How to avoid sudden and reckless decisions and actions?
Whole Europe was shocked by the decision, when David Cameron announced the Brexit. The former prime minister announced the British people made the most democratic vote ever in history. After this decision was made, thousands of people demonstrated in London, that they changed their minds about Brexit. This hot-headed mentality is not accidental in the year of the Fire Monkey! Let’s look at the reasons.
According to the traditional Chinese calendar, the Monkey month is between 7th August and 7th September and this year it has Yang Fire.
What does the Monkey energy means?
The energy of the Monkey is characterized by speed, constant mobility and hyperactivity. Have you heard of Monkey business? Changing all the time?
This year of the Fire Monkey bring us the Fire Monkey month in the lunar calendar as well so the fiery energy affects all of us with double power. The Fire symbolizes the spirituality, which is positive, but the fast-moving energy as well the Monkey. Therefore the danger is to experience reckless and very quick decisions or emotions in human relationships as well as in politics.
Revolutions
These characteristics can also be seen historically in the years of Fire Monkey.
4th July 1776, the USA declares the independence from the King of England as a result of a victorious revolution.
60 years ago, 1956 was also a Fire Monkey year, when the Hungarian revolution against the Russian occupation broke out in Budapest in October.
Sudden changes in human relationships
Fire Yang which represents also joy, passion, but it can mean vehemence, impulsiveness. In Western astrology the planet ruling this year is Mars planet of warfare in ancient Roman mythology.
So it is not surprising that intense emotions and sudden changes in human relations can happen. For example, Ozzy Osbourne (British singer) and Sharon Osbourne (British television host) announced in May that they will divorce after 33 years of marriage.
The first Brexit
Extraordinary changes can be observed in international relations and in politics also as the already mentioned Brexit. In history, there are more examples for religious wars.
1536 is a perfect example for the first Brexit also a Fire Monkey year.
VIII. Henry broke with the Pope, the Catholic Church and founded the Anglican Church. This was the first Brexit.
Burning Samurai sword in the presidential election
Metal symbolizes honesty, nobility and righteousness. If this is connected to the Fire then it can symbolize a Samurai sword, which is dipped into the fire. It can cut things that do not serve higher ideals. Currently the US presidential election, where there is a high voltage debate and struggle between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump gives us a good example for that.
Calming down with yoga and meditation
External struggle in our individual world may appear to be difficult. Inspires us to pay more attention and be more responsible before we take action and actions. My advice is to find harmony in the chaos with yoga and meditation.
Those are especially affected whose horoscopes have the element of the Tiger and the Monkey and the sign of the Metal or Fire.
Those who were born in the year of the Tiger must be very careful about their decisions!
