Your Weekly Reading
Year of the Dragon
This year proceeds at a pace. There are great changes and chances ahead. Be ready for some big decisions or choices about your future. Everything is about change this year - usually progressive and positive - and maybe some 'soul searching'. This is the year to make things happen and take the opportunities that will be offered. Adapt, accept, and "Go with the Flow" of the Dragon Energy which will take you to an achievement, or recognition, of your intentions. This is the year when it will all happen ! This Year of the Dragon is deterministic YANG energy combined with the power of the ambitious trigram of movement, and growth in the Element of WOOD.
Your Weekly Reading
based on the Universal Flow of the Energy of TAO.
Monday 4 November 2024
Your disapproval means concentrated, but ultimately wasted, energy. Get yourself right, whatever is wrong in the world. Take it easy this week and make yourself comfortable or interested with what you have, and mind your own business only. Think in terms of what you want, rather than what you want removed or changed. The world will carry on, as it does, without your opinion.
Monday 28 October 2024
This week, a chance to evaluate your position and prioroties. Any doubts, delays, or interuptions, tell you soething, or give you time to pause. Look at what you've got, not what you have lost (that requires an acceptance and restart), or could have had (those plans are not for you). Less reaction and more appreciation of you and your situation will lead to some surprises. Some call this a 'slow week', but it's more than that.
Monday 21 October 2024
The question is, "Do you really want more of the same, or something different ?" This week, look at what you've got around you. You can improve it, or change it, but you can't control 'the effect'. You'll go further by not going very far at all. The world will come to you.
Monday 14 October 2024
This week there will be opportunities and invites, but the decision is yours'. It's time for a change, but doubt, hesitation, or procastination, can stop or delay your progress. The job of doubt is not to reconsider the facts, but to stop all movement. This is about your interest and enjoyment not effort, rewards, or risks. This week go for what you want to do, with confidence. When you move, the world moves.
Monday 7 October 2024
Sometimes, you should not attempt difficult tasks. This seems to be one of those weeks (or a little longer). Reassess your situation, change your plans, or step back for a while. You could change a little piece at a time, and it doesn't matter what piece you start with. Start at the easiest point and improve what you can. This is a temporary phase and you only have to get through it as best you can.
DISCLAIMER
Of course, one Reading cannot possibly apply to everyone this week. Well, actually it will !, but some of you will be one week ahead (it's already happened, or one week behind - wait till next week), even so, the energy is shifting things and people and it will happen. Each person will convert this energy into their own outlook or circumstances, or, indeed, may not be totally aware of the situation. If you are aware of the weekly shift of energy, whether you believe it to be true or not, it will change your life. As to the timing of the precise week, which the ancient Chinese calculated two thousand years ago, this is part of a massive cycle that predicts the emergence of an awareness of TAO.
What this is, and how it affects you - see "TAO I CHING ~ The Mystic Gateway" which will give you the means to have a personal Reading whenever you want, every day, or every hour if you want, or perhaps a longer look at your prospects.
You might wonder what Taoists do all day ? Well, whatever it is, they do spend 5 minutes a week (or perhaps more) just sitting with no thoughts, plans, or oppinions, and "just being" quietly. This re-charges the batteries. The Weekly Reading (maybe at the same time every week) is a chance to disconnect from 'the world' and simply connect to the Flow of TAO. So, what are you doing right now? These Human Batteries only take 2 - 5 minutes to recharge. TAO does the rest.
