Tiger in the Year of the Tiger 2010 Chinese Horoscope & Feng Shui

***Note: I am no expert in this feng shui horoscope thing and the followings are sourced from multiple sources and compiled together for your easy viewing. Am I nice or am I nice?. Ahem***

2010 is the Year of the Golden Tiger or some might call it Metal Tiger. Apparently Gold = Metal. Hmmm, if that is the case, I think I have lots of scrap metal lying around some where. Heck, I might as well go exchange them for gold. Ahem.

Anyway, back to todays focus. Some say this year is a bad year being that this year is also the Year of the White Tiger in color terms. So now you have Gold = Metal = White. Now you know. See, BenardCometh Revelations so informative lah. =p

However, there are some who says that this year is going to be a good year. Good or bad, you decide it for yourself or check it out for yourself at the end of this year. 

So, are you a "Tiger"? Chinese Zodiac context I mean. The followings are some information on being a Tiger in the Year of the Tiger 2010. Some horoscope and feng shui matters.

You are a Tiger if you are born in:

1902, 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998.

Tiger is a vigorous and ferocious animal and one Tiger is a symbol of power and authority while two Tigers means fighting for power where the loser will become powerless. Thus it is considered a taboo for Tigers to meet. Those of Tiger Zodiac that is. 

That indicates that the Year of the Tiger is not a good year for those of Tiger Zodiac. Friendship, love relationship, financial, career or power competition might be damaged in this year. It is vital to try to seek for less or no mistake, and there would be no major prosperity in the Year of the Tiger.

Career

2010 is the Year of the Metal Tiger and according to the horoscope or feng shui thing, apparently Tigers don't like metal. (Of course lah, common sense Tiger likes meat. Lots of em.) The career activities are the major events in this year. 

That means the career pressure will come soon or later. If you have good people relationship, then your friends or coworkers will help you to overcome the challenge from your job. Then you might have a chance for promotion. If you are a female and you have trouble from men or job, then your friends can help you to take care of the problem. 

If you don't have supporters in your working environment, then your position or power will be damaged by friends, relatives or an enemy at work. If you are female and have a boy friend, then your love relationship won't get any improvement or your boy friend has trouble in his career. 

Therefore, Tiger people need good reputation to make their career easy. Building friendships or business relationships is important in 2010 for Tiger people.

Money

Money luck is unfavorable to Tiger people in 2010. Money is always connected with job and friends. As long as you can keep your job, then you should have a stable income. You have to say no to a loan to a friend, an endorsement to a friend, a loan-cosigning for friend, or any risky investment suggested from friend to prevent money loss. In general, Tiger people should budget their expense and adjust their financial plan in 2010.

Love

There is no love sign for man in the Tiger year. When a Tiger meets another Tiger, then the love competition will increase. Because of no significant love or romantic sign in 2010, then the chance to meet a woman you like will be much lesser. Even you have a girl friend now, you won't move into a closer love relationship. 

If you are a female, then you have a chance to meet the opposite sex. But it's same that there is a love competition in 2010. Or your boy friend feels trouble from your other friends or relatives. In short, if you have a love relationship, then you need to maintain the relationship. If you are single, then you need the patience to wait for the right one.

Health

Tiger people don't have a good sign in their career luck and money luck. That implies they have to spend extra time, energy and brain power to take care of daily activities. Their health will be impacted more or less. You just have to learn how to find time to take a break to relax yourself. 

If you were a sick Tiger in 2009, then it will take time to recover back to your healthy body in 2010. Enough time to sleep, proper time to exercise, and good amount of food for eating are very important for Tiger people in 2010.

Fortune

The major event in 2010 for man is the career. The major issue for woman is career or boyfriend or spouse. This not only brings the trouble and pressure to Tiger people, but it could expand to a poor relationship with friends, siblings or coworkers. 

The worst case will become financial crisis. As Tiger don't like metal, this is considered an inauspicious year. However, all is not lost. Since the Tiger is considered as a symbol of power and authority, this is good for leadership.

P/S: My personal opinion is that; please do not be too fanatic or be too immersed about the horoscope. If it says that it will be a bad year for you, no reason to be all panicky and go find whatever solution you can find. Work hard with good attitude or if you are doing your own business, no reason to sulk but instead try to find ways to improve and make your business a success. Likewise if it is predicted to be a good year, there is no reason to slow down and wait for the fortune to come. It all depends on oneself and be positive at all times. It might work wonders. So there.
