YEARS of the SNAKE

1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001

The typical SNAKE born person is smooth and sinuous, sensual and sophisticated, refined and wise and, above all, enigmatic. SNAKE people are laid back and never seem hurried. They usually go for what they want and get it.

Wise and meditative, the SNAKE may lie in coils for hours and then effortlessly dart out his or her tongue. SNAKE people usually know what they want and go and get it in their own good time with apparent ease, and certainly without hurrying. At their own chosen time, they may also shed their skins and take up something completely new. This ties in with SNAKE people's secretive and mistrustful side: others may be put off by the way they are never let into the confidence of a SNAKE person. SNAKE people may like to show off their social side, but they have a strong need to be left alone, too, and they also need to rest quietly after periods of activity. Passionate and strongly sexed, SNAKEs are attracted to elegant, refined partners, but they are deeply jealous and can be dauntingly possessive.

In the SNAKE household, refinement prevails; in decorations and choice of furnishings, quality comes before quantity every time. Though red is the color associated with the SNAKE sign, if SNAKEs choose to use it in their decorative schemes it will be applied subty -- muted shades conform the SNAKEs sense of stylish elegance. Textures are chosen for their sensual feel, furniture for its deep comfort and artifacts for detail and effect, which together spell luxury. One house never seems to be enough for SNAKEs; they either move several times or have more than one home.
