Sea snakes primarily sense their environment through a combination of vision and chemoreception. They possess well-developed eyes that allow them to see underwater, even in low light conditions.

What does it mean when a snake bites a woman on her breast?
<p>To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you. Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. Alternatively, the snake may be seen as phallic and thus symbolize temptation, dangerous and forbidden sexuality. In particular, to see a snake on your bed suggests that you are feeling sexually overpowered or sexually threatened. You may be inexperienced, nervous or just unable to keep up. If you are afraid of the snake, then it signifies your fears of sex, intimacy or commitment. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted. As a positive symbol, snakes represent healing, transformation, knowledge and wisdom. It is indicative of self-renewal and positive change.
To see breasts in your dream symbolize primal nourishment and your need to be nursed and care for. The breasts represent motherhood, nurturance, and infantile dependency. Alternatively, breasts indicate sexual arousal and raw energy.
These are interpretations of the symbols from DreamMoods.com. I can try to put both of the interpretations together. For example, if you're being bitten on the breast by a snake it can symbolize hidden fears or worries about nuturing others. Such as present or future children. It could also mean fears about the meeting of your own emotional needs. I don't know you or your situation so I'm not sure which route to take, so I'll leave the rest of the interpretation up to you. I'm sorry if it doesn't help much. <p>
