Chinese New Year!

Monday January 23, 2012  begins The Year of The WATER Dragon according to Chinese astrology. Since It's pouring rain outside my window as I write this, I'm hoping Mother Nature is just celebrating the day and not giving us a taste of what she has in store for the next twelve months - otherwise, if you are in a flood zone this is the year to buy insurance!
 
Unlike western astrology which divides the calendar into monthly signs, Chinese astrology assigns one of twelve animals to each year. This year is associated with the Chinese mythical Dragon, a spiritual creature known for his joy, compassion and perseverance. The Dragon is considered to be the most fortunate of all the animals so many believers make a point of getting married and having children during a Dragon year. Indeed, if you or a friend is expecting a child in 2012 get ready to welcome a colorful, confident passionate soul into your life!
 
My personal insight on this Water-Dragon year concerns the upcoming presidential election. Obama's western astrological chart did not show his 2008 victory except in hindsight (Hilary actually had the stronger chart that year), but if you looked at the Chinese astrology it was obvious he would be the winner. The same is true for the up-coming election. Obama again appears to be at a disadvantage according to the various planets but when you consider the Chinese elements he is supported by The Power Dragon - thus I'm calling the election for Obama. You heard it here first!
 
Last week I promised I'd share some thoughts about the rumors and speculation swirling around the Mayan Calendar and the so-called End of The World prediction for December 21, 2012. When this idea hit mainstream awareness ten years or so ago the thought was that because the Mayan Calendar did  not list dates beyond 2012 this must be some sort of evidence the ancient civilization believed this was when the world would end.
That idea certainly captured our attention for a time but as clarification surfaced as to how their calendar works and why this date was selected most 2012 enthusiasts have reinterpreted the warning to mean not the end of time, but the end of an era. So now the question is, what is the era that is ending and is there anything we can do to prepare for the new one about to begin?
 
The era that is ending is the Age of Ignorance. We can no longer deny we are indeed all one. It's not just a pretty saying, we KNOW what effects the butterfly in South America impacts the polar bear in Alaska. The era that is before us is the Age of Community. Those who continue to live selfishly will find themselves becoming isolated to the point they will be unable to survive. Those who make choices based on what is best for the group will see themselves strengthened and prospered. Furthermore - as this is the year of The Water Dragon, a time when things happen very quickly - the awareness that this is how it's going to be is coming upon us rapidly. So while Dec.21 does have somethings going on astrologically that make it a significant date, there is no need to wait until the end of the year to start living in The Age of Aquarius. Anything you can do right now to energize the part of you that wants to live a more community-conscious life will be blessed and rewarded. So join the fun - vow to be a compassionate Dragon today!
