2025 Year of the Snake

Famous Snakes: Samuel West, J.K. Rowling

Expect the solid backing of some solid gold people; friends or family in 2025. Perhaps, a political party lined up behind a beaming leader. And that may be you – the captain of the team or the central figure in front of the group.  Pay attention to the semi-circle within the circle of backers and supporters. Someone is not there forever, necessarily, and if he or she goes, so might another person. And then another. We could describe this as an ensemble cast or a political party. It may be an orchestra or a football team. A social media following or The Groucho Club.

If you regard people as a faceless mass, and make assumptions that they are backing you, sooner or later one of them may break apart from the group, and when he or she falls, the rest can topple sideways or off. Attention must be paid, to quote Arthur Miller. Treating people on a case-by-case basis, checking that they feel fulfilled, have all they need, are in a sturdy position – averts future issues.
People do have your back. It’s fantastic. Or –

You are in the circle. You are part of the supportive, protective group. You are in that cricket team or on that social media website. In front of you all is the main person – the lynchpin. The reason you are all there. And yet – there are doubts.
Like Ten Green Bottles, if one should accidentally fall, it means many of you might. So perhaps you are the person to approach the main figure here and have a word.

This card reminds us of the phrase ‘He’s got your back’ or ‘She’s got your back’ or ‘They’ve got your back’ and is very much about being supported. At least, until one is not backed any longer. That can happen if individuals remember, they are individuals – entitled to go their own way.

This can be football supporters at a game in the stands, with the rich Russian owner or the captain.  There are so many players, substitutes or supporters. t’s the same with the theatre; if you think about the cast and crew, the seating and the director or star, you get a sense of 2025. One is nothing without all of them and yet all of them need the ‘one’. The chosen or fated one.

It is time for you or the front person here, to actually actively pursue each and every face as an individual. Put back into these people what they need. Try to enrich, expand and improve the separate relationships and people. With care, with sensitivity, with time and effort, this impressive wall of support and backing can indeed become hard to topple.

The central character, which may be you, needs to remember that he or she is the first line of defence. The front line. “This far and no further” might be the message. Every group needs a leader, protector and defender. So you do have quite a lot to maintain here in 2025. Yet, attention must be paid, as I’ve mentioned. There are no little people here. Perish the thought. Without them all, you lose your wall. And collectively you are so potentially remarkable together, it is well worth your effort as one of the circle, or for you (as the main person) to try very hard to make sure it all succeeds.
