Water Dragon by Lumaris

I always like to share the info of the energies we are moving into just before they actually arrive, as that way we have time to reflect and align more harmoniously with what we are given to work with. That said, the year of the Dragon is upon us and what a potent year! So many doorways opening with all this shifting energy. The Dragon year approaching is specifically that of a Water Dragon: Water has a calming effect on the Dragon’s fearless temperament. Water allows the Dragon to re-direct its enthusiasm, and makes him more perceptive of others. These Dragons are better equipped to take a step back to re-evaluate a situation because they understand the art of patience and do not desire the spotlight like other Dragons. Therefore, they make smart decisions and are able to see eye-to-eye with other people.

It will be a year of harmony and integration with powerful wisdom and magickal intent indeed! A culmination of success and happiness to all we have been working towards will be supported.

For more on the year to come I hope you enjoy this blog post by the staff at California Psychics: http://blog.californiapsychics.com/blog/2010/05/2012-year-of-the-dragon.html

We are also experiencing the liberating energy of an Aquarius New Moon that takes place late tonight and early morning tomorrow, depending on your time zone, but as always we will experience this energy for a cycle. It’s a time for being, doing, thinking and feeling outside of the box and to experience a personal revolution, as you allow your innovative visionary free! But with the energies around, including the Water Dragon, it’s not time for rash impulsing. Rather, it is time to take these leaps in conscious, patient, heart-calculated ways that align yourself with all the elements so that you become the masterful magician of your life and are able to intuitively sense the right divine timing. Then bam! You make your moves without wasted efforts and the result is lasting, grounded, and optimal with efficient use of energy.

Here are a couple of good articles about the New Moon in Aquarius also taking place. Both are from mooncircles.com. The first combines both the New Moon and the Year of the Water Dragon:
