Similarly, Tigers who decide to move from their present employer or are seeking work should consider areas in which they have experience and which also offer the chance to build on their capabilities. Success this year will come from steady and dedicated effort in the areas that Tigers know best.
Finance also requires a steady approach. Tigers should watch their sometimes impulsive nature and take their time when making purchases. There will be many temptations to spend, but hurried decisions could be regretted later, and without discipline, spending levels could creep up. Also, if tempted to speculate or enter into any agreement, Tigers should check the facts and implications and take sound advice. Vigilance is advised this year.
A particular strength of Tigers is their ability to enjoy good relations with many people, and their personable nature will again serve them well this year. In view of some of its vexations, Tigers will value being able to turn to others for advice and should avail themselves of the support and knowledge available to them. If they are concerned by any matter, they should not feel alone.
In addition, Rat years bring good social opportunities and Tigers will enjoy going out and extending their social network. Certain interests can bring them into contact with other enthusiasts and some good connections and friendships can be made. Tigers who are feeling lonely would find joining local groups worth considering. Rat years encourage the development of personal interests and involvement with others. In addition, with their future in mind, Tigers would do well to consider courses of study and other ways in which they could develop their skills and knowledge. What some start this year could bring later (often substantial) rewards.
Tigers will also see much activity in their home life this year and there will need to be good liaison between family members. But, amid all the activity, there will be some pleasing occasions too. Whether celebrating an achievement or a personal milestone, enjoying a holiday (Rat years can offer good travel possibilities) or sharing quality time together, there will be much for everyone to appreciate. Also, by encouraging openness, Tigers can be helped and advised and benefit even more from the good rapport they share with those around them.
Tigers have a talent for coming up with ideas and this year will see no shortage of projects they would like to get underway. However, these do need to be planned and costed carefully and Tigers should be careful not to commit themselves to too many undertakings all at the same time. Rat years require care, focus and discipline.
Tigers like to get on with things, but despite their noble intentions, results could be slow in coming through this year. This is a time for proceeding steadily and for building on their position and knowledge. Rush and risks could backfire and, especially in money matters, care is advised. However, by drawing on the support and goodwill of others, Tigers can be helped in both their current and future activities. This may not be the easiest of years, but it can be a constructive one, particularly as it will enable Tigers to acquire greater knowledge and skills.
Tips for the Year
Proceed carefully. Think through your decisions and focus on your priorities. Also, seize any chances to add to your knowledge. Liaise well with others and take note of their viewpoints and advice.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Ox
Ox years favour tradition and the action-oriented Tiger may be frustrated by the length of time things seem to take as well as the paucity of opportunities. However, while this may be a challenging year, there is good reason for Tigers to take heart. Next year is their own year and what they do now can prepare the way for better times ahead.
Also, while the slow workings of the Ox year may not always suit their personality, there are ways that Tigers can counter some of the more awkward aspects. In particular, they should control their rebellious streak, otherwise there is a risk it could undermine their position as well as reduce the level of support they enjoy. In any tense or awkward situation, they should watch their words and be considered in their response.
At work, Tigers will, as always, be keen to get on with things and get results. But, as many will quickly find, wheels turn slowly in Ox years and they may be frustrated by delays, bureaucracy and petty irritations. Progress will not be swift, but by concentrating on their duties and doing their best in often difficult situations, Tigers will not only have the chance to prove their capabilities, but also to gain valuable insight into their industry. In addition, if training courses or extra duties become available, even if just covering for an absent colleague, they should take full advantage of them. By developing their knowledge and skills, they will be better positioned to benefit when further opportunities arise. With their own year following, effort made now can prepare them for future success.
For Tigers who are seeking work, or a change in their situation, this can be a significant time. Although obtaining a position will not be easy, by widening the scope of what they are considering, they may be able to obtain a position that can extend their experience as well as offer future possibilities. Things tend to happen for a reason in Ox years and developments (and lessons) now can prepare the way for more rapid advance in the Tiger’s own year.
In money matters Tigers again need to be careful, watching spending and making early provision for larger outlays. This is a year for discipline and good management. Also, Tigers should attend to financial paperwork with care. Lapses and delays could work to their disadvantage as well as sometimes be difficult to rectify.
