In this emerging year of the Wood Dragon I’m feeling some massive shifts taking place.. ✨🐉✨
These past few years I’ve felt and faced some unprecedented challenges (you too?! Go figure…) Returning from many years abroad, full of traveling and learning and adventures, I recognized that it was time to root deeper into my lands of origin after so much flying about. Having gathered a basic level of Mastery in my practice of Shentara I was excited to share it here on the West Coast and ground deeper into livelihood and prosperity while helping lots of people.
For the first time in my life I considered the pursuit of “success” and recognized a deep desire to succeed.. as this was the first time I held such a potent practice of medicine and teaching here in my native country. I saw the relationship between sharing my greatest gifts with the world and making money had come together at last, and I was EXCITED to BRING IT.
Yes, I thought.. I will stay here in California until I have fulfilled this task.. sharing this medicine with many, building a practice and a solid foundation of prosperity through my passion and purpose! Then I can fly back out into the world with deeper roots and expanded wings!
Then, within a couple months, came the pandemic.
Needless to say, it’s often been challenging. The past few years of “Water” element in the Daoist zodiac, both Tiger and Rabbit, have been a time of facing some of my deepest fears and insecurities. The world went batsh*t crazy there for a few years, and while some things have gone somewhat “back to normal”, overall things still seem crazier than ever. A lingering feeling of futility and frustration at a fleeting sense of success seeming just around the corner, yet never quite arriving, has built up in my system. Something needs to change, I’ve been certain…
Enter the Dragon.
There feels to be a tangible shift in the air, in the energy and in my Heart. The expansive, empowering energy of the Yang Wood Dragon feels real, rising and resplendent. I’ve been feeling it coming for months, and now that it’s here I literally feel different. Can you feel it too?
This is a year to dream big, to allow visions and plans which may have been swirling about for months or years to surface. After some powerful initiations last year and a lot of work honing in on a very big-picture project, the pieces are finally coming together. I can feel the support and community coming together, and this feels like a year where amazing things are going to happen. The threads and hyphae of consciousness and collective intentions for the more beautiful world we know is possible have woven themselves beneath the surface, seemingly out of sight.. yet the mushrooms of awakening hearts, positive change and new systems are ready to burst forth from the earth with unstoppable grace.
I’m feeling my wings spread wider, in communion with communities of great beauty. I’m feeling my roots grow deeper as I move into a new house in March with my sweetheart, creating a sacred sanctuary altar of Home and a living portal of creative expansion, cozy communion and empowered manifestation (and lots of music!).
Looking forward to lots of magic and wonder this next year, and a deeper resiliency in facing Life’s challenges, both personal and collective, with greater Grace and Trust. Also looking forward to more traveling and adventure.. spreading the wings wider and flying about a bit.. like a good dragon should. ✨🐉✨
Honored to be on this Journey with you all. Let’s make this a year of abundance and true prosperity rippling through our communities and our greater human family. Let’s let our wings unfurl and rise into more of the enormous potential that we each hold in our beings, allowing the guiding forces of wisdom, innocence and joy to carry us through these times of uncertainty and unprecedented change.
What are YOU looking forward to this year??
