Exploring the Influence of the October Super Moon in Chinese Astrology
Welcome to #BaziWisdom & #FengShuiFriday by Margaret
When it comes to Chinese astrology, lunar occurrences like full moons are often interpreted based on the Chinese Zodiac and the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water). The full moon on October 17, 2024 will be strongly influenced by the Year of the Dragon. In 2024, it will be the Wood Dragon year, blending the Dragon's bold and self-reliant nature with the nurturing and growth-focused characteristics of the Wood element.
Below is my examination of how the prevalence of Yang Wood in the chart for the Super Moon on October 17, 2024 corresponds with fundamental concepts in Chinese astrology and metaphysics.
### Breakdown of the Elements and Influences:
1. Yang Wood in Year, Month, and Day Stems:
- Yang Wood represents strong, upward-growing energy, symbolizing expansion, growth, and ambition. With Yang Wood dominating the chart in the Year, Month, and Day stems, this full moon enhances themes of persistence and the desire to initiate long-term growth, both internally and externally.
2. Clash of Yang Wood and Yang Earth (Hour Stem):
- The clash between Yang Wood and Yang Earth in the Hour stem suggests friction or conflict in how intentions (Hour Pillar) are translated into action. Yang Earth is stable, grounded, and slow-moving, while Yang Wood pushes forward assertively. This clash emphasizes a need to find balance between driven action and grounded practicality, reflecting on whether your actions align with your core intentions.
3. Disruption from the Dog-Dragon Clash:
- The Dog-Dragon clash brings disruptive energies. The Dragon (in the Year) and Dog (in the Month) are Earth elements, but they are incompatible, leading to instability. This clash highlights that October will be a time of necessary disruptions—perhaps challenges that encourage recalibration or letting go of outdated systems or beliefs.
4. Hidden Fire and Wood Energies:
- The Tiger (Day) and Dragon (Hour) bring out Hidden Fire and Wood energies. This suggests that while the surface may be turbulent, there's a deeper undercurrent of transformation (Fire) and renewal (Wood). Fire represents passion and cleansing, while Wood signifies new growth. This combination points to breakthroughs that arise from internal reflection, leading to growth over the next few months.
### Key Themes:
- Growth and Transformation: The Hidden Wood of Spring symbolizes regrowth and transformation. The disruptions caused by the Dog-Dragon clash are pushing toward positive change, whether in tangible outcomes or inner breakthroughs.
- Reflection on Intentions: Given the clash between Yang Wood and Yang Earth, this Super Moon calls for deep reflection on how actions align with intentions. Are you pursuing growth for the right reasons? Is your inner purpose aligned with what you're building?
As mentioned earlier, the present time will set the groundwork for the forthcoming four-month period leading up to the Year of the Snake, signifying a time of transformation and understanding. The current disturbances are paving the way for future progress, involving both tangible accomplishments and personal development.
May you be ready!
