DID YOU KNOW?
Every year in the Chinese zodiac’s 12-year cycle is ruled by a different sign, and each zodiac animal is associated with one of the five elements, meaning the Wood Snake is only celebrated once every 60 years. The last Year of the Wood Snake was 1965, and the next one after 2025 will be… 2085.
The Wood Snake is driven to succeed and rarely makes mistakes. To increase their luck, people born under the Wood Snake sign should consider 2, 8 and 9 to be their lucky numbers, while black, red and yellow are their lucky colours.
The reverse design by artist Simon Ng celebrates the Year of the Snake, as indicated by the Chinese character for “snake” (top). It features a unique view of the Chinese zodiac animal in disguise while basking on a tree branch that represents the Wood element in 2025. Its body is ornamented with auspicious narcissus blooms that complement the yin (female) aspect of the lunar snake. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
