Year of the Tiger

by rose77 | created - 25 Jan 2014 | updated - 20 Aug 2022 | Public

One of the most intriguing aspects of the Tiger is the co-existence of a sociable and highly individualistic personality. They tend to have lively circle of friends and acquaintances and attract others by their charming sociability and their tendency to be polite and agreeable in company. For many of this sign, it is important to nurture a wide social circle outside their family and work relationships, since this is important for the free and productive exchange of ideas which they thrive on. Part of the social attractiveness of the Tiger lies in their appreciation of fine arts and cultural pursuits. For them a perfect way to spend an evening would be a night out at the opera or theater; at the same time they are highly creative people themselves. Most have an inborn ear for music and can sing or play instruments while many are gifted with a knack for fine arts and sculpture. The Tiger’s good taste in cultural pursuits extends to appearances as well. They are most likely to be good looking or at least well groomed and fashionable. While they would rarely follow the dictates of the fashion runway, you can count on the fact that their individual style would be highly becoming and appropriate to their personality.
