It's almost 2001, the year of the snake. I've done a little research using the Chinese "koyomi" calendar for the 13th year of Heisei, the year of the snake, in order to let you know what kind of year you're about to have.

The first thing you should know about 2001 is that it is a bad year for cutting wood. It is also bad for trials and suing, so you'd best stay out of trouble. However, it is a good year for starting new things (presuming you don't have to cut any wood to start them).

People born in this year will be beautiful people with deep knowledge. They will like to treat everybody and be a volunteer. Their bad points will be stubbornness and jealousy.
