After a trip to Portland last weekend and a visit to the Chinese Garden downtown, I came to learn it's the Year of the Snake. Also unbeknownst to me, I came to do discover that the snake just happens to be my Chinese Zodiac animal. For those people who also were born under the Snake star the following applies: "(You're) a natural philosopher, the Snake is blessed with a profound wisdom. Always on a mission, they are dedicated to their chosen quest. Seductive and mysterious, many are blinded by their hypnotic charm. Snakes have an unforgettable elegance and style. The year of the Snake is said to be unpredictable and filled with chaos. A time for inquiry, reflection and exploration." Intriguing, no? Apparently even if you're not born under the Snake star you can use the information regarding the year to your advantage.
