2024 Wood Dragon Year by Susan Levitt

Magical, mystical, and magnificent Dragon is the most powerful sign of the Chinese zodiac. The dragon symbolizes power, strength, and good fortune and represents royalty (the Emperor), wisdom, and prosperity. Therefore, a Dragon year brings good fortune, power, passion, and new opportunities. Anticipate a year that is exciting, creative, and transformational.

Dragon Year is an excellent time to start a business, expand a business, get married, have a child, or travel the world. Risk taking and forceful pursuit of goals yield results that can be extreme: undreamed of success or an unrealistic fantasy that crashes. Either way, life’s pace is fast, dynamic, and anything can happen in a Dragon year.

On a planetary level, expect extreme earth changes such as earthquakes, tidal waves, and volcanic eruptions. And extremes in stock markets, fluctuation of prices, and financial power struggles.

Those born in Dragon years (1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024) are natural leaders. Independent Dragons love adventure and freedom, and want to make their mark on the world. Dragons are strong and brave, and cannot be stopped once they have a clear direction. But Dragon can be a dreamer. Inspiration needs to be combined with concrete action, not leaving the details to others.

The Element Wood

2024 is the year of the Wood Dragon. The element Wood is like a plant growing in springtime, making this Wood year a time for quick growth and development. There can be sudden breakthroughs and fast changes of fortune. Dragon can change size from a tiny silkworm, then grow large enough to fill the sky.

This can be your year of reinvention. When you step into the spotlight in Dragon year, you will be looked at. So dress for success. Looks and image matter in a Dragon year. Wear jewelry! Images will be invented, including massive development in AI (Artificial Intelligence).

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the element Wood rules the liver and gall bladder. Watch out to not drink too much alcohol. Dragon likes a grand time, and is always up for a celebration. Wood Dragon grandiosity can be overwhelming for milder Yin astrology signs such as Rabbit and Sheep.

Spring is the strongest season in a Dragon year. The best months are April, August, September, and December. The element Wood empowers Fire Dragon born in 1976 and Wood Dragon born in 1964. Dragon is most compatible with Dragon, Rat, Snake, and Monkey.
