Snake compatibility

What Snake people are like

You look calm on the outside, but inside you're weighing a great deal. You watch people and situations for a while before judging, so you make few mistakes and your instincts are often right. You don't reveal your thoughts easily, which is why people call you mysterious. You have distinct taste, and you can spot quality. Once you trust someone, you keep them close for a long time.

In love

You don't give your heart away easily, but once you fall, you love deeply and seriously. You notice your partner's smallest changes and look after them with care, though jealousy can creep in and you may want reassurance often.

Animals that fit well

• 丑Ox Three Harmony

  The careful Snake and the steady Ox never rush and are happy to wait for each other. Trust built slowly makes this a pairing that lasts.

• 申Monkey Six Harmony, Punishment

  Two clever signs work well together, but trying to teach each other creates tension. Trust the other's way of doing things and you become a steady pair.

• 酉Rooster Three Harmony

  The discerning Snake and the meticulous Rooster think alike. Plan together and you can carry things out without missing a thing.

Two of the same animal

• 巳Snake Same animal

  You read each other's hearts without a word. You even share the habit of hiding your thoughts, so open up honestly once in a while.

Animals that need some adjusting

• 寅Tiger Punishment, Harm

  The straight-charging Tiger and the roundabout Snake can end up in a standoff while trying to fix each other's methods. State your intentions first so helpful words don't go astray.

• 戌Dog Resentment

  The Snake who rarely shows what's inside can leave the honest Dog with hurt feelings piling up. Share even small things first, and trust grows solid.

• 亥Pig Clash

  The cautious Snake and the bold Pig clash often. If the Snake opens up a little and the Pig gives the Snake time to think, you do fine.

Neutral matches

With Rat, Rabbit, Dragon, Horse, Goat, there is no special pull or clash, so the distance feels comfortable.

One-line advice

Trust takes time to build with you. It helps to see whether the other person keeps their promises.
