The Snake is the sixth animal of the Chinese Zodiac. According to legend, the Jade Emperor decided to assign twelve animals to the Zodiac. The announcement went out to the entire land. The order of the animals would be determined by which one arrived at his palace first. Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, and Dragon were the first five to arrive, and Snake followed soon after.

People born under this sign inherit the agility, durability, and wisdom of this animal, but can also be perceived with suspicion and fear. Snake individuals can also be very private and avoid large gatherings; it is easy for them to operate from the fringes, making them great observers. They are also known for their infinite patience and ability to act or strike when the timing is right.
