Daily Energy Forecast Update

Today, the challenging 5-yellow star sits in the center of the loshu grid. Unfortunately this star is double weighted as the month of February is also represented by this same star. With that being said, it is best to stay low in terms of setting new business or any major decision. All the trigrams align to their natural home when the 5 - star takes the center position.  Therefore, the energy in each portent is exacerbated. Areas to focus your energy today are as follows:

  • Goals: It is a good day to review your long-term and short-term goals. Don't make any major changes to them. Simply streamline what you have.
  • Networking for new opportunities: Take the position of exploring who you can reach out to for future work, but don't actually set up a meeting. Use this day for exploratory work instead.
  • Career: Do you have a long-term plan in place for your career? If not, today is a good day to lay the framework.
  • Self Exploration: Delve within yourself to find the answers you are looking for. Spend at lease 30 minutes in meditation today.
*Note: Money is strong to the northeast today so go ahead and place moving water and some money there!

9 Clearing Cycles - A Seven Minute Daily Breathing Practice





This is a breathing practice you'll be glad to engage in on a daily basis. Begin by sitting in a comfortable position and elongating the spine. Close off the right nostril and slowly inhale and exhale through the left nostril 5 times, allowing 5 seconds for each in breath and 5 seconds for each out breath. Then close the left nostril, and take 5 slow through the right nostril. Now you begin the 9 clearing rounds. Close the right nostril and through the left nostril allow a slow inhalation followed by a slow exhalation. Then breath in slowly again followed by a brisk exhalation. These 4 breaths make up one round. Do three rounds. After three rounds on the left, close the left nostril and complete three rounds through the right. Remember, the rhythm of each round is in slow, out slow, in slow, out fast. After three rounds through both the right and left, repeat the same thing through both nostrils together for 3 rounds. This makes up the 9 clearing cycles. While you exhale on the left side, imagine you are letting go of your greed. While you are exhaling on the right side, you can aspire to release all of your hatred.
