Chinese Almanac Astrology June 6 - 8, 2015

Hello Fellow Herdspeople,

Year: Wood Goat 4713

Lunar Month: Metal Snake 4
Lunar Hexagram 8 Bi: Alliance
Qi Node: 8 Grain Buds

A time of unification and action. It's about how our inter-connectedness is all powerful, how our individual and collective responses dictate the return in autumn. "Trusted alliances with like-minded people enlarge one's influence and power naturally without swelling one's responsibilities." LM Zhouyi

Eat two modest meals a day and lightly exercise at lunch. Breakfast is very important and sleeping in until 7am is OK. Bucket bathe before going to sleep, go to sleep early. "Planning is over - fulfill promises. Be active, not 'aggressive'." LM Notes

The Wood Goat, a little girl kid, lends a soft grounded context for us this year; Still very new, maturing quickly and playfully, sincere and disciplined. Herd up, slough off what no longer serves your appetite, compost and go fresh.

SATURDAY June 6, Water Ox 20
23 Bo: Erosion - The Willow -
Another day to pull back. Even funerals are inappropriate today. "Bad timing or inappropriate (selfish) motive has undermined many attempts to restructure the powers that be." LM Zhouyi Spend some time alone and go to sleep early.

SUNDAY June 7, Wood Tiger 21
8 Bi: Alliance - The Bird Star -
Today offers success to united and committed associations. Especially successful in building and construction. Inauspicious for family affairs like burials and marriages. Use caution when traveling today; mind your belongings and tend or replace worn out garments and clothing.

MONDAY June 8, Wood Hare 22
20 Guan: Observance, - The Bow -
Practice permaculture today, step back to gain perspective, take stock, recognize the influences of your environment and celebrate accomplishments. Gift giving, making and offering food, generosity, cultural & religious performance, self-cultivation, study and education are all auspicious today. Contra-indications are contracts of any kind and pressing forward.

May we, together, practice honest self-reflection and open to our collective potential.
