雨水 (Yǔ shuǐ) Rain
DEAN-ip on 19 and 20 February 2024

Topic: „The living water flows"
Yǔ shuǐ - Completely pure energy
“Yǔ shuǐ is something that comes from heaven to help us.
Of course, we have to develop our feeling for it,
build up this energy and use it to help us grow.
This is how energy can come back into harmony
and regulate this confusion.”
Master Dean Li
At ip with the Solarterms, we get to know nature better and better. When we talk about nature, we first think of the nature around us. We can learn something about our inner nature from it. Our inner nature operates according to the same principles as we perceive on the outside. For example, there is the cycle of water in the world. From the spring to the ocean, from the raindrop to the river. Water is also constantly flowing within us. Without water, there is no life.
Yǔ shuǐ, ⾬⽔, is the second solar term of the year. Translated, this name means „rainwater”.
“Yǔ shuǐ is a very pure energy,
a pure feminine energy. Shuǐ is feminine. Water.”
Master Dean Li
There are various forms in which water plays a role on earth, for example as water that springs from the depths of the earth. Yǔ shuǐ is about the water that comes to us from the sky. Normally, something that comes directly from the sky is completely pure and clean. You could even drink the clear rainwater. However, there is a disturbance due to the polluted air.
“Only when the problems are added by the air, then Yǔ shuǐ
cannot reach me directly. Because it always comes through the air.
If the air is clean, then Yǔ shuǐ is clean.
Yǔ shuǐ is a beautiful energy.”
Master Dean Li
The problems of the air are symbolic of our thoughts or our lack of understanding or clarity. Through the exercise at ip, we are reconnected with the pure spirit that manifests itself in natural processes. It always gives us clear guidance for our lives. Master Li connects us with the pure energy of Yǔ shuǐ on these days.
“If we apply international practice, practise together,
then I help you.
You are then connected to this energy,
because the spirit is connected to it.”
Master Dean Li
Tip for January: Use the clarity of nature as inspiration
Consciously feel:
Use the clarity of nature as inspiration. During this time, it is crucial to consciously feel what one can and wants. The clarity of the cold helps us, for example, to develop concepts more clearly, plan important steps, and feel if everything fits well and harmonizes.
What fears?
The cold shows us what is unclear and what ancestral fears are still at work in us. Now at ip Dà Hán we can heal them.
TCM practice:
The cold shows us what is unclear and what fears of ancestors still linger within us. Now, during ip Dà Hán, we can heal them. In TCM practice, it is essential to harness the power of winter to start optimally in spring. Preserve constitutional life energy and nurture clean Yang-Qi.
“By carefully preserving and staying connected to the energy from this state now,
we can make a big leap and transform directly at any moment.”
Master Dean Li
