July 4th, 1776    The Mountain Year

Looking back to this important date in American history is actually quite revealing from an I Ching Astrology perspective. The birth of a person, the formation of a company or in this case a country can all be looked at in terms of timing.

1776 was an 8 Mountain Year. The 8 Star stands up for change, justice and revolution. The 8 Star belongs to the Youngest Son in the I Ching and he can be independent, free, revolutionary and persistent.

July 4th still sits in June in I Ching Astrology and here the month was governed by the 7 Lake Star who also seeks independence. This is the Youngest Daughter in the I Ching. Here you have the two youngest members of the family joining forces to create something new without Ma and Pa and their elder siblings. The combination stands for the spirit of youth and optimism without worrying about the long term consequences.

Your Weekly Feng Shui Tip: Nurture Your Money Plant!

Go into most Chinese homes or businesses and you will see the ubiquitous money plant gleaming in the corner somewhere. Revered as a source of money or wealth, what is the reality? The money plant is also known as crassula argenta and is actually a succulent and despises being over watered. It will keep drinking all the water and eventually rot! So be careful. Also, it needs sunshine. It is no use putting it in the so called wealth area of your home if it gets no sunshine!
 
Change its pot every 2 years. Use cactus compost and a few drops of tomato feed, they love the potassium. If it flowers then you are in luck!