In view of the pressures they may face during Ox years, Tigers should also give some consideration to their own lifestyle and well-being, including their diet and level of exercise, and, if necessary, seek advice on ways to improve. Preserving time for interests and recreation can also be of benefit. Any interest-related skills or additional knowledge gained now can give Tigers the chance to do more in the future.
With their wide interests and engaging manner, Tigers enjoy company and here the Ox year can bring some special times. Many Tigers will find their circle of acquaintances growing and will enjoy the chance to meet new people and attend interesting social occasions. They can build good connections and friendships this year.
Tigers enjoying romance, or who find it this year, will also find that any additional time and attention they can give to the relationship can help strengthen it. However, with the aspects as they are, they need to be careful of lapses and, should a difference of opinion arise, watch their words. Disagreements or a loss of temper could sour relations. Tigers, take note.
In their home life, shared activities and spending time together can make a difference. While Tigers (and others) may be juggling with many commitments, well-planned projects and mutual interests can often be pleasing. A family holiday, too, could do everyone good. However, rather than concentrating everything around a particular time, projects should be spread out over the year and ample time allowed to complete them. Ox years do not favour hurry. Their home can be a valuable sanctuary for Tigers this year, but their domestic life does require good organization and a willingness to adjust as situations require.
In general, the Ox year will have its awkward moments, but with patience and care, Tigers can do much to minimize its more troublesome aspects. It is a year for tact, patience and for Tigers to curb their sometimes rebellious tendencies. But, frustrating though some of the year may be, by adding to their skills, making the most of situations and spending time with those around them, Tigers can see their efforts being rewarded. While not an easy year, this one can nevertheless lay the foundations for better times ahead.
Tips for the Year
Proceed carefully, thinking through your actions and responses. Also, seize any chances to add to your skills and knowledge and involve others in your activities and plans. This may be a challenging year, but its lessons (and potential gains) can be manifold.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Tiger
Many Tigers will feel excited about their own year and be keen to set about their plans with gusto. And, especially for those who have felt held back in recent years, this is a time to concentrate on the now rather than what has gone before. However, while Tigers will have high hopes for their year, to get the best from it they will need to remain disciplined and concentrate on key aims. With focus, planning and effort, this can be a successful and special time.
At work, in view of their recent undertakings and the skills they have acquired, many Tigers will be excellently placed when opportunities arise. And they will. This is a year for progress. Pleasingly, too, many Tigers will have a greater chance to put their strengths to effective use. Their ideas and ability to think round problems or come up with new approaches can prove a real asset. By contributing and being involved, they can come into their own and greatly enhance their reputation.
For those who start the year discontented in their present position or seeking work, again the year can bring important developments. By keeping alert for openings and being swift in making applications, these Tigers can benefit from some good opportunities. Initiative counts for a lot this year and extra effort can often make a difference. With perseverance, commitment and self-belief, a lot can be achieved. Tigers, take note.
Progress at work can also help financially, and some Tigers will enjoy additional good fortune, perhaps through a profitable idea, a gift or a stroke of luck. Tiger years have their surprises and rewards. In addition, some attractive and timely purchases can be made. However, while Tigers can fare well in money matters, they should use any upturn to help their overall position. Whether reducing borrowings, adding to savings or making provision for the future, good management can benefit them both now and in years to come.
In addition, with this being their own year, they should look ahead. Considering their hopes and future aspirations will not only give them something to strive towards but also make them more aware of what they need to do now. The Tiger year can be an important springboard for what lies ahead and is an excellent time to consider, plan and act. It is said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Now is the time to take some steps.
With their enquiring nature, Tigers have wide-ranging interests and again can develop and enjoy them this year. Sometimes new equipment or contacts can open up fresh possibilities. And if a new pursuit tempts them, they should investigate. In their own year, benefits can follow on from many of their activities.
The Tiger year can also bring excellent social opportunities and there will be a lot for Tigers to participate in. Tigers who would welcome new friends or have experienced recent personal difficulty can see their own year ushering in a new chapter, with some finding love and also creating a new social circle. Tiger years can brighten the situation of many.
In their home life, too, Tigers will be keen to forge ahead with plans and, whether making purchases or home improvements or perhaps moving, by carefully considering and costing their options, they can see a lot happen. However, while keen to get things done, they do need to be wary of proceeding too hastily. By allowing additional time and planning, they will often be able to make more suitable decisions.
