The Tiger
The Tiger is said to be lucky vivid, lively and engaging. Another attribute of the Tiger is his incredible bravery, evidenced in his willingness to engage in battle or his undying courage. Maybe he’s so brave because he is so lucky.
THE SIGN OF THE TIGER - Tigers do not find worth in power or money. They will be completely honest about how they feel and expect the same of you. On the other hand, they seek approval from peers and family. Generally, because of their charming personalities Tigers are well liked. Often, failing at a given task or being unproductive in his personal or professional life can cause a Tiger to experience a depression. Criticism from loved ones can also generate this type of Tiger reaction. Still, like all felines, Tigers always land on their feet, ready for their next act in life, pursuing it with unyielding energy and hunting it infallibly.
Tigers are also incorrigibly (uncontrollably) competitive - they simply cannot pass up a challenge, especially when honor is at stake, or they are protecting those they love. Tigers are unpredictable and it would be unwise to underestimate their reactions. They may appear cool, but they have the Big Cat's instincts to pounce at a moment's warning. Natural leaders, they have a strong sense of their own dignity, and if they find themselves in the ranks, they can be stubborn and obstinate. In positions of power they can be difficult though stimulating bosses. Tigers are intelligent, alert, and farsighted. They have their fingers on the pulse. Good strategists and tacticians, they often have a hidden agenda. As long as they do not risk their luck too often, and keep their restless nature under control, their tactics usually pay off in life.
THE WOOD TIGER (1974) is more adaptable to working with others and therefore does not demonstrate the typical "take charge" attitude of other Tigers. The Wood element adds stability, giving him warmth of character that draws people in and makes the Tiger a popular person. They are not selfish creatures and will give their time, attention or possessions to anyone in need. These Tigers bring a solid practicality to any problem. They can control their urges to completely take over, letting others do the work. They must be aware of their slightly volatile tempers and short attention spans, and not let those characteristics get the best of them or cause them or their loved ones undue pain.
HEALTH - Tigers tackle everything in their lives in brief bursts of energy, collapsing afterwards in a heap of exhaustion. Normally they are soon back to full strength, but their approach can cause their long-term health to suffer. They should take it a little easier and learn to pace themselves to keep active longer and to prevent early burnout. They are blessed with flexibility and recover quickly from illness or pain. They owe it to themselves to relax a little. Along with the fitness of their long-term health, Tigers must be aware of how they react to and are affected by the consequences of their tempers. A Tiger’s meanest enemy is the damage he can inflict upon himself in the midst of a temper tantrum.
AT HOME WITH THE TIGER - Tigers take pride in being different than others and generally illustrate their originality best in their homes. Tigers can utilize their atmosphere with color and light. A Tiger’s home will be filled with exotic treasures from trips past and will include items such as Tibetan prayer mats or African carvings, confirming their desire to travel to distant places.
THE TIGER ON THE JOB - A quickness and an alert intelligence make Tigers fast learners. Tigers need a challenge. Add this to them being easily bored and it explains why Tigers tend to change careers more often than other Chinese Animals. Some Tigers don’t change their occupations frequently enough and thus tend to juggle jobs all at the same time. Most Tigers are natural born leaders who perform best knowing they are working towards positions of power and influence.
MONEY AND THE TIGER - Tigers depend on luck. They like to spend money, and also to share it. They can be quite impulsive spenders because they know they can always make more. Somehow, as luck would have it, they discover the end of the rainbow just before complete bankruptcy. They are willing to lose a fortune in their lifetime, if it means they will wind up with two.
CONGENIAL BUSINESS PARTNERS - Whether Tigers are compatible with their business partners depends on whether their signs are harmonious or antagonistic to those of their business partners. Considering the congruity of their own characters and the characters of their business partners can also be very useful.
THE TIGER ON VACATION - Tigers like to live on the edge, to travel long distances conquering thrills and fears along the way. Never the homebody, Tigers prefer activity and excitement to relaxing days by the ocean reading a good book. They leave on a whim and return when they are ready to plan their next vacation. Action-filled getaways are sure to get a Tiger away for a long time!
FRIENDS AND ENEMIES - Tigers have the ability to lift the spirits of even the most depressed or lonesome individual they meet. Because of that attitude, Tigers have no problem making new friends. Actually, a Tiger person without a friend is quite miserable and sad. As friends, Tigers are exceptionally warm and incredibly generous with their time, attention and money. Friends are always welcome in a Tiger’s home and will most often be greeted with a cup of coffee, an ear, a tissue, an open mind and an open wallet. Few friends could be as caring and affectionate, as quirky and surprising, or as genuinely interested as the Tiger.
