upcoming festival in
The year of the Water Rabbit
This year invites us powerfully to join with others and create together the most beautiful world our heArt can dream of.
How does the Water Rabbit energy invite co-creativity?
BE
instead of
BE-cause
Let’s look at what is the definition of Cause: a person or thing that gives rise to an action, phenomenon, or condition.
How often do we say, I did this because……leaving the responsibility (and with it the power) of whatever happens to another person or thing. The more we dwell in the state of BE-Cause and less power we have to create the life we want.
Causes can be many, sometimes other people, more often “things” from the past (mostly traumas) that we have rejected as part of ourselves and that govern our actions from the shadow.
The year of the Water Rabbit is a direct invitation to take the Causes out of the middle of our lives and transform from reaCtor to Creator. The moment in which I free myself from the “box” of my traumas, I became fully available to co-creation.
BE
Beauty
Rabbit invites the appreciation of art and pleasure. Creating comfortable places to be together, rediscover the magnificent power of the collective and allow creativity to flow and manifest itself in unimaginable acts of beauty, wisdom and care.
As Sarah Yip says “The answer to war isn’t peace. It’s creativity.” and the Water Rabbit year 兔年 invites us to leap with faith into the creative stream, and ride free from the inner bondage of cultural colonization.
Rabbit energy is gentle and vulnerable, filled with charm and able to act with unexpected speed and flexibility, and with the conjunction with Water it manifests endless creativity!
BE
With
In general, the Year of the Rabbit encourages cordiality and partnerships, and if disputes arise, diplomacy. There might be many options and like in the rabbit’s burrow, it is important this year to have multiple exit points and not get too attached to a specific path. This is a year to have more than one plan B—and unfold decisions in the context of continued social interactions.
The water element highlights inner wisdom and trust of instincts, hence the year is expected to be a harmonious year. Also enhances our psychic ability, diplomacy and negotiation skills.
So the Water Rabbit encourages us to find collective solutions and it is a great setting for any co-creative process, like the one we are inviting you in!