In addition to the plans and activities Tigers instigate this year, they can also look forward some special moments, especially concerning personal news and family successes. Domestically, Tiger years are busy and gratifying.
In so many ways, this will be an important year for Tigers. It is a time for moving ahead and benefiting from opportunities. Tigers will also benefit from the goodwill and support of others and their own year will give rise to many special occasions as well as allow them to widen their social circle. Tigers have a lot in their favour this year and should focus on their objectives. With purpose, they can enjoy many significant achievements.
Tips for the Year
Take the initiative. Opportunities can open up for you this year. Also, look ahead and give some thought to your future aims. What is started now can take root and in time become significant. Your own year is a special one for you.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Rabbit
In this constructive year, Tigers can make good gains and build on recent achievements. However, while the aspects are encouraging, they will need to rein in the more restless side of their nature. Rabbit years favour consistency and proceeding along established lines, and Tigers who are inclined to rush or take risks will find obstacles in their way. Rabbit years favour thoughtful and more measured approaches.
At work, Tigers will often have the chance to make more of their expertise. This could be through taking on a more specialist role, being offered new objectives or transferring to another position in their place of work. Many can take their career to new levels this year and see their previous commitment and proven skills recognized and rewarded.
There will, though, be some Tigers who feel they could better themselves elsewhere. These Tigers, as well as those seeking work, should keep alert for openings but also talk to experts and contacts and consider other ways in which they could use their skills. With advice and some thought on how they would like to develop their career, they can find some good openings. Work-wise, these can be important and successful times, but they do require a disciplined approach. Tigers who are inclined to rush or ‘cut corners’, beware. Mistakes and lapses will often get picked up, especially as Rabbits, who are masters this year, are so keen on detail and doing everything right. Also, Tigers should not act in isolation this year. It is by working closely with colleagues that they will be able to demonstrate their qualities and potential.
Tigers can fare well financially and many will benefit from a rise in income over the year or receive funds from another source. To make the most of any upturn, they need to plan key purchases and avoid succumbing to too many impulse buys. Here again, a disciplined and careful approach can make so much difference.
Personal interests are favourably aspected and Tigers should set time aside for pursuits they enjoy rather than expect to be on the go all the time. Activities that allow them to get out of doors could be particularly appealing, as could developing new ideas and getting involved in creative activities. Tigers could find themselves on inspired form this year. In some cases, additional instruction or personal study could open up new possibilities.
Their personal life can also bring them considerable pleasure this year. Existing romances, especially those started in the previous Tiger year, can often become more meaningful, while unattached Tigers will have excellent opportunities to meet others. This can be a special year for affairs of the heart.
Rabbit years also favour social activity and Tigers will enjoy becoming involved in the myriad of events that are happening. Tigers are popular company and the social diaries of many will be busier than usual this year.
Tigers will also enjoy sharing their thoughts and activities with family members. Domestically, the Rabbit year can be satisfying and constructive. Adjustments (including to routine) may need to be made as opportunities arise, but good communication will help. Sharing thoughts will also benefit everyone when major purchasing decisions need to be made or problems faced (all years have their share). The more that can be addressed collectively this year, the better. In addition, if Tigers are able to start a new activity, perhaps to do with keep fit or another interest, with members of their household, this could be both beneficial and fun. Rabbit years favour a coming together.
They also encourage Tigers to make the most of themselves. There will be opportunities for them to develop and new possibilities to pursue. However, to fully benefit, Tigers need to be disciplined, focused and prepared to put in the effort. Acting in haste or jumping from one activity to another is not the way to proceed in Rabbit years. Tigers will need to temper their sometimes over-zealous nature. But, with good use of their time, they can make this a personally satisfying year. They will also find themselves in demand and can benefit from socializing and sharing activities with those around them. A satisfying and constructive year.
Tips for the Year
Strive for a good lifestyle balance. Enjoy and develop your interests and allow time for yourself as well as for those who are special to you. There is no need to rush or overcommit yourself this year. Instead, savour the rewards and the opportunities of this encouraging time.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Dragon
Dragon years have energy and bring interesting times for Tigers. Never ones to sit on the sidelines, they will be keen to forge ahead with their plans and can make good progress. However, Dragon years can also see much volatility and Tigers will need to be vigilant and guard against impulsive actions.
