✨ Podcast Summary: Reflecting on the Year of the Wood Snake ✨️ In today’s episode, we dive into the powerful, transformative energy of the Wood Snake and explore how this lunar year has been quietly shaping our inner worlds. The Snake is the alchemist of the zodiac—an archetype of shedding, renewal, rebirth, strategy, and deep intuition—and with 2.5 months left in the Chinese lunar year, there’s still time to work with its medicine. We reflect on what the Snake has been inviting us to release: 💖Old patterns, beliefs, identities, and conditioning that no longer feel aligned 💖The outdated “paternal” structures—rules, expectations, and roles—that we’ve carried out of habit rather than authenticity 💖Energies of overdoing, overgiving, or living in survival mode Then we explore how the Wood Snake guides us into rebirth. Its energy is rooted, intentional, slow, and deeply wise. It asks us to move with purpose, not urgency. To trust that shedding is not loss—it’s liberation. We talk about how to use the remainder of this Wood Snake year to: ✨️Reflect on what layers you’ve shed or are still being asked to release ✨️Embrace renewal, allowing yourself to grow in a direction that feels nourishing, not performative ✨️Be strategic—to stop scattering your energy and instead make aligned, thoughtful moves ✨️Lean into intuition, letting your inner voice lead rather than external noise ✨️Choose transformation, not through force, but through grounded self-awareness The Snake teaches us that real power is quiet, intentional, and deeply internal. These next 2.5 months are an invitation to pause, soften, and ask: **What part of me is ready to be reborn? **What am I still carrying that’s meant to be shed? **Where is my intuition guiding me next? As we close the year of the Wood Snake, this is your moment to honor your growth, your wisdom, and your evolution.
