Are you Ready For a turning point? Embracing the Yin Wood Rooster Month of September

On September 7th, we enter a powerful cosmic gateway: a total Lunar Eclipse under the Wood Rooster month in the Wood Snake year. This is not just another full moon. It’s a karmic turning point — a cosmic nudge whispering, “It’s time to evolve.”
The Rooster is not subtle. It critiques, pushes, and demands change. Paired with the Wood Snake of the year, this energy sharpens like a blade — cutting through illusions, exposing what no longer serves, and urging us to align with integrity. If you’ve been restless or sensing a shift, you’re not imagining it. This is one of those moments you’ll look back on and say, “That’s when everything began to change.”
The image of the Yin Wood Rooster pillar is Yin Wood on top, associated with the Rabbit and the Rooster, in the Branch, representing the element of Yin Metal. This represents a clash between the Rabbit and Rooster. Metal cuts Wood. Think of the image of a pen knife or scissors snipping the delicate flowers with one cut. This is a painful clash that feels like an emotional rollercoaster, feelings of betrayal, emotional turmoil and unfairness in the world.
Autumn’s Metal Energy
Autumn is governed by the Metal element, reaching its peak power in the Rooster month. Metal’s nature is inward — cool, precise, and reflective. Just as farmers gather in the harvest and we retreat indoors from the chill, Metal calls us to turn inward. This is the season for introspection and inventory:
What do you need to release before winter comes?
What inner strength can you gather now to sustain you through darker days ahead?
Where in your life is refinement or clarity needed?
The I Ching’s Hexagram 33, Retreat, guides this month’s energy. It reminds us that stepping back is not weakness but wisdom. As Yin grows stronger in autumn, it’s a time to conserve energy, retreat from unnecessary conflict, and prepare for the future. This month, the advice is clear: rest, replenish, and resource yourself fully before winter. Tend to your nervous system. A calm mind tunes into intuition, moving in harmony with universal energy. Cherish your quiet moments.
Treat stillness this month as sacred appointments with your future self-silence speaks to your soul. When your system is calm, you can hear intuition. You move with universal life force.
How This Energy May Affect You This Energy May Affect You
Your personal experience of this month depends on your BaZi chart, but here are some general notes:
Rooster: With another Rooster showing up, this is self punishment. Watch for self-sabotage. Choose discernment over drama. Watch your own actions.
Dog: Energy feels tense. Move with caution and avoid snap judgments. More of an emotional harm.
Snake, Ox, Dragon: Opportunities and momentum are on your side. Ask for help and act — rewards will follow.
Rat: Trust issues may rise. Simplify, observe, and avoid excess.
Rabbit: You’re in direct clash with Rooster energy. Embrace this as a chance for conscious transformation.
Other signs: The shifts are gentler, but reflection and preparation are still key.
The Invitation of This Month
While the Rooster’s energy may highlight flaws and pressure us to “fix,” it is also an invitation to soften, forgive, and redirect our energy into constructive growth. Remember: every challenge is shaping you into who you are becoming. The question is — will you move forward with fear, or with an open heart?
This isn’t about fear. It’s about clarity. The more you release what no longer serves, the lighter and freer you’ll feel.
