Happy Chinese New Year!

Year of the Water Tiger


In Chinese astrology, there is a complex cycle made up of 10 heavenly stems and 12 earthly branches.


Heavenly stems are associated with Yin Yang and the five elements of Taoism: wood; fire; earth; metal; and water. Each earthly branch is associated with one of the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. Every year, a heavenly stem is paired with an earthly branch. 2022 is the year of the Water Tiger!


“Yang-Water is connected to flowing water, rivers, or clouds. Tiger is in the Wood group. Tiger mainly contains Yang-Wood, which is a tall tree. It also contains Yang-Fire and Yang-Earth. Yang-Fire is related to the sun and Yin-Earth is related to the mountain. Tiger is a tall tree on the mountain under the sun. Tiger is a symbol of power, prestige, and loneliness .... The Water of 2022 helps the tree of the Tiger grow taller and stronger. That means 2022 brings strong Wood energy to people.”


The attributes of Wood energy are growth, change, and pushing through.
