Happy lunar new year, and welcome to the year of the Wood Dragon! Sounds flammable. I’m sure the world stage will resemble a house on fire, but what’s happening to us as individuals is quite magical. If you have spent much time with dragons you know they are truly empowered beings. Being a year of wood, this empowering energy will penetrate all the way down to our physical. Exciting stuff!

For those trying to hold their emotions still so they won’t dump fuel on the fire of a burning old paradigm, I appreciate your intentions, but the sooner you reframe anger the better. While fear is paralyzing, anger is motivating. Moving from fear to anger is a huge step forward, because now you will actually make a change. Plus, anger isn’t the issue, it’s throwing your anger at others that’s the issue. If we use our anger to make changes in our life, it has helped us.

Dragons never get angry; they already embody empowerment. Humans now have this same embodied power potential. For those that have been doing inner work for years this time feels very liberating and exciting, as they have been clearing space for this personal power. For those just starting on this path it will be a steep learning curve.

On the practical side, I have found life works best when I combine being and doing. I need to stay fluid and just let life happen. On the inside it’s a different matter entirely. It seems my primary responsibility is keeping my vibration high via my thoughts. Each time I find myself dwelling on a negative story I immediately jump into a mantra. I like ‘I Am Divine’ by Hari Bhjan Kaur, but find something that speaks to you. If I dwell on the negative too long, or don’t even notice my mind is off on its own, reality dramatically shifts to match my thoughts. Thus the learning curve for the year.

This is just training for us to be all that we can be. Humans are built to create reality, and the current world is a result of our fragmented and fearful focus. No, I’m not at all saying you can never have a fearful or negative thought, just be aware of what you dwell on. If a situation upsets you that’s fine, but learn to let it go. If the same situation repeats itself, maybe look into why. Is it about acceptance? Is it about communication? Is it about leaving a toxic relationship? Figure yourself out, and take action.

Without a body creation starts with an energy template, which requires a focused thought, an open heart, and something we would call sound. Doing this from within a body uses thought, heart, sound, and a calm and healthy body. The body is returning to its divine state due to the current energy, but the mind is up to us to train. We get to choose which thoughts we dwell on. Patricia Cota-Robles has a very informative vlog (2024 #5) on the physical upgrades in action.

Support your body, mind your mind, and the heart opens naturally. May empowerment be with you!
