Tiger Chinese Horoscope

For the Tiger, the Dragon is the Swizz army knife of any lunar cycle, with a tool for every occasion, making you mentally sharper, better able to think on your feet and can enhance all aspects of communication. For the last 12 months, you have been under the Dragon's influence, but with the Year of the Dragon ending next week, making the most of its influence across all aspects of your life is paramount. Meanwhile, there is a growing mix of both nostalgia and anticipation, as the last full week of the nostalgic and reflective month of the Ox and of your current personal 12 month lunar cycle takes you closer by the day to next week's New Moon and the start of both the month of the Tiger and a new 12 month cycle.
Year of the Snake
Jan 29, 2025 - Feb 17, 2026
The Tiger and Snake have more in common than it might appear at first glance. The Tiger is passionate about social causes, injustice and doesn’t believe in watching from the sidelines, needing to get involved and help, whether it’s a friend with a problem or something they see isn’t how it should be. A Tiger will step in and get involved where others stand back and when asked why, their reply is ‘someone had to do something’. The Snake approves of this, but where the Snake and Tiger differ is the way they approach things.

The Snake likes to take his time and will be creating a year where the wheels turn slowly, where there is a need to take time to discuss and talk through issues and come to a consensus before taking action. The Tiger on the other hand likes to react quickly, seeing something that requires action and jumping straight in. Therefore, the Year of the Snake is a year where you will need to be wary of jumping into situations and then finding out too late that you're in over your head, with a need for caution. You might find that this creates some frustration, for as a Tiger you like things at a fast pace and that won’t be happening in a Snake Year.

Yet by taking your time, exercising restraint and taking the time to listen to sage advice from mentors, those who are more experienced or wiser, you can learn a lot this year. You will find the Year of the Horse, which begins next year a lot more exciting, with the Year of the Snake giving you a chance to pull back. This is a year where home and family matters are important and where a lot of professional progress can be made, especially if you seek out wise mentors and can focus more on learning your craft. A busy professional year brings a need to pace yourself, but one where with patience there can be financial gains.

About the Tiger
The Tiger is warm, loving and dynamic. One is never bored in the company of a Tiger. They are independent and unpredictable. Tigers can sometimes be selfish in pursuit of fun for they are susceptible to being captured by sudden enthusiasm, causing them to alienate their friends. But they generally have great sympathies and understanding for others.

Tigers are aggressive and need to control their tempers. They always tell it like it is, but they are also intelligent and sensitive, so will be full of remorse if they upset you. Tigers are protective of their families and peers and often show great courage.

Tigers are brave and powerful. At times, they take risks to the point of recklessness. They can make hasty decisions without thinking of the possible consequences. Nevertheless, Tigers are natural born leaders and are often successful in money and career matters. But they do have a propensity to see-saw in triumphs and failures because of their rash behaviour.

In love, Tigers are highly emotional. They have a strong sex drive touched with good dose of sensuality. More likely to "sow wild oats" in they younger days than other signs, they do become more placid with age.
