Earth Element's 2024 Year of the Dragon Forecast
Based on the Ancient Science of the I Ching
By: Dr. Mao Shing Ni
While 2024 contains the Earth element, which is beneficial for you, the presence of Wood may overbear you, increasing your adherence to habituation.
Physical Health
Stagnation Risk: Earth individuals in a Jia (Wood) and Chen (Earth) year accentuate your element’s stable but immovable nature, which means you may face stagnation, particularly in your digestive system, manifesting symptoms of bloating, gas, constipation, weight gain, and fatigue.
Incorporate variety such as gardening, bicycling, dancing, and Dao-In Yoga into physical activities to prevent a sense of monotony and promote your overall well-being. Incorporate more yellow and orange color foods such as sweet potato, squash, and pumpkin filled with microbiome-friendly resistant starches to help support your healthy digestive function. Use enzyme supplements like PhytoNzyme containing amylase, lipase, and protease to help break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Take the Earth Core Element formula containing polygonati, longan, and Mume plum to optimize and maintain your digestive and metabolic health balance.
Mental/Emotional Health
Worry and Overthinking: As a naturally-born caretaker, your Earth’s tendency is to worry about everyone, as well as overthink, which can affect your mental health and quality of life. In addition, your rootedness may also show up as resistance to change.
Cultivate adaptability to avoid mental stress and promote a healthy mindset. Guard against overthinking, which may affect physical health. Engage in mindfulness practices such as Earth Element meditation to stay grounded and present. Implement strategies such as scheduling a 20 minutes “worry-time” daily to address all your concerns, manage worries effectively, and maintain mental resilience.
Relationship Health
Rigidity in Routine: Earth individuals tend to be creatures of habit as routines create predictability and stability but may lead to monotony, hinder emotional communication, and impact relationship health.
Be open to spontaneity in your relationships. For example, take turns and plan something new and different for each week’s date night. Encourage open expression of emotions and feelings with games.
Career Health
Avoid Comfort Zone: Earth’s nature is stability, so naturally, at work, you prefer the predictable, and yet your resistance to change may come at the expense of your professional and career growth.
Avoid staying too comfortable in your career. Seek growth opportunities to prevent stagnation and embrace changes in your professional landscape. Empower your career by adapting to new opportunities.
Financial Health
Risk Aversion: Your Earth's cautious and plodding nature may lead to you being excessively risk averse and missing out on growth opportunities.
Balance caution with calculated risks for optimal financial growth. Explore diverse investment opportunities and diversify your financial portfolio.
Earth's 2024 Summary
In 2024, you may find a beneficial alignment with your element, but the influence of Wood may induce habituation. Manage physical health by incorporating variety into activities, consuming colorful foods, and using supplements like PhytoNzyme and Earth Core Element formula. Address mental and emotional challenges by cultivating adaptability, practicing mindfulness, and implementing worry-management strategies. In relationships, counter rigidity in routines by embracing spontaneity and encouraging open emotional expression. Navigate career health by avoiding excessive comfort, seeking growth opportunities, and embracing change. For financial health, balance caution with calculated risks, explore diverse investments and diversify your portfolio for optimal growth.
Remember, these insights are general in nature, and individual experiences may vary. It's always advisable to consult with a professional astrologer for a more personalized perspective on your astrological forecast in a Jia Chen Year.
