Energy of the year There are very specific energies of 2011, the year of the Yin Metal Rabbit. The short version of what is Chinese New Year is that it is the second new moon after the winter solstice. The up side is this year’s energy will feel quiet and calm, to our great relief after the turbulent year of the Tiger. All of us can use a year of taking it easy and enjoying a slower pace. For some of us the first few months will be time for recovery and regrouping after meeting all the challenges of the previous year. This year we will see stronger international relationships with more diplomacy and decorum. The flow will be smooth and low in energy and money will flow in without too much effort. Our life style can be relaxed and leisurely if we allow ourselves the luxuries we have put off getting. If we allow it in, it will be possible for us to be carefree and happy without too much effort or too many annoyances. This is the year to take very good care of ourselves. The slower energy will allow us to use this year to gather energy for the following busy and strong years to come. We can take on the traits of the rabbit. They are accepting, loving, calm, and nurturing. When life gets erratic, we can calm our selves by saying “I am the Rabbit” LOL This is the year for persuasion rather than force. The complacent energy this year is ideal for refinement, developing good habits and applying good taste. The rabbit acts with discretion and make reasonable concessions without compromising. The influence of the Rabbit may affect those of us who like comfort so we will want to be aware of good balance and purpose. It will be important this year to keep our focus on completing projects and guard against becoming too complacent and resistance to change. The down side is the energy may seem too calm for some of us, particularly to the Tiger, Dragon and the horse energy. Rules and regulations may be lax and may not be rigidly enforced so we will want to regulate ourselves and stay with-in our integrity zone. It is important to stay relaxed and stress free if others are inclined to be lax at work or home. We may want to put off disagreeable tasks as long as possible. It will be important to set and keep our affairs in order to prevent difficulties in the next year. Your sign in the year of the rabbit Do you know what your Chinese astrological sign is?
