2010 is the Year of the Tiger, which begins on February 14, 2010 and ends on February 2, 2011.

It is a sign of courage. This fearless and firery fighter is revered by the ancient Chinese as the sign that wards off the three main disasters of a household: fire, thieves and ghosts.

Drama, intensity, change and travel will be the keywords for 2010. Unfortunately, world conflicts and disasters tend to feature during Tiger years also, so it won't be a dull 12 months for anyone. The Year of the Tiger will bring far reaching changes for everyone. New inventions and incredible technological advances have a good chance of occurring. For all of the Chinese horoscope signs, this year is one to be active - seizing opportunities and making the most of our personal and very individual talents. Everything happens quickly and dramatically in a Tiger year - blink and you could miss an important chance of a lifetime!
