Do you feel a push of chaotic energy has occurred over the last few months? That energy is the tail of the Dragon (2024), which began its slow exit from a charge of yang energy toward a shift of yin energy.
Energy is unlike a light switch that you can instantly turn on and off. Instead, it gathers, pools, and gradually changes. However, when a shift contrasts from yang to yin, which 2024 to 2025 has, the effects are more noticeable.
We began to see the tail of the Dragon (2024) make its exit journey when Hurricane Helene ravaged the Gulf Coast of Florida to the North Carolina mountains.
We recently witnessed the Yin Wood Snake (2025) begin to stir with the LA wildfires. Albeit the Snake will fully birth on February 3rd based on the sun and solar calendar, its elements have already made themselves known. How so?
The Snake Year (2025) contains several elements (Yin Wood, Yang Fire, Yang Earth, and Yang Metal). If we break the energy down further, the Snake falls within the Fire group. Yang Fire brings sunshine, heat, summer, and often wildfires. Yang Metal brings strong winds, and Yang Earth is mountainous terrain. Yin Wood represents the tree brush.
Los Angeles County experienced the most devastating wildfire in recorded history that ravaged neighborhoods in mostly mountainous terrain with hurricane winds, and uncleared brush that caused the fires to spread rapidly. 2025 can bring more remarkable weather events and perhaps even bigger ones, including hurricanes and additional wildfires. Even though it’s not a water year, heat (Fire) makes hurricanes bigger and more destructive, and Metal wind expands them. Those states vulnerable to hurricanes and wildfires must be prepared to handle the worst-case scenario.
My heart goes out to all those who lost their homes and devasted by these fires. My daughter and niece live in LA and were part of the evacuated areas. Thank God they are safe and their homes were not damaged. Others weren't so lucky.
Many are questioning the lack of preparedness in LA County for this catastrophic event including why the Palisades area reservoir is in disrepair and empty or why firefighters encountered fire hydrants that had no water. Could there possibly be something nefarious going on here?
The Snake Year can harbor deception and undermining behavior. This aspect of the Snake can easily be squelched by its transformative nature and willingness to trust in the inherent goodness of human beings. The Snake calls for a shift from the lens of deficiency to the view of untapped potential waiting to be nurtured and fostered.
Snake Year Pointers:
2025 will be more about being calm, treading slowly, and digging deep within for personal growth. Spending more time in prayerful meditation, taking long walks in nature, committing to a strong yoga practice, or taking a spiritual retreat are perfect tools for cultivating your inner garden, healing, and gaining wisdom.
Seeking mentors from whom you can gain inspiration is a good idea this year as the process of spiritual growth and transformation can leave you feeling vulnerable.
This year, expanding your awareness of your blessings and developing a steady routine is essential.
Being prepared for unexpected and severe situations is advisable as historically, the Snake years were tumultuous from WW1, the Stock market crash (1929), Pear Harbor (1941), and 911 in 2001.

Clarity and Goals

How many goals have you written down for the new year? Have you lost momentum already? We all want to do it all, but taking on too many goals can overwhelm instead of inspire. Here are a few suggestions for how to find clarity and reach your goals in 2025.
Look at the list of goals you wrote down. Now cross a few off the list. Less is always more. When you focus on fewer goals, you give each one the attention it deserves.
Break down your goals according to categories. For example, career, family, and health. Then just pick one or two priorities for each category.
Free up mental clutter. Start your day with a brief meditation. This will clear your head so you can accomplish more. When the mind is cluttered and weighed down by too many things to do, it is difficult to reach your intended goals.
With a simplified approach and a calm mind, you and your goals can thrive.

Untapped Potential

The creation story is a representation of the human experience. Think about it. In the beginning, there was darkness and chaos. The earth was formless and devoid of life and meaning. But with a word, God spoke light and life into existence. The plants grew, the animals roamed the earth, and beauty covered the firmament. It was all good, stamped with creativity, love, and purpose. When God said, “Let there be light,” it was the beginning of creation. Because where the light shines, true potential is realized.
The creation story mirrors our personal stories. From time to time, we feel lost tossed to and fro by chaotic circumstances like the earth in the beginning. But once we recognize our purpose in life and listen to our highest self, our lives start teeming with vitality and inspiration.
When you feel connected to your higher self you begin to flourish and it brings out your potential.
Be open to the unexpected ways the universe speaks to you. This may include the most unlikely people. Reflect on how you interact with those around you, especially strangers or unexpected guests.
Make room this year for prayer and meditation. Embrace patience and let the perfect timing of the divine's plan unfold. Impatience breeds chaos and interferes with the process.
