Lunar Month: WATER GOAT 6
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.
Water Goat Month
"Water Goats are talkative, sentimental and persevering characters. Their emotional attachments to people and things cloud their wisdom. Their consideration of others undermines their success. Egalitarian idealists they work very hard ‘against all odds.’ Their generosity is unfailing. Rarely thanked for their work they nevertheless are strong helpers. They are often robbed or make poor judgements in financial matters and their fortune does not smooth out until old age (60+). Though rarely ill their illness tends to be complex and hard to diagnose and/or treat."
LM Notes
Qi Node: 10 Little HeatIn Slight or Small Heat qi node Yang begins its inevitable decline but growth is extended. The weather turns mild. Fruits and vegetables are abundant. Cicadas and crickets choruses are heard day and night. Twilight is beautiful. Barns bulge with the abundance. The Prince ascends the throne (yang matures) and becomes King. What will Yang's legacy be? Is it survival at any cost (brutishness) or the fullness of true and elegant majesty (wisdom)?
Lunar Hexagram 33 Dun: Pig
"Dun tells us that limitations and seclusion are not necessarily bad. It shows how restrictions can be made into opportunities. Dun is the story of a successful 'come-back'. Through modesty (not pretending) and simply nourishing yourself even imprisonment can be made a basis of success. It also reminds us that limited circumstances (small) can often be a fertile ground for success."

FRIDAY July 17, Wood Horse 2
21 Shihe: Biting - The Oxboy, Shut -
"What is it like to float down the river with no boat, no river and no protagonist? It is ideal day for retreat, meditation and severing ties with everything – don’t worry, it is not the end of anything! Let go anyway – feel the freedom, inaction, disconnectedness, because it offers limitless insight. Focus on your golf swing and forget about how the kids are squandering their inheritance on cocaine. It’s that kind of day! The river has reached the sea and even the water is confused." LM Notes/Solar
Stay home and work on your most relaxing project. It's auspicious to cancel, even to sever ties today. Medical treatments, let alone contract signing of any sort, will most likely complicate issues and leave scars. Recover, guard your resources, retreat, initiate austerity and economize - basically for this whole weekend; Start to recognize the The Oxboy, The Maiden and Void lunar pattern as such.
SATURDAY July 18, Wood Goat 3
17 Sui: Pursuit - The Maiden
Consult the Oracle today and follow the advice. Spend time in a place that makes you thrive and push the edges of nothing. Enjoy the unproductive parts of your life, meditate and recall your alliances. Contemplate rather than dig. Ceremonial completions, family gatherings and honoring the ancestors are beneficial.
SUNDAY July 19, Fire Monkey 4
25 Wu Wang: No Expectations - The Void, Divide -
Today is like the snake who slowly sheds its skin, the butterfly who begins to realize that it may emerge from the cocoon and like the first light of day when the colors are not yet awake. Self reflect, educate, rest and simplify. Consult with elders and cozy up with the family. Extramarital affairs bring ruin on a day like today, so tame thyself.
MONDAY July 20, Fire Rooster 5
36 Mingyi: Phesant Call - The Roof, Swallow -
Have integrity today, without holding expectations. Firm up plans today, the time is right for the final polish. "The qi is forming patterns and remaining in the channels. Practice and disciplined cultivation bring confidence." LM Notes:Solar "It is auspicious to stay home, repair walls (security), remodel, takie tonics and comply with superiors. It is favorable for medical treatments, exercise and eating well. Contraindicated activity: This day is inauspicious for travel because you will be robbed (road) or drowned (sea)." LM Notes: Lunar
I am because we are. May we, together, practice honest self-reflection and open to our collective potential.21 Shihe: Biting - The Oxboy, Shut -
