Hi Maddie, Knowing the past history of this forum being populated by really deluded individuals borderline pathological, I thought you were one of them too by posting photos of a friend, girlfriend or relative. Please take no offence, I had no idea you were a transgender. All the best, Gerard

Irrelevant. Finish all your created at once lifetimes and GAME OVER. How many? As many as you did with the initial *Big Bang (all souls/minds' efforts to create reality). It coukd be 201, 250, 310, who knows. "The Big Bang was the moment 13.8 billion years ago when the universe began as a tiny, dense, fireball that exploded. Most astronomers use the Big Bang theory to explain how the universe began. But *what caused this explosion in the first place is still a mystery." *Refer to the first paragraph. Time is still irrelevant as it's a mind construction to asign a date to an specific event from the space-time continuum. Outside that, it no longer exists.

Goodbye Water Rabbit. You were such a drag. Glad you are gone now and I was offending the Grand Duke Jupiter (Tai Sui) as a Horse: Few will dare challenge the authority of the Grand Duke, in fear of adversity. I survived for sure.

The Rabbit is pure spring wood element. It is described as a leaf or flower so it is not able to generate much fire like the Tiger wood, as such the year 2023 is pure water and wood and there is total absence of fire element like the previous years 2020 and 2021. As fire is symbol of happiness and positive energy in Chinese 5 element system, fire element is necessary to stimulate economic activities. When fire is totally absent, there will be less confidence and less drive for investment activities. These may lead to pessimism in the economy and set back in the stock market. The economic recovery which we experienced in 2022 may slow down. Such absence of fire will continue into 2024. As real fire element will not return before 2025 year of Snake, it will not be surprising that a more significant setback in stock market may appear in the autumn and winter season of 2023. The real economic recovery can only arrive by 2025 year of wood snake. Yin Water symbolize humble, moderate drop of water. It is also representing intelligence, flexibility, accommodating, and considerate thinking. As such, it is associate with clever compromising solution to difference and innovative, creative ideas. A typical yin water person is Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms born in 181 AD. He is considered to be the most intelligent war strategist who won the battle of the Red Cliff with very innovative plots.

Welcome Wood Dragon. You are in full charge now. What a dynamic change here in Australia. I was moving fast this morning didn't want to stop! Love this new animal/energy.

Well, another animal about to go and a totally different one is arriving on February 10. Every year around the 4th of February when the annual Feng Shui energy is changing; the bells of the New Chinese Year are not far away. Not only do the annual 9 Flying Star change, but also the three gods (cosmic energy constellations) move to different compass directions influencing our lives. I'll write a full report soon with some predictions.

Glad to read I was helpful.

The real question is not enlightenment but the ULTIMATE STATE you are in besides this physical experience of you here and now for the time being. The Egg Little good reading.

OK, other legit teachers are based at UC Davis: https://tccatucd.wordpress.com/instructors/ Particularly Daniel Quincy.

Hello, This looks legit: http://sacramentochi.com/testimonials/ But you need to get a real life feeling if you'll be able to connect with the system so it's best to attend a free lesson first and see how it goes from there. Gpod luck!

There you go: Taiwan's strongest earthquake in 25 years kills nine, tsunami warnings lifted Japan lifted the tsunami alert following the quake: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/04/03/japan/okinawa-tsunami-warning/ Yet more to come. This is only the beginning of a string of similar events.

I'm a euro too and it would be totally foreign to me hadn't I moved to Australia, where the movement of Wood and Fire are the dominant forces here (South and East). I started Ba Gua Quan/Zhang in 2008 combined with a bit of seated and more moving meditation Vipassana based. The sky is the limit let me tell you that.

Hard yakka is Australian slang, it means hard work; in this case a lot of daily practice over many years following a strong method not some random Qigong.

YOU ARE ALREADY ENLIGHTENED AND THE REST OF HUMANITY The question is TO FIND OUT HOW (the hard yakka).

I forgot to add the following: 1. Nourish the mother of Wood, which is Water. Peak hours are 3pm to 8pm. 2. Nourish the Wood itself. Peak hours midnight to sunrise. So to benefit from that practice during those hours. Wood is intensified during spring season and full moon period.

Street, park, anywhere outdoors. It's what I do. Asians do that too anywhere.

Five years ago I was told by optometrist my eyes were starting to get into the condition of ocular hypertension which in the old age could turn into a glaucoma. Mind you back then I wasn't even doing a 1/4 of the grounding I did today. I understood why He Jinghan is a grounding specialist. Today I I 100% backup his entire YT channel. We have become excessively visual and tech obsessed which is all a manifestation of excessive Wood movement. I was born like that, like most of the Western world: study, watch, TV, computers, smartphones, excessive thinking. How to fix it with exercise is my only recommendation tbh: 1. Long walks in nature, the longer the better. 2. Asian squat as often as you like on a daily basis. Do it straight after any computer, smartphone, TV and mental activity like study or academic work, research and the like. Stay low relaxed and breathing moving the Qi down to your feet and deep into the earth starting from the top of the head. Mind leads the Qi. It works wonders. Other than that Ba Gua Zhang. Why? Because it's a very Wood type of internal art. You'll be constantly moving which in turn stimulates the movement of Qi and blood. It will nourish and open your eyes. Also walking meditation many hours a day (Vipassana), but it is tedious and boring unless you practice in the natural environment.

Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapses after being struck by cargo ship; 6 people still missing Water Rabbit is very active as the Qi is departing the forces involved (Yon Wood force down and Water force is in gathering mode, reservoir, lake, etc.) and maybe conflicting with the waiting to be fully activated Wood Dragon (Earth & Yang Wood). Ship hits bridge (Wood Dragon rising force) and collapses (pulling down force of Water Rabbit). Also take into account direction of ship travel and location of the bridge which are a result of imbalance in the 5 Elements/Forces in that particular location. Anyone familiar with that location?

A very helpful analysis of 2024: The three major Feng Shui afflictions: Tai Sui (The Grand Duke of Jupiter) Sui Po (The Year Breaker) San Sha (The Three Killings) To minimise bad luck for those offending animals in 2024, Dragon and Dog: https://picturehealer.com/blog/2024-tai-sui-the-yearly-god-sui-po-the-year-breaker-and-san-sha-3-killings-afflictions Hope this helps.

What is causing the problem in the first place? Excessive computer/smartphone use? Lack of daily grounding? Remember: the Liver opens in the eyes. Any Liver issues will reflect in eye problems (amongst a myriad of other conditions),

Maybe Atlantis was really located in the Sea of Japan. Yonaguni. Maybe the face on Mars is an ancient alien building. But really they are all pseudo-archaeology. Man-made myths that all have a logical explanation.

Could you please fix this error. The problem occurred here: Same thread just a few days earlier I was able to insert a pic with no trouble at all. Thank you.

Have you tried it for at least a full year of constant practice? If it works keep doing it; otherwise find another method.

You have to keep breaking your Heart until it opens. Your Heart is the size on an ocean, go find yourself within its hidden depths.
