General Outlook for the Year of the Snake

The snake symbolizes transformation and resilience. According to Marites Allen, 2025 is a year for reinvention—whether in career, relationships, or personal growth. However, much depends on individual efforts and karma. Those who act with kindness and wisdom will reap the benefits, while those who invite negativity may struggle.

Predictions for Each Zodiac Sign

Lucky Signs:

• Snake (本命年 – Your Year!) – This is a victorious year for those born in the Year of the Snake. However, since all eyes are on you, it’s essential to be mindful of your actions. Take calculated risks and embrace new opportunities.

• Dragon – The presence of the victorious star means it’s time to launch long-awaited projects. Partnerships between Snakes and Dragons are particularly powerful this year, creating what Allen calls a “house of magic.”

• Horse – The ultimate superstar of the year! Expect strong support from friends and colleagues. Whether in love, career, or personal pursuits, luck is on your side. Even minor mistakes may be overlooked.

• Rooster – Intelligence and strategy are your strengths. This year presents excellent opportunities for education, travel, and career advancements. If you've been waiting for a promotion or a big break, now is the time to go for it.

• Monkey – The prosperity wealth star is shining on you. Financial gains are likely, and this year is ideal for investments and career progression.

• Sheep – The triple wealth star brings financial prosperity. Special wealth days to look out for are February 10, February 18, and February 28. Consider strategic financial moves on these dates.

• Rabbit – You have the prosperity star number nine, bringing multiplied opportunities. However, be cautious when choosing business partners to avoid financial risks.

Challenged Signs:

• Tiger – The presence of the misfortune star suggests that challenges may arise, but Feng Shui adjustments can help mitigate setbacks. Skin-related health issues may also surface, so self-care is essential.

• Dog – The argumentative star can cause conflicts. Avoid unnecessary debates and practice patience to maintain peace in personal and professional relationships.

• Boar (Pig) – As the enemy of the Snake, this is a year of transformation. Misunderstandings may arise, so be careful with communication. Engaging in charity work can help shift energy in your favor.

• Rat – Financial opportunities are present, but beware of theft or losses. Avoid lending or borrowing money as you may not get it back.

• Ox – An ally of the Snake, but this year may feel like two steps forward, one step back. Stay resilient and avoid overworking yourself to prevent health concerns.

Key Dates and Feng Shui Enhancements

• Midterm Elections (May 12, 2025) – Falling on a Snake day, in a Snake month, during a Snake year, this is an unprecedented alignment. Those born in the Year of the Boar should be extra cautious, as this could be a particularly challenging time for them.

• Transformation for Boar-born Individuals – Consider making a significant change in your personal life, whether in appearance, habits, or career direction.

• Wealth and Fortune Boosters – The lucky color for 2025 is red, especially for financial success. Gold, white, and silver are also powerful elements due to the lack of metal in the year’s chart. Wearing these colors can enhance connectivity and positive opportunities.

• Chinese New Year Celebration (January 29 – February 12, 2025) – The first 15 days of the Lunar New Year are crucial for setting the tone of the year. Wearing red and using Feng Shui amulets can help attract good fortune.
