Gung hay fat choi! (Happy New Year!) The Year of the Tiger starts today, which is both Valentine’s day (celebrating love and affection) and a new moon.
“Tigers are physically powerful, gracious, independent and brave, they are extremely bold animals. They are friendly and loving but can also selfish and short tempered..…The Tiger flourishes by power and attention and takes advantage of all circumstances it gets itself into. The Tiger is a natural leader and loves to be the centre of attention. As a rebel it goes up against authority and speaks out about wrongs in society, and willingly puts up objections.…”
