Yay, it’s time to become a swinger!
Now there’s a sentence I bet you thought I’d never say out loud or encourage you to be… ? ?
Where July was a slog, August now releases a burst of energy that you must tap into; ‘coz it’s time to be that confident swinger and swing into action!
August is Bing Shen:
- Bing is Yang Fire
- Shen is Monkey
On August 7th we began the shift out from our lows of July when we hit some dark points…
Me too ~ I’ve had to work bloody hard to kick my ass into gear!
When a Monkey swings in we feel a sense of movement, of purpose and we can see a new direction because the Monkey takes us to a higher viewpoint. You will feel this spiritually and you will feel this emotionally.
We’ve been working in the trenches most of 2021, now we rise up so we can see the 360º horizon!
This will be mesmerizing, energizing and freeing!
How do we manage August Monkey month?
We take control back.
If you felt stuck, you are no more and you know it ~ so say it out-loud and OWN it!
September brings something even more powerful forward, but let’s stay right here for a moment ok.
Craft your strategy this month and move the pieces around the board of life and test different positions.

Don’t be afraid to make a move; you won’t know until you try if someone try’s to outsmart you… And if you don’t try, you’ll never see how easily you can outsmart them.
Are you ready to let go?
I know it sounds easy… but it’s not and we’ve picked up some bad habits that we need to switch.
We’ve spent the last 18 months protecting ourselves and we’ve built a strong armour to keep out the bad stuff.
Problem with armour is that it not only keeps things away from us, it keeps us away from things…
I was enjoying a fab conversation with special peeps as we devoured the cliffhanger of the Netflix show “Stranger Things”
They viewed it one way and saw the removal of someone in the show and thought it was sad.
I saw it differently and asked them to go back and review what they ‘thought‘ they saw.
When we remove something, we make room for something new which is often exactly what we need…
First of all, you need to recognize your armour so you can begin to dismantle it.
This will be emotional, this will be tough and this will be magnificent.
How do I break free of what holds me back Sam?
You choose to break free.
Use this Monkey who brings a beacon of light to burn the cobwebs away and make your new jungle pathway.
Yes; I say jungle because life is a jungle.
Know that you need to rise up; I cannot say this enough, RISE UP and step into who you are and step forward.
You may think you cannot do this; but you can.
Grasp the Monkey’s proffered hand and hold on as he lifts you up to a new vantage point.
Look around and open your eyes to see what you’ve been missing; it’s always been there, you just didn’t see it my friends…
4 Feng Shui tips you must have!
Now let’s move into some Feng Shui and highlight two fab areas in your home for favourable outcomes this month!
- West ~ this is all about growth, connecting, partnering and expansion so use this area for important phone calls and meetings.
- Northwest ~ fast, fiesty and fun… if you dare to have a little wild sexiness… this area has it all sexed up for you, but beware a triangle amidst all the fun…
Time to balance this out, which areas are best to avoid then Sam?
- Southeast ~ not a good area to have a deep conversation as it will go awry incredibly fast my friends
- Northeast ~ potential burnout situation here, so try to avoid this area if you are not healthy.
Keep in mind, you may not be able to avoid an area I speak to ~ I get that 100%. I ask you to become aware of the energy influences and do what you can in real time ok.
Find out what secrets your Astrology holds this August!
Alrighty, let’s move into our horoscopes and see who interacts with whom!
Pop over HERE and grab some information about your birthdate and bring it back here ok!
In your birth chart, do you see a:
Tiger: Hmm… you my friend are about to change direction, so be ready to pivot on a large scale as that’s where the good stuff is! Technically known as a clash month for you, do not be afraid. Once you look an issue in the eye… you will see it for what it really is.
Pig: Super important to be aware of your surroundings this month as minor incidents can occur.. Centre yourself and focus on your needs, because if you overextend yourself for others; they’ll be ok, but you’ll hit a wall...
Snake & Tiger: Learn to move sideways and literally sidestep out of a potential bullying issue. Seek help and layer in trusted advisors for all your big decisions ~ it’s the only way you’ll move forward.
Snake: Yep, you again! This is a double whammy as part of this is about bad habits, so it’s time to create better ones! On the flip side you can make some big changes and potentially destroy something that is blocking your path because you have collaborative assistance coming forward and it’s their ideas that will overcome the bits you don’t do so well.
So what do we do now Sam?
Interesting…did you not read what I wrote above…?
You choose your:
Direction.
Action.
You.
You choose YOU.
Remember, we’ve been through a lot.
Take action to remove the armour, piece by incredible piece to reveal who you truly are.
Unleash the incredibleness that is within you and go free.
