CHINESE NEW YEAR 2025 Year of the Snake 






​Chinese New Year according to the lunar calendar falls on January 29 th of 2025.
The energy shift completes on February 4 of 2025
We will be celebrating a snake year in 2025. The Snake is a Fire energy. This should
help bring more happiness, energy, and passion, which are all things the yearly
energies have been lacking for almost 10 years.
Every four years in Chinese astrology we also have a travel penalty that affects train,
travel, and plane travel, it can impact all forms of travel, the snake year is one of those
years. So having your travel cure ready for 2025 will be particularly important.
The Snake, Tiger, and Monkey create a penalty of fire. Making travel more dangerous.
This occurs every fourth Chinese year. It is most prevalent in a Snake year. The Snake
represents movement as it looks like a river moving through the mountain terrain.
It is important to carry your Travel Cure and have a Car Cure in your automobile to keep
an element of protections throughout the year.
People born in a pig year will be experiencing a conflict. A conflict makes change more
likely and can induce a move or a job change or sometimes just challenges throughout
the year.
To mediate this conflict people born in Pig year can carry a Monkey. The monkey is a
mediator between the snake and the pig.
Pig years are 1935,1947,1959,1971,1983,1995,2007 and 2019
The Snake is experiencing an irritation; to soften the irritation, they should also be
carrying a monkey. Snake years are 1941, 1953,1965,1977,1989,2001,2013,2025
Understand that the year you are born is only one small aspect of your astrology chart,
and everyone’s chart has four different pillars which relate to several aspects of our
lives. Each animal also is represented by an element. It is necessary to look at the
entire chart, the chart tells us which aspects of the chart have the most importance this
year.
The Tigers] is in combination with the Snake, and therefore is in general good luck,
except for August which can activate the Fire penalty. So extra caution is recommended
for Tigers in 2025, especially in August. Tigers cannot carry a Monkey because it is part
of the penalty and in direct conflict with the Tiger.
Animals in good luck that are in combination with the Snake; are Oxen, and Rooster.

There will still be civil unrest, because of the passion and anger when the fire is
especially strong. The unrest could be stronger in summer as those are months with
strong fire.
A fire year represents optimism, it also has passion and anger attached to it. Therefore,
it is generally helpful to economics as traditionally we are more optimistic during fire
years.

The heavenly stem of the wood and the fire sits underneath it. This makes the wood
very dry and nearly useless, and the fire very strong. This makes it more difficult for
businesses relating to wood, such as retail and restaurant type businesses.

The second aspect of looking at energies is the Flying Star Feng Shui. This school of
Feng Shui it’s like looking in astrology chart for our homes and businesses. It tells us
which areas can create negative energy, and which areas are the most positive. We try
to restrain the energies of the negative spaces and activate where we see positive
energies. Having a chart of the stars that already live in the areas can be very helpful.
Most star energies changed depending on their location within the house and the other
stars they are next to.
The Grand Duke (Jupiter) is again this year in the southeast. Making sure you have one
of the celestial guardians in the southeast can help to cure the Grand Duke location. It is
most important to cure this location if it is at a highly used area, such as the front or
back door.
Celestial guardians include Fu dogs, Chi Luns, and Pi Xiu’s. Fu (Foo) Dogs should be
used in pairs. As a result, the crash position is in the northwest and is not considered a
good location to sit or spend time.
It is also believed best not sit with your back against the east, as it is considered the
location of the three Shars.

The five star is the most negative star in this cycle. It is thought to represent misfortune.
The five star is located in the northeast in 2025. This star is cured with 6 Chinese coins,
a 6 tube chime or a 6 pearl cure.
The two star which in our previous cycle represented illness, in this cycle it is future
timely, it is located in the center, however, it can still create negative aspects if it sits

next to a negative star. It is cured in the same way as the five star with six Chinese
coins, a 6 tube chime, or a six pearl cure.
The three star and six star are both considered safe and usable and typically do not
need to be cured during this cycle. The three star is located in the Northwest and the six
star is located in the South.
The seven robbery star is located in the north. It can be cured with a blue crystal, blue
glass, or a seven star cure which has ten blue glass beads and fish on it. In certain
cases, blue water can also work effectively on holding the energy of the star.
The eight star is not necessarily negative in this cycle. It’s positive or negative aspects
generally change depending on what star it is located next to. Located in the southwest
for 2025. The Star can be cured with 6 Chinese coins, a 6 tube chime.
The nine star it’s located in the east. In this current cycle, it is considered the money
star and can be activated with movement such as a fountain, clock with a secondhand,
or a cat with a waving arm.
The one star is located in the south east can also be activated as it represents future
money.
Caution needs to be used whenever activating a star unless you know the nature of the
actual stars at your home or business. That information will allow you to know whether it
is safe to activate a star.

We will have four classes/events at the beginning of 2025 so that everyone can get
prepared for the year.
All classes will be online via Zoom. Classes are still $15 each.
On January 2, 2025. The door hanger class will be on Thursday night at 6:30.
I hope you will join us in discussing the aspects of 2025 along with creating a snake
emblem for the front door to celebrate the Chinese new year.
The next Thursday night on January 9, 2025 the session is also at 6:30. I will teach a
flying star class for 2025. We will discuss all aspects of the compass school flying star
feng shui for the year along with the impacts it could have on other parts of our lives.
We will discuss different ways of curing the stars.

On Wednesday, January 29 th I will be doing a Chinese new year Joss paper ritual. I will
begin the ritual at 5 o’clock and it will be recorded on Zoom in case you need to watch it
later.

On February 6, 2025 I will teach a wealth and health feng shui class centered on things
that we need to do in 2025 to keep both of these aspects of our lives strong throughout
the year.
