The name goes into the enquiry for you. Say where it goes and how big, and the drawing comes back before anything is booked.
What it means
In Japanese work the snake is a guardian: it protects, wards off illness and bad luck, and is associated with good fortune. It is not a warning.
That is the opposite of the Western reading, where the snake comes from Genesis and means temptation. The two can be drawn similarly enough that people read yours the other way, which is worth settling before the drawing is finished.
