Here are the things that you need to know:

Transformation and Growth

2025 marks the Year of the Yin Green Snake, a time of personal evolution and maturity. Following the energetic push of the Year of the Dragon, this year invites us to step into full power, shedding old beliefs and embracing new opportunities. It’s a year of deep transformation, growth, and potential for those ready to evolve.


Harness the Power of Patience
The Snake’s yin energy teaches us patience and perseverance. This is a year to work steadily towards your goals, with an emphasis on long-term vision rather than quick success. This is also in terms of stockmarket- forecast warms not good year for high risk investments. The Snake’s energy encourages us to slow down, think strategically, and take the necessary steps to manifest our desires with care and thoughtfulness.


A Year to Align with Nature
The Snake is strongly connected to nature, and this year urges us to harmonise with the natural world. Whether through spending more time outdoors, outside, or nurturing your indoor plants or adopting more environmentally sustainable practices, noticing and aligning  your energy the natural cycle in nature. Reconnecting with nature will be key to personal and collective growth.


The Wood and Fire Elements
The combination of Wood (growth) and Fire (passion) this year creates a dynamic and fertile environment for new ideas ( or baby)  and creative projects. Wood fuels growth, while Fire provides the drive and energy to move forward.  Whether it’s in your career, personal life, or creative ventures, the synergy of these elements will empower you to take bold steps and bring your visions to life.


Emotional Clarity and Balance
The Snake offers deep wisdom and encourages emotional clarity. This year, it’s important to clear away emotional blockages that could hinder progress. This year is about shedding what doesn’t serve us as we transform into new ways. Stillness, calm and clarity are key to good decisions.   Practising mindfulness, meditation, and self-reflection can help you stay emotionally balanced, making it easier to face challenges and make clear, focused decisions.


Rest, Reflection, and Inner Peace

The yin aspect of the Snake calls for rest, introspection, and a focus on inner peace. While this year is full of energy for growth and change, it’s equally important to take time to rest, reflect, and replenish your spirit. Use this time to nourish your mental and physical well-being, ensuring that you’re grounded and aligned with your higher purpose. This year is good to plan  time out daily, weekly , monthly and quarterly and retreat.. ( even if this means 30 minutes in your bedroom quietly).


Health and Vitality
The Snake is linked to the small intestine, which governs digestion and nutrient absorption. This year, focus on maintaining good health by nurturing your body with nourishing foods that support your digestion and energy levels. We urge to keep it light this year and pay attention to how your body responds to different foods and make adjustments to maintain balance and vitality.


Creative Energy and Innovation
The Snake is also a symbol of creativity and wisdom. This year is ripe for innovation, particularly in areas of art, business, and personal expression. It’s an ideal time to explore new ideas, embark on creative projects, or learn new skills. Allow yourself to think outside the box and explore fresh, imaginative avenues.


Patience and Strategy in Achieving Goals
Like the Snake, this year requires a steady, strategic approach to achieving goals. Quick results may not always be the best ones; instead, take your time to plan carefully and work methodically. By being patient and intentional with your efforts, you will build a strong foundation for long-term success.


Embrace Change and Flexibility
The Snake’s energy encourages us to remain flexible in the face of change. The year’s Wood element brings the potential for growth, but also significant shifts and transformations. Whether in your personal life, career, or relationships, staying open to change and adapting to new circumstances will help you thrive in this dynamic year.
