Chinese horoscopes 2022: What will the year of the tiger bring for money, joy and success?

2022 is the Year of the Water Tiger – and in Fengshui this means it’s a year made for bold action. The Tiger is known for its power, daring, and ability to do everything on a grand scale. This is markedly different from 2021’s year of the Metal Ox, which was all about hard work and pragmatism.

Think about it: in 2021 the world had to plod through months of pandemic lockdowns and WFH isolation. It wasn’t glamorous or fun, but we plodded on because we knew it was necessary.

But Tiger years are times of change, even more so because next year is a Water Tiger. Water is connected to being sensitive, creative and open to change. But water is also an extremely powerful natural force. It can conquer fire and go around any obstacle in its path and not loose its way.

Tigers are also quick to take action, so be prepared in 2022 for situations to change quickly. On the down side, this can mean hot tempers and drama at home or at work. On the up side, a Tiger year can also bring unexpected good news and turn crazy dreams into glorious reality. Some horoscope signs can get burned, while others rise to glorious new heights. So get ready for a wild ride.

To find out what next year has in store for your horoscope specifically, read on and get ready.
