On January 29, 2025, Asian communities celebrate the New Year or "Spring Festival" and the advent of the year of the Wood Snake. Of all the animals in the Chinese zodiac, the Snake has the reputation of being the most enigmatic.
Mysterious and secretive, he seeks above all to preserve his privacy. Observant, curious about everything, a bit lazy, he shows great insight in his relationships. A fine psychologist, he is a good negotiator and those around him appreciate his listening skills, even if at first he seems reserved, even cold. The year 2025 promises to be rich in transformations in the lives of Snake natives. To manage the changes that are looming, they can count on their intelligence and their ability to see beyond appearances. The Snake feels the constant need to improve itself and the influence of the Wood element is of great help to it by infusing it with its energy in moments of introspection.
But to take full advantage of this year and explore the new paths that open up to them, Snakes will have to arm themselves with courage and demonstrate open-mindedness. With more than 4,000 years of history, the New Year festival, a cornerstone of Chinese culture, is celebrated by around 2 billion people around the world. The festivities last for fifteen days: parades, dances, fireworks, and parades follow one another. A time of joy and sharing, this celebration is an opportunity to bring together family members, sometimes coming from far away for the event, to exchange gifts and to celebrate New Year's Eve around traditional dishes. The "Lantern Festival", the highlight of the festivities, brings the cycle of celebrations to a beautiful close. Before meeting again next year...
