Chinese New Year 2025: Year of the Snake and Lucky Zodiac Signs
The Chinese New Year, falling on January 29th, 2025, ushers in the Year of the Snake, a year symbolic of wisdom, intuition, and transformation. Unlike the more auspicious Dragon or Pig, the Snake’s association with luck is less direct, yet certain zodiac signs stand to benefit greatly in the coming year. According to tarot reader and astrologer Valeria Black, five zodiac signs are particularly fortunate from December 16th to 22nd, 2024, based on I Ching hexagram interpretations.
This week’s fortunate signs are Rabbit, Horse, Dragon, Tiger, and Monkey. Each sign’s path to good fortune is unique and reveals specific ways to attract success and positive energy.
Rabbit: Those born in the Year of the Rabbit (1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011) can expect luck from all directions. Younger Rabbits (under 20) will experience this most profoundly, but embracing a childlike sense of wonder is key for all Rabbits, who may find white and blue lucky charms beneficial this week.
Horse: For those born in the Year of the Horse (1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014), good fortune manifests in the culinary arts. Exploring new foods and gastronomic experiences will unlock unexpected opportunities. White and blue are also auspicious colors for Horses this week.
Dragon: The Year of the Dragon is usually not associated with exceptional luck, yet this week brings a welcome change. Valeria Black encourages Dragons (1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024) to step outside their comfort zones and embrace new experiences. Networking and social events are particularly recommended, and red is the lucky color.
Tiger: For Tigers (1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022), creative pursuits are the key to attracting success this week. Engaging with others who hold unique perspectives in their field will amplify their good fortune. Travel may also present unexpected lucky opportunities. White, especially white roses, holds particular significance.
Monkey: Those born in the Year of the Monkey (1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016) can expect financial luck this week. This wealth may manifest in career advancements or personal relationships. Blue, green, and yellow are lucky colors, with yellow flowers providing an extra boost.
These predictions offer a blend of traditional Chinese zodiac wisdom and astrological insight, providing a fascinating perspective on how to harness positive energy and improve fortune. Remember, these are simply suggestions, and your own intuition and actions will ultimately shape your destiny.
