As I write this on the 5th of July here in Australia my friends from the USA and Europe are still celebrating the 4th of July and acknowledging the indigenous folks of the world.

We are gearing up to change over to the month of the sheep and the welcome relief from the speed and galloping energy of the horse. We can now reign it in and slow down.

Today is a yang fire dragon day. The dragon in the Chinese pantheon does NOT breath fire unlike the dragons from other cultures. If you want to learn more about the dragon then go to the webinar Golden_Dragon_pres_april.mp3 and hear about the characteristics of the dragon.

The dragon clashes with the dog and the dog forms the final part of the fire frame at 1900 hrs tonight. In terms of clashes obviously the daily clash is less problematic unless it clashes with something important in your chart for example your day master or your house of spouse.

The yang fire of the day clashes with the yang water of the month and this is much less favourable. As it is in the visible world it is something to pay attention to. When fire and water clash we have steam. As it is Monday in my part of the world it is quite possible that the workplace will be full of grumpy people - so watch what comes from your lips and the lips of others today.

All the elements are present in the cycle with the emperor of the day yang fire very well supported, strong and, having the support of his mates the tiger and the dog is stronger than the water clash. It still means energy will be expended to counter the water's power.

Your challenge today is to find your inner sun - your inner sparkle. Despite what might be going on around you - polish it up and sit for a while reflecting in your qualities. Now remember to also turn around so you radiate your light on to all those around you. Compassion is a wonderful thing and lights the life of others.
