Happy year of the snake!



The Lunar calendar is so much more fun than the Gregorian calendar!! Not like I totally believe in the predictions (the Zodiac is a little bit like Miss Cleo to me), but it's fun!

If you're a Snake, we're not a good pair (the Pig and the Tiger do not get along well with the Snake, apparently). But you'll get along very well with Monkeys, Oxen and Roosters. So there's that. Want an example? J.K. Rowling is a Snake. Yep, that explains it all.

My 2025 apparently will be tricky because I will experience a mix of opportunities and challenges due to conflicts with Tai Sui. Xianghai (harm) and Xiangxing (punishment) energies may create potential interpersonal difficulties. (Go figure)

However, my Guiren (benefactors) energy will be strong. With the support of auspicious stars like Tiande and Fude, I can overcome many obstacles and find success, especially in my career and finances. Money!!

So, wear something red throughout 2025 if you're a Snake and overall, avoid doing the following for 15 days:

Do not clean until the fifth day: Sweeping, taking out the trash, or even doing laundry before the fifth day could wash away your newfound luck.

Avoid sharp objects: Using scissors or knives could “cut” the flow of wealth and success. This is also why most barbershops in China close during the holiday.

Don’t break ceramics or glass: Breaking something is believed to shatter your connection to good fortune. If this happens, say the phrase Sui Sui Ping An to pray for peace and safety.

So there it is. Have a great Lunar New Year, Constant Reader!


XOXO

    HuntleyBiGuy:
    Happy New Year! That’s quite a “snake” he’s got there.

    So I’m a dog, it seems. “In Chinese astrology, Dog has a keen sense of justice, valor, and loyalty—betrayal is not part of their dictionary. They’re courageous, helpful, humble, and kind-hearted, with a spirit of selfless dedication and an inviolable conduct of morality.”

    And you know you’re getting long in the tooth when choosing a year on one of those selectors takes FOREVER to scroll to your year. And in the list of the years for your sign…yours is the first one 😱

    XOXO 👨🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏽

      You are one of my best matches, BTW (but we knew that).

      XOXO

  3. The Year of the Snake is not a good time to make any life changes... and, of course, we have a moral degenerate in the White House.

    1. Oh, it's going to be quite the year.
      And Mango Mussolini is the worst that can happen to this year, for real.

  4. I was so sure this was going to be about tentacle porn! Well, my dear, hopefully your year will run smoothly and all will be well. I don't know if we have a snake in the white house, but we certainly have our share of vipers! Beware their fangs. Kizzes.

      Oh, I think I did a post about tentacle porn awhile ago. With visuals.
      And I hope my year does go well. Really, Upton. So much shit going on with Cheeto in power!

      XOXO

  5. Big says,
    Well, I am a Dragon.

    After a challenging Year of the Dragon, 2025 brings much-needed stability for Dragons. The lingering effects of last year’s Tai Sui clash will fade by spring, allowing you to enjoy a year of steady progress, especially in financial matters. (Finally!!)

    Some challenges will remain, particularly regarding health and household life, but Dragons will find that their hard work yields positive results. (Oh, we've seen this coming, now, haven't we? STILL no diagnosis. Oy.)

    Happy New Year, Six!
    XOXO

    1. Yay for stability!
      And Dragons are very resilient (according to the horoscope) and I'm sure everything will be ok.

      Happy New Year, Big!

      XOXO

  6. OMG. If only that hunk were real, then I’d know exactly what is meant by Gung Hey Fat Choy... or at least his fat choy.

      Oh, I know, right? Silverjow KNOWS his way around hunks. And that man IS the definition of Happy New Year.
      His Fat Choi is probably fab.

      XOXO

  7. I'm a rooster or the cock as they call it, and I hate snakes. Well except for the trouser snake variety.
