#246 - Weekly Energy Update for January 22, 2023

Happy Lunar New Year! 2023 is the Year of the Water Rabbit. The rabbit is the fourth animal sign in the Chinese zodiac and is known to be the luckiest of the 12 zodiac animals and symbolizes peace and longevity. The Lunar New Year represents new beginnings and the renewal of good health, happiness, and fortune. The year 2023 is predicted to be one of hope and optimism.

Chinese Astrology also incorporates the five elements: Water, Metal, Wood, Earth, and Fire. The Water element represents sensitivity, intuition, and, in its most positive form, the way to inner peace. The Water Rabbit Year promises a period of rest and reflection after the dynamic Year of the Tiger. Some refer to 2023 as the "Year of the Black Rabbit" since the Yin Water element is related to the color black.

This is a significant moment for new beginnings, especially in light of yesterday's Aquarius New Moon. That was the first new moon of 2023 and was very powerful for planning because it occurred in the future-oriented sign of Aquarius.

The new moon also formed a very tight, harmonizing sextile to Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion. This brings a wave of enthusiasm, joy, and optimism and invites us to take the initiative and move forward.

This is one of those lovely moments in life when the energy inspires us to make a fresh start and live more authentically. We've been given a second chance at life. Everything is supporting us. This is the time to adjust anything that you aren't completely satisfied with. Bask in this energy and get ready for your life to change.
