East Meets West

THE LAST WORD IN ASTROLOGY by Eugenia Last

2025 PREDICTIONS: THE YEAR OF THE SNAKE

 The Year of the SNAKE (Wood Snake)

 West January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025

East January 29, 2025 – February 16, 2026

 

I watch and wait for the right moment

Calculating the best time to make a run

Trusting my speed, agility, and precision

To carry me to my destination safe and sound.

I know the truth; share what amuses me

And discard what doesn’t matter

I playfully dance to the melody of the moment

And block out what doesn’t resonate

I bask in good fortune and excess

And invite familiar faces to join me

I promise opportunity and equality for all

And in return, demand loyalty and devotion.

 

I AM THE SNAKE

 

The Wood Snake will slither in on January 29, 2025, bringing a strong desire for intellectual freedom, allowing this unpredictable creature to unleash intuitive insight that may be difficult to fathom initially. However, with overpowering charm and a push to further an agenda that is unimaginable, the way forward will soon become crystal clear; with the presence of Pluto gracing the constellation of Aquarius, the Wood Snake will genuinely benefit, marking a time of generational change. To put matters in context, Pluto last honored the Water bearer’s space in the universe during the French Revolution. This celestial occurrence will set the stage for what unfolds between now and 2044, so brace yourself, make the most of the situation, and take positive steps to ease the pain that comes with change, and you, my friend, will gain wisdom and insight into how to make this moment in time work best for you.

Keep in mind that the Wood Snake is charismatic and can magically manipulate situations to set the stage for an agenda that benefits those in the upper echelons. Now is not the time to slip between the cracks or look the other way; this Snake knows how to take advantage of and benefit from those who choose to ignore what’s trending.

For those of you who fact-check, listen carefully, and follow the puck, you’ll learn the tricks of the trade quickly and sport a fighting chance to turn these extraordinary times into a self-prophesizing turn of events that can set the stage for future generations to profit from. The opportunities and choices aren’t likely to be anticipated, as the brilliance of Pluto’s adventure through Aquarius will have more to do with the higher mind, spirituality, and soul searching than it does currency, putting the powers that be scrambling to hang on to a changing mindset that’s position is to hit the reset button and give value back to mother earth.

Only time will tell. Psalms 37:11, the meek shall inherit the earth, may well be the result of the greed that took over during Pluto’s journey through the constellation Capricorn. It is a new dawn, so let’s rejoice at the possibilities and speak up loud and clear regarding what we, The People, want.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): What you do for others and how you care for the things that are meaningful to you count this year. It’s time to get your priorities straight and map a path that soothes the soul. The balance between stroking the egos of those in charge to ensure the safety of what’s necessary for a healthy existence will be a challenge worth fighting for.

2025 PREDICTIONS: THE YEAR OF THE SNAKE

 

The Year of the SNAKE (Wood Snake)

 

West January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025

East January 29, 2025 – February 16, 2026

 

I watch and wait for the right moment

Calculating the best time to make a run

Trusting my speed, agility, and precision

To carry me to my destination safe and sound.

I know the truth; share what amuses me

And discard what doesn’t matter

I playfully dance to the melody of the moment

And block out what doesn’t resonate

I bask in good fortune and excess

And invite familiar faces to join me

I promise opportunity and equality for all

And in return, demand loyalty and devotion.

 

I AM THE SNAKE

 

The Wood Snake will slither in on January 29, 2025, bringing a strong desire for intellectual freedom, allowing this unpredictable creature to unleash intuitive insight that may be difficult to fathom initially. However, with overpowering charm and a push to further an agenda that is unimaginable, the way forward will soon become crystal clear; with the presence of Pluto gracing the constellation of Aquarius, the Wood Snake will genuinely benefit, marking a time of generational change. To put matters in context, Pluto last honored the Water bearer’s space in the universe during the French Revolution. This celestial occurrence will set the stage for what unfolds between now and 2044, so brace yourself, make the most of the situation, and take positive steps to ease the pain that comes with change, and you, my friend, will gain wisdom and insight into how to make this moment in time work best for you.

Keep in mind that the Wood Snake is charismatic and can magically manipulate situations to set the stage for an agenda that benefits those in the upper echelons. Now is not the time to slip between the cracks or look the other way; this Snake knows how to take advantage of and benefit from those who choose to ignore what’s trending.

For those of you who fact-check, listen carefully, and follow the puck, you’ll learn the tricks of the trade quickly and sport a fighting chance to turn these extraordinary times into a self-prophesizing turn of events that can set the stage for future generations to profit from. The opportunities and choices aren’t likely to be anticipated, as the brilliance of Pluto’s adventure through Aquarius will have more to do with the higher mind, spirituality, and soul searching than it does currency, putting the powers that be scrambling to hang on to a changing mindset that’s position is to hit the reset button and give value back to mother earth.

