Yes it is the year of the Tiger! I was born in 1950 - a Tiger Year - so here we are.....it can be a good thing....then again....NOT.
If you birthday this year is evenly divided by 12 you were also born in a year of the Tiger....12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96......
My brother Kent who was born in 1962 was also born in a year of the Tiger.
