We are in the time of year where everything is growing apace and pushing through with the energy of the wood element. It is exciting and can be a little chaotic with 'things' sprouting everywhere. It can be intense and overwhelming, where we start feeling like we can't see the 'wood for the trees'. In the law of the five elements it is the metal element that controls wood. Think pruning, cutting and weeding with metal tools. Also timing, routine, hard structures (like spreadsheets) and money all are associated with the metal element. I am feeling the need to prune back and weed out my goals, visions and areas of my growth so I can really focus my energy towards small and sustainable successes particularly in my work. So how can you get the wood energy of spring focused into specific growth? What needs cutting back and weeding out, so releasing more energy for your 'right' direction? Enjoy pruning and weeding on all levels this weekend, love Sarah-Jayne xx