Only time will tell. Psalms 37:11, the meek shall inherit the earth, may well be the result of the greed that took over during Pluto’s journey through the constellation Capricorn. It is a new dawn, so let’s rejoice at the possibilities and speak up loud and clear regarding what we, The People, want.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): What you do for others and how you care for the things that are meaningful to you count this year. It’s time to get your priorities straight and map a path that soothes the soul. The balance between stroking the egos of those in charge to ensure the safety of what’s necessary for a healthy existence will be a challenge worth fighting for. During the year of the Snake, plant seeds and nurture the sprouts that grow. Have patience; nothing happens overnight, but your demands will become a reality with time, endurance, and an intelligent plan. Rule of thumb: simplicity and minimalism are invincible.

Solar Sign: Aries.

Lunar Sign: Dragon.

Love: temptation, uncertainty, modification. 

Money: discipline, intelligence, contributions.

Health: moderation, stamina, respect.

Goal: experience, wisdom, resolution.

Lucky numbers: 6, 13, 22, 27, 35, 39, 47.     

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):  Put ego aside; the world becomes your oyster. Hold your cards close to your chest, offer compliments and charm on a silver platter, and watch the minions do your dirty work for you. You have plenty to gain if you choose to strongarm your way to victory. 2025 is your year to explore, expand, admire, and display your savvy intellect and lavish gains. A solid plan, muscle, and dedication are your right of passage and direct link to those you want to associate with. Hold your head high, reach for the sky, and you’ll dominate the courtyard you worked so hard to possess.

Solar Sign: Taurus.

Lunar Sign: Snake.

Love: infatuating, liberal, satiating.

Money: quintessential, validating, intoxicating.

Health: denial, invincible, fabrication.

Goal: riches acceptance, leadership.

Lucky numbers: 2, 7, 21, 26, 34, 38, 49.

         GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Fitting in is not your goal or desire. Dancing to your beat will set your soul on fire. There is little concern for anyone who doesn’t fit your agenda or isn’t there to please. It’s your spotlight, so turn up the volume and enjoy the moment, but simultaneously, don’t ignore the Snake’s intelligence; if you have something it wants, don’t turn your back. Your success depends on astuteness, a progressive attitude, and excellent timing if you’re going to come out on top. Work your magic, wag your tongue, and aim to mesmerize anyone who tries to get in your way.

Solar sign: Gemini. 

Lunar Sign: Horse.

Love: abundant, lavish, tantalizing.

Money: extravagant, influential, avant-garde.

Health: enthusiast, trendy, shortcuts.

Lucky numbers: 3, 10, 21, 29, 33, 36, 45. 

         CANCER (June 21-July 22): Trust not, and you won’t be disappointed. A surge of energy will help you fend for yourself while putting distance between you and fakes, discord, and those trying to take advantage of you using their magnetism to win you over. Although uncertainty can be exhausting, it will also deter you from making snap decisions and aligning yourself with the wrong crowd. Emotions will fluctuate when entertainment and social expenditures come into play. The temptation you experience will be your archenemy, costing you dearly emotionally, financially, and physically if you can’t master discipline and choose mind over matter.     

Solar Sign: Cancer.

Lunar Sign: Sheep.

Love:  risky, passionate, indecisive.

Money: entertaining, distracting, compulsive.

Health: inconsistent, excessive, fictitious.

Goal: happiness, abundance, popularity.

Lucky numbers: 5, 17, 20, 29, 33, 35, 41.

         LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Opportunity knocks, and the first to strike wins the jackpot. Positive change will come from doing what you can to help the underdog without suffering consequences. Your speed, agility, and innovative intelligence will guide you through the ups and downs, turning this into a strategic year that requires your undivided attention if you want to gain the most ground. Fine-tune your intelligence and choose obscure channels to infiltrate your way to the finish line, knowing you’ll be monitored by the competition and challenged if caught in unchartered territory. Play to win using an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

Solar Sign: Leo.

Lunar Sign: Monkey.

Love: demonstrative, teasing, enticing.

Money: resourceful, big-hearted, moderation.

Health: diversity, control, repetition.

Goal: outmaneuver, update, market,

Lucky numbers: 1, 12, 19, 26, 34, 42, 47.

