Rattlesnake - My Messenger?

About a week ago I was working away at my desk, got up and came zooming out of my office only to find this guy stretched across the threshold. Stopped me in my tracks. I just thought that it had made it's way somehow into my office. Others think it was put there deliberately because of the rarity of rattlesnakes where I live. Now I believe it was a totem, or animal familiar come to send me a message to beware. I didn't listen, and although not bit by this uninvited guest did get bit by my own hubris soon after. Next time I'll heed the warning.
