The Snake is associated with beauty and wisdom.  They appear languid and serene, but they are always mentally active.  They are deep thinkers and give very good advice - but they cannot take it.  They are capable of lying to get out of a scrape.  Snakes are often psychic or interested in the psychic, the mystical or the religious, and are linked with esoteric knowledge and spiritual discovery.
