Chinese Zodiac 2024: The Year of the Wood Dragon: What to Expect
Prepare yourself for an exciting journey into a changing year ahead of you. According to the Five Element Theory and the Chinese Zodiac, February 10, 2024, will mark the beginning of the Year of the Wood Dragon, which will last until January 29, 2025. In contrast to other zodiac signs, the dragon represents bravery and power and is associated with a legendary force. Under the Wood Dragon’s influence, the next year offers an opportunity for empowerment and fear-conquering. Whether you were born under this sign or not, the Wood Dragon’s influence ensures that everyone will be supported all year long.
The Chinese zodiac, with its 12 animal signs and affinity with five elements, gives a distinct viewpoint compared to Western astrology. In addition to the elements—wood, fire, earth, metal, and water—the twelve signs—rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig—each provide special qualities. Unlike the Western zodiac that follows the sun, the Chinese zodiac is moon-based. The cycle crosses all of its archetypes in a complete 12-year cycle, with the final occurrence of the dragon year occurring in 2012.
Here’s a particular reminder from Chinese astrology for individuals born in the Year of the Dragon: “In Chinese astrology, you offend Tai Sui the God of Age and incur his ominous wrath when your zodiac sign comes back around.”
Take additional measures and step up your efforts to push out negativity and draw in good luck in order to fight off this curse. Wearing red clothes, particularly red undergarments that someone else has given you, and wearing jade jewelry are said to increase your chances of surviving this time unscathed. Recall the proverb, “Can dig, red or dead.”
There are a lot of emotions and responses during the Year of the Wood Dragon. Wood fuels the flames, increasing the dragon’s impact and adding an element of unpredictability. This year is all about making a bold move to introduce something new if you’re seeking for change. A Wood Dragon year might indicate that things will get a little chaotic globally, that progress will occur, but it could not go smoothly.
The lesson in this cycle is not to make compromises that result in someone or everyone losing, but rather to come up with innovative solutions that benefit everyone more than anticipated. Taking a cue from the fable of the dragon, lending a helping hand to others not only gains us respect but also ensures our position in the success circle. The originator of Inner Worlds Astrology and a zodiac specialist, Evan Nathaniel Grim, believes that abrupt changes in political leadership might result from Mars’ connection with Uranus in mid-July. The election is quickly approaching, and it is unclear which candidate will prevail.
