Credited from: SCMP

  • The Year of the Snake is often viewed unfavorably in Chinese culture, leading to decreased birth rates compared to the auspicious Year of the Dragon.
  • In 2013, there was a drop of 1.97 million births in China during the Year of the Snake, compared to the previous year.
  • Children born in this year are stereotypically referred to as “sons who collect debts,” indicating a belief that they may bring financial challenges.
  • Although commonly associated with negative traits, some view snakes as symbols of intelligence and wisdom, citing successful individuals born under this sign.
  • Ultimately, while cultural beliefs influence perspectives on fertility, a child's future depends on parental education and their own efforts rather than their zodiac sign.
