Fire Rooster 1957 A Fire Rooster’s image is his most prized possession. He spends an inordinate amount of time trying to look good. To others he may appear vain. He flaunts a dramatic style, yet he is a brilliant social organizer who loves to plan parties and gatherings. Fire Cocks do have a tendency to be bossy and this combined with their innate bluntness often causes hurt feelings and bruised egos with friends and co-workers. In spite of these challenges these Roosters make great leaders, always creative, diligent and motivated. In matters of Love the Rooster fares best with the Ox, Snake and occasionally the Dragon. Expect conflict with the Rat, Tiger, Rabbit, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, and other Roosters. The Dog will bore you The Sheep requires lots of compromise. Wood signs will feed Fire, Water Signs will quench their heat. Earth signs will be created by Fire, Metal Signs will be melted by Fire. With just these few simple concepts the Fire Cock can seek the partner of their greatest compatibility In short marry a Wood Oxen or Snake Avoid the Water Rat. Roosters are generally pretty black or white when it comes to their feelings. They like you, or they don’t, / nothing in between. Vocal with opinions and ideas, Roosters can be tight-lipped about their personal emotions and feelings. They don’t wear their hearts on their sleeves. They are intensely private people who never kiss and tell. Roosters are not easy to live with. If you can get past their bossy, obstinate, my way or no way exterior, you find a wonderfully romantic, caring individual hidden beneath. Heart of solid gold and they genuinely care about their family and friends as much as they care about themselves. Not suited for a sensitive partner, their candor and wit can be humiliating many times. Roosters are often highly critical of their partners, expecting too much of them. / Roosters need a stable companion, someone who can take everything he dishes out. He needs someone who will stand up to him and his mincing words and quickly put him in place when need be. Roosters need partners who will deflate them when they are too high on themselves and at the same time tolerate their constant boasting. The Chinese lunar calendar is considered to be the longest chronological record of time, dating back to 2637 BC when the zodiac was first introduced. Each Chinese lunar year is represented by an animal sign. Lord Buddha realizing he was about to reach the final level of enlightenment requested a meeting with all the animals of the world so he could bless them. Only twelve animals responded. In recognition of their devotion, Lord Buddha then named each year of the twelve-year cycle in their honor. Each year is named according to the order in which the animals appeared before him. For centuries this system of five basic elements and twelve personality types has been used to help compatible couples find happiness and marital bliss. In the past matching was usually done by a village matchmaker. It is my intention to combine this ancient system of finding love with the modern internet. Millions of people use internet matchmaking sites only to find matches half way around the world. For a fraction of the price, you can buy your personalizes Chinese astrology shirt and the shirts of those best suited for you and start to wear them. Who knows a Fire Rabbit may just walk up to you and say “I have been looking for you all my life” Or you may be wearing a Water Tiger shirt and someone absolutely perfect says, “Hey that’s my sign” So let my grand social experiment begin.

