In this episode, astrologer Christopher Renstrom provides a deep examination of the symbolism and cultural beliefs surrounding the Chinese Lunar New Year and its correlation with Chinese Astrology. He emphasizes the fundamental difference between Western and Chinese astrology, and also delves into the significance of the animals and elements in Chinese astrology, especially with regards to the Year of the Wood Dragon. Finally, he tells a symbolic story dating back to the Han Dynasty, which ties back to the central theme of wisdom and enlightenment. This year is one that encourages seeking wisdom and understanding beyond immediate fulfilment or gratification.0:00 Year of the Dragon00:07 Introduction04:40 The Significance of the North Pole08:41 The 28 Lunar Mansions09:46 The Year of the Dragon16:38 The Yearly Zodiac Cycle19:25 The Meaning of the Dragon23:27 The Jade Emperor & the Four Dragons27:39 The Elements in Chinese Astrology29:00 The Wood Dragon37:28 The Dragon & The Pearl?
