Good riddance to the year of the serpent that roared

As 2025 comes to a close, the Indo-Pacific’s three great powers have delivered the exact opposite: strategic blundering, diplomatic bombast and economic turbulence.

The Yin Wood Snake is the part of my Asian Diasporic Zodiac, inspired by conversations with my Taiwanese mother and the landscapes of Turtle Island / the Americas. More from the series: jenie.studio/collections/... #yearofthesnake #woodsnake #yearofthewoodsnake #chinesezodiac #lunarnewyear

Another Chinese New Year artwork from me! Rua from my Chronicles Of Ciel fantasy light novel series, dressed in traditional Feitian fairy costume from Chinese legends. I used fineliners and felt tip markers. 2025 is the Year of the Wood Snake, hence the green snake and borders. I didn't want to neglect drawing my own original characters ❤ #chinesenewyear #ChineseNewYear2025 #YearoftheSnake #YearOfTheWoodSnake #oc #originalcharacter

Happy New Year - Welcoming Year of the Wood Snake 🐍

We can expect to connect with others intensely since the wood snake enhances compassion and empathy.

I think we could all use a world with more compassion and empathy right now ....
