Year of the Snake is here! Find out what's in store for you!

2022 begins the first of three seed-saving years in your 12-year cycle. The work of harvest is done, and now you sit in the center of abundance. This year, you can be in the right place at the right time. Something you've been working on for a long time suddenly takes off, and you become an “overnight” success. But this is also a year to carve out some time to rest. You need to build time off into your schedule, as others will take your time and energy whenever they can.

In the water Tiger year, you can find recognition for the work that you've been doing. You are easily seen, and this facilitates meeting important people. You could connect with new friends, a potential partner, and a well-regarded mentor.

Calendars, clocks, and the passage of time are important in 2022. It's necessary for you to examine the way you schedule yourself. Your days can be filled with worthwhile projects, or frittered away on mindless distractions.

Overall, the word for Snake is “reputation.” It’s time to show others your talents and abilities.
