It has been a while for me to write on the blog. Not much has been going on other than the economy downturn and all. However there is a solar eclipse on the first day of the lunar new year. This is the most interesting event in the recent astrology calendar.
Since this eclipse has fallen on the first day of the lunar new year (Chinese new year), many local specialists predict that there will be a lot of sorrow during the new year of 2009. Meanwhile we have been under a Mercury retrograde. The sun represents the future of the self and soul. When it is blocked by the moon (past/emotion) during the Mercury retrograde, it will probably bring many people a way to look back into their life and find a new way to move onto the future.
This is my first year to stay in Taipei instead of staying home. I am very curious of what to do during the holidays. I decide to choose Tarot cards: the Sun and the Moon to reflect the most impressive astrology event in the lunar new year. The third card I choose is the page of pentacles from the reading I did. We will wait to see what the new year brings for every one involved...