Earth Ox 1949 and 2009 Earth Oxen are the most reliable and diligent of all the Oxen. Earth Oxen have few negative characteristics. These Oxen have good judgment, and an understanding of successful financial dealings. Other people look up to Earth Oxen in part due to their reliability, sincerity and modest ambitions. They can be relied upon to tackle any workload when it becomes too overbearing for others. They are loyal and compassionate with family and friends. As might be expected those born under the influence of the Ox are usually fortunate to be stable and persevering. The Ox is a tolerant person with strong character. Not many people could equal the resolution and fearlessness the Ox exhibits when engaged in a task or an objective. This great creature created our civilization by plowing the soil day after day, and as such it is not unusual to find Ox people laboring through their daily responsibilities either at work or at home without complaint or gripe. Oxen know they will only succeed through hard work and sustained effort and find no truth or benefit in concocting get-rich-quick schemes. Ox years are second in Chinese astrological sequence and recur every twelve years. Though the starting day of the year may vary the majority of people born in the years 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997 and 2009 are Ox people. Pragmatic and down-to-earth, Ox people are motivated to work hard and are known to have no respect for lazy or careless people. They can be easily trusted and put trust in others; they are not dependent on friends and family and find answers or solutions to problems. The rarely ask other people for help or guidance. The rest of us however, can, without a doubt rely on Oxen, who are always honest and meticulous about their responsibilities. They do not feel the need for many distant or causal friendships. They value the strong bonds they share with their partners and families, and often make close friends that last a lifetime. Initially open-minded, Ox people make an informed decision about something, and rarely change it. Some see this defining characteristic as obstinacy, but it is actually the way an Ox learns to be strong, brave and straightforward. It is the way the Ox generally approaches tasks and responsibilities and in the process learns to be reliable for others. Oxen are more comfortable with the well-known as opposed to the unfamiliar. Beneath their unpretentious, tranquil exterior lies a heart of gold and a motivation to prosper. The Chinese name for Ox is NIU, the sign of industry. January is the month of the ox and as such the Western astrological counterpart is Capricorn. The Ox is obstinate, prone to pouting, truthful, motivated, friendly, apathetic, and genuine but usually quick-tempered Earth will absorb Water signs and be nourished. Earth will bear Metal signs. Fire signs create Earth, and Wood signs part Earth. With just these few simple concepts the Earth Ox can seek the partner of their greatest compatibility In matters of Love Oxen fare best with the Rabbit, Rat, Snake, Pig and Rooster. Avoid the Dragon, Tiger, Sheep and Dog. Other Oxen will bore you. In short marry a Water Rabbit, Rat or Snake Avoid the Wood Sheep. Oxen dislike idle banter. They don’t usually have fun at parties and don’t usually have extended friendship circles. They are not very sociable and prefer to spend their time at home with their families. An Ox in love, does not affirm his feelings verbally, they are much more likely to show you how they feel. An Ox takes a great deal of time to ensure you are the right match for them. The main reason for this is Oxen hate change, and search diligently for someone who is ready to embark upon a stable marriage. Oxen never rush into anything and are never flirtatious people. When committed to you they will be faithful and expect the same from their partner. As unbelievable as it seems, many Oxen marriages fall apart after a couple of years. This is often because the Ox is too dominant and inflexible. Oxen will blame everyone but themselves for the failure. Those that do avoid this pitfall can build and maintain a close-knit family. Given this happier scenario Oxen will be completely devoted to the household. Oxen are strong, silent, reliable people who sometimes take for granted that their relationship is a partnership. Others may find them stubborn and overbearing. The Chinese lunar calendar is considered to be the longest chronological record of time, dating back to 2637 BC when the zodiac was first introduced.

Water Tiger 1962 The Water Tiger is a soothing and tranquil breed. Unlike most Tigers they have the ability to consider feelings and ideas from other people. This empathy makes them quite sensible and understanding. Fire Tigers are also born with a great intuitive power. They have excellent judgment and make accurate assessments of most situations. This Tiger is a bit indecisive, compared to other cats. It stems from their habit of watching and waiting before leaping. Water Tigers need to guard against excessive sleeping or daydreaming. This passive behavior will prohibit them from achieving the goals they initially set out to accomplish. No doubt about it Tigers are incredibly sexy people, beautiful and sensually romantic. Creative and spontaneous lovers they never lose their creative spark or flare for an evening of passion. Their partner is always exposed to a hint of danger and the curiosity of the unknown. A Tiger once committed will want to dominate and lead you. This natural nurturing mechanism if left unchecked will lead to complete control. This is one controlling and negative effect a Tiger can have on their partner, as opposed to the myriad of positive elements they bring to a relationship, trust, passion, politeness and spontaneity to name only a few. Tigers love excitement and require a partner who can keep up with all they want to see and do. The potential partner for a Tiger must be able to stand the random mood swings, the ups and downs, the good with the bad. Metal signs will collect Water; Water Signs will nourish Wood signs and quench Fire Signs. Water signs will be absorbed by Earth signs. With just these few simple concepts the Water Sheep can seek the partner of their greatest compatibility In matters of love Tigers fare best with the Horse, Dog and Pig.. Avoid the Monkey, Snake and Ox.. In short marry a Metal Horse and avoid the Fire Ox. To the Chinese the Tiger is said to be lucky, vivid, lively and engaging. Renowned for their incredible bravery and willingness to engage in battle it is often wondered if a Tiger is so brave because he is so lucky. It is said that having a Tiger in the house is the very best protection against the evils of fire and burglary. The Year of the Tiger is the third in the Chinese astrological cycle following the Year of the Ox and recurs every twelfth year. Though the starting day of the year may vary the majority of people born in the years 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986 and 1998 are Tigers Tigers do not find worth in power or money. Completely honest about what they feel they expect the same of you. They seek approval from peers and family. Because of their charming personalities Tigers are usually well liked. Failing at a given task or being unproductive in personal or professional life can cause a Tiger to experience a depression. Even more damaging is criticism from loved ones. Lke all felines, Tigers land on their feet, ready for their next act in life, pursuing it with unyielding energy and hunting to perfection. Tigers are relentlessly competitive – they cannot pass up a challenge, particularly if honor is at stake, or if protecting those they love. Tigers are unpredictable and it is fatal to underestimate their reactions. Even when appearing calm they may pounce without a moment’s warning. Always natural leaders, they have a strong sense of their own dignity, and when finding themselves members of the rank and file they can be stubborn and obstinate. In positions of power they are difficult though stimulating bosses. Tigers are intelligent, alert, and farsighted. Formidable enemies they are good strategists and tacticians always with a hidden agenda. Their only apparent weakness is they can risk their luck too often, and have great difficulty keeping their restless nature under control. More often than not their tactics pay off in life. The Chinese name for the Tiger is HU, the sign of courage. February is the month of the Tiger and as such the Western astrological counterpart is Aquarius. Tigers are known for courage, vehemence, self-Reliance, friendliness, hopefulness and resilience. Their weakness is vanity and a disregard for others.

