The Chinese Year of the Wooden Horse 

4/14/2014

The year 2014 is the year of the horse. Only this horse is wooden and that means  stubbornness in ones beliefs and challenges in life. Now, if you own a business involving wood or fire the year of the horse bodes well,  but if you are into real estate the wooden horse is known to gallop pretty fast  in a downward position. However, wood transitions into fire by mid-year and that means they will gallop upward again.

So, just as I'm feeling better about the housing market, fire heats up the horse and starts people fighting over their beliefs and ideals with more intensity than usual.
And if you live on or near the ring of fire, be on the look out for earthquakes and volcanoes. I live on the ring of fire and near some volcanoes so, with the turn of a phrase I'm not so positive anymore.

Might be a good year to take an extended vacation. Especially for me.

You see, the year I was born was the year of the horse. And when horse meets horse, the Yin/Yang is no longer balanced so I'm due for some tense situations and pressures in my personal life. Of course, a horse meeting horse can also mean I'm due for some one on one with myself. Time for some personal introspection.

Oh, and don't forget to clean your home. No wonder I've been a busy beaver bad back and all. Which leads into the MRI I had on Friday. Well, let's back track one day to Thursday. I've been ducking the phone call from my orthopedic office for over a week. They wanted me to sign up for physical therapy and I get that it's necessary and all, but hey, it's not like I've never done it before because I have. I see no sense in spending more money until we can figure out why and how I tore my rotator cuff.

When I eventually felt guilty enough for ducking the phone calls, I called them to let them know I wasn't participating in physical therapy until my arm was diagnosed. The very lovely young lady informed me, after I droned on for several minutes, that that was not why she was calling. I very quickly shut up as she informed me that my x-rays had show significant deterioration in the state of my back and that as of right now, no physical therapy until after the doc has explained to me the issues of my spine.

After that, I figure there's no way I'm missing my MRI appointment which went well considering no one ever told me the stupid tube gets smaller as you go in. My ortho surgeon wanted me to have this MRI done because it is extra fancy or something. Problem was, he didn't mention the tube got smaller as you go in. I am well a
ware I've repeated myself. 

I should have known something was up when the tech handed me the 'panic button'. But since I'm a horse in the year of the horse I expected some kind of reaction. When the tube was just inches from my face and there was no room to move, panic began. Luckily, I was prepared. It was not like the time I visited Moaning Caverns in the Sierra Nevada Foothill. Oh, baby, that was a bad one. I completely freaked, scaring my kids and my poor mother-in-law. Nope, this time I began breathing and soon had myself in a nice meditative trance. It was nice to realize I've conqueror a fear and I gave myself over to some self-congratulation through meditative  introspection.

I have no idea what will happen when the month is horse, I'm horse, and the year is horse, but my annual horoscope recommends that I should make back-up plans to my plans And to be generous in allowing enough time to make my mark in my own year.

Actually, that sounds kind of lucky in its own way.
