Persons born in a tiger year are said to be extremely brave and bold. They show natural authority and audacity and possess inborn leadership qualities. Submission is not part of their personality which is rebellious, impatient and hotheaded. Lack of perseverance sometimes spoils the anticipated success. Due to excessive force, speed and charisma the tiger's private and professional life is often tumultuous. Tigers and tigresses love to fight against superior power structures.

   

Their uncontrolled temper together with their hidden qualities, sensitivity, emotionality and reflectiveness cause them to feel unbalanced and unhappy. Tigers are suspicious and tend to ponder a lot which later leads to impulsive, reckless and premature decisions. However tigers are revered equally by friends and enemies.

Suitable partners for tigers are the honorable horse, the level-headed dragon or the faithful dog.

Famous personalities born in a year of the tiger are:
Marco Polo, Fidel Castro, Ho Chi Minh, Karl Marx, Queen Elisabeth II, Stevie Wonder, Ludwig van Beethoven, the painters Goya, Rembrandt and Renoir.

The year of the tiger could be very dynamic and full of positive and negative surprises. Audacity and bravery increase the possibility of a major break through but be cautious! Too much foolhardiness would be unwise.

Put into practice creative ideas and start new or unfinished projects with positive energy and determination - make use of the dynamics of a tiger year!
