The Snake is considered the third luckiest sign during this Year of the Dog. It could be a better year than last year. Three peaceful stars are shining on the Snake that may help to reduce potential drama. It may be a good year for marriage and honeymoon and babies. It could also be a good year for career and money. Investments should return well.

But, as always, to balance the energies, there are also two bad luck stars in the Snake’s orbit so be careful of car issues. And avoid red cars if possible. Don’t buy one. And if you already have one, you may want to get a small rabbit charm and keep it on you when you’re driving.

1953 Water Snake Snakes born this year may be impressive at work, resulting in many compliments.

1965 Fire Snake The luckiest of all Snakes during the Year of the Dog. The path seems clear to fortune and investments. Celebrate as often as you can, no occasion is too small. This will help offset temptation.

1977 Earth Snake This might be a good time for Snakes born this year to actively pursue career ambitions, go after it, be aggressive. That would be Kanye West. Keep an eye on Kanye this year. He’s been quietly restoring and regrowing his power for a while now. Male Snakes born this year who do not have straight noses are advised to be extra cautious though. And celebrate a big birthday.

1989 Wood Snake The Year of the Dog is a good opportunity to improve, to learn new things, add to your skill set.

2001 Metal Snake If you know a Snake born this year, maybe your parent or a relative, do not indulge them, do not spoil them and watch them closely to help them avoid mistakes.

Since the Fire is strong during the Year of the Dog, all Snakes should be mindful of lung health, breathing issues, allergies and coughing. Snakes are also advised not to get too cocky, don’t fill yourself, don’t take more than you need—this applies to everything: love, friendship, food, cash. Snakes may also want to limit outside activities during the summer. Heat management, remember, is critical this year.

In March and April, keep your mind on your money and your money on your mind. Otherwise there may be big risks.

Between June 6 and August 6, if you feel bothered and frustrated, especially if you are a female Snake, try carrying a metal cow or rooster charm. It might help.

In July and August, it is recommended that Snakes control their tempers. Holidays should be good for Snakes this year.
