Year of the Wood Rooster
February 9, 2005
|
The year of the Yin(-) Rooster teaches the lessons of order, scrutiny and strategic planning. The sage advice of Sun-Zi which is still taught in modern military circles, advises one to "achieve psychological advantage over the adversary and use force only as a last resort."
Rooster years straighten-up and put life back into order, including re-building, reconstructing and beginning from scratch... A year when it is especially important to exercise tolerance, channel inner energies into creativity and release our souls of any resentments or bitterness. |
