Tiger years are always regarded as “fierce” years. What makes this year extra special is the fact that the Paht Chee (or birth chart) of the year features not one but three tigers—an unusual occurrence that reiterates the great need to be careful. The good news is that the Tiger also brings wealth and in 2022, there is indeed money to be made—although not all will benefit equally from this wealth potential (in fact, it’s a rather lopsided distribution). With all Yang pillars indicating a fast-moving year where decisions are made in haste, resulting in some poor ones, it’s best to pace yourself and proceed with caution. The theme of “power” also features prominently, so it’s best if you put yourself in a position of control or back those who can help you. Going against authority is a bad move this year. What else does the Tiger Year hold and how do you deal with all this information as an individual? Let’s find out.

The Rat faces a better year ahead with the Victory Star landing in its sector. This will give you a competitive advantage with everything you undertake and you’ll benefit from a whole arsenal of secret weapons up your sleeve whenever taking anybody on. You are difficult to beat and when faced with a fight, you will not have to back down. Face your challenges head on and don’t let yourself get talked out of taking your stand. It’s also a promising year of new opportunities for the Rat. You can afford to take risks and move in new directions.
WORK Success luck is neutral, but tenacity pays off. 
WEALTH Thirty-eight and 74-year-old Rats enjoy great wealth luck! The 26-year-old should be more careful.
HEALTH Don’t neglect your health, but in this aspect, your luck improves this year. 
RELATIONSHIPS Everybody loves a Rat, but you may have to try harder if looking to land a mate. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Surround yourself with white, silver, gold and diamonds.

You face an excellent year with your wealth luck being good. You’ll also enjoy strong success luck, which suggests that personal goals are easily fulfilled. A big opportunity may come your way and when it does, don’t let it pass you by. Such opportunities may not be obvious at first, so don’t dismiss new ideas brought to you. The main downside to your luck is your tendency to give up easily. Counter this by developing a strong resolve and surrounding yourself with people who encourage rather than discourage you. If you have a toxic friend or family member, learn to let things go in one ear and out the other, or limit your interaction with such people. 
WORK Excellent success luck suggests promotion opportunities. Be confident in your abilities. 
WEALTH Very positive! Boost wealth potential with symbolic wealth enhancers. 
HEALTH Don’t dismiss health problems as they need attention. 
RELATIONSHIPS You get along swimmingly with everyone; it’s a year to deepen friendships. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Red and rubies are especially great for you.

This is your year! The Tiger gains the support of the Year God and this puts you at an advantage. You can count yourself amongst the most charismatic of the signs with the rest of the world agreeing. Thus, Tigers in public positions will fare well as they enjoy  great popularity luck, and also fame if they want it. The Prosperity Star in your sector indicates a good year to amass wealth,  so don’t count pennies—the higher you aim, the more you gain. A very lucky year! 
WORK  Stay true to your principles and others will respect you more. 
WEALTH There are huge money opportunities, especially for 48- and 60-year-old Tigers. 
HEALTH Your emotional health is weak. Steel yourself, and beware heartache and heartbreak. 
RELATIONSHIPS Tone down your aggressiveness and let your partner take the lead occasionally. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Sapphires, black and blues in all tones are the way to go.

The Rabbit has to stomach the Quarrelsome Star.  This can make you more argumentative with others, or them with you. While  always the diplomat, this year could see your patience wearing thin, with that  legendary tolerance of yours getting tested over and over throughout the year. Best to  walk away from conflict than engage in fights you cannot win. The good news is that success luck smiles upon you, and you’ll enjoy  both small and big achievements. It’s a promising year when new interests and new opportunities find their way into your life. 
WORK You’ll leap ahead of the competition and possibly invoke jealousy. 
WEALTH Decent luck, especially for the 47- and 23-year-old Rabbit. 
HEALTH You’ll need to control your negative emotions. 
RELATIONSHIPS Stop being quarrelsome and making your partner’s life so difficult. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Aquamarine and light blues work best for you.

The Dragon has a mixed year ahead. Indications point to some superlative bonuses, both large and small; but your element luck is weak. This suggests that, while there is potential, you tend to give up too easily. In 2022, you must remember that success and achievement are possible as long as you do not quit at the slightest obstacle. Avoid people who shoot down your ideas or try to talk you out of them. Dream big even if it sounds ludicrous. If it is something you’re truly passionate about, the Dragon personality has the ability to will a wish into reality. 
WORK Anything is possible this year, but you must stay the course. 
WEALTH There’s big potential for big wealth! 
HEALTH In need of protection and remedy, display the Wu Lou and don’t take health risks.
RELATIONSHIPS Excellent; your charisma alone will get you far. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Reds, oranges, yellows and earth tones like those found in sapphires are your lucky charms.

The Snake holds great potential to embark on new adventures. The Creative Star boosts your inspiration, allowing you to pursue just about anything you want, even if it’s far removed from what you’re currently doing. This is further backed by the Heaven Seal, which indicates things falling into place as you advance. Don’t let fear of the unknown stop you; you’ll find the answers you need as you move forward. Relationship luck is also strong, making this a good year to network, deepen existing relationships and expand your friendship circles. 
WORK You are bursting with ideas and your supervisors recognise your value to the team. 
WEALTH There’s excellent potential, but it’ll be good to budget. 
HEALTH Strong, but not to be taken for granted. 
RELATIONSHIPS Your Peach Blossom luck is strong; it’s a good year to go steady or get hitched. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Rubies and other red-coloured stones are auspicious for you.

