The Story of How Snake became one of the 12 Lunar Animals!

The Chinese tradition states that, the snake was a part of the race held by the emperor to determine the 12 positions of the Lunar calendar. In the race to cross the fast-flowing river, the snake coiled itself to the hoofs of the horse, which in fright flied the race. The snake then cross the finishing line to become the 6th animal in the Lunar calendar.
