The Year 2013, or the Chinese lunar year "Guei Sih," coincides with the Chinese Zodiac Year of the Snake. The outstanding characteristics of snakes are their remarkable agility, adaptive faculties, and ability to survive. Because the snake comes immediately after the dragon in the Chinese Zodiac order and its contour is similar to that of the dragon, it is often called the "little dragon."
