The Chinese zodiac tiger appears as the third zodiac sign in the Chinese zodiac system. The legend is that the Jade Emperor informed everyone that the animals will be chosen to be the zodiac signs according to the order of their arrival. Tiger was under the belief that it is first in the race but was revealed the fact that the rat got into the first place and the ox earned the second position. Much to its disappointment, it was placed only third in the order.
The people represented by this zodiac sign are believed to be quite strong and courageous. In Chinese legends also, triggers are the symbols of strength and chivalry. The same is the attributes assumed of the tiger people.
The Chinese zodiac tigers earn a great reputation throughout their lifetime. They are born strong, tolerant, and courageous. They are keen to take up risks and challenges and at times act stubbornly in picking up risks. They are highly ambitious individuals who have a great sense of self-confidence. They have a dominating personality which makes them natural leaders.
Being extremely outgoing and active, they yearn for the limelight. The chivalric and outgoing personality of the tigers often wins them a huge number of admirers and friends. They always manage to gain the trust of many. Their attitude rightfully fits a leader and they carry themselves most confidently and sharply just like a leader would.
They are more of impromptu people rather than planners. They don’t plan or prepare anything ahead so that they would have their future be made a little simpler. They are confident that they can tackle any challenges that come their way and thus, expect themselves to be unprepared for that.
The confidence that they possess at times turns out to be their biggest character flaw too. The reason is that the line between confidence and overconfidence is very thin and blurry and the tigers often overstep the line. The overconfidence that they emulate occasionally makes others perceive the tigers as annoying and heavy-headed.
The dominating character attribute of the tigers makes it difficult or merely impossible for them to coordinate with any others and this acts as a great minus in their professional life. Not being a team player or not being deeply benevolent for anyone else leaves the tigers with just casual friends, but no deeper ones.
The dominating and uncoordinated nature of the tigers is found to be affecting the family life also, as the spouses are often treated with disrespect and dominance. This mishandling of the family life by the tigers can be the reason for it to be fragile and even broken. And the strong self of the tigers won’t even bother to mend the broken relationships or marriages.
The five essential elements known to exert a significant influence on the outcome and the fortunes of each Chinese zodiac sign on the lunar calendar are fire, water, metal, wood, and earth. Every year in the lunar calendar is assigned a particular element, and the presence of these elements have an impact on the personality of the individuals born in that particular year.
In the case of tigers too, they possess plenty of character traits that are sure not to find or reflect in a single person. Thus, the presence of the element in the birth year of the tiger people is used to rightfully define the character traits of the individuals, and the lion’s share of the time, the character assumptions come out right and true.
