This Year of the Dragon — now concluding — Very amazing!
This Year of the Snake — now commencing — Very Amazing!
Last year, Dragon — the Serpent of Heaven or Cosmos. This year, Snake — Serpent of Earth or Ground.
Heaven is open, vast and undefined – it is ideal, philosophical, mysterious. 2012 was a Dragon period — time for introspection, dreaming, planning, innovating, inventing and coming under the influence of inspired creativity.

Earth is solid, measurable and known — it is practical, detailed, definite – 2013 is a Snake period — time for the application of insights and planning, manifestation of ideals and the practical process of giving specific substance to the inspecific dreams, insights and innovations of the Dragon period.

So, it could be said that whatever any one or any group nourished with psychic and emotional energy last year, would now have the potential in this year to transform into the solid, real, practical and applied — the manifestation!

The Snake offers the opportunity, the influence, the environment, the atmosphere to make the possible into the actual! WOW!!!
What is possible? The snake is classic across all ancient cultures as being associated with the natural internal vitality that heals disease, prevents disease and is the underlying energy of creativity and productivity.

What is required? This is interesting: clarity and focus. In other words, you will need to be specific. Snake energy, to become clear, digests huge objects of nourishment and then shed their skin.

To derive the optimum from the Snake Year, you will need to be alert and focused. You will need to digest the immensity of your personal ideal and transform nearly completely by releasing your former self and purposefully taking on the essence of your true nature, in accord with your deep spiritual destiny.

In addition the Snake is intent and patient — intensely patient.
Is any of this within your control? Probably not much! The true nature of nature, all nature, your nature, the nature of what appears to be real — all is impossible to know ultimately.

The conclusion of Dragon and commencement of Snake is all well known to the ancient wizards, the great spiritual luminaries and the most contemporary physicists as The Mystery. Even as science gets to the essence of nature, it appears that what we thought was actual is really energetic resonances.

So, how do we, in this annual journey around our sun, find the secret of evoking the power of the Snake? The same as every year. We cultivate a balance between cosmic wonder and grounded actualization –the Dragon and the Snake. We cultivate a tolerance for what is actually happening, a patience with our sense of possibility. We digest the immensity of our own destiny. We cast off that which we are now aware is not really necessarily true to our self.
So…….what then is unique about the Year of the Snake. The wizards would say that natural potential inherent in the universe – the big universe that seems to be out there, the macroverse and the small universe that seems to be within, the micro verse — will show itself in ways that are very common and usual and in ways that are unique and intriguing. That the Heaven Dragon and Earth Snake within each of us can subtly link with the inherent urge of ultimate nature –whatever that may be — to create and express! AND EVEN, create and express through us and for us. Happy Actualizations!
