HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!! Kung hei Fat Choi! Year of the Tiger

[YoshidaYui]

Tigers are the third of the Chinese zodiacs. According to legend, Tiger was confident that no one could compete with its speed and vigor for the celestial race that would decide the order of the zodiacs. However, when Tiger climbed out of the river, thinking it was first, it was informed that Rat placed first for its cunning and Ox placed second for its diligence. This left the king of the jungle having to settle for third place.

5. I was born under the Water Tiger sign.

It was spot on when it told me to beware the Monkey. Yesterday a friend gave me money in a red envelope like I used to do with my 1st graders when we celebrated the New Year.

The Water Tiger was born between Feb. 8, 1902 to Jan. 28, 1903 and between Feb. 5, 1962 to Jan. 24, 1963.
