August 2019 FLYING STAR & ELEMENTAL FORECAST
August 2019 is Yang Water on a Metal Monkey month and begins on the 8 th at 3:14 am
August 8th is also mid-year in the Solar Calendar, so we are officially halfway through the Chinese Year of the Earth Pig. This is where the water element is also the strongest in the 2nd half of the year, especially with stronger water months that are to follow. Therefore, there will be a big influence of the Water Element which represents our immune system, ears, bladder, kidneys, legs, floods, rains, coldness, sea travel, tsunamis, emotions are fear and trust.
On a global level water brings about fear or the aspect of the unknown, therefore, the focus may be on discoveries in our waters, water disasters, landslides due to floods and heavy rains, climatically colder weather especially in the Southern Hemisphere , iceberg melting on a faster level, and also the beginning of a decline in the stock market.
The Monkey is also the beginning of the Water trine, Monkey, Rat & Dragon which brings about a strong water combination.
Yang Water is like an ocean, it is determined, forceful, driven, detached, intuitive, aggressive and will go where it wants to go.
The Monkey is clever, active, thrives on having fun, and a heartbreaker.
Health blog from TCM aspects for the month of July & August is;
Yin Metal is the lungs, skin and buttocks
Earth Goat is stomach and back.
August is Yang Water is the bladder and legs.
Metal Monkey is the colon and the lungs.
From the Chinese medicine point of view, the corresponding organs for winter are the Kidney and bladder.
All the organs are connected to each other and the two most common relationships for them are the generating (Sheng) cycle and controlling (Ke) cycle. The generating/mother organs for Kidney/bladder are Lung and Colon respectively and the controlling organs for Kidney/ bladder are spleen and stomach respectively.
Since this winter season we have been experiencing extreme cold weather, the Kidney and bladder energy would be weakened. Kidney looks after the bone and marrow, and the corresponding area are back/buttocks/legs. If the kidney suffers, people tend to have lower back pain, hip pain and leg pain/sciatica. Also, if the kidney is weak, it cannot control water hence leading to some urination problems such as leaking bladder, UTI, oedema etc…
When the son organ is weak, the mother organs suffer as well. The lung and colon deficiencies would cause many respiratory and digestive system problems. That’s why we have had a lot of flu, asthma and pneumonia since the start of winter this year. Lungs oversee the skin, some skin conditions would occur, such as eczema, dry skin etc, if they are not at optimal state.
In order to maintain your health this winter, we need to strengthen the kidney energy by having regular and moderate exercise (eg: yoga, Pilates, Tai chi, Qi gong, meditation etc). Also, have bone broth once or twice a week would be good to replenish the kidney energy. Foot bath would be another way to strengthen the kidney and Lung qi.
