on new ideas and bring
breakthroughs that will create a more fertile, strong secure world.
The key for every person when they meet a bump in the road
during the year of the Green Horse, is to move, travel, change. This means,
move your body, exercise, take a walk, go for a drive, take a chance and go to
that party and meet new people. Whatever has been holding you back will be
resolved through movement this year. For some it may be long distance travel
but for most, it just means getting out of your rut and making some simple
changes. Remember this, when you get stuck use the Wood Horse energy and you
will get what you need to make change in the easiest way for you.
Here is a glimpse of how each animal sign will be activated
by the Wood Horse.
Rat
Rat’s attraction to Horse people this year, whether in love
or business is best avoid, it will cause you harm. Clever Rat is monetarily
fine if they avoid letting the Horse energy caused them to take big risks. This
could lead to bad debts. In this high-energy year Rats need to get more rest or
they may suffer from health issues.
Ox
This a karmic relationship year for Ox, but they will be
lucky with money. The Ox must watch their intake of food, thought and word as
taking in too much without releasing will cause them problems in many areas
from health to money.
Tiger
This year is Tiger’s wish come true, they will have good
fortune in most areas, especially money and career. To assure success Tiger must avoid being reckless, investing
(especially with Monkey people) before doing the research. This year
good-natured Tigers can easily be swindled or robbed. Otherwise, keep working
efficiently and this year will one of great rewards.
Rabbit
Rabbits need to rest more this year, avoid flirting with
risky or unknown people or investments. This year is not marked with luck for
you, so be more cautious. However, Rabbit, you will still experience good fortune
and support from friends and family.
Dragon
Dragon also needs to take a time out this year as it is too
risky for them. They may be inclined to throw their hat into the ring but it
will be lost. However in Rooster energy can add protection. If you are inclined
to invest, make sure Rooster is with you. You can also re-activate success with
Phoenix energy. This can be done with a picture of a Phoenix or mentally
calling on this energy when you must risk anything.
Snake
Snake, like Tiger, will have a golden year. But there is a
risk of losing everything if Snake allows his envy or love of intrigue to take
control of his better senses. Flattery, it is said will take any snake down. So
be wise and you will have a fabulous year. Rooster protects you.
Horse
For those
born in the year of the Green Horse (1954 or the Water Horse (2002) they will
have luck, but for those born in year of the Metal (’90), Fire (’66) or Earth
(’78) Horse, you need to be more careful with love and money. Avoid investing
with fellow Horses or Rats. If you already are partnered with another Horse, in
business or love, the Feng Shui cure is to get a Horse figurine because it is
said that triple signs act like jackpots, and this creates luck for you.
Sheep/Ram
The year of the Horse is very lucky for Sheep. Though it is
not good to invest with another Sheep, as it neutralizes your luck; best to
work with Horses or Roosters, both are very good for you. The Rooster will
protect you and is like adding a lucky charm for you. Avoid doing business with
the Ox.
Monkey
This is not a good year for Fire (’56), Earth (’68) or Metal
(’80) Monkeys, though they normally have good experiences with Horses. But Wood
or Water Monkeys will have a good year. But you must be more cautious in
business this year or the risky energy will cause you loss.
Rooster
Rooster will have a very good year. They continue to move
up. But this year, be careful of Rabbit because their ideas or their actions
can change your fortune for the worse.
Dog
Dogs must contain themselves this year. Avoid showing off,
becoming greedy or egotistical, these things are your nemesis this year and can
cause financial ruin and even sexual scandals. Partnering with a Tiger will
bring you protection.
Pig
Pig has been on a downward swing for three years and this
year moves up. The Horse brings Pig delight in every area of life and it begins
a lucky move, which will peak in the future. For love or investments, the Tiger
is good for Pig. Avoid investing with Snakes or other Pigs. All this good
fortune may cause indulgence, avoid over-eating to protect your health.
February 2014 & It’s Frequencies
February is: F (6) + e (5) + b (2) + + r (9) + u (3) + a (1)
+ r (9) + y (7) = 42 = 6
2014: 2 + 0 + 1 + 4 = 7
Total: 6 + 7 = 13 = 4
February’s frequency is Six, making this a month when we
will experience more choices, networking, socializing, love and issues of
commitments. Interesting that this also the month of Valentine’s day, a day
when more people in the US make a commitment to love one another in marriage.
Consider what you are choosing this month. Make a conscious effort to choose
from your heart not from fear or external pressure. To make the most of February’s frequency, it will benefit you to
take a stand for whatever or whomever you love.
When we add 2014’s Seven to the frequency we find a positive
transformation (13) will be the result of taking control of our own choices.
The power of the Four coming through a Thirteen means you can begin to build
your castle this month by cutting away the old habits that no longer serve you
and reaping the new awareness of what you truly want to spend your life doing
now. The foundation of your future is rolled in this month’s energy, it is up
to you to use it and activate your someday dreams into present day realities.
