Year of the Snake

People born in the year of the snake are always calm and collected, and they are realistic idealists.

They have an image of being cool and intelligent, but also secretive and don't reveal their true feelings, so they're often seen as cold. However, because they have a quick wit and a keen observation, they actually have an excellent sense of humour. They're like the type of game where the fun is apparent once you get used to it.

In addition, they are very particular about what they decide on, and have a tenacity to persevere until satisfied with the decision. However, when it comes to interpersonal relationships, they tend to be seen as persistent because they always hold onto the unpleasant things that people have done to them.

To summarise, they are well prepared, proud, ambitious, caring, logical.