Work prospects are especially promising. When obstacles present themselves and solutions need finding, ever-inventive Tigers will rise to the challenge. Their resourcefulness and ability to think out of the box will serve many well this year, bringing success and helping future prospects. However, here lies the sting: while successes can be enjoyed, Tigers should not become overconfident. If they rush or are inclined to take risks, situations could be misread and mistakes made. Dragon years can lay traps for the unwary and Tigers need to remain on their mettle.
There will, however, be opportunities for many Tigers to improve on their position over the year, and those who are seeking work or keen to progress their career in other ways could find the opening they are seeking. Their drive and sense of purpose can deliver this year, but they do need to commit themselves and give of their best. In particular, when making applications, extra effort can strengthen their chances.
With Tigers frequently feeling inspired, this is also a good year for them to follow up their ideas and explore fresh possibilities. If they wish to gain or extend certain skills, follow up new interests or try out activities that appeal to them, they should make the most of what is available. Creative pursuits could particularly appeal, and develop in encouraging ways.
In money matters, care is needed. While income may increase, risks or hurried decisions could bring regret. If tempted to lend, Tigers may find problems occurring. They should check the terms when entering into any new agreement and look after their possessions with care, as a loss could be upsetting. This is very much a year for increased vigilance.
A further area of concern may involve the situation of a relation or a close friend. If difficulties arise, by listening and offering advice, Tigers can often give important assistance. However, should they not feel competent in certain matters, they should not hesitate to call on professional advice.
However, while the Dragon year can have its challenging elements, Tigers can nevertheless enjoy some good times. For the unattached, romance can beckon, with some Tigers meeting their future partner in an unexpected but fortuitous way. Existing romances can often strengthen and some Tigers will settle down and start a family.
All Tigers will welcome the social opportunities of the year and there will be a good mix of occasions to enjoy. However, with communication and dialogue so important this year, Tigers do need to remain aware of the views of others as well as heed any advice they are given. Something a friend could say could be both significant and prophetic.
Similarly, in their home life it is important there is good communication and cooperation between all concerned, otherwise life could be conducted in a whirl of activity and there is a risk that tensions could result. To prevent this, Tigers should preserve quality time to spend with their loved ones and suggest activities that all can appreciate. Giving that extra bit of time and attention can make a big difference this year.
As usual, Tigers will busy themselves with many activities this year and should follow the correct procedures if involved in any hazardous undertaking. Lapses could be to their detriment. This is a time to be vigilant and thorough.
By the end of the year, Tigers could be astonished by all that has happened and the great amount they have done. It is a time for furthering ideas, skills and interests. But throughout, Tigers do need to channel their efforts wisely and carefully. A lot can go well for them, but this is also a year to be mindful and vigilant.
Tips for the Year
Set about your activities in a positive manner, but avoid rush, risk or, in the wake of success, complacency. Also, liaise well with those around you and value time spent with those who are special to you. Extra care and good communication are so very important in this active and lively year.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Snake
A reasonable year ahead. While Tigers can do well – some very well – they may find it best to moderate their approach. Snake years favour steadiness. If Tigers adapt to the rhythm of the year, they can make this a constructive and satisfying time.
At work, this can be an excellent year to consolidate recent gains. By concentrating on their duties and immersing themselves in their present place of work, many Tigers will enjoy a good level of fulfilment. Also, as situations change, there will be the opportunity for many to make greater use of their strengths. Whether they are promoting ideas, taking on additional duties or benefiting from training, they can do themselves a lot of good this year. In addition, those pursuing a particular career could find it helpful to network more, as well as follow developments within their industry. By raising their profile, they will be investing in themselves and their future.
Many Tigers will remain with their current employer over the year and build on their position, but for those who desire change or are seeking work, the Snake year can bring important developments. By widening the scope of their search, many could have the chance to use their skills in new ways. Although this could involve readjustment, the Snake year can do much to highlight their potential.
Tigers can also derive much satisfaction from their personal interests, but rather than spread their attention too widely, they should set themselves some projects and aims for the year. With focus, their interests and recreational activities can do them a lot of good and be that much more enjoyable. Tigers who lead especially busy lifestyles should allow themselves the chance to step off the treadmill every so often. Snake years are times to appreciate the rewards of previous efforts and restore balance to busy lifestyles.
