Counting backwards, we can safely deduce that December and January have become the most popular months for conceiving babies! So in December, we are encouraging all newly-wed couples to think seriously about starting a family, as the Year of the Water Snake offers a fantastic opportunity to welcome a particularly extraordinary baby into the world, one who will not only bring tremendous joy and luck for many couples, but quite possibly someone who could one day become a world leader!

The Water Snake is one of the most powerful signs of the Zodiac... charismatic, unassuming and incredibly intelligent. The Tung Sing describes the Water Snake as "the Snake in the Grass"...
This very powerful animal sign only comes around once every 60 years! The last time children were born a Water Snake was in 1953, and before that was in 1893. British Prime Minister Tony Blair is a Water Snake, as was China's Chairman Mao Tse Dong. Both were highly popular leaders who changed the course of world history. Both also originated from humble commoner backgrounds and rose into the clutches of power through their charisma, talent and from their conviction in what they believed was the right way.
Britain's Labor Prime Minister Tony Blair became the youngest Prime Minister to hold office and went down in history as the longest serving Prime Minister under the Labor Government. American Presidents Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower were both Water Snakes, as is Cristina Fernandez, current president of Argentina, Leonel Fernandez (ex-president of the Dominican Republic), Toomas Hendrik Ilves (President of Estonia) and Carlos Mesa (ex-President of Bolivia). But even when they do not wear the suits of political leaders, Water Snakes often make it into the executive ranks of world organizations.
The Chief of the World Bank, CEOs of Hewlett Packard, Procter & Gamble, Hilton Hotels, National Geographic, Nokia, Mercantile Bankshares, Rockefellar & Co, Pfizer and dozens of many others were born in the Water Snake year!
Thus we see that the Tung Sing Almanac accurately predicts that the Water Snake slinks quite naturally into the seat of power. It is for this reason that we highly recommend that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge consider having a baby this coming year. Not only is leadership in the blood and astrological charts of the Water Snake, this little child will get along famously with his parents, particularly with his/her mother Kate. Kate Middleton is a Rooster, and there is almost no better parent/child pairing in the Zodiac than the Rooster/Snake combination!
ARE YOU COMPATIBLE WITH A SNAKE BABY?
So how do you predict if you and your Snake child will get along? We often receive emails and letters from our fans around this time of the year asking: "IS A SNAKE BABY GOOD FOR US IN TERMS OF OUR ASTROLOGICAL COMPATIBILITIES?"
When it comes to affinities, our advice is simple. First, check whether the child has affinity with at least one of the parents and secondly, avoid any direct zodiac clashes with both parents.
Almost all the twelve signs have affinity with the Snake, either astrologically or elementally. This is mainly because the Water Snake is a Water/Fire sign, and almost all signs benefit from Water or Fire in their lives. The only two horoscope signs that do no benefit from Water and Fire are the METAL signs - the Monkey and the Rooster. But for these two animal signs, both have a even more powerful connection with the Snake that overrides this elemental clash.
The Monkey is the Snake's secret friend, and the Rooster is the Snake's ally! Hence the only animal sign who should really think twice before having a Snake Child would be the Boar, as the Snake and the Boar are natural enemies in the Zodiac Wheel. But even in this scenario, there is a silver lining: both can get along harmoniously if the secret friend of either the Snake or the Boar is present within the family.
For example, if you already have a Monkey child or you are married to a Monkey spouse, then this clash is neutralized to a very large degree as the Monkey is the secret friend of the Snake! Likewise, if you already have a Tiger in the immediate family (spouse or other child), this goes a long way towards subduing the effects of this clash.
Another exception where this astrological clash is nullified is if the Boar parent was born in the Snake Hour between 9am to 11am in the morning. If you were born in the Snake Hour then it is the Snake child who will be closest to you! Thus in this case, the Boar parent benefits greatly by having a Snake Child in their life!
To make it easier for you to work out whether the Snake child is good for you, we have summarized the compatibilities of all the twelve animal signs with the Snake Child. This ends Part 1 of Baby Snake 2013. To find out more, you can check out the next post.
