Snake 蛇

The Snake is quiet intelligence: patience, strategy, and a talent for moving only when it matters.

The Snake is the cycle's strategist of timing: patient, watchful and economical with movement. It reads as intelligence, composure and the ability to wait for the right moment.

The shadow is secrecy and detachment: the Snake can hide the plan from the people it affects. The useful reading is patience — the chart shows whether it becomes wisdom or distance.
