Snake

My dad found a snake on the counter in my parent's house yesterday.  In January.  In Ontario.

He said "Do you think it's your mom sending us a sign?"  as I was on the other end of the phone googling snake meaning.  I said "I'm searching that right now."

And I found this:

"As snakes shed their skin through sloughing, they are symbols of rebirth, transformation, immortality, and healing. The ouroboros is a
symbol of eternity and continual renewal of life." 

and this:


"In many parts of Africa the snake is looked upon as the incarnation of deceased relatives.
 
My mother just keeps telling us she's around and I love it.
