RELAX
The Overall 2014 Outlook
By Ken Koh
2014 is the Year of the
and is
Wood Horse
expressed by way of two
elements namely Wood
over the element of Fire
(as represented
by the Horse).
This is the chart of the
Year of the Wood Horse
in 2014.
For reasons of understanding the year in focus,
we shall analyse the two elements as represented
by the year, which in this case is Yang Wood over
the Horse (expressed as Yin Fire). In the cycle
of production amongst the five elements, Wood
produces Fire which should point to a year of
harmony and positive results.
However, unique to this relationship, the Wood
character is one of unshakable inner strengths,
stubborn and unyielding with a dual personality
of conflicting decisions. Yang Wood can also be
visualized as a huge tree under a blazing sun,
cracking under pressure but unwilling to give up.
Yang Wood is also very territorial. If this situation is
robbed of Water, the Wood will not survive besides
having the need for earth to take root.
In this year’s chart, Water and Earth is missing. As a
result, this can mean a conflict situation involving Yin
Fire over water and earth. Tensions and accidents
in the seas over space or land are likely scenarios
where fire-power, explosions and fire break-outs will
be evident.
In 2013, the Water Snake year was one of
unsuspecting occurrences such as sudden policies,
the haze situation, the dengue outbreak, CHC saga,
sex scandals and the Little India riots. Going forward,
2014 will be filled with dogmatic standpoints and
fighting for rights. Because it is starved of Water
and Earth, wisdom and authority will be redundant.
Serious conflicts on the world map thus cannot be
ruled out.
