An in-depth personality reading, likes and dislikes, love and work styles, and well-known people born in this sign.
Snakes tend to think deeply and read people and situations well. You may not show your hand quickly, but you know where you stand. Focused and resilient, you often become an expert in your field. Calm on the surface with strong feelings underneath, you trust deeply once trust is earned. Your guard protects you, and learning to open up a little helps too.
The Snake (Si) shedding its skin symbolises wisdom, healing and transformation.
