More on the Year of the Snake
2025 marks the Year of the Snake, with the zodiac symbol for 2025 being the ‘wood snake’. 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.
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. The snake, the sixth animal in the Chinese zodiac, represents intuition, strategy and elegance. When paired with the Wood element, 2025 emphasises adaptability, creativity and long-term planning.
