Trust the timing! That’s the message for this week, between July 15 – 21, 2024, for all Chinese zodiac signs. Hidden things will reveal themselves when the time is right, much like a flower bud that blooms once every twelve years. Trust the signs! Before we look at the weekly horoscopes for every sign, here are the general messages for the collective.
The I Ching hexagram for this week is Fire over Mountain (#56), changing to Fire over Fire (#30). It urges us to step out of our comfort zone, but not when our intuition blares alarm bells. You are the only one who decides what pace is right for you and how you will experience life’s journey. If someone is faster than you or appears to be grittier, that’s just an outside perspective based on surface-level cues. Focus on yourself, and you will discover life’s true magic.
If you feel called to, start a dream journal and record the messages from your subconscious floating up through your dreams. The signs and symbols will reveal the truth if you are observant. You can also journal your conscious thoughts in this same book and see if there are any patterns and parallels. Now, let’s focus on the weekly horoscopes for each Chinese zodiac sign.
