Chinese Horoscope Predictions for 2025

This year marks 2025 on the Western calendar or, on the Chinese calendar, the Year of the Snake, beginning on Wednesday, January 29, 2025.

Snake characteristics

It is good to know the general personality type of any sign that a year may fall under since it will impact world events for good or ill. Unlike Western culture that sees snakes as villainous, Eastern culture looks upo snakes as smart and agile.

In Chinese culture, a snake year is traditionally a time for typical snake characteristics to come to the fore -- such as quiet intelligence combined with a charming nature. Rather than rely on others for advice, they prefer to keep their own counsel. As such, they are intuitive in the ways of the world and are usually great money earners.

Negatively, snakes hate to lose and may exhibit a lack of scruples that can strike at any moment simply in order to get ahead. With reputations for being hoarders, they can also be very frugal and careful about lending money to friends for frivolous reasons. However, they often show extraordinary sympathy when presented with an opportunity to help someone in dire need

In matters of the heart, the snake is slow to allow others into their inner circle, but once having gained their trust they can be deeply amorous, and are known to be masters at seduction. Once establshed in traditional family life, they are usually excellent providers.

The year of the snake is traditionally associated with rebirth, as the snake sheds it skin for a new one in a powerful transformation. Those who intuitviely follow their own counsel are particularly favored to see much success in the coming year.

Since 2025 is the year of the Wood Snake, the element is predicted to give a thoughtful perspective to the plight of the less fortunate. As the world suffers through wars and financial woes joyful advances in other areas may strike as if out of the blue.
