Get ready for a thrilling ride into a year filled with transformative energies. The Year of the Wood Dragon, based on the Chinese Zodiac and Five Element Theory, is about to kick start from February 10, 2024 and extend its influence until January 29, 2025. Unlike other zodiac signs, the dragon symbolises a mythical force, signifying strength and courage. The coming year, under the influence of the Wood Dragon, promises empowerment and a chance to conquer fears. Whether you’re born under this sign or not, the Wood Dragon’s influence promises collective support throughout the year.
The Chinese zodiac, with its 12 animal signs and association with five elements, offers a unique perspective compared to Western astrology. The twelve signs, rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig each bring unique characteristics, while the elements, wood, fire, earth, metal and water, add another layer of complexity. Unlike the Western zodiac that follows the sun, the Chinese zodiac is moon based. It takes a full 12 years for the cycle to cross all its archetypes and the last encounter with the dragon year was in 2012.
For those born in the Year of the Dragon, here’s a special note from Chinese astrology, “In Chinese astrology, when your zodiac sign comes back around, you offend Tai Sui the God of Age and incur his ominous wrath.”
To ward off this curse, take extra precautions and intensify efforts to dismiss negativity while attracting good fortune. According to tradition, using jade jewellery and wearing red clothing, especially red underwear gifted by others, is believed to enhance your chances of going through this period unharmed. Remember the saying, “Red or dead, can dig.”
The Year of the Wood Dragon brings a lot of energy and reactions. The element of wood adds fuel to the fire, making the dragon’s impact more intense and a bit unpredictable. If you’re looking for change, this year is all about it, taking a bold approach to bring in something new. Globally, a Wood Dragon year might mean that things might get a bit turbulent, progress will come, but it might not be smooth.
In this cycle, the lesson isn’t about compromise, where someone or everyone loses, but finding creative solutions where everyone gains more than expected. Drawing inspiration from the dragon myth, extending a helping hand to others not only earns respect but secures our own place in the circle of success. According to Evan Nathaniel Grim, a zodiac expert and founder of Inner Worlds Astrology, the alignment of Mars with Uranus in mid July, could bring sudden leadership changes in the political system. As we approach the election, it remains to be seen which candidate will emerge as the winner.