TIGER PARENTS AND BABIES - Tiger parents are quite similar to the characters of their wildlife counterparts. They will walk through fire to protect their children or to defend them to others. As warm and affectionate as they are, they can become fierce and defensive when their kids are at stake. They lavish their offspring with treats and spoil them with generosity. Tiger parents can be fun as kittens, playing family games and getting great enjoyment from it. On the whole, they enjoy their children's company, having a good laugh and sharing a funny joke. Still, adult Tigers will become enraged if one of their children has gone too far, or is disrespectful. As open-minded and liberal as they are, they will not, under any circumstances, tolerate bad manners, or a lack of respect for other adults.
They take their role as parents very seriously, and they believe in the value of a good education. When their kids are small, Tigers like to tell them tales and read them stories. They like to talk about their childhood experiences, and use their stories to instill moral lessons or any ethical feelings. Tigers are decidedly convinced to make themselves the very best role models for their children that they can be.
THE TIGER LOVER - Tigers are incredibly sexy people, beautiful to most people and sensually romantic. They are spontaneous lovers who never lose their creative spark or flare for an evening of passion. They offer their partner a hint of danger and exhibit a curiosity for the unknown.
MARRIAGE - Once a Tiger has committed himself to you, he can tend to want to dominate or lead you. This is a natural nurturing mechanism and must be kept under close watch to avoid complete control. For the negative effects a Tiger can have on his partner, there are a zillion positive things he will bring to the relationship. Trust, passion, politeness and spontaneity are only a few characteristics of the Tiger mate.
THE TIGER LOVE PARTNER - Tigers love excitement and need someone who can keep up with all they want to do and see. His partner must also be able to stand the mood swings, the ups and downs, the good with the bad. Chinese horoscopes are very specific about which partnerships have the potential to be successful in love and in business. Yet, though destiny can point us ion the right direction, we must still make all efforts to maintain loving relationships.
The Lion
Leo is a Fire Sign which also rules the fifth House, the House of Pleasure. It is ruled by the Sun, in ancient times the Center of the Universe. Leo is the sign of the Lion, the flamboyant King of Beasts who wants everybody to know that he is the King.
The Lion basks in the spotlight. She has a sharp tongue but put down only people who are arrogant. She uses humor as a weapon and wields her wit wildly. She prizes herself on her intellectual abilities and always has her head in a book. Not only can a Leo lead, she will lead. Lions don’t give up. She's dramatic, bold, creative, and strong; no other sign can grab and hold the spotlight the way a Lion can.
Lions are great fun to be around, too. Leos are amusing and have an enormous personality. She tries hard to fulfill her commitments but actually prefers to be out having a good time socializing or partying with friends. Her exuberance is contagious. Leos dip in and out of relationships but will only really settle with someone who allows them a certain amount of freedom.
The point of being a Leo is to be at one with the creative principle, and to learn how her willpower affects what she creates in her life. Self-expression and creativity are everything to a Leo. She will naturally gravitate toward careers that allow her to shine. Lions can often be found in the performing arts, shining with the brightness of the sun. In the public eye, a Lion is charismatic and magnetic, but a Lion shines even in less visible fields. Unless she works in a creative field she finds work tedious, but she perseveres with it.

The Blog
Ngayon ko lang nalaman meron pala talagang combination ng tiger at lion! Ibig sabihin hindi ako nag-iisa :-) Ang word na liger is actually included the English language since 1938. Accordingly, ang liger ay anak ng lalaking leon at babaeng tiger. Ang tigon naman lalaking tiger at babaeng leon. In English, lion + tigress = liger and tiger + lioness = tigon.
Sabi sa Wikipedia both ligers and tigons exist in captivity. Meron totoong liger na ang pangalan ay Hercules na nakatira at The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species (T.I.G.E.R.S.) in Myrtle Beach, a wildlife education organization run by director Dr. Mahamayavi Bhagavan Antle. Yun nga lang Hercules was the result of an accident rather than deliberate breeding. Sabi sa website (dated May 2005) He is three years old (so four years old na sya ngayon), stands 10 feet tall on his hind legs, and weighs about 1,000 lbs. At maturity he is expected to reach 12 feet in length and weight about 1,250 lbs.(Ano ang maturity age ng lion at tiger? I-a-average ba para sa liger at tigon?) He eats about 20 lbs. of meat (beef or chicken) per day, and he can consume up to 100 lbs of food in one sitting.
Kakatuwa! Ang galing. Sino ang mag-aakala na meron pala? Try to find and combine your chinese sign (based on the birth year) with your zodiac sign (based on birth month). Tingnan nga natin if meron rooster na isda, baboy na talangka, o rabbit na scorpio. Syempre hindi na kasama yung chinese signs na virgin hahahahaha.
