Journal Prompts for the Year of the Snake: Shedding What No Longer Serves You

The Year of the Snake is a time for transformation, self-reflection, and growth. Just as a snake sheds its skin to renew itself, we too can use this energy to let go of habits, beliefs and situations that no longer support our well-being.

Use these journal prompts to guide your personal journey of introspection and release.

Reflecting on the Past

1. What have I been holding onto (physically, emotionally, or mentally) that feels heavy or burdensome?

2. In what ways have I outgrown certain relationships, habits, or environments?

3. What lessons from the past year can I carry forward, and what can I leave behind?

   
   

Embracing Transformation

4. What changes am I most afraid of making, and why?

5. If I could start fresh, what is one thing I would completely let go of today?

6. How can I embrace the idea of shedding as a positive, natural part of my growth?

   
   

Focusing on Well-Being

7. What habits or routines currently support my physical, emotional, and mental health? Which do not?

8. When I think about my well-being, what would an ideal day look like? How can I get closer to that vision?

9. What small but meaningful action can I take today to support my overall well-being?

   
   

Exploring Intuition and Inner Wisdom

10. What is my intuition telling me to release, even if it feels uncomfortable?

11. How can I create more space for stillness and self-reflection in my life?

12. What does my “inner snake” (my deep, intuitive self) want to shed this year?

    
    

Looking to the Future

13. What version of myself do I want to grow into by the end of 2025?

14. How will letting go of the old make space for the new in my life?

15. What is one goal or dream I can focus on this year that aligns with my true values?

    
    

Bonus Prompts: Creative Reflection

• Write a letter to your “old self,” thanking them for the lessons they’ve taught you and letting them know it’s time to move on.

• Imagine yourself as a snake shedding its skin—what does the process feel like, and what new skin are you stepping into?

• Create a list of affirmations that support your journey of release and renewal (e.g., “I release what no longer serves me” or “I am open to transformation”).

  
  

Take your time with these prompts, allowing the Year of the Snake to inspire growth and renewal. Remember, shedding what no longer serves you creates space for the life you truly desire. 🐍✨
