2025 Christmas Island Year of the Snake $1 Postal Numismatic Cover

This Postal Numismatic Cover is highly collectable, featuring a pictorial envelope with stamps from the Lunar New Year of the Snake stamp issue.

The Lunar Year of the Snake begins on 29 January 2025 and ends on 16 February 2026. The enigmatic Snake is the sixth animal in the 12-year cycle, and previous Snake years include 1929,1941,1953,1965,1977,1989,2001 and 2013. Those born in a Snake year tend to be intuitive, introverted, sympathetic and wise, with a tendency to become jealous and suspicious. Snakes are most compatible with those born under the Ox and Rooster and least compatible with the Tiger and Pig. In 2025, lucky numbers for Snakes are 2,8 and 9; lucky colour are black, red and yellow and the lucky flower is the orchid or cactus.

The stamps are inspired by the ancient tradition of Feng Shui Snake statues displayed in homes and businesses to attract wealth and good fortune. They show a Gold Coin Snake and a Gold Inglot Snake.
