Chinese Zodiac: The Tiger
Honorable Tiger, noble and fearless, you are respected for your courage and simultaneously feared for your ferocity and persistent lack of moderation. Like a raging river, you constantly overflow your boundaries. Where are you rushing to with such haste? Can you not take just one tiny glance before you pounce? Try to slow down; practice a little restraint. Stop being so devastatingly attractive; it is exhausting.
Of course, some individuals find you so daring and spirited that they wish to join you and experience the adventure. But you, dear Tiger, are a daring solitary individual. The top is the only place you desire to be. You actively seek danger. The more formidable the adversary, the more dramatic and catastrophic the situation, the broader your Tigerish grin becomes. Your unpredictability, disregard for rules, self-sufficiency, and carefree swagger could ultimately be your downfall.
In matters of the heart, you are excessively demanding. However, you are certainly not dull. You get along best with devoted Dogs, independent Horses, and complicit Dragons also find loving you quite delightful. Monkeys admire you, but remember—Monkeys can be cunning. Whatever you do, do not become involved with a tempestuous Tiger like yourself; you are lucky, but not that fortunate.
