What color is the year of the Wooden Horse - what color is the year of the Horse
Accustomed to celebrate the New Year, focusing on the symbol of the year, corresponding to it in the eastern calendar, do not forget about such an important detail as its color. After all, it is the color that has the greatest influence on the fashion trends of the coming year.
But what color is the year of the Wooden Horse - the year 2014?
First let's see what determines the color of this or that symbol of the year. For this, let's look at the Chinese cyclical calendar. It has two main branches( they can be called axes), on which are recorded:
- on one side( vertically) - 12 characters-animals,
- on the other side( horizontally) - 5 elements( wood, fire, earth, metal, water).
In the middle part of the calendar( at the intersection of animal characters and elements) are years.
Elements additionally corresponds also to some one specific color, depending on its color in nature.
2014 falls at the intersection of the symbol-animal Horses and the elements of the Tree. As a result, we got a wooden horse. Color corresponding to the elements of the tree - green or blue-green - the color of the sky, grass, young shoots of the tree. That is, 2014 is the year of a green( or blue) wooden horse.
So, we sorted out the elements and the animal symbol, but why do we need to know what color the year of the wooden horse is?
For the beginning it is necessary to understand that luck in this or that year accompanies those who are in harmony with the coming year. It is not necessary to understand everything too literally( for example, to start to kick, like a fast horse, on New Year's holiday).It is enough just to slightly balance the space surrounding you with the requirements of the universe, fixed in the eastern calendar.
The easiest way to deal with color. Blue-green tones in clothes will be an excellent way to show Horse your indifference to her and win her favor on New Year's Eve. But all the fiery shades( yellow, red, orange) will have to be forgotten, because the element of Fire is weakening for the Tree and therefore - undesirable on New Year's holiday.
In addition, the green color( foliage color) has long been recognized as soothing and very pleasing to the eye of a person. Use it in your daily environment is better not only in the year of the Wooden Horse, but at any other time. If desired, you can rely on the teachings of feng shui, which allows you to correct the space around you and achieve in it a relative harmony. However, do not forget that even in the year of Wooden Lloshadi, it makes no sense to give explicit preference to this particular element, since this can lead not to the desired result, but to the internal conflict of space.
In principle, the color of the horse's year will depend not only on your New Year attire, but on the festive decoration itself. Elements of the tree on the nature and have a Christmas tree, and a variety of wooden figurines( horses).In addition, luck can bring not only the horse itself( a living symbol of the year for the New Year holiday you are unlikely to invite), but its horseshoe.
By the way, since ancient times the horseshoe has been considered a talisman of luck and wealth. And in the coming New Year to give a beautiful real horseshoe or its wooden analog( decorated with a blue-green painting), as they say, the very fate tells. Especially if you make a gift sincerely and with a pure heart. But just immediately warn the owners that from how you hang the horseshoe above the door and will depend on its "performance".So the ends of the horseshoe, directed upwards, will attract prosperity to the house. And if you fix the horseshoe on the contrary( ends down), then it will become a guard against evil forces.
