His Tweet was interesting because of the reason why he expressed sympathy for Trump: he stated that he and Trump "are both Dragon Energy".
This was a bit of an amusing surprise for me to read. And it's very likely that Kanye did not intend to refer (at least not consciously) to the ideas of the School of Yin and Yang or to Qi Gong terminology of the I Ching. But it leads to an amusing question: let's assume that IS what he meant... is he right? Do Kanye West and Donald Trump both have "dragon energy"?
In the terminology of Qi, different forms of Yin and Yang have traditional associations to different animals.
So for example, the Mare is associated with the World trigram, the three Yin lines.
The Moon trigram with it's "fat middle" is associated to the boar. The Air/Wind trigram to the Tiger, with it's one-yin-line tail at the end of it's two yang-line body.
And the Heaven Trigram is the Dragon. The power of great Yang.
So if someone is full of "dragon energy" what would that say about them? Well, it is:
-Extremely forceful
-Creative
-Filled with confidence
-Prone to risk-taking
-Potentially arrogant
-Defiant of any opposition to their goals
-Unconcerned with blame or praise from others
-Unwilling to show fear or uncertainty
-Extremely effective at accomplishing their goals
-Boastful
-Brave
-Extremely determined in their beliefs
-Aggressive
-Rarely open to criticism
-Regal
-Ambitious to ascend in life
-Strong, and also concerned with the appearance of strength
-Assertive
-Favoring action over contemplation
-Favoring reason over feelings
-Unwilling to submit/surrender to anyone
-Insistent on their own self-expression
-A lover of life and life's pleasures
-A dreamer
-Interested in the Big Picture, less interested in minor details
-Tending toward intense relationships, demanding loyalty
-Protective of family and loved ones
-Tend to be spiritual but not conventionally spiritual
Dragon energy in this form is all Yang and no Yin, so unless it is counterbalanced by Yin people or Yin cultivation, it will tend to cause disharmony and instability.
So, what do you think? Does it sound, based on what Dragon Energy is, that Kanye and Trump both have it?
And if so, is that a good thing?
