@Kasandra I’m an Earth Snake too! 
or for my primal zodiac self… a… jellyfish. This wil be fun seeing how these fit my personality. I hope I don’t come across as venomous though!
EDIT:
The little cogs in this funny little brain of mine have been spinning non-stop since I dipped my pinkie toe into this challenge. I already knew that my Chinese zodiac was Year of the Snake. So that would make me an Earth Snake. Which I was cool with as I have loved snakes all my life. But I’m not going to lie that at first I was a little disappointed when I found out that my Primal Zodiac Animal with a mix of my eastern and western zodiacs of Virgo and Snake was a… jellyfish. I felt like it was a little bit of an anti-climax. Huh. A jellyfish… really?
But the aspects of the four of these together:
A Virgo: patient, kind, hard-working, reliable, creative, picky, stubborn, uptight, overthinking and critical.
Earth: practical, loyal, materialistic and inflexible.
A snake: intelligent, wise, charming, alluring, deep-thinking, determined, possessive, distrustful and jealous.
A jellyfish: intellectual but cautious.
To be associated with two venomous creatures in my zodiac. Does that make me a toxic and nasty person? Am I filled with poisonous venom? Is that a bad thing?
Then my mind started thinking hmmm snakes and jellyfish… some species can be highly venomous and extremely dangerous, especially if provoked; basically don’t mess with me kind of vibe.
So this got me thinking why is it that some snakes and jellyfish use venom? According to our most beloved knower of all things Google the simple answer is: 1. for foraging - overpowering their prey and 2. for self-defence against potential predators, in a nutshell getting what they want and as a form of potent protection.
Maybe we all need to harness our inner venom. 2022 is supposed to be all about me and my onesies. All about healing myself after escaping that 15 year emotionally abusive relationship to a using, lying cheating, narcissistic skeez-bag.
So this all gave me inspiration for something along very similar lines to my Emotional Healing Spell Jar. Stay tuned. I’ll be busy this weekend!
Here’s what I came up with…
