The Year of the Ox, which started on January 26, might be your most peaceful year since 2000. The Ox in Chinese astrology is no bull in a china shop. He/she is a born leader, being quite dependable and possessing an innate ability to achieve great things. They are tireless workers who are detail oriented and believe in doing things right the first time. The ox person is not extravagant, and spends his/her money wisely. Some famous Oxen are Barack Obama, Jon Bon Jovi, Jeff Bridges, Richard Burton, Charlie Chaplin, Bill Cosby, Sammy Davis Jr, Walt Disney, Dustin Hoffman and Anthony Hopkins.
The Year of the Earth Ox, 2009, can be symbolized by a garden, giving it a sense of harmony. With the Ox you can imagine a peaceful, relaxing garden or field with oxen eating grass. It is a year for healing and relaxation from the turbulent times the world has experienced since 2001. It is a time for rebuilding and reconstruction from the damage brought by natural disasters and the financial tsunami of 2008. The Year of the Ox is also a time to seek peaceful settlements, narrow the differences between cultures, and begin to care for one another. It is a year of pure Earth element so the theme for this year is caring for our planet Earth. The element of Earth will bring the mood of meditation… calm, thoughtful and peaceful means to settle any differences that may arise in 2009.
The Five Elements (Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, Wood) in Chinese medicine represent different parts of your body. The Earth element governs your digestive system, stomach, pancreas, muscles and cells. So these are the health problems that will occur the most in 2009. If you have suffered from heartburn or diabetes it is time to seek professional help. Health problems related to the Earth element include stomach problems, acid reflux or IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). Some of the ways that stress affects your digestive tract is it decreases the contractions of the small intestine and increases the contractions of the large intestine. (Not good)
Disorders of the Earth element can also mean problems of muscles and cells, like obesity. If you want to lose weight, check out our Acupuncture Weight Control at http://www.orientalmedcare.com/loss_weight_acupuncture.html.
Continuing on the issue of health problems, there is an absence of the Fire element in 2009, which could emphasize cardiovascular problems. These are all problems that Chinese medicine excels at treating.
