Snake symbolism is often associated with transformation, rebirth, immortality, and protection. Historically, serpents and snakes represent fertility or a creative life force. In ancient Egypt, the serpent was seen as a symbol of royalty and divine power. In Greek mythology, snakes were a sign of healing and renewal, symbolised by the staff of Asclepius. Wikipedia
