Lunar New Year horoscope as it kicks off on Jan. 29, 2025. What the Year of the Wood Snake means for you based on your Chinese zodiac sign, according to Chinese metaphysics consultant Vicki Iskandar.

As the world enters the Year of the Wood Snake, those born in the Years of the Rat, Monkey, Rooster, Horse, and Dragon can expect a stroke of good fortune. The Snake, known for wisdom, intuition, and transformation, will guide the year with its dynamic energy, encouraging growth, calculated risks, and spiritual renewal.

Lunar New Year, often called the Spring Festival or Chinese New Year, is the most important holiday in China and many other Asian communities. Every year is marked by a different animal and 2025 is the Year of the Snake.

Since Snake is a harmonious zodiac animal for Ox, Rooster, and Monkey, these Chinese zodiac signs have a year of wealth, prosperity, and positive energy awaiting them.

While the Year of the Snake happens every 12 years, a Wood Snake year is far rarer as the last Wood Snake year was in 1965. Explore the luckiest zodiac signs in 2025.
