Chinese New Year is coming (Jan 29).
No we don't celebrate it here in our rural town, but it's a big celebration in Manila.
from Smithsonian: so what is the year of the Wood Snake?
The Chinese Lunar New Year begins January 29, 2025, and starts the Spring Festival season that ends fifteen days later on the evening of the Lantern Festival. The Chinese zodiac rotates through a 12-year cycle of animals and the traditional five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. 2025 is the Year of the Wood Snake.
The Met Museum has a video about how to write it, in Chinese calliography: This year is the Year of the snake: Specifically the Wood Snake.
