The Year of the Wood Snake: The Final Shedding
2025, the Year of the Wood Snake, has been a year of brutal shedding. My son, an Earth Snake (born 12/18/89), has been living out the darkest chapters of this prophecy. He was bitten by a rattlesnake at age seven, and today, he sits behind bars, falsely accused by the same "forces that be" that have sought to cage our family’s spirit for generations.
The Wood Snake year is about the "tightening" before the release. It is the moment in the cavern where the pressure is highest. But even in this darkness, the Rasa (the divine essence) is moving.
The Dragon’s Egg and the Dolphin’s Song: When Prophecy Becomes Reality
I have spent decades carrying a story. I started writing it in 1987 and published it in 2007—a story of Xandrah, a Golden Dragon mother taken by the cold "minds of science," and her son Oyasin, left to find his way out of the caverns of Hate, Fear and Greed.
I didn't realize then that I was writing my own future.
2024 - The Year of the Wood Dragon, and I being a Wood Dragon born June/1964
2024 - The Sacred White Buffalo born June/2024
2025 - The Year of the Wood Snake, and my son an Earth Snake being born December/1989
The Signs in the Sea and Sky
In 2024, the Wood Dragon year, we saw the birth of the White Buffalo, Wakan Gli.
And then in 2025, the "minds of science" (SpaceX) landed their Dragon capsule in the ocean. As it bobbed in the water, two dolphins—the "Swimming Beings" from my book—rose to greet the "Dragon Egg" from Space X. Xandrah is a dragon and Oyasin's Mother. In The Last of the Ancient Earth Keepers published in 2007, Oyasin flew out to meet his mother, and upon seeing the Sacred White Buffalo that his mother always spoke, all of creation sang out, ... "Mitakuye Oyasin! He is here! He is Here! Someone Tell the Swimming Beings!

When I wrote that Oyasin would hear the call of "Mitakuye Oyasin" (All My Relations) as he met the dolphins, I was tapping into the "Juice of Life" that connects 1987 to 2026. These aren't coincidences. They are the Rasa Shastra of the soul—the alchemy of turning the "lead" of trauma and false accusations into the "gold" of a New Earth.


2026: The Fire Horse and the Rainbow Warriors
We are exiting the year of the Snake and entering the Year of the Fire Horse.
The Snake was about the truth coming to light through the shedding of skin.
The Fire Horse is about the Courage to Gallop without hesitation.
The system that harmed Xandrah, my son, and his child is being brought down by the weight of its own "cold science." As the "Fire Dragons" release their dangerous ways, we—the Good Dragons and Rainbow Warriors—are stepping up.
My return to the mat is an act of defiance. Every breath I take is a prayer for my son’s freedom and a claim on the prophecy I was gifted 39 years ago. We are no longer in the cavern. We are the ones the "Swimming Beings" have been waiting for.
Mitakuye Oyasin. We are all related. We are all returning.





My son, as an Earth Snake, is currently doing his personal hardest work of transmutation. In Native American wisdom, Snake medicine isn't just about shedding; it is about the ability to swallow poison and turn it into medicine. By sitting in that "cavern" of the corrupt system, he is literally transmuting the "poison" of the old world to bring light and freedom back into his own life.
The Transmutation Prayer: From the Cavern to the Gallop
To be spoken aloud, preferably while standing on the Earth or your mat, facing the rising sun.
Grandmothers, Grandfathers, Ancient Earth Keepers,
I stand here as Xandrah, the Wood Dragon who is caged by the "Minds of Science."
I call upon the spirit of Wakan Gli, the White Buffalo, to witness this moment of truth.
To my son, the Earth Snake:
You are not a prisoner of a system; you are the Medicine within it.
As you were bit by the Rattlesnake at age seven, you were initiated into the power of the Great Transmuter.
I speak to your cells now: Take the poison of the false accusations, the greed, and the hate, and turn it into the Gold of Truth. By the power of Mitakuye Oyasin—All My Relations—
In this Year of the Fire Horse, the gates of the cavern must open.
The "Minds of Science" cannot cage the spirit of the Willow Tribe.
Every wall built on lies is now crumbling under the weight of the Snake's Shedding.
I call upon the Fire Horse to provide the unhesitating speed for the walk into freedom for all Warriors on the Rainbow Bridge.
Let the prophecy be fulfilled.
There is so much more to this story...
