Mysticism, Intuition, and Wisdom

Hold on to your Hot Pants!

That is theme for the Month of Yin Metal Snake which begins on May 5th of the Yin Wood Snake year. The handle of the Big Dipper turns to the southern direction signaling the beginning of summer in Chinese cosmology!

Snake is the first animal of summer’s fire trio followed by Horse, then Goat.

In BaZi Chinese Astrology, Snake is the symbol of wisdom, intuition, mysticism, intelligence, gentleness and cautiousness and may be conceited, insatiable, sluggish, seductive and savvy.

The hour associated with Snake is 9-10:59am - This is the time for getting things done!

Metta Meditation

Snake is connected with the Small Intestine Organ and the Spleen meridian system. The image is sunshine on damp earth/soil. Moisture/water is needed in the earth/soil to protect plants from harsh strong sunshine. In Chinese cosmology Snake transforms to Reverse Yin Wood this month which can generate wind in the pericardium.
