Congratulations! Well done.

I think that is what happens when men get old though I thought it was spelled differently.

Perhaps what we need is a water horse to balance and calm things down a bit.

I’ve been doing his stuff awhile (longer and more in depth than anyone here has practiced his stuff based on the comments) and I think it’s great. I like that it is so physical and I like his irreverence and that I can do it online but also in person. . I think making things light actually helps when the practices can be very intense energetically. Sure he says things that trigger people (me included) but I think developing the ability to deal with and respond to people with different opinions and perspectives is part of the path. I think there is also some method to his madness as he wants his students to develop into independent practitioners not just yes men and yes women dependent on the teacher . Also I am definitely from a different generation with a different perspective than his. However his politeness, ,kindness and humility translate well for me. My background was both external and internal martial arts then yoga and now back to neigong and IMA with Lotus Nei Gong. I actually chose him because what he teaches was what my body was already showing me in martial arts, yoga and then in qi gong (e.g flying Pheonix, Kunlun, Kwan yin magnetic, and others) before I started or really had any awareness of his program. I don’t think I would have tried it if this was not for my experience with the energetics of these other practices. When I tried Damo’s practices it seemed like my body already knew the cues and internal connections that he described. . Now I can clearly see what and how things have changed as a result of the practices. Also his explanations are quite thorough and he shares things that aren’t available in any texts I’ve seen and I’ve read a fair bit and been involved in these practices most of my life. It’s also humbling for me to continually realize how much I don’t know. At this rate I will soon know nothing at all..lol. However i think if he turns you off then I agree it’s better to find something else. Just felt I needed to be honest about my experience rather lurking at the periphery of the discussion. Hope my comments are useful.

I think your fire horse looks good. Here is one that includes the heart/mind fire, giving it a bit of alchemical flavor. Not sure this fits the astrological view but it’s a good reminder to not to be emotionally carried away by the changes the year brings. Horse is surrounded by fire but is still pretty chill for a horse surrounded by fire.
