As the Year of the Dragon Draws to a Close …

Little Dragon Sadie … Our Snow Angel

Sadie Porcher

Born six months ago, Sadie is a Year of the Dragon baby and our newest Porcher niece. She arrived in Ohio for a Christmas visit amid a near blizzard snowfall. She became our sweet little snow angel enjoying her first winter outing.

Why is Sadie our Little Dragon Girl?

According to the Chinese Zodiac, an animal rules each of the 12 years of the Lunar calendar.  The Year of the Dragon 2012 has been a Yang Water year.  The Dragon is a strengthening Yang sign. Water favors communications, transportation and learning.  The Dragon’s bold, generous and passionate traits have been qualities throughout the year.

The Water Dragon 2012

Chinese tradition suggests that water has a calming effect on the Dragon’s sometimes overpowering temperament. The water calms the Dragon’s personality, making them more perceptive of others.

Dragons love thrilling risks and burn the candle at both ends.  Luckily, they are blessed with good health. Among the most hearty of the Animal signs, they can suffer bad health as a result of stress. Symptoms of their personalities often stem from emotional outbursts and can range from tension headaches to depression to hypertension. Dragons can remedy these problems by maintaining their cool, implementing a routine in their daily lives, and utilizing exercises such as yoga or tai kwon do that soothe the mind and spirit as well as tone the body.
