Happy New Year! It is the year of the Ox in Chinese astrology and the ox is the symbol of material abundance and wealth. It is a great year to concentrate on building material wealth. (Very interesting, considering the world economy.) In Yoga, there is no shame in the pursuit of material wealth. Financial security is helpful in providing the foundation necessary to pursue spiritual wealth and growth......hard to meditate when the rent is due.
