It’s
2013! And I quite like the number 13. Perhaps because so many people do not! I traveled
on the 13th once, and suffice to say I had the entire back of the plane
to myself!
2013
is, as my brother-in-law so eloquently said, ‘uncharted ground!’ Every year I start
my year with a good read up on all the different philosophies and what they
have to say. I see it as having a look at the map before the journey starts.

2013
is the year of the Water Snake according to Chinese astrology. It begins
February 10th. The snake, also known as the junior dragon, is an enigmatic,
intuitive, introspective, refined and collected creature. Ancient Chinese
wisdom says a snake in the house is a good omen as it means that the family
will not starve. In the year of the Water Snake, all things will be possible. Saving money and being thrifty should
be on top of your list of priorities.
‘While
the outside seems to be solid, the inside is empty. Hence it is a year of conservation, a year of
rebuilding and a year of changes’, this is what Paul Ng has to say about this
year.
Numerologically
speaking, 2013 adds up to the number 6, which apparently personifies the idea
that we should love others as we love ourselves. This year there is focus on
helping others less fortunate, and assessing how important material things are
to us.
I have moon calendars in my shop made by a
talented astrologer, Fiona Sim, from Cape
Town
The calendar said ~ ‘Time to get organised, fix
and finish things. The mood is useful and helpful. Enjoy health foods and
stalls, crafts, detail work and planning.’ So if you found yourself organizing a
little more than is healthy for a New Years day, that may have been why!
I take these things with a pinch of salt, but I find
it increasingly interesting how, in retrospect, there's a truth to them!
Happy 2013 everyone, may this year be blinded by
how brightly you can shine!
