Digging Through Shadows To Find the Light

By Mark Borax | February 11, 2025 |

On January 29th, 2025 the Dragon gave way to the Snake, a creature most depth-oriented, hypnotic and intense.

This year, when meeting external challenges—especially relationship challenges—be wary not to get so glued to external drama that you ignore what’s brewing in the depths of the soul.

Desire is a prime motivating force in snake years, so will be on the rise, which can harness blocked passion and unconsummated need, to aim them at what your soul desires.

The human shadow is a messy but nutrient-rich place when you shed old identities and worn-out roles.

Letting go of what you used to desire may be the strongest snake medicine now to renew your spirit, and help you craft an identity based more on truth than ego. 

Transformation is gathering root force below the ground of social appearance, where people are sick and tired of being pushed down; kundalini long repressed is coiled and ready for ignition sparks of a profound new passion to set it off.

On February 11 Sun Square Uranus, pitts your higher nature against your ego. Find the cosmic path that brings your magic down to earth and let it rip.

On February 4 Jupiter went direct in 12° Gemini, which conjures the ancient karmic battle between the dark muck of self-serving illusion and the bright promise of a creative wind that spurs our species forward.

Regardless of external blows and relationship challenges in store this year, cosmic forces are pushing us to strive for genuine awakening, which transcends smarmy memes.

Collaborators, friends and peers—the realm of the Twins—can help you shed your old skin and wrap yourself around the things you love rather than the things that hold you back.