Pay attention to detail, know everything is aligned correctly, and be ready to strategically strike while you sit back, maintain your status quo, and prepare to collect what’s rightfully yours. Keeping the peace is your forte, but if necessary, you can and will quickly counter any threat that comes your way. You are always ready to teach a lesson to those who underestimate your guile. Change may not be something you relish, but when push comes to shove, you are the master of disguise with the discipline and foresight to execute your mission.

Solar Sign: Virgo.

Lunar Sign: Rooster.

Love: sensitive, attentive, beguiling.

Money: tentative, vigilant, discriminating.

Health: maintenance, compliance, meticulous.

Goal: stability, comfort, self-reliance.

Lucky numbers: 5, 18, 21, 23, 38, 42, 47. 

         LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll get the push necessary to help you hit the reset button. It’s long overdue, and the lessons learned will make the transition easier than anticipated. Collect your thoughts, let your imagination and creativity take over, and utilize your connections to ensure success is in the bag and that you are ready to launch. Negotiate strategically; don’t sell yourself short or let your emotions stand between you and something you’ve been working toward. Waffling is not an option this year. It’s time to make a commitment to yourself and fulfill your dreams. Take responsibility for your happiness and harness love, prosperity, and peace of mind.

Solar Sign: Libra.

Lunar Sign: Dog.

Love: intense, synchronicity, gratification.

Money: prospects, incentives, speculation.

Health: perseverance, routine, attentiveness.

Goal: consistency, resilience, profits.

Lucky numbers: 8, 12, 23, 27, 31, 43, 45.

         SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Put your mysterious ways front and center this year. A secretive approach will give you the leverage you need to outmaneuver anyone who stands between you and your destination. Your timing and intuition are deadly and can carry you to the winner’s circle if you are patient and strategically place your decoys to offset anyone trying to dismantle your plans. Your desire for change is where you falter. Put your ego and emotions on the shelf, bide your time, and only strike when you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Your mission is freedom, power, and inner peace.

Solar Sign: Scorpio.

Lunar Sign: Boar.

Love: devotion, uniqueness, benevolence.

         SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Pay attention. There will be no room for error. The element of surprise is your power. Keep your strategies to yourself, and you’ll master the art of winning. Let your passion lead the way, and your dedication to yourself and the changes you want to enforce manifest into your desired lifestyle. Keep onlookers guessing and challengers mystified by the boundaries you implement, and you’ll deter anyone from trying to mess with your goals, emotions, mind, or confidence. Make it clear who runs the show, keep your private thoughts and plans to yourself, and prosperity will be yours.

Solar Sign: Sagittarius

Lunar Sign: Rat.

Love: possessive, unconventional, control.

Money: bold, independent, protected.

Health: perseverance, supervising, edification.

Goal: independence, prominence, unconventional.

Lucky numbers: 4, 11, 23, 25, 31, 37, 46.

You’ll crave change, but masterminding a plan you can put into play without complaints and criticism will take work. You’ll avoid a discrepancy if you are explicit when presenting and promoting your proposals. Anger and opposition are likely to surface, and it’s best if you are blatantly honest if you want to get things done. Simplicity, moderation, innovative ideas, and a unique way of using your skills, experience, and knowledge will keep soothsayers at arm’s length while boosting your reputation and adding credibility to your plans.

Solar Sign: Capricorn.

Lunar: Sign Ox.

Love: original, dynamic, protective.

Money: flawless, abstract, prosperous.

Health: uncertainty, guidance, action.

Goal: peace, happiness, love.

Lucky numbers: 4, 12, 23, 27, 32, 40, 46.

         AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Take care of unfinished business in preparation for new beginnings. You must let go of what’s holding you back to set rules, guidelines, and goals. Opportunity is a blink away but will go undetected if you can’t fully immerse yourself in your dreams, hopes, and wishes this year. Put pressure on yourself to strive for personal growth and be willing to offset anything or anyone who gets in your way. It’s up to you to take charge, put yourself first, and your skills to the test. High energy, enthusiasm, and excitement will carry you to victory if you give yourself the right and a chance to flourish.

Solar Sign: Aquarius.

Lunar Sign: Tiger.

Love: creative, daring, elevating.

Money: integrity, gratitude, abundance.

Health: equality, moderation, stability.

Goal: evolution, expansion, victory.

Lucky numbers: 7, 18, 23, 28, 34, 37, 49.

         PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): An active lifestyle, discipline, and designating time and effort to projects that excite you will open doors to a new adventure. A change that touches your soul will be a breath of fresh air, clearing your head and helping you establish what’s purposeful. Distance yourself from people and pastimes that are indulgent, nonproductive, and detrimental to your health and replace with a healthy diet, fitness routine, and lifestyle. Do your best to impact others positively, and you will find comfort, joy, and gratitude with each step you take and each discovery you make. Personal growth and love are yours to behold.

