Rattlesnake

There are few things more terrifying than an encounter with a rattlesnake. 

This large venomous serpent ignites fear, with its intimidating rattle and fangs

 extended ready to strike. 

However, while the rattlesnake’s bite can be dangerous, it is rarely fatal to humans.  

The rattle consists of segments of keratin that clatter at the end of its tail.  

The rattlesnake will further warn its enemies with a hiss as it coils its body and

 postures its head in defense.  

This snake represents your primal instincts.  

Its message is to learn how to use your voice to speak up whenever needed.  

Embrace any inclination to stand up for yourself.  You have a right to be heard!  (S. Finelli)
