THE Chinese zodiac continues to fascinate millions around the globe. Unlike the Western zodiac based on monthly star signs, the Chinese zodiac operates on a 12-year cycle, with each year represented by an animal and its accompanying elemental force. These signs – Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig – offer insights into personality traits, compatibility, and the energies that shape each year.
With 2025 marking the Year of the Wood Snake, this is a time believed to bring focus, intuition, and a touch of mystery to our lives. The snake, celebrated for its wisdom and elegance, symbolizes transformation, while the wood element adds growth, creativity, and a steady drive.
