Tomorrow 18th February is the first day of the first month of the Lunar New Year. On this New Year eve wishing you a very happy and prosperous Kalachakra Tantra Year 2899 of the “Male Fire-Horse”!
༄༅། །དུས་འཁོར་རྒྱུད་ལུགས་ ༢༨༩༩ རབ་གནས་མེ་ཕོ་རྟ་ལོའི་གནམ་ལོ་གསར་ཚེས་ཀྱི་དགའ་སྟོན་ལ་བཀྲ་ཤིས་བདེ་ལེགས་ཞུ། །
With some stunning artworks (I only saw for the first time today) by HH 12th Khenting Tai Situpa (more on that soon !).
The Fire-Horse is known for its energy, passion, vitality, freedom, bravery and movement. The Year of the Fire Horse in 2026 is a time for bold moves, big changes, and powerful new beginnings. It is a rare zodiac combination seen only once in 60 years, and it is associated with the energy and independence of the Horse, enhanced by the Fire element. This year is seen as a time to take action and not hold back.
A few days before Losar, I took some bold and brave (and pretty wild) action (heavily magnetised by the guru, yidam and Dharma protectors) and grateful I did! Galloping wild like a horse across air and land to be where the heart beckons. In time for one of the most magnificent and “old school” Vajrayana Mahakala/Mahakali rituals I have ever heard and seen in my life! More on that to come soon too….
Music? Wild Horses by the Rolling Stones, Wildflower Wildfire by Lana Del Rey , Who’s Going to Ride your Wild Horses by U2, Horses by Patti Smith, and Live Like Horses by Elton John. “Wild horses couldn’t drag me away…”
