We are entering into a year of death and rebirth, a year to make responsible decisions to evolve spiritually, moving away from old ways and habits that no longer serve us well. Among all living creatures, the Snake is the best equipped due to its magnetic resonance to hear the heartbeat of Mother Earth. It is a dynamic year to learn from the past, moving forward with wisdom, awareness, transformation and compassion.

The Snake represents wisdom, knowledge, intelligence, intuition and creativity. Snakes are also associated with good luck, prosperity, fertility and longevity. In some legends, snakes are considered divine messengers and guardians of sacred places. Snakes are also revered for their ability to shed their skin and renew themselves, symbolising transformation and rebirth.

The Year of the Wood Snake

​The Snake is the sixth animal in the zodiac, and it has a complex and mysterious nature.

Each year holds different elements, which gives it a different essence and meaning. The Wood Snake is a charming, intelligent and creative sign, but also secretive, cunning and sometimes ruthless.
​
At the beginning of 2025, the world is still under the rulership of the outgoing and positive Dragon, and so a high-action period with plenty of activity is expected. Snake years are times when the world stops to think; on the international scene, governments may be using this time to build up resources for their arsenals.

Mythology recognises the Snake as a creature of healing, which influences the physical body to shift to a more spiritual outlook. A great deal of quiet progress can be made in 2025 with the help of this planetary energy. Honour this transformative beginning every day with positive thoughts.

The Snake year encourages protection, so create a safe space to work and live by practising good feng shui to feel safe and secure to enhance the year’s energy. This is the year to make headway in methodical and strategic ways. There is no need to exhaust your energy: adopt the nature of the Snake with awareness and a greater sense of timing, ready to strike when the time is right to maximise the energy of the year.
​
While the Year of the Snake will be less noisy than last year’s Dragon year, it will be no less deadly. The Snake is a double-edged creature, embodying both wisdom and danger. While it offers opportunities for growth and insight, it will require careful navigation to avoid its hidden perils.
