Personality
Tiger people are authoritative and prestigious. Brave, independent, and energetic, these people love to step into the unknown. Their confidence wills them to search out new experiences. Travel to new places and meeting new people does not scare the Tiger one bit, for their dynamic view on life always invites new experiences. Determined and secure in their abilities, Tigers make decisions based on instinct, but thoroughly plan before taking action on them.
People of this sign are sometimes viewed as overly enthusiastic. Friends and family may have a hard time sharing this enthusiasm with them and temporarily push them away. When a Tiger doesn't get what they want, they may become hot-headed, rebellious, and self-centered. Tigers' instinctual decision making can also lead to reckless behavior.
Compatibility
Tigers are compatible with Dogs and Horses. They are incompatible with Sheep and Oxen.
