Chinese Astrological Forecast for the Year of Monkey (2016)

After the past three years (snake, horse, and sheep) with much chaos and shifts, the monkey king is coming to smooth out the difficulties and bring much blessings. So overall, the year of monkey will be a wonderful, happy year!

How each the different signs will fare this year:

The Rat: This year is a fun and playful year; there is enough savings to enjoy. The Rat's word for this year is “harmony.”

The Ox: This year is a “turning around” year for the Ox. There will be many opportunities at work, while receiving good rewards and good results in relationships. The Ox's word for this year is “commit.”

The Tiger: This year is a big shift for the Tiger, with the dissolving of many old problems and the bringing of satisfaction from hard work. The Tiger's word for this year is “bravery.”

The Rabbit: This is a year of steady growth for work, but big progress in relationships. The Rabbit's word for this year is “safety.”

The Dragon: The Dragon has good timing, good location, and good relationships: This year will be a big growth year, which is about effort and giving, but all will be worthwhile. The single Dragon might have only short term intimate relationships. The word for the Dragon is “soaring.”

The Snake: This year is fun for the Snake, for they will get into beatification and enjoy more social life, with steady income and slow progress at work. But be careful about attractions from the opposite sex. The word for the Snake this year is “behave:)”

The Horse: This year for the Horse is to “let it be” without high expectations, a time to try something new. The word of this year for the Horse is “enjoy.”

The Sheep: This is an excellent year for the sheep after all the hard work last year, for great progress will be made at work and with relationships. The word of this year for the sheep is “miracle.”

The Monkey: Moving into the year of monkey, the Monkey will find it a tiring year with much responsibilities, so the monkey can choose to travel and learn new things. There will be many big changes for monkey, so the Monkey's word for this year is “retreat.”

The Rooster: Hold onto what you have and learn to be more patient, for the Rooster can have unexpected income. The Rooster's word for this year is “peace.”

The Dog: This year will mean more of a reliance on oneself rather than on others. The Dog will be more suitable at something low-key as one keeps studying new knowledge. The word is “await.”

The Pig: This year will be a smooth one for the Pig. With lots of support, the Pig can have big plans and realize great achievements. The word for the Pig this year is “steadfast.”

Wish you a healthy, happy, and prosperous year!

A Prayer for the Chinese New Year

 

A new year is coming to the world again,
All things change from old to new.

At the beginning of the year of Monkey,

I wish for:
Harmony in families,
Happiness in life and conscious acts to help others;
Stability in emotions and dignity in character;
Fulfillment at work and health in body and mind;
Improvement in cultivation and increase in wisdom;
Joy throughout the universe and peace on earth.

I pray for strength,
Allow us to progress on the way to enlightenment.

The new energy infuses the new year;
Allow us to start everything anew.
A new spirit infuses the new year;
Allow us to start everything anew.
 

Taoist Light Wellness Wish all A Happy New Year!

Sunday Enchanced Practice

It was on October 4th, 2015. We had a nice down-pour in Santa Barbara. The earth, plants, and people were all so nurtured and nourished by the crystal rain drops after years of severe drought.

The classroom has also just undergone a make-over: a new Chinese palace lantern represents illumination; a gold Kari fish screen represents longevity and free-flowing energy. Fresh new paint of soft gold has lightened up the whole room and makes it feel like much more expanded. Lao Tzu (a picture of his statue from the Lou Guan Taoist Temple which was handed to me by my teacher, Master Zhou Shi Tai) who is one of the greatest philosopher and the founder of Taoism was looking upon us.

There were only seven people who showed up and gathered for Taoist Light Qigong Level I enhanced group practice. This October was a difficult month for many people, there were so much transformations that happened and a fresh, new start awaits.

We arrived at 2 pm as usual, and the group practice was exceptional. We went so deep into a peaceful healing state, time felt like it had stopped. After we put a closure to the five sections, it felt like we had multiplied the practice ten times and awakened from many lifetimes.

I wondered often how Taoist Light Qigong can help people more , and how the new space would work for who walks in with sincere heart ... We have found on that day with deep gratitude, the result of the group practice really shows the tranquil, bright light space has served us so well and a new Taoist Light Wellness center is anchored.

P.S. If you have studied Taoist Light Qigong Level I, you are invited to come for the Sunday group practice again and again. The next gathering is on November 1st from 2-3:30 pm.
