The U.S. Postal Service celebrated the Year of the Snake with the issuance of a Forever stamp on January 16, 2013, in San Francisco, California. Original colorful artwork by Kam Mak was combined with two elements from the previous series of Lunar New Year stamps - artist Clarence Lee's intricate paper-cut snake design and calligrapher Lau Bun's grass-style Kenji character for "snake." The snake is the 6th of the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac associated with the Lunar calendar. People of Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Tibetan, and Mongolian heritage celebrate the Lunar New Year. People born in the Year of the Snake are said to be deeply philosophical, mysterious individuals who are comfortable being alone.
