I understand.  

Snakes could symbolise major changes taking place within you and in your life.

Between 1985-2001 I had so many snake dreams I quit counting. In some they terrified me, in some they mesmerised me with their eyes, one snake had turquoise+purple eyes. After meditation, talking with people and research online and offline, snakes symbolise rebirth - the shedding of the skin is symbolic of a new life and in that period I changed so much as a person, also the spiritual awakening as my psychic abilities grew. Another key point is to understand how you feel during the dream, if the snake scared you, maybe you are afraid of change at some level. Examine your fears and realise that change is constant.

Among Hindus snake dreams are very auspicious as Shiva has a snake, and is also symbolic of destruction of the old and the establishment of a new order.
