Understanding the effects of what each year brings is the key to mange your expectations, maximize the results you target, skirt around potential pitfalls, avoid dangers altogether and align yourself to the flow of energies.
Each year is assigned a zodiac sign in this system. It starts with the Rat and ends with the Pig. In 2025, it is the Year of the Snake and with an attachment of an element, it is paired as the Year of the Wood Snake （乙巳）.
Within this arrangement, the Snake carries the torch as the ruling year and will be tagged as the 'Grand Duke' of 2025. Otherwise named as the term 'Tai-Sui' (latinized from the Chinese character 太歳）, the emphasis turns to whether this default responsibility is an advantage or a burden to those born in the years of the Snake (2025, 2013, 2001, 1989, 1977, 1965) on a twelve year cycle.
For most part of this, the general assumption is that those who are born in any of the Snake years should expect some tough luck because you are banded as 'offending the Grand Duke'. The presumption is, anything that you do wrong within the 12 months of that year may bring catastrophic consequences if you mismanage decisions.
Then, comes the side effects. And this originates from the relationships between the Snake and the rest of the zodiac in the calendar system. In any given year, there will be other implications.
For example in 2025, the Snake is said to 'offend the Grand Duke'.
Which zodiac sign clashes the Snake ? The Pig. And thus, anyone born in Pig years is 'clashing against the Grand Duke'. That sounds even more morbid ! Clashing against the 'boss' is surely not a good idea of having a prosperous and happy year.
There exists a special relationship when the Snake meets the Monkey. It is, on the surface, a mutual attraction of energies and admiration. This is known the the 'combination' in destiny reading astrology which has a resultant element that is 'water'. This leads to overthinking and suspicions. As such, the Monkey in 2025 has a 'destruction' relationship against the Grand Duke of the Snake year.
To add to the politics, while the Monkey is 'combining' or allying with the Snake, Tigers create a clash against the Monkey by its natural existence. It is akin to Tigers creating a wedge between them or worse, if there is an intimate relationship between the Snake and the Monkey in the first place, all Tigers will be playing the 'third party'.
All these conjectures are. of course, within the framework of the forecasting methods and while they hold certain pull factor or attraction towards such incidents happening, knowledge of handling your personal decorum and steps you take will surely put you in good hands.
In summary, for 2025, the following zodiac will be impacted by one way or another.
Snakes 'offend' the Grand Duke.
Pigs 'clash' the Grand Duke.
Monkeys 'destroy' the Grand Duke.
Tigers 'harm' the Grand Duke.
The unique perspective also borders on the fact that all these zodiacs affected are in the classification of 'travelling horses'. So, as a precaution, travelling in general needs special attention and plans.
Adding to this, the Snake year 2025 brings another volatility. The 'unholy trinity' among the Snake, Tiger and Monkey results in an 'ungrateful punishment'. Quick presumptions and self-designed assumptions will definitely bring about disappointments. This punishment has been demonstrated with acts of reneging on promises that lead to bitter breakups and cold dispositions.
The Year of the Wood Snake has integrated into the Period 9 which calls for reasons of optimism. Sudden unexpected events must not be viewed as totally detrimental nor damaging to the overall good. Even if you are charted with any or all of these zodiac signs, there is little to worry about if you plan and strategize your executions with care and diligence.
