Predictions by Master Paul Ng 伍子明
For January 29, 2025 End February 16, 2026 

In 2025, the Year of the Wood Snake will be marked by challenges but also opportunities for growth and improvement. Despite high temperatures, fires, and ongoing international conflicts, sectors like real estate, healthcare, education, internet services, clothing, and wood industries will thrive. While banking, insurance, logistics, tourism, hardware, and automotive industries may face difficulties, technological advancements in AI, big data, and robotics promise significant progress. Embrace the challenges as opportunities for innovation and resilience, focusing on steady growth and strategic investments in thriving sectors.

本年為下元九運第二年，以「皇極經世」之易卦推算，從一九八四至二零四三年共六十年行的是「火風鼎」卦。每卦分六爻，每爻管十年，故二零二四年即為「鼎」卦之第五爻第二年，為「離為火」卦。世界氣候更炎熱和多火災，政治也持續紛亂。世界局勢，先反覆後安定。大利地產、醫療、教育、網路、製衣、木材等。較不利銀行、保險、物流、旅遊、五金、汽車等行業。高科技有突破，但尤其在人工智能和大數據發展。機械人技術更進步。註：世間萬物，陰盛陽衰、陰衰陽起。陰中有陽，陽中有陰，互尅互存，始有生機。能明其規律，則做事「事半功倍」，反之則徒勞無功、一事無成。希望這篇預言，能與讀者朋友指引更好的生命。
