Background
A description of the experience
Whilst serpents are a more generally universal symbol of energy, snakes are specifically human related symbolism. We have followed a number of false leads and dead ends on this symbol. It appears as both a Totem group symbol and as a symbol marking spots that are or were once particularly potent.
In the end, and we may be wrong on this as there is a great deal of conflicting evidence, we have come to the conclusion the Snake represents the Element of the Earth.