Another excellent year awaits the Horse! Last year was about winning; this year is about making something of your spoils. The Star of Future Prosperity suggests a time for building for the coming years. Focus on forming strong foundations and taking a longer-term view when making plans, whether for yourself, your family or children. You are blessed with enhanced foresight, so don’t ignore your instincts. The only word of caution is to not let yourself burn out. Design a good work-life balance and rest when tired. Don’t test your will so much that you lose the enthusiasm for what you are currently enjoying. 
WORK You are making good progress, but avoid burnout by managing your time well. 
WEALTH You’ll enjoy investment luck as long as you invest wisely. 
HEALTH Beware of accidents. Avoid high-risk activities and carry protective amulets. 
RELATIONSHIPS You’ll need to work harder at your relationships, but you’ll enjoy good marriage luck. LUCKY 
GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Deck yourself in greens and reds such as emeralds and rubies for the best of luck.

Strong success luck coupled with very auspicious stars suggest that the Sheep can attain some lofty goals in 2022, as achievements come easily. You’ll have people who will come to your aid when you need it; all you have to do is ask. The Sheep sign is a wonderful motivator for others, but in 2022, you’ll need to look after yourself as well. You are deeply empathetic, which makes you emotional, although your inbuilt strength means you rarely share your troubles. But sometimes, talking about things with the right people can unload your mind, allowing you to better function in everyday  life. 
WORK There are good opportunities for promotion as long as you put in the work. 
WEALTH You’ll have excellent luck, but there’s no easy money. The money made will be commensurate to the effort put in. 
HEALTH The Illness Star in your sector signals a need to be more careful. 
RELATIONSHIPS Above average; the Sheep sign is rarely short of friends anyhow. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Red agate and deep reds will work like a charm.

It’s a seminal year that will see  Monkeys facing some big life changes for the better. You’ll enjoy attainment luck, with the double “Big Auspicious” predicting some meaningful accolades coming your way. The Monkey is a master strategist, 
the cleverest of the animal signs, and its talent for getting out of tight spots is really quite legendary. But beware of becoming sloppy in your preparation. Your nature is to react and you do it so very well. But with such big indications in your chart, greater pre-planning efforts will elevate your success to whole new levels. It’s a year to stay focused on  the big goals. 
WORK Beware those who are envious of your success. There’ll be some politics to navigate at the workplace. 
WEALTH Unnecessary expenditure will affect cash flow. 
HEALTH You are weak on this front, so get ailments checked out. 
RELATIONSHIPS Don’t get too emotional and develop thicker skin as you navigate this front. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Arm yourself with yellow sapphire, citrines and white.

The Rooster’s inner strength gets a big boost, renewing the enthusiasm for past passions and giving it a second wind to climb new mountains.  While the Loss and Betrayal Star has landed in your sector, all other indications are so auspicious that this hardly matters. Work and career matters go swimmingly as you  forge new methods of being productive in spite of a fast-changing environment. Also, the new hybrid work trend will unlock new realities for you and it could be the catalyst to a more fulfilling existence. The Rooster is happiest when  productive, so keep up the effort when it comes to the things that matter. 
WORK Excellent prospects for promotion and new opportunities. 
WEALTH Entrepreneurial efforts will meet with good results. 
HEALTH Moderate luck, but the 65-year-old Rooster needs to be careful. 
RELATIONSHIPS Fair; neither good nor bad. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Diamond, white and metallic colours should do the trick.

The Dog faces a much-improved year, one where it is doubly blessed by the Star of Heaven. The main theme for you this year is the help and support from people who matter. Whether these are people in positions of power, or those with the right kind of wisdom or influence to help you, it is a year when many doors that may have been shut before open. You have some windfall luck, so make the most of the new opportunities and take a risk or two. Your only negative indication is your low levels of element luck, which affect your self-confidence. Don’t let others discourage you; you’ll need to work on believing in yourself. The confident Dog has many good things headed its way! 
WORK You can improve things by improving your attitude. 
WEALTH Strong, but you’ll need wealth enhancers. Get yourself the Sacred Resource Cow. 
HEALTH Below average luck here; stay cautious with Covid. 
RELATIONSHIPS Excellent; expect romance too! 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Yellow sapphire, citrine andearth tones are best.

The Boar faces an apathetic year, where things are neither very good nor very bad. You’ll enjoy blessings from heaven, which will bring new opportunities, but you may be rather too lazy to do anything about it! Some Boars will have become overly comfortable with the lockdown lifestyle and going back out there to work won’t sound  appealing at all. The Boar loves the good life. And having had a taste of a slower pace, you may be unwilling to give up what you’ve become accustomed to. But you’re emotionally stronger and friendships will improve as the year progresses. You’ll enjoy wealth potential, but may have some jealousies to contend with. 
WORK It’s a time to build better rapport with colleagues. 
WEALTH Strong, but you’ll need enhancers. Get yourself the Activating Prosperity Tree. 
HEALTH Continue being cautious with Covid and follow protocols. 
RELATIONSHIPS Excellent! There’s love in the air. 
LUCKY GEMSTONES AND COLOURS Diamonds, whites and metallic colours are just what you’re after.
