Damp Dog sounds Horn to Build new bed

Today's Water Dog sees the start of several new cycles in Chinese astrology and metaphysics. Firstly, water itself is associated with birth; clearly the first stage in the cycle of life. Water is also associated with sound and music, which brings us nicely to the Horn, the first Lunar Mansion in a new 28 day cycle that begins today

Horn days are good for growth, birth and marriage and not so good for concluding affairs or funerals. The Chinese almanac further suggests that it is also good for travelling, getting engaged, having an astrology reading, emigrating, buying or setting a direction for your bed, or opening a warehouse.

The final cycle of today is called Jian Chu and means to build or discard. Being a Build day, it’s good to amass and build on something already existing.

To see how your own horoscope is personally affected by today's sign see our dedicated Water Dog web page. We will return tomorrow on a Water Pig day.

Until then, enjoy NOW!
