The Japanese word hebi translates as "snake" and is a single kanji word. With the right context hebi can refer to the "Year of the Snake". However, if you are looking for "Year of the Snake" as a stand-alone design and want no possible ambiguity then consider using Year of the Snake (hebidoshi).
Each design is Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase's hand-brushed calligraphy of the word or phrase on this page, delivered as a PDF you can print. Every PDF includes the line art, so a tattoo artist or a craftsperson can work from the outline as well as the brushed image.
