Effects of the Grand Duke in 2025.

The Snake governs 2025 and shall hold office as the Grand Duke (Tai-Sui) until the Year of the Horse arrives in 2026. This year, the impact of the Snake is vibrant and joyful.

Each year brings different interactions with individual zodiac based on the study of planetary and stars' energies known as 'Gods and Killings', detailing both positive as well as negative and hidden dangers if you are not wary.

In 2025, the Snake, Pig, Monkey and Tiger are somewhat exposed in different ways. All are grouped under the ‘travelling horse’ which means that issues will arise from movements, travels, changes and transitions.

Snakes will lose focus, become careless and bound for mistakes. Do not waste time on indulgences and trivial matters as this is the time to take responsibility of serious matters at work and domestically. Do not be complacent, especially in August.

Pigs must not be rash in decisions, especially on travel and moving plans. You may get tired, but do not quit so easily. Be careful of financial executions in May.

The special relationship between Monkeys and the Snake year is a love hate, conflicting and sometimes turbulent. Do not hurt yourself out of spite.

Emotional matters plague the Tigers and it is a rough ride that clouds your judgment. Complications arise easily with people and situations are not controllable. Your actions look suspicious and you attract envy and jealousy. As early as February, relationships are going to be under stress and you are called to take sides. Choose wisely.

The Flying Stars System in the Year of the Wood Snake 2025.

Each year brings dynamism to every space. Used as both a predictive tool as well as a critical approach to manage each space within any given property, it has been proven useful in enhancing the positive vibes while controlling the unfavourable energies with simple applications.

First, you must orientate any given property or to an extent, a geographical space. Take a reference, say the facade of your property. Get a floor plan and give demarcate it into cardinal sectors.

In 2025, the center of the chart indicates the Star 2 which is associated with the Sickness Star. On a macro view, we can surmise that there is likely a health issue affecting all around the world.

Because it sits in the middle palace, chances are, the Middle East, Central Asia, Central Europe and locations between the US and Latin America may experience some health related problems that can cause serious damage to humanity and the economy. From the look of the elements of the Wood Snake year, this can relate to food contamination, toxic vegetation or an airborne virus affecting the blood and cardiovascular systems. At worst, it may spiral into a pandemic.

When you layover this over your own home, the good advice is for the family to pay attention to the general health and wellbeing of the family. Problem occur only if the external factors of the home is affected by construction works or a demolition, especially if this happens to be Northeast referenced to your home.

To have the impact of what the year's energies in 2025 can potentially bring you, we have to approach it with an unbiased view. Different stars' energies landing into different sectors will also determine a reaction as well as the intensity of its effects.

The Star 1 which accounts for Nobility visits the Southeast. It is seen as a water star that represents intelligence and emotional values adding to the growth and positive result of its interaction. If your main entrance is located in the Southeast, a live plant, fresh flowers or a moving item such as a digital clock will benefit family members who are using their intellectual works or emotional quotient at work and in business.

The Star 2 which is the Sickness Star falls into the center palace. Where you can control it, the center of the house should not have open flames such as burning candles and incense unattended. Should you find some space or a cabinet here, put a metal weight between 2kg and 5kg to suppress this Sickness Star.

The Star 3 goes to the Northwest. Being a Wood element meeting a Metal location, this creates a sense of resistance, denial and justifications for actions that may turn physical or even violent. Avoid having confrontations or arguments in this corner of the house and because the Northwest represents the head of the family, especially the Father of the house, 2025 may bring about some rather combative traits in them. Keep the metal, especially the sharp objects such as knives away from here, for safety sake.

The Star 4 is a positive energy that relates to academics, research and discoveries. The West also favours females in the house. If your room or a study area is here, chances are, the result of areas of artistic and academic achievements are very viable. If someone needs counselling and motivations, use this room to discuss and offer advice as it comes with a good level of acceptance.

The most fearsome is the Star 5 which is sometimes known as the Yellow or the Emperor Star. Landing in the Northeast sector also brings along added strength. Stirring up this sector will surely bring about negative consequences. On a broader perspective, travelling to the Northeast of any country must also come with good measure of physical and environmental observations. Watch out for natural disasters especially in the winter month of November 2025 and conversely, the month of May 2025 can be viewed as searing heat exposure. If your main entrance is located in the Northeast, do not burn things here and it is best not to leave this entrance dark especially at night. If the bedroom is in the Northeast, have a metal weight or a metal safe to minimize this impact.

Star 6 which is Metal in nature comes to the South. While not at its best strength, it is still extremely useful for one to use this place to achieve recognition and much control. If your entrance is here, put a light all day long into the night as this pulls in the wealth activation for those in public service, social media as well as professionals in sales and marketing. It is also a place for you to make your calls and close deals should you be located in the South sector in the office space.

Star 7 is known as the Robbery Star. It is an active influence that can result in losses. If your entrance is in this sector, keep it bright and do not make it easy for people to break in. More practically, visitors and strangers knocking on your doors to promote and sell products and service must be handled with extra caution and deliberation. This is a unique star with a duality. The positive side to this star benefits people who are lawyers, broadcasters, brokers and those raising funds as it is the star of articulation.

Star 8 is the star of wealth and is most useful for professionals and business owners who are in charge of sales and expansion. Southwest benefits elderly females the most although most will be able to turn this to their advantage with some simple steps. In 2025, this star is exceptionally strong and will bring about very solid results for all who are actively at work. There are several ways to bring this up to visible levels. One, if this location is in the open of the living room, TV area, near the entrance or even the balcony, put a small aquarium (there's no need for fishes). How big ? Big tank equals big wealth, small tank for smaller wealth. This also applies very much for a study area and if it is in the room dedicated for work and investments. Don't like water ? Having something moving, such as a fan, a humidifier, a clock or your luck Cat that waves at you all day long, although the effects may be smaller.

The Star 9 is the most effective of all stars in terms of actualizing financial targets and monetary returns. Flying into the East also means it is the strongest on impact. Star 9 is Fire, East is Wood and thus to energize the sector, you can also activate this with an aquarium, similar to the Southwest. Even if this is not a working area, you will find lots of inspirations sleeping here. If this is your entrance, expect yourself to be busy chasing the opportunities. This is also the best location to execute your sales, investments and fundraising calls.

In retrospect, the year 2024 is not over yet and you should try and make the best of the year with some applications similar to what has just been discussed here.
