2010 Year of the Metal Tiger

YEAR OF THE METAL TIGER

2010 Year of the Metal Tiger, beginning on February 14, 2010 and ending on February 2, 2011.

Sudden conflicts and crises arise in this year and will have an impact for some time.
The year for grand schemes for the courageous, but underhand activities may suffer repercussions.

Possessing a great sense of moral responsibility more than the others this calm TIGER will often set a good example and be faired just; it can be a bit pompous, though and is very self –assured. The Metal Tiger is a sign of courage. The fearless and firery fighter is revered by the ancient Chinese as the sign that wards off the three main disasters of a household: fire, thieves and ghosts.

Rash, impulsive and dynamic, TIGERS don’t know how to sit still, and take fearsome risks. But if you need a hero, then a TIGER will do fine. TIGERS like to take on the cause of the underdog and will fight against any injustice imaginable. They are invariably charming and persuasive. They are born leaders, not because of any natural leading abilities, but because they can talk anyone into following them – no matter how ill-advised the project may be.

The TIGER is one of the most tenacious characters in the Chinese zodiac and very little will daunt TIGERS, or keep them down for long. They will always bounce back. TIGERS are not invulnerable, however, and need lots of emotional support as they are basically insecure and can feel unloved.

TIGER: 1902, 1914, 1926, 1938 (31 Jan - 18 Feb), 1950 (17 Feb - 5 Feb), 1962 (5 Feb - 24 Jan), 1974 (23 Jan - 10 Feb), 1986 (9 Feb - 28 Jan), 1998 (28 Jan - 15 Feb), 2010.
The fearless Tiger is liberal minded and optimistic. Tolerant, emotional and deep thinkers, they enjoy taking risks. Tigers can be reckless by nature and must speak their mind. Tigers will never say die. When challenged they can be unpredictable and rebellious.
