2022 is the Year of Tiger has arrived. The Tiger symbolism stands for strength, fearlessness, and military prowess. In many cultures and religions like Hinduism and Buddhism, tigers are vehicles of various deities.

The Tiger is also associated with Yang energy, so expect enthusiasm as we navigate our way through big life changes and adventures.

The Chinese Zodiac also cycles through the 5 elemental types making 2022 the year of the Water Tiger 💧🐅. Water brings out our emotions, so it's best to open ourselves up and remain fluid as we experience various highs and lows throughout the year.

​The numbers 1, 3​ &​ 7​ are considered lucky numbers of the year​​. Also, the color blue 🔵 and green​ 🟢 are said to bring some additional luck this year.

Tigers stand for strength, power, courage, and ambition. The animal represents a symbolic release of fears and standing for truth, justice, and integrity.

The Character of Golden Tigers: Tender and Considerate

As a Chinese-American who lives in San Francisco, this Golden Tiger piece is particularly significant to me. Chinese people historically referred to California as Gold Mountain, as evidenced by maps and returned-overseas Chinese. However, as a gold rush subsequently occurred in Bendigo, Australia, the then-colony of Victoria was referred to as "New Gold Mountain" (新金山), and California became known as Old Gold Mountain. In fact, San Francisco’s Chinese name literally translates to "Old Gold Mountain" (Simplified Chinese: 旧金山; traditional Chinese: 舊金山).

I wish you a ROAR-some Year of Tiger.
