Happy Chinese New Year! Today is the first day of the 2013 in the Chinese Lunar calendar. This year is the year of the Snake.
Ancient Chinese wisdom says a Snake in the house is a good omen because it means your family will not starve. This could be taken metaphorically to mean that a Snake could never have a problem with his family starving because he is such a great mediator, making him good at business. Or it could mean that a Snake would be willing to sacrifice his possessions, something the Snake has a lot of, in order to pay for his family’s food. Any way it is interpreted is representative of the Snake’s character and is a measure of the value he puts on his material wealth. The Snake is keen and cunning, quite intelligent and wise.
You are a Snake if you were born in 1905, 1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, & 2001
