Year of the Yang Water Tiger

The New Energy of the Year of the Yang Water Tiger

We are all affected by the energy – Qi around us and within us. We are moving into a new energy of the Yang Water Tiger. 

Looking at the aspects of the energy of the coming Year we have Yang, Water and the Tiger quite an exciting and powerful year to come. 

Yang is outward moving raising fast moving energy of bright light and activity, Yang is creative, transformative. Though needs to be balanced with our Yin energy so not to get depleted.

Water is inner strength our power and an inheritance from our ancestors. Water energy stores our Jing which is responsible for birth, growth, reproduction and development. Water gives will, willpower, ambition, drive and motivation. This must be controlled as it can deplete the Qi. Water still and quiet or controlling and violent.

The Tiger is courageous and energetic, love a challenge or competition and  take risks. The Tiger is hungry for excitement and craves attention. The Tiger energy can also be rebellious, short-tempered and outspoken, preferring to give orders rather than take them, which often leads to conflict.

Looks like an interesting year ahead, move movement than the last few years!

How you interact with the World 

To relate and deal with the energy of each year, day and even each hour, the Traditional Five Element Acupuncturist uses this system to treat each person to their individual needs.

The core of your personality affects how you interact with the world around you, how you assess each situation in daily life. The Five Element system helps you understand and encourages you to embrace who you are.

The Five Element System

The Five Element system has been practiced for thousands of years originating in China and Japan and is the method used for Traditional Five Element Acupuncture.

The five different elements are Fire, Earth, Metal, Water and Wood.  Each element has certain properties which align with a different personality – your Causative Factor or Guardian Element. We are made up of all the Five Elements which must work together creating the system of Body, Mind and Spirit functions to Flow, Control and Feed.

Your Guardian Element

We all have a dominant Element known as the Guardian Element, with two other inner Elements that we can relate to.  For example, you could be mostly a Wood Element with Fire and Metal element tendencies.

The role of Guardian Element, our primary element is to protect and treat but it also enables all the Five Elements to work together with the result that our Body, Mind and Spirit flourish.

Element Interaction

Each Element is tempered by the others. None exists alone and its action is always modified and enhanced by the element surrounding it. Good health is where an Element is given the space to unfold as it needs to, while being supported by and supporting other elements. Poor health is the result of Elements not working together.

Traditional Five Element Acupuncture identifies your Guardian Element, your inner Elements to treat and re-balance your Body, Mind and Spirit.
