2012: The Year of the Dragon
The word ‘dragon’ is derived from two Greek words: one meaning ‘serpent’ and the other ‘to see clearly.’ The energies of the dragon carry forth courage, strength, wisdom and the ability to see the big picture. In Chinese astrology, one of the more pronounced qualities of the dragon is non-conformism-the straying away from rules. As we enter, dare are I say, the most remarkable year in our human evolution, where we cross the threshold of ‘primarily negative’ into ‘slightly more positive’ in our planetary energetic, the Dragon seems to be a most appropriate symbol to carry us through 2012.
2012 Intentions
How you experience this upcoming year will be entirely up to you and the intentions you set forth for yourself. Where you put your energy in focus and action is exactly what you will experience and draw to you. Below is a guideline for setting intentions:
- Focus on what you want more of, rather than what you don’t want.
- Use the answers to the questions above to help you with direction about what you want more of
- Detach from the outcome of what you are intending
- Leave the ‘how’ to your Higher Self
- Trust that what you are intending for will be brought to you in the easiest way and for your highest good.
- Clear any limiting beliefs to receiving what you’re asking for. Most common culprits in this sphere include beliefs that start with ‘I’m unworthy of,’ ‘I don’t deserve’ and ‘I’m not good enough.’
To an amazing transformational year ahead!
with lots of love,
