Today is the 23rd of May and it is a yang earth tiger day. The tiger is wood and wood breaks up earth. There is conflict between heaven and earth.

The chart looks like this:

• Year: yin metal rabbit (wood)
• Month: yin water snake (fire)
• Day: yang earth tiger (wood)

The tiger and the snake are in clash with each other, and the tiger and the rabbit could come together to form a partial season of wood but there is no heavenly stem to support the action - one day too late!

If you are vulnerable to travel signs or the tiger, snake or monkey are important to you then today is a travel warning. It is a fire penalty at 1500 - 1700 hrs so take care - be wise and sensible, just like you were yesterday.

We have a strongish flow from the power palace through the emperor today and then there is a secondary flow in the yin circuit. That flow is only very minimal in its impact on the emperor. It does contribute a little.

The weakest energy today is yang water. This deficit in energy will bring the issues related to the kidney meridian into relief. As it is a fire penalty day then we can focus on circulation and the movement of qi throughout the body. It is a day to be really moving your body in a focused way. It is a time to be strengthening your lower burner and particularly your feet, right at the bottom of the arch of the foot.
