Meaning
The Snake brings complications and detours: the path to your goal winds instead of running straight. It can point to a clever, perhaps jealous rival, or to temptation and desire. The Snake is also wise — it knows how to navigate tricky terrain. Stay alert, trust your instincts and read the small print.
Love & relationships
A rival, a love triangle, or strong attraction and desire. Complications may arise, so keep your eyes open.
Work & money
Office politics, red tape or a roundabout route to your goal. Strategic thinking will get you there.
Advice
Take the winding road with care — be clever, not cynical.
As a house in the Grand Tableau

As a person
