Everyone needs a Destruction Day every once in a while. The name itself sounds a little harsh, but destruction can be emotionally healing because it gives you a chance to regain control, especially when you feel like your life has become a hot mess. Rat energy brings out your need for order, so Friday is perfect for a therapeutic cleaning session. Wood is about new beginnings, an energy that only comes a few times a month in Chinese astrology, and it's an important one for these animal signs.
1. Rat
Design: YourTango
You really want to be creative this time of year, Rat. You've got a few ideas about how you want to rearrange furniture or paint the walls to add new energy. Money has been tight, so it's not like you can just do what you have in mind.
Times have been hard, but that is about to end on June 19. You know that one way to do what you want to do is to sell items you no longer use. It ends up being pretty easy for you to do online. You declutter and get some cash. The next thing you know, you're on your way to making your place pretty and as whimsical as you want it to be.
2. Dragon
Design: YourTango
You've held on to photos and other memories of a past relationship. You don't mind walking down memory lane, but now it's starting to feel disruptive. You realize that you struggle to fully move forward in a new relationship if you have even a tiny foot in your past with someone else, even though you are emotionally over them.
On June 19, a little healing ritual makes you feel better. It's as easy as deleting photos on your phone or sending them to the cloud to free up space without losing them forever. You're clearing old energy to make room for the new. Hard times are no longer there to haunt you, Dragon. You're moving forward free and clear.
3. Snake
Design: YourTango
Sadly, you've had to learn from hardships. It's not that you mind the experience. You learned your life's lesson and feel pretty good about the outcome. However, you still have things in the past that connect to the moment you're in now. You realize that there are things that you have to cut ties with cleanly.
You want to be intentional and own your feelings, Snake. On June 19, your intuition is strong. When you feel super emotionally uncomfortable, you know when to distance yourself from a problem and how to move closer toward things that give you what you need.
4. Rooster
Design: YourTango
You have something you need to do, Rooster, but running errands feels a little exhausting on June 19. When you originally planned your day, you thought you would feel very different. But on Friday, you realize that you aren't emotionally where you want to be.
You would do much better to reschedule and focus on your mental health. It's not typical of you to completely change your plan for the day. You don't like to cancel on people. But it seems like the right thing to do right now. So, you're going to do it for yourself.
