What Does the Year of the Snake Mean in the Chinese Calendar?

The Snake is the sixth of the twelve animals associated with the Chinese Lunar Year calendar. The YOT Snake comes every 12 years, meaning 2025, and the preceding years are 2013, 2001, 1989, etc. People born in these years are said to be ambitious, successful, intelligent, independent, and charismatic, resembling the characteristics of a snake and its story of how it became one of the 12 Zodiacs.
