The personality of the Tiger in Chinese astrology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Restless, anxious and unpredictable, Tigers can be as cruel as they are kind. It ain\u2019t easy being one of nature\u2019s most fearsome predators! Tigers’ presence is at times unsettling, but it\u2019s also exciting. Perhaps it\u2019s their hint of danger. Competitive Tigers love a good power game. They know what they want, and will plot and obsess until they get it. Like a tiger circling its prey, teasing the victim before making a deadly pounce, cunning Tigers have killer instincts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extremely driven, they take failure badly, and obsess over hard-to-reach goals. While they do achieve the impossible, it\u2019s often at a high price. Still, most Tigers won\u2019t back down from a challenge. They\u2019re too afraid of losing their place at the top of the food chain. Obsessing over this, however, can make Tigers come across as threatened, rather than confident. Learning to relax and be satisfied with what they have is an important Tiger lesson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Tiger is ruled by the planet Uranus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Didn\u2019t see that coming? The tricky Tiger is perfectly paired with its ruler Uranus<\/a>, the planet of radical change, rebellion and innovation. Tigers will pounce from left field, striking when you least expect it. Often hiding in plain sight, this Chinese zodiac sign specializes in the element of surprise. Uranus makes this clever animal archetype witty and wild. You just never know what a Tiger will say or do next! Their sense of humor can be offbeat, leaning toward sarcasm and satire, endlessly entertained by \u201cstupid human tricks.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much like Aquarius<\/a>, the Tiger\u2019s counterpart in Western astrology, the Tiger can be an extreme individual, insistent on marching to their own beat. Although Aquarius is the sign of groups and Tigers tend to be solitary (gathering in rare groups called a streak #funfact), the Western Water Bearer is still very much \u201ctheir own person.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiger, tiger, burning bright? Uranus is the planet of genius, and this incandescent big cat can\u2019t hide their stripes or striking energy. Even when they\u2019re quiet, Tigers exude a palpable presence\u2013you can feel their eyes following you, tracking your moves. Nothing escapes the Tiger\u2019s observation, so remember that before you share sensitive information that they may feast on later. In the wild, Tigers hunt at night, and many people born in the Year of the Tiger prefer to prowl into the wee hours or rise before the Sun does. The lion may \u201csleep tonight\u201d but the eye of the Tiger can see in the dark, making these people among the most innovative visionaries of their time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
