巳 The Year of the Snake

Like many East Asian countries, Japan uses the 12-animal Chinese zodiac.

2025 is the year of the Snake 🐍

The kanji for "snake" is usually 蛇 (hebi).

However the kanji for animals in the Chinese Zodiac are different.

Snake is 巳.

Fanart of @catominor’s ocs, LFC and Martinus. Tried to make a manuscript tradition for the fake scholarship to be about but gave up when it came to background, what to write exactly, and marginalia. The colours also aren’t that good but I tried scanning and photo and this is the best I could get :(.

道 (dō) “Way”, “Route”, “The Tao”

This is the “-dō” in the Japanese martial arts of judō, kendō and aikidō, as well as shodō (calligraphy), sadō (tea ceremony) and many others. 

Loosely translated, it means “way”, “route”, “path” or “doctrine”. 

My calligraphy teacher said that studying a Japanese art is considered similar to taking a journey up a mountain. The summit is the refinement of oneself, and there are many ways to do this. Even though the paths are different, the final destination is the same.

道 is also the “Tao” (or “Dao”) of the Tao Te Ching, the natural order of the universe. It cannot be comprehended conceptually, but must be lived and experienced every moment of the day. If we live in tune with the universe and “go with the flow” we will have the chance for great self-actualisation. 

This one-off calligraphy work is able on my Etsy shop here.
