AS the clock strikes midnight and the calendar page turns, we stand on the verge of a brand-new year, full of unimaginable possibilities and limitless potential.
The transfer from one year to the next is more than just a change in dates; it represents a renewal of hope, an opportunity for personal growth, and a chance to alter our futures.
The New Year is viewed as a blank canvas on which everybody can paint a bright tapestry of their hopes, desires, and resolutions for the next year.
The Power of Luck
Aside from that, gratitude is a tremendous magnet for good fortune. We build a mindset that attracts positivity by appreciating the current moment and embracing the gifts in our lives.
Gratitude changes our attention from what is lacking to what is abundant, creating an environment that encourages the flow of good fortune. Different civilizations around the world have different rituals and ideas about how to greet the New Year.
These habits, which range from eating specific foods for good luck to participating in rituals intended at warding off negativity, are evidence of the human urge to affect fate.
While some may reject these activities as mere superstitions, they frequently serve as a reminder of the power that intention and belief have in constructing our lives. This is a big topic for Master Hanz Cua, a Feng Shui expert.
“Based on individual zodiac sign, kasi kapag ka individual na talaga yan, kailangan na talaga ng astrology dyan, so in-depth talaga yan, so kailangan natin makuha based sa year, sa month, tyaka sa hour mo,” he said.
“Ano ang laki element mo? Saan ka ba talaga haharap? Ano ang lucky day mo? Anong lucky month mo? Anong mga lucky compatible sayo? Sino mga lucky compatible sayo?”
Master Hanz’s personal advice
Apart from the things we must do as we begin the new year, Master Hanz also mentioned some of the things that individuals, whether working or studying, should learn to do.
“Iwasan natin ang negative thinking kasi Feng Shui may kinalaman sa, ano pa rin, we call the universe pa rin kung una pa lang nabasa mo na puro negative kana pano ba maging negative, puro ka bash, puro ka reklamo,” he went on to say.
Furthermore, the feng shui expert emphasized the habit of bringing in a more positive enegery within a workplace and positively altering their mental aspects when heading in for work.
“Learn to love what you are doing, kung ano ginagawa mo, kung paano mo ina-appreciate ginagawa mo. Kapag nagtrabaho, always give 100% sa ginagawa mo,” he highlighted.
“We learn to appreciate dahil hindi lahat meron. Siguro kung mga bata pa tayo, we’ll learn to appreciate and learn to love our work. Pano ba yung learn to love to our work? Pag may pinatrabaho si boss, we give our 100%,” he continued.
Master Hanz: Do not rely on signs
Personal autonomy and self-determination can be diminished depending on one’s zodiac sign. Belief in astrological influences determining one’s fate can lead to lethargy and a lack of initiative.
Individuals must realize their potential to mold their own fates by deliberate choices and actions, rather than attributing everything to celestial body alignment.
“Well, I believe na ang success natin ay which is talagang personal effort is malaking chance, mas malaki ang percentage. The feng shui or the zodiac sign or lucky charm are ⅓ lang, kumbaga maliit na percentage lang sa buhay natin,” said Cua.
“Lagi natin nasasabi ‘no, ang buhay natin na sa tao ang gawa, nasa diyos ang awa. So, astrology, horoscope, feng shui, mga lucky charms might help you,” Cua said in the interview.
However, in order to get ultimate luck or success, you must first establish a set of goals that you will work towards in order to achieve success. It is necessary for us to have our own hard work and determination in order to achieve success.
While astrology and zodiac signs can be interesting and serve as a source of self-reflection, they must be approached critically.
It is best to mix astrological curiosity with a sensible and educated perspective, acknowledging that personal growth and contentment come from a deeper awareness of oneself and active involvement with life’s intricacies.
While the unpredictability of the future can be intimidating, the start of a new year allows us to go into the unknown with optimism and purpose.
May our resolutions, cultural rituals, adaptability, positive outlook, and thankfulness serve as lighthouses directing us toward a year filled with serendipitous moments and important experiences as we navigate the uncertain waters of the next months. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
