2025 — The Year Of The Snake & How To Make Time Work For You By Stepping Out Of The Condition Of Linearity
When we discover spirituality and explore more of who we truly are, why we are here, etc. We learn that the man-made concept of time is an illusion, but we can use it to our advantage unless we unconsciously(!) choose to be a slave to it. Before we saw time as something linear, as something that would rather stress us out. However, we can unlearn that and reframe our relationship with time; what if it is actually fluid, and more feminine? In non-duality teachings it doesn‘t exist at all, there is only the present moment, the eternal Now.
Let me challenge you a little bit 🐍 Future and past are just terms for the logical human mind that is conditioned to that there must be something outside of the present moment. But if you look closely, when does the past „end“ and where does the now begin? And where does the now „end“ and the future begin? I encourage you to ask yourself such questions and to feel how your body and your entire being responds.
When you‘re so immersed in something that you enjoy or in a deep meditative state, do you experience time? Do you experience time passing? I‘d say no, and these are examples of how you can test that time is not what we got taught as children, in school, our families, and in society. Now it is up to you, how do you want to see and work play with time?
Why not use time as something that can work for us instead of the opposite? 2025 is the year of the Snake in the Chinese Zodiac sign. The snake is a symbol of metamorphosis, wisdom, intelligence, mystery, and intuition. A wonderful opportunity for introspection.
Here are some journal prompts to support you with that:
What are the most valuable lessons of 2024?
How do I want to integrate in 2025 what I have learned in 2024?
What can no longer come with me? (feel free to create a little ritual. Imagine a piece of paper written with everything that you want to let go of & visualize it burning in a mystical fire, gone, once and forever. Leaving you for good as you enter the new year)
What am I welcoming and embracing in 2025?
Here is another fun exercise (remember, make it fun!):
Write a letter to yourself. Imagine it is the end of 2025 and you‘re looking back on how everything you have intended for manifested and unfolded even better than you could imagine. Make sure you feel into it — what is your felt experience as you reflect upon this? Let your body and your imagination guide you — put your little ego with human conditioning aside, or hold it in unconditional love and let go and let God. Your true nature already knows. With this practice, you‘re not pretending something. You‘re tapping into what is already available to you.
Remember creation is finished & you are choosing your favorite dishes from the Divine buffet. Let‘s feast 🍝
Have a great start to 2025 and give yourself a big hug of making it thus far 🎆— I‘m speaking especially to anyone of you who had a rather rough time with a lot of darkness. I am proud of you and nothing is finite, even if your fears, doubts, and thoughts say otherwise. They are not true; take these as opportunities to take a deep breath, to take a step back, to ground yourself, and to see through these illusions. Your true nature is always here for you, patiently waiting for you to return and to come back home.
