July 2023 is the month of the Earth Goat (Ji Wei 己未) This is one of the months this year that show us how our personal energy interacts with the element of Yin Earth. This pure earth pillar can be nurturing & you may find you feel more stable and "grounded". A bit of a relief from the very prominent and dominate element of fire that governs the season of Summer.
Earth Goat in BaZi- The Earth Goat itself sits on the "friend" star meaning both the "heavenly stem" (the element that sits on top) & earth branch (zodiac sign) are the same element. This makes this born under the sign of Earth Goat friendly, agreeable, likable and easily able to adapt to different environments. You can fit in with a crowd and tend to have close friends that are very similar to you, or you may pick up others mannerisms without knowing it. You are also known as the nurturing or supportive friend.
Feng Shui Focus: Be Nurturing
The symbolism of the Earth element can be looked at as a time for nuturing and caring. Compassion goes a long way and this month can be a time where you focus on how you can meet needs. This can come in the form of lending a listening ear, holding space or volunteering. Other prefer to help by donating money or suppiles, but this energy is more along the lines of emotional support. Maybe it's you that needs nuturing but don't feel like you have support, particularly maternal support.
Remember that people that don't have to be relate to be considered "family." Also, doing thatings that nuture your soul like taking a solo trip, or playing kid game like tag, hide and seek or swinging at the park help heal your inner child. Treating yourself to icecteam or a treat is always recomended too.

Animal Signs and Astrology:
How will this energy impact me?
This energy impacts you depending on where it falls in your natal chart, remember you have 4 animal or zodiac signs. Take note of where the animal sign falls and that is the area it has potential to impact.
Year: Social circle, friends and community
Month: Career, or parental relationships
Day: Health, relationship
Hour: Thoughts, feelings, emotions, relationship with children
Grand Duke
Goat : Anytime an animal sign that is in your natal chart is present for the year/month, it can feel more stressful as you feel like you're more visible or "seen". The energy thats with the goat will turn any negative events Into a positive outcome. The presence of "sky happiness "star may mean theres a possibly of celebration & happy events. Enjoy!
Zodiac Combinations & Interaction-
Some of the Zodiac signs pair together to make special combinations. These combinations make an element that dominates the energy.
Combine-
Pig & Rabbit: Unlike some combinations the energy of this trio completely transforms the Goat from earth, into WOOD. Growth, self awareness & expansion are the theme when this combination takes place, also making it a good time to take up a new field of study or learn something new.
Harmony-
Horse: The Horse combing with Goat also makes fire but I’ve heard it called the “Sun & the Moon”. This combination is said to bring helpful people, so don't be afraid to ask for help when needed. If you needed help troubleshooting or finding a solution to a problem, this may be a good month to find help & solutions may present themselves.
Seasonal-
These are the animal signs that make up the season of Summer (Snake, Horse, Goat). All 3 animal signs should be present to form combination to make the element of Fire.
I've recently came to understanding the importance of seasonal combinations in a natal chart. The presence of this combination has the potential to make you very strong, show wealth opportunity etc.
Snake, Horse: The presence of Horse, Snake or both in your natal chart mean you can take advantage of this seasonal combination especially if you benefit from the element of fire. The fire is really taking over in this scenario. It can however lead to positive changes and financial gain especially if fire is your wealth element.
Clash:
The CLASH animal sign! This is the animal sign that directly opposes the governing energy.
Ox: The Ox zodiac may experience a clash this month, clashing energy signals a changes. You can make the change to take away from the clash. Activating the “Rat” N 2 in your home can help with this clashing energy.
