For those that want to know the meaning and in depth individual forecasts of The Year of the Snake ☯️
Happy Chinese New Year! CT Holman has continued Lillian Pearl Bridges’ tradition of writing the Chinese astrology forecast. Here is a snip of his prediction for 2025, year of snake.
"The Year of the Dragon asked us to evolve, let go of old patterns, and grow up. In the Year of the Snake, we enter adulthood and thrive with the strength to accomplish our goals. This year offers incredible power and wisdom, which we can utilize to navigate our blossoming awareness. We can harmonize our energy and our connection to the environment. We merge with nature and draw on its innate healing. It is time to celebrate life!
2025 signifies the Year of the Yin Green Snake. The snake (si) is the sixth earthly branch in which creativity abounds and our consciousness awakens. Hopefully, throughout 2024, we all have matured and shed old belief systems that were not serving us. As we move into 2025, we step in with young adult energy, bursting with life and overflowing with ideas. The snake offers us more opportunities to expand our intellect and ‘shed our skin.’ By taking the time to achieve your goals, patience comes with ease. This year is ripe with energy, so we must integrate our qi and be open to love. Celebrations for the snake year begin on January 29th, and the snake officially emerges on February 3rd.
Individual Animal Forecasts for 2025
Rat: Your good luck from 2024 extends into the year's first quarter. Utilize last year's new wisdom and heart expansion to accomplish your goals. As the year progresses, you might find yourself needing some more rest. Excitement abounds, and it will be crucial for you to anchor and ground yourself so you do not get swept away and lose your focus on what you desire to manifest.
Ox: Stability increases throughout the year, and good luck flourishes! Your spiritual pursuits manifest as gifts to your life, and you will find creativity blooming from your inner wisdom. Any digestive issues clear up, and your ability to process information improves. This is a great year for deepening romantic relationships; love is coming your way if you are single!
Tiger*: This year asks you to embrace peaceful, mindful energy without getting swept up in the inherently aggressive and adrenaline-rich year. When dealing with others, be aware of remaining malleable and serene to bring harmonious communication and a shared interest in meeting goals. 2025 asks you to develop patience, which will accentuate good luck for your next year.
Rabbit: You will find yourself moving quickly and easily in 2025. Your ability to sense when to act and when to rest will serve you well in this powerful snake year. This year can potentially launch your career to the next level, which could bring criticism and jealousy from others. Refine your unassuming and warmhearted nature to succeed in your endeavors.
Dragon: Develop your creativity to feel grounded and focused in this exciting year. Old childhood issues could arise, but by tapping into the mystical, you will receive messages from the universal qi. By following your heart's desire and pursuing what you love, money and resources abound. Place red-colored items in your meditation space to accentuate your health and spirituality.
Snake*: This is a good luck year for those turning 60. Otherwise, you might face challenges with ravenous desire or intense fatigue since 2025 is known in Chinese culture as a good-bad luck year for snakes (see above for explanation). It would be best if you took the time to achieve goals and enrich your kindness. If so, you will rouse your consciousness and easily get things done.
Horse: 2025 stokes your passion and vigor! Your finances continue to grow, and you will find a lot of assistance from your community. Rely on your tenacity as this year proves to be a success, with many growth and awakening opportunities. Taper your desire for excitement and seek enjoyment instead. Get ready for a wild ride into the upcoming horse year!
Goat: You can land that dream job by following your bliss and committing to goals that light up your heart. The active nature of the year presents many chances to complete your tasks. Remain unpretentious; you will thrive and move effortlessly through this powerful year. Take care to nurture your gratitude to set the stage for a good luck year in 2026!
Monkey: Your good luck streak continues! You have arrived and get what you want as long as you cultivate modesty. Nimbly navigate this busy year with your intelligence, being mindful of not hurrying. Engage with your community and nurture your inner joy. Money comes easily this year, and consider wearing black when you have an important meeting or presentation.
Rooster: Good luck extends into 2025 for you! Let your humor dance in the minds of loved ones as you follow a well-defined itinerary for completing your goals. Flaunt your style with green and red outfits to bring wealth and a sense of grounding. Take time to practice breathing techniques to nourish your lungs. You can even practice this under a full moon and send love to your family.
Dog: Last year presented many challenges. You might feel like licking your wounds, but 2025 is a time to let go of the past and create a brilliant next chapter. The skills you acquired in the dragon year will continue to develop and serve you in navigating the many changes afoot. This year, excitement abounds. Stay mindful of getting caught up in the adrenaline frenzy. Good luck is coming in 2026!
Pig*: Reflection and relaxation are your themes in the snake year. You might encounter some challenges. Develop your virtue and visualize your engagement with heaven and earth. This year asks us to awaken our consciousness, which can bring up old hurts. Call on your courageous nature to stay present and gentle. Wear black to tune into your spirit and green to activate your power.
*Carry a monkey charm to help bring good luck for the year: Snake (unless turning 60), tiger, and pig will benefit from carrying/wearing a charm. Ox, monkey, and rooster do not need to carry a charm.
