[:it]Siamo nel 2020 ed è ufficialmente scoccata l’ora dell’anno del topo. Vi siete mai chiesti perchè in Giappone, allo scoccare di ogni nuovo anno, viene annunciato il nome di un animale? Ad esempio “l’anno del montone” o “l’anno del bue” e così via?

Questa usanza prende origine dallo zodiaco cinese, che diversamente dalla nostra tradizione, non si basa sul mese di nascita, ma bensì sull’anno! Perciò ad ogni anno corrisponde uno dei 12 animali dell’oroscopo: Topo, bue, tigre, coniglio, drago, serpente, cavallo, montone, scimmia, gallo, cane e cinghiale.

L’astrologia ha sempre affascinato tutti, anche i più scettici. Il 2020 è l’anno del Topo, il primo dei 12 segni, caratterizzato dalla positività e dall’energia. Infatti, se la sua influenza sarà quella promessa, questo nuovo anno dovrebbe vedere l’evoluzione o l’avvio di nuovi progetti, promettendo succosi frutti a coloro che lavorano duramente.
Inoltre, famose astrologhe come Jessica Adams e Cathryn Moe affermano che ci aspettano 366 giorni in cui sarà “l’unione a fare la forza”. In questo nuovo anno, nessuno dovrebbe affrontare le grandi sfide da solo, ma unirsi per raggiungere l’obiettivo. Di conseguenza “condivisione di potere” sarà una delle parole chiave.

Potremmo assistere ad un processo evolutivo su scala mondiale, in cui le persone potrebbero arrivare a comprendersi e collaborare per il bene collettivo. Questo avrebbe grandi ripercussioni positive sul piano sociale.

Il topo rappresenta quella parte della psiche più oscura in cui il vero “io” si esprime. Cadranno le maschere che fino ad ora ci hanno circondato. Questo comporterebbe una maggiore compassione e comprensione anche verso il nostro stesso Pianeta (ci basti pensare alla lotta per cambiamenti climatici).

Una nuova energia dentro di noi libererà tutta la sua potenza. E voi? Siete pronti ad affrontare questa rivoluzione regalata dall’anno del topo?[:en]We are in 2020 and the time of the year of the rat has officially struck. Have you ever wondered why in Japan, at the stroke of each new year, the name of an animal is announced? For example “the year of the ram” or “the year of the ox” and so on?

This custom originates from the Chinese zodiac, which unlike our tradition, is not based on the month of birth, but on the year! Therefore, each year corresponds to one of the 12 animals of the horoscope: rat, ox, tiger, hare, dragon, serpent, horse, ram, monkey, bird, dog and boar.

Astrology has always fascinated everyone, even the most scepticals. 2020 is the year of the Rat, the first of the 12 signs, characterized by positivity and energy. In fact, if its influence will be that promised, this new year should see the evolution or start of new projects, promising juicy fruits for those who work hard.
In addition, famous astrologers such as Jessica Adams and Cathryn Moe say that 366 days await us in which “the union will be a strength”. In this new year, nobody should face big challenges alone but join together to achieve a goal. Consequently, “sharing of power” will be one of the keywords.

We could witness an evolutionary process on a global scale, in which people could come to understand each other and collaborate for the collective good. This would have great positive social consequences.

The rat represents that part of the darker psyche where the true “I” expresses itself. The masks that have surrounded us so far will fall. This would lead to greater compassion and understanding even towards our own Planet (just think of the fight for climate change).

New energy within us will release all its power. And you? Are you ready to face this revolution given by the year of the rat?[:ja]We are in 2020 and the time of the year of the rat has officially struck.
