Things have not been great for Tigers in the Year of the Snake as they conflicted with the tai sui, or the Grand Duke of Jupiter. The Year of the Horse will be much better; a friendly relationship with the tai sui indicates an increase in fortune, great networking opportunities, the potential for support from benefactors and achievements through collaboration.

However, the Year of the Horse lacks auspicious stars for Tigers, and various inauspicious stars lurk, making for average career and health fortunes. Fortunately, this is a year of wealth, with good income coming from regular work, so things will balance out overall.

Obsidian is the lucky element for Tigers in the Year of the Horse, according to fortune-teller Tong Pik-ha.