Bardi ‘Saltwater’ people at England’s most famous sacred site Stonehenge: Photo: © Julian Andrews. Joorr is a word used by the Bardi ‘Saltwater’ people meaning snake. The Bardi people are from the Dampier Peninsula situated around 200 kilometres north-east of Broome, Western Australia.

Oil on canvas 24” X 24”. Completed April 2008. www.RainbowPathArtStudio.com “All living beings have the Buddha nature and can become Buddhas” / – Buddha Buddha Within illustrates the story of personal awakening. My understanding of the personal awakening process is that when undergoing the final awakening stage, the kundalini (rainbow serpent) becomes an intense fire (red/orange beside the tree trunk) shooting through the spine engulfing the body. The energy (green vortexes) required is enormous. As the kundalini reaches the crown chakra, it fully opens and all earthly limitations drop away. This being is no longer tied to a religion or faith but now embraces them all as represented by the sacred symbols in the tree. The consciousness now resides in the higher self and is one with the universe and all that is. When the transformation is complete sonic waves (the four vertical crystalline waves) travel out into the universe to let all of creation know of the grace that has taken place. All life is naturally drawn to the radiant and divine being that has become pure Buddha consciousness (centre). At each of the chakra points on the Buddha is a Swarovsky crystal in the relevant chakra colour. Crystal magnifies the properties of the chakra energy. / Buddha Within is divided into four quadrants (earth, fire, water, air) and the five elements including precious metals (bottom corners). The red veins dividing the quadrants represent the lower dimension (inner earth). The higher dimension is represented by the white equilateral triangle. If you look closely, you can see the texture of the underlying branches in the tree. These were meticulous painted before adding the covering of leaves. The tree must be complete in the physical, in order to emit the complete energy of the life form. Imbibed in the painting is sand from a sand mandala created by Gyuto Monks. They had spent a week painstakingly building an exquisite sand mandala. Upon its completion the mandala was ceremonially deconstructed and the sand poured into the local river for healing, accompanied by prayer and the blasting of Tibetan ceremonial horns. Some of the sand is held back and distributed to those who attend the ceremony: it holds sacred healing properties. I used some of the sand from this mandala, mixing it in the purple paint used for the crown charka encircling the white triangle and Buddha. Buddha Within is the third in a series and preceded by The Dream and The Awakening.

Snake River Canyon is a large canyon formed by the Snake River in the Magic Valley region of southern Idaho. It is well known as the site of an unsuccessful 1974 attempt by Evel Knievel, to jump it in the Skycycle X-2. In the past it was generally believed the Snake River Canyon was created by a cataclysmic flooding of Lake Bonneville approximately 14,000 years ago. However, geologists now believe that while the canyon was shaped by the flood, its basic structure predated it.
