Chinese New Year (also called Lunar New Year) is a time to welcome longevity, wealth, and prosperity and to eliminate negative “chi” from the past. In Chinese tradition, each year is dedicated to a specific animal. The Snake is welcomed back in 2013 after the Year of the Dragon (2012). Each of the animals is thought to bestow their characteristics to the people born in their year. Snake people represent the symbol of wisdom. They are intelligent and wise, and are usually regarded as great thinkers.