Solar Sign: Pisces.

Lunar Sign: Rabbit.

2025 PREDICTIONS: THE YEAR OF THE SNAKE

 

The Year of the SNAKE (Wood Snake)

 

West January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025

East January 29, 2025 – February 16, 2026

 

I watch and wait for the right moment

Calculating the best time to make a run

Trusting my speed, agility, and precision

To carry me to my destination safe and sound.

I know the truth; share what amuses me

And discard what doesn’t matter

I playfully dance to the melody of the moment

And block out what doesn’t resonate

I bask in good fortune and excess

And invite familiar faces to join me

I promise opportunity and equality for all

And in return, demand loyalty and devotion.

Keep in mind that the Wood Snake is charismatic and can magically manipulate situations to set the stage for an agenda that benefits those in the upper echelons. Now is not the time to slip between the cracks or look the other way; this Snake knows how to take advantage of and benefit from those who choose to ignore what’s trending.

For those of you who fact-check, listen carefully, and follow the puck, you’ll learn the tricks of the trade quickly and sport a fighting chance to turn these extraordinary times into a self-prophesizing turn of events that can set the stage for future generations to profit from. The opportunities and choices aren’t likely to be anticipated, as the brilliance of Pluto’s adventure through Aquarius will have more to do with the higher mind, spirituality, and soul searching than it does currency, putting the powers that be scrambling to hang on to a changing mindset that’s position is to hit the reset button and give value back to mother earth.

Only time will tell. Psalms 37:11, the meek shall inherit the earth, may well be the result of the greed that took over during Pluto’s journey through the constellation Capricorn.

East Meets West

2025 PREDICTIONS: THE YEAR OF THE SNAKE

 

The Year of the SNAKE (Wood Snake)

 

West January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025

East January 29, 2025 – February 16, 2026

 

I watch and wait for the right moment

Calculating the best time to make a run

Trusting my speed, agility, and precision

To carry me to my destination safe and sound.

I know the truth; share what amuses me

And discard what doesn’t matter

I playfully dance to the melody of the moment

And block out what doesn’t resonate

I bask in good fortune and excess

And invite familiar faces to join me

I promise opportunity and equality for all

And in return, demand loyalty and devotion.

 

I AM THE SNAKE

 

The Wood Snake will slither in on January 29, 2025, bringing a strong desire for intellectual freedom, allowing this unpredictable creature to unleash intuitive insight that may be difficult to fathom initially. However, with overpowering charm and a push to further an agenda that is unimaginable, the way forward will soon become crystal clear; with the presence of Pluto gracing the constellation of Aquarius, the Wood Snake will genuinely benefit, marking a time of generational change. To put matters in context, Pluto last honored the Water bearer’s space in the universe during the French Revolution. This celestial occurrence will set the stage for what unfolds between now and 2044, so brace yourself, make the most of the situation, and take positive steps to ease the pain that comes with change, and you, my friend, will gain wisdom and insight into how to make this moment in time work best for you.

Keep in mind that the Wood Snake is charismatic and can magically manipulate situations to set the stage for an agenda that benefits those in the upper echelons. Now is not the time to slip between the cracks or look the other way; this Snake knows how to take advantage of and benefit from those who choose to ignore what’s trending.

For those of you who fact-check, listen carefully, and follow the puck, you’ll learn the tricks of the trade quickly and sport a fighting chance to turn these extraordinary times into a self-prophesizing turn of events that can set the stage for future generations to profit from. The opportunities and choices aren’t likely to be anticipated, as the brilliance of Pluto’s adventure through Aquarius will have more to do with the higher mind, spirituality, and soul searching than it does currency, putting the powers that be scrambling to hang on to a changing mindset that’s position is to hit the reset button and give value back to mother earth.

Only time will tell. Psalms 37:11, the meek shall inherit the earth, may well be the result of the greed that took over during Pluto’s journey through the constellation Capricorn. It is a new dawn, so let’s rejoice at the possibilities and speak up loud and clear regarding what we, The People, want.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): What you do for others and how you care for the things that are meaningful to you count this year. It’s time to get your priorities straight and map a path that soothes the soul. The balance between stroking the egos of those in charge to ensure the safety of what’s necessary for a healthy existence will be a challenge worth fighting for. During the year of the Snake, plant seeds and nurture the sprouts that grow. Have patience; nothing happens overnight, but your demands will become a reality with time, endurance, and an intelligent plan. Rule of thumb: simplicity and minimalism are invincible.
