Unlike Western perceptions of the Snake as a dubious creature at best, in ancient China the Snake was associated with wisdom and aesthetic beauty. A person graced with the Snake personality may appear languid and serene, but inside their mind is always spinning at hundreds of revolutions per minute. They are great thinkers, and excel at giving advice, even if they are no good at accepting it. Snakes are capable of bending the truth to aid their circumstances. Their ranks also contain a disproportionate amount of those with psychic talents of some sort. The female Snake is witty and humorous, and can cut rivals down to size with just the right well-turned phrase from her forked tongue. You are also captivatingly beautiful, and are used to getting your own way in things -- which is why you are capable of throwing a temper tantrum or two if balked on the odd occasion. You are free of the vice of false modesty, as you have it, flaunt it, and make no bones about it. You prefer your home space to be an inviolate nest of comfort, as place to recharge from the stresses of the day. Those who wrong you will meet with intense vengeance somewhere along the line, as you are never quick to forget a slight. You have a feminine wisdom that is swift to penetrate to the root cause of every phenomenon. The male Snake is driven to success, and may exhibit all the classic symptoms of the poor loser if balked at any point in your ascent to the top. You are a hedonist of the first water, always trim and neat, tidy and well groomed -- you enjoy playing the field and will angle adroitly to prevent being tied down by responsibilities, whether of a romantic nature or not. You are influential in higher circles and can come off as a bit of a snob upon introduction to new faces. You are romantic and passionate, and have a killer sense of humor, with which you bait your attractive traps. You enjoy frequenting casinos, but you should learn to curb your gambling fixation, as you never manage to walk away from the table ahead of the game. ¡¡ · 1.56" in diameter, 2.5mm in thick. · Encapsulated in clear plastic case for perfect protection |
