Love Poem
for my
Pink Love Dragon
by Emerald Winn
Written at age 7.
He read it at Winter Solstice Dragon Ceremony 2021
—————–
Hot mist rises from my
my Love Dragon’s nose.
It is pink, but doesn’t
smell like a rose.
[br]
Tired from loving me
all day long,
he rests his whiskers
on a pink cloud.
And snores out loud.
[br]
How I love my dragon!
He’s never angry with me.
With him inside my heart,
I feel calm and free.
[br]
Fire dragons are hot,
water dragons are cold.
Some dragons are young,
some dragons are old.
[br]
What makes MY dragon special?
His love is SO bold.
[br]
All dragons spiral
in a Yin-Yang dance.
When my dragon
twists and turns,
I begin to prance.
[br]
Love Dragon and I
soar high above.
His pink heart spews out
hot flames of love.
[br]————

“Tao is the Heart of Love”
Emerald Winn Drawing, inspired by his poem.
It took Emerald 3 months to write his poem.
His Editor (Dad) offered grammar help and a few ideas, but final word choice was entirely Emerald’s.

This 5 min. trailer is an overview of a seminar on the Yang Water Tiger Year 2022 – from multiple perspectives of Qi science.
I will teach practical Qigong methods you can use to capture the surge in sexual-creative Qi that is coming.

Chinese Astrology is part of Taoist Qi science which includes Tao Cosmology and Tao Inner Alchemy meditation (neidan gong).
Both of these involve processes that transform a person from within, in a mysterious yet impressive way.
This webinar is NOT technical astrology, NOT about making “predictions”. Rather it will give you conceptual and practical energetic skills to better navigate the present moment as it unfolds in the Yang Water Tiger Year 2022.
It will unfold differently for each person, depending on your constitution. This Yang Water Tiger Year is about the embodiment of water Qi, which involves willpower, deep feeling, wisdom-memory of the past, and the flow of sexual energy.
The Tiger is leaping wood (liver) element, which directs our sexual Qi into life projects, relationships, any area of growth WE choose.
FREE WILL rules our response to astrological cycles. The natural cycles influence but do not control us. I have found Chinese astrology very useful in identifying energtic issues that need Inner Smile, self-loving Qi cultivation.
I will demonstrate how you can integrate sexual, cultural, and spiritual Qi with a powerful CUSTOM Qigong practice you can easily do at home in a few minutes. There will be 30 minutes for Q&A and discussion at the end of the webinar.
Please register early to reserve your space!
