Boy & Snake

In Chinese Astrology, the Snake is the symbol of wisdom. The people born during the Year of the Snake are said to possess a strong, charismatic presence and a charm which has been describe as "bewitching" or "beguiling." With a penetrating eye and attention to the desires of their conquests, they're known as experts in the art of seduction.

These are clever, intelligent people who take time to formulate their ideas and opinions. Even when they are at their laziest, their minds are working overtime, laying their schemes and hatching their plots for the future.

Snakes are notoriously good looking and like to project the best image of themselves that they can. Men of the sign have elegant and stylish taste in clothes; sexy, seductive and always have a bit of the dandy about them.


In Japan, those wishing to pay someone a compliment and acknowledge his beauty are accustomed to say: "My dear, you are a real snake!" -- a pleasantry most likely to be misinterpreted in the West.
