Today is the 18th of June. It is a yang wood dragon day. The dragon is earth. Wood breaks up earth. The earth is therefore in control of heaven - not so auspicious.

The chart looks like this:

• year: yin metal rabbit (wood)
• month: yang wood horse (fire)
• day: yang wood dragon (earth)

The emperor is yang wood, he has a rival sitting right on his shoulder and he has part of the season of wood sitting below. He is strong but so is his rival.

The weakest energy today is yang water which governs the urinary bladder meridian and the emotional states of fear and anxiety. When fear and low levels of anxiety are your constant companions you deplete your energy and less and less is available for daily living. Sometimes the fears are buried deep down in the unconscious and the only thing you can see is the anxiety. If you find this is with you then go see a good TCM practitioner - with the help of acupuncture and herbs you can bring these things into balance.

Enjoy the weekend.