Travel could appeal and, if possible, Tigers should aim to take a holiday over the year. With their adventurous nature, they could enjoy visiting some exciting places.
In money matters, however, they will need to be disciplined. Money can come and go all too easily in Snake years. In addition, financial paperwork will require close attention. Bureaucratic matters may sometimes be troublesome and any Tigers involved in legal dealings may find them becoming protracted. Good advice needs to be sought.
With their active and outgoing nature, Tigers will enjoy the social opportunities of the year, but here too there may be problems. A disagreement or personality clash may occur or jealousy surface, and Tigers should be wary of placing themselves in an awkward or embarrassing position. While usually so expert in relations with others, they will find Snake years require care, tact and discretion. Tigers, take note. This can be a pleasing year, but it is not one for lapses or risks.
Domestically, Tigers will have quite a few ideas and projects to pursue, and if they allow time for these to take shape, they will be pleased with the outcomes. Again, the best results will come through planning and proceeding in measured ways. Also, the costs (and disruption) of some activities could be far greater than anticipated. Snake years can be expensive. Tigers, be warned and make ample allowance for this.
In addition, Tigers will give important support to their loved ones during the year and their advice and encouragement will be greatly appreciated. With travel likely to appeal, time away can also be valued and do everyone good.
Tigers enjoy doing a lot at a fast pace, but Snake years encourage them to pause, take stock and build steadily. Rather than rush or be over-ambitious, it is a year to proceed calmly and find greater fulfilment in what takes place. Skills and experience gained now can often have important long-term value. Tigers will need to be aware and attentive in their relations with others, but overall will be pleased with how their ideas and plans develop. And the year’s more moderate pace will allow them to appreciate that much more too.
Tips for the Year
Concentrate on the present rather than try to rush ahead. Nurture your strengths, spend time on your interests and value those around you and the rewards your efforts bring.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Horse
Tigers are quick to latch onto new developments and will find the Horse year full of possibility. As Virgil noted, ‘Fortune favours the bold,’ and in Horse years, fortune favours bold and enterprising Tigers. These are favourable times for them and they will be able to make the most of emerging opportunities. For any Tigers who are unhappy with their current situation, this is a time for change. With resolve, effort and willingness, many can see their prospects substantially improve.
However, while the aspects are encouraging, to get results Tigers will need to work hard and be persistent. Horse years require application. Those who let chances slip or lack commitment could miss out.
At work, Tigers will have the chance to make more of the skills and expertise they have recently gained. As a result, when staff movements occur and promotion opportunities arise, many will be excellently placed to benefit. In addition, Horse years often see much activity in the workplace, and by being involved in what is going on, Tigers will not only increase their influence but also have more chance to demonstrate particular strengths. The active nature of the Horse year suits their psyche and, enthused and supported, they can make important progress.
For Tigers who feel their prospects are limited where they are and would welcome greater scope, as well as those seeking work, the Horse year can again open up good possibilities. By keeping alert, making enquiries and being persistent, these Tigers can secure a position which offers a platform on which to build. Horse years require effort, but do give Tigers the chance to do well.
Progress made at work can also help income and some Tigers will also benefit from a bonus or gift. These can be improved times financially, although to benefit fully, Tigers need to manage their outgoings and budget for their needs and plans.
Another positive feature of the year will be the way Tigers can develop their ideas. Whether in a professional capacity or with their personal interests, whenever they have something in mind that they feel has potential, they should take it further. Horse years can be inspiring ones and Tigers can benefit from what they do during them. With this in mind, Tigers skilled in creative pursuits should, if relevant, promote their talents. However, while this is an encouraging year, Tigers do need to persevere and not let setbacks or disappointments weaken their resolve. This is no time to be half-hearted or give up too easily, especially in view of the potential gains to be had.
Horse years can also see considerable social activity and Tigers will enjoy the events they attend and the chance to meet new people. Their interests in particular can have a good social element.
For the unattached, affairs of the heart are splendidly aspected. New acquaintances may quickly become special and existing romances more meaningful. These can be busy, exciting and often passionate times. Tigers who start the Horse year discontented will find that positive action can often brighten their outlook. Horse years have great possibilities.
