As we move into 2026 do you still feel stuck in 2025. Have you been feeling more emotional than usual, physically tired but not sure why, more sensitive to people, noise and responsibilities. If you feel like 2025 hasn’t ended your body may be dialed into the vibrational frequency of the lunar year. This is the last week of the year of the Wood Snake and we will be moving into the year of the Fire Horse. (The year of the Smoke Snake is ending.) While some celebrated the new year on Feb 3rd other will be celebrating it on Feb 17th.
The year of the Smoke Snake was steeped in wisdom, deep intuition and mystery. Its goal was to teach us to shed our skins, to go inward and to listen to the whispers of your soul. It was not a year to rush towards resolutions but a year of inner transformation, where slow growth was happening beneath the surface. To learn survival through patience and learning how to bend without breaking, to grow roots and shed what no longer served us.
Some may have experienced this last year feeling slower or heavier in nature. Our emotional intensity may have been heightened, not necessarily because more was happening externally, but because we were being called to turn inward. This inward reflection may have felt challenging at times, especially if long-avoided truths became clearer and harder to ignore. The goal was to bring clarity, emotional honesty and transformation; allowing you to rest, let go and finish the year gently so you could move into the new lunar year, the Year of the Fire Horse. In contrast this new year beginning, is about fire and freedom. It will ask us to act on what we’ve discovered during the Snake's introspection. The Horse is a symbol of passion, independence, courage, truth and rapid movement. My hope is these words will help you move forward in the months to come.
