Althoughthe snake nowadays has a slightly negative connotation in Western cultures, we see that, like the Bible's evil tempter, this negative image is actually quite recent in the grand scheme of modern history and was especially uncommon!
The aura surrounding the animal is indeed quite different in Asia, Africa, and even America, where snakes are sometimes seen assymbols of fertility, power, rebirth, sexuality, but also wisdom, foresight, eternity. Perhaps it is this very ambiguity that makes the snake symbol so fascinating! It represents danger as much as wisdom, fear as much as tranquility!
