In this case, experts advise focusing on what the “boss” of the coming year, the Green Wood Snake, likes. First of all, we will find out which gifts are on the red list and will definitely not bring good luck in the New Year, and then we will share with you truly win-win options.
What gifts should you definitely not give for the New Year 2025?
The Green Wood Snake is associated not only with wisdom, but also flexibility, suppleness, elegance and optimism. Therefore, gifts for your loved ones this year should be in maximum harmony with the energy of the patroness of 2025.
Antagonistic characters
In this New Year, it is strongly recommended not to offer figurines or images of animals considered enemies of the Snake: for example, an eagle or a mongoose.

Counterfeits
The Snake is extremely selective and values authenticity and quality, so budget jewelry or branded replica items won’t be the best gift under the tree either.
Gifts that shine
The main element of the coming year is the Tree, so gifts that have at least something to do with the fire that threatens it are also prohibited. Candles or lighters purchased as gifts can simply “burn” your luck in 2025.
Watch
According to popular wisdom, a watch is, in principle, considered a rather dubious gift: for example, it is not recommended to give it to birthday people or relatives, as this can lead to separation . The snake also does not particularly like such surprises: it is believed that a clock in the New Year can bring bad luck to the house.
Wallets or bags
Empty wallets or bags given away even with the best intentions can disrupt the energy of cash flow. If such a gift has already been purchased, it is better to put a coin or small bill in it.

How to please the boss of 2025
Having in front of you a list of “forbidden” gifts, you can now easily decide what exactly to please your family and friends for the New Year. Now remember a few more helpful tips that will help you truly appease the green wood snake.
- For a gift, choose wrapping made of natural fabric, best complemented by a green, gold or brown ribbon. The snake loves natural shades, so it will definitely appreciate this approach.
- The sincerity and good energy of the donor are especially important in the year of the Green Wood Snake, so give a surprise only from the heart and with good intentions.