Tigers can also look forward to some pleasing developments domestically. There will be good reasons for a celebration and a holiday and/or visits to special attractions will also be much appreciated.
With Tigers on enthusiastic form this year, domestic changes may also be on the agenda, but these do need to be considered carefully and ample time allowed for them, especially if practical undertakings are involved. The Horse year will be busy enough without adding further pressure or starting too many projects all at once. Tigers, take note.
Overall, the Horse year can be a good one for Tigers. It is one for commitment and hard work, but the drive, ideas and personal qualities Tigers so often show can help them make it both active and fulfilling. Important progress can be made, as this is a year favouring involvement and moving forward. Relations with others can bring Tigers considerable happiness and they will often be buoyed up by the support and goodwill they enjoy. They have much in their favour this year.
Tips for the Year
Be determined and persistent. Rewards can be substantial this year, but need striving for. However, while this is a year for effort, it is a lively one too and will bring opportunities. Enjoy what it offers you.
Tiger Fortunes in the Year of the Goat
An interesting year ahead, although Tigers will need to keep their wits about them. As they will quickly find, in the Goat year even the best-laid plans do not always proceed in the manner intended.
However, while Tigers will need to show some flexibility, in some respects this year will suit them. Tigers enjoy rising to the challenge, particularly when ideas are needed or there are solutions to be found, and they also appreciate the satisfying outcomes their efforts bring.
This will be especially true in work matters. Over the year Tigers will be able to put their skills and creativity to good use and many will play an increasingly important role in their workplace. Their experience and input, including their ability to think out of the box, could prove a real asset and result in a greater role or promotion. However, with a lot happening, they do need to remain focused and concentrate on priorities. This is no year to go off on tangents or be diverted into less helpful matters – always a risk in this active year.
In addition, Tigers should pay close attention to their relations with their colleagues and be aware of office politics. The year requires them to tread mindfully.
For Tigers who are seeking change or a new job, the Goat year has good possibilities. Many Tigers will be able to secure a position that not only offers change but also a welcome challenge. The early days could prove daunting, but many Tigers will quickly prove themselves and relish the chance to use their skills in new ways. Goat years can bring some unexpected developments, and by making the most of them, Tigers can really benefit.
With their inquisitive nature, Tigers have extensive interests, and if something intrigues them this year, they should follow it up and see what develops. Those who lead busy lifestyles in particular should ensure time is set aside for recreational pursuits and, if lacking regular exercise, take advice on activities that may be suitable.
Travel could also appeal. Tigers should take a holiday this year if possible, as they will enjoy the chance to visit some often special attractions. In addition, they could be tempted by a wide range of events and enjoy the opportunities and sometimes unexpected invitations the Goat year offers.
With the year’s many activities, spending will be high, however, and Tigers need to manage their resources carefully. A lot can happen quickly and they should be aware of – and make allowance for – the cost of some undertakings. Without discipline, some economizing might be needed later. In addition, they should keep their belongings safe. A loss could be upsetting.
Domestically, this can be a busy year and there needs to be good liaison between everyone concerned and time set aside for sharing. If not, sometimes domestic life could be conducted at a heady pace and pressures and tiredness give rise to moments of tension. Tigers (and others) need to be mindful of this and aim for a good lifestyle balance. Also, plans and situations can be apt to change in the Goat year and flexibility will be required.
Socially, this can be a generally favourable year, although with so much going on, Tigers need to take careful note of the views of friends and of the arrangements being made. Being preoccupied, distracted or overcommitted could cause some awkward moments. This year, rather than conduct so much at a fast pace, Tigers should aim to slow down a little and simply enjoy spending time with others.
In general, Goat years offer good possibilities, but Tigers do need to be on their mettle, as situations can change quickly. By being flexible and aware and acting smartly, however, they can benefit from the developments of the year. At work, their ideas and resourcefulness can impress others, although they do need to remain focused and channel their efforts wisely. To try to overdo things or spread their energies too widely could reduce their effectiveness. Personal interests can bring much pleasure, but, with the year often being busy, Tigers do need to pay close attention to their relations with others and preserve some quality time for their family and friends. This can be a satisfying year, but it requires mindfulness of others and good time management.
