Chinese New Year - Monkey Magic is Back

Monkey Magic

Hi Everyone,

Welcome New Year of the Fire Monkey!

February 8th, the second New Moon after the solstice 2016 marked Chinese New Year of the Fire Monkey and oh boy, what a chang-a-roony.  

This is the year of the Cheeky Monkey. A blockbuster shift, moving from two years of Wood element (Green Horse and Green Sheep) to Red Fire Monkey.

Contemplative becomes assertive.

Reflective become proactive.

Stuck becomes rocket launching, fire works and who cares about the slippery slope!

Monkey years have an abundance of energy, enthusiasm and spark. In FIRE, all the MORE dynamic.

This sign shares some of the intellectual and quick-silver qualities of western astrology's sign of Virgo including a love of friends, witty dialog and analytical capabilities. It's mutable, and again, with added fire, think Sagittarius enthusiasm.

Monkeys years are about lofty challenges and high sighted goals--we actually thrive when they have something way out there to reach for. With a hefty dose of curiosity, Monkey years bring a deal of information so we can turn what we learn into wonderful stories we can share with others. 

Our monkey year is all about communicate--be it through phone, internet or face to face. The main thing is we all feel connected. Social, sensitive and full of life, Monkey years can turn trouble into fun, gloom into a sunny day, low returns and results into high octane YES.

Happy New Moon and Chinese New Year of the Monkey! Set sky high intentions! Let us know how it's all going in the comments!
