The good thing about being born Asian is that you get to celebrate two New Years. This Chinese and Vietnamese New Year will be on February 14, 2010, Valentine's Day. It will be the Year of the Metal Tiger.

I always like to read the horoscope each new year because it is fun. Check out what is your sign and whether it depicts all the qualities that you have.

It will be the Year of the Metal Tiger.

I just had a flashback to Celebrity Paranormal Project where Gary Busey commented on hearing the sound of a metallic tiger in Waverly Hill insane asylum. He said it was like a religious experience.

I'm a metal Tiger myself. The Chinese considered there were five types of Nature spirits, or five types of Nature elements: earth, air, water, fire, and metal. Metal was considered the most spiritual and the least earthbound of the five. I imagine that, given how we now know that DNA has intelligence and is partly non-physical, DNA might have been considered an example of something "metallic".

According to Chinese astrology, the Tiger is the animal that's the expert at brinkmanship, at testing boundaries. From the news reports I've seen on this site in the last few days, it looks like those bluffing and "stirring" games are already on -- and the Tiger year doesn't even start till mid-February.

The twelve Chinese animals also roughly correspond in their qualities to the twelve animals of the Western zodiac. The Tiger corresponds in many ways to Aquarius -- which is one of the two signs associated most with ETs and higher densities, and also with idealism. In Chinese astrology, the Tiger is traditionally considered the most idealistic of the 12 animals, and also the most independent-minded.

I prefer to learn from Suzanne White. Chinese zodiac was all the rage when I was a french student in Paris.

Me? I'm a fire dragon!

Namaste. The Tiger is one of the most beautiful creatures on the planet, and is feared and revered in equal measure.

The Dragon is supposed to be the best sign. People even plan to have babies in that year. Interesting that 2012 is a Dragon year :original:

[SteveX]

It's now Feb 14th Valentines Day here in the UK. My wife is a wood tiger and I'm a water tiger, also an Aquarius...Hope this is good for both of us.

Happy Valentines Day & a happy new Year

[Swanny]

Happy new year :original:
There was a new moon last night as well

[SteveX]

Looks even more promising for me, as there was a full moon on Gregorian New Year.

2 new moons + 2 tigers +I'm an Aquarius & were entering the Age of Aquarius.... what ever that means. :original:

I used this site:
http://www.chinesefortunecalendar.com/chineseastrology.htm

According to this I'm a "White Dragon" born in the year of "Red Rabbit" and have "Metal" as my element.

Though my lucky element is "Water".

[Swanny]

Says this about me

The following is your birth chart. You are Red Monkey, born in the year of Green Dragon. The first character in DAY represents you. So you are equivalent to Fire.

:blink:


But I am a wood dragon

[Kamikaze]

Says this about me


:blink:


But I am a wood dragon

I would say wood = green

As red = fire and such. Red Rabbit can also be Fire Rabbit. Just depends if you want to use the "color" or "element"

Your day (representing you) if I follow this right is red Monkey. IE Fire Monkey.

This site seems to use all the 4 pilars in comparison to the only 1 pilar you see on many other places. Taking the year of your birth rather than Year, month, day & hour.

Well I'm far from understanding this. I just checked a little the last hour.
I still can't find anything what your Day sign will mean... Everything I find pertains to the year...

If I understand this correct the year horoscope is kinda vague and general for that whole year. But then there is each day to day horoscopes that can detail you specifically much more accurate.
Don't listen to me though! I know nothing really.

[Gnosis5]

May your tiger love you!!

Turns out I'm an Earth Monkey... sounds like a derogatory term used by ET's to describe a Human Being LOL :naughty:

Thanks for the above great info, Trainee. I'm also a metal Tiger and my zodiac sun has progressed into Aquarius. It helps to explain my fascinations... this site, StarTrek and all. Never felt much like a Tiger, really. The DNA angle is interesting... would love to hear more.

[TraineeHuman]

As somebody pointed out earlier in the thread, I got the five Chinese elements wrong. They have wood instead of air.

Also, the description of what metal signifies that I gave is only one version (based on two different books on Chinese astrology), and conflicts with some other versions I've read, including one somebody else has quoted in this thread. So I get the strong impression that the original teachings were lost, and obviously at least some of the authors on Chinese astrology must be coming from guesswork rather than knowledge.

Hey Swanny ...

Talking of the Tiger I just found this on Fulfords update...

This week marks the beginning of the Chinese New Year. This will be a very special Year of the Tiger. The year of the tiger comes in-betw
een the Year of the Bull and the Year of the dragon. This is very symbolic, I believe. The Bull is a fitting symbol for the West these days, virile and aggressive but lacking in wisdom and patience. The dragon is very old and wise but is perhaps too cautious and passive and can be seen as a symbol of the East. If you mix the best elements of the bull and the dragon, the result is a tiger. This week I will fly to Rome as a representative of the Black Dragon Society to negotiate with the leaders of the Illuminati and the Teutonic Knights. Hopefully we will be able to come up with a formula for a new financial system controlled exactly 50/50 by East and West. Eventually, a financial system controlled by all of humanity is likely after a transition period needed to make sure issues like corruption, governance etc. are all dealt with.

Ha, Swanny!! Some other words too. I recall being at an exceptionally grand and sumptuous Sunday dinner in Lyons. I happened to say, "Je suis excite!" Embarrassed silence, and I did not find out until the next day my faux pas :naughty:
