This new Chinese year 2025 begins on January 29, 2025, and ends on February 16, 2026. In the previous year, success was valued and encouraged. This year presents itself differently. This Snake brings a certain wisdom and a new form of calm. Spirits are calming. It demonstrates that the world is not perfect and can be disappointing. After seeing their fortune go up in smoke or realizing that glory was ephemeral, some people will pose existential questions.
Some will return to fundamentals that have been forgotten in the heat of action. Others will seek answers to their questions. They will find them in literature, and not just any literature.
Authors who have written timeless works will regain lost success. New writers will emerge. Philosophy and meditation will have more and more followers. People will realize that futility brings little. Consequently, they will turn to understanding human nature. In this state of mind, the means available will be used differently and with more awareness.
