The Horse's luck in the year of the Tiger is actually not bad with some good stars in place. However, there also some unlucky stars in the way. There will be unpredictable, unforeseen events that may lead the Horse off track. This is a year where the Horse can win, but it is unstable. If at the beginning of the year, the Horse is not greedy or impulsive, with enough energy, resource and planning, and a helping hand, after May, the Horse may see some good times or a good situation. There may be more opportunities and more people helping the Horse, leading to good developments. Luck is not bad this year, being better than the previous years. The year of Tiger is a year where work input is congruent with the fruits of one's efforts. The Summer or Fall is a suitable time for the Horse to start a business, or even if the Horse wants to stay where he/she is for employment, there will be a harmonious relationship with the business partner or employer and colleagues. Excellent interpersonal relationships will help a great deal in career and financial luck this year for the Horse. If the Horse would like to be more successful this year, he/she needs to know how to take advantage of time and place, as well as the appropriate people in the network. When the right opportunity comes, the Horse should not be slow or hesitate and needs to be confident and decisive, or else delaying will lead to a missed opportunity. However, if the Horse is impractical and insists on pushing forward even though the right opportunities are not there and the foundations of good interpersonal relationships are not well built, then this becomes a recipe for a big failure. Therefore, in terms of dealing with matters, be it good or bad, it must be dealt with quickly and with decisiveness. Whether you win or lose, it must be decided immediately without hesitation or procrastination. If you lose, you need to determine quickly how much you expect to lose and deal with it promptly and if you expect to win, do it right away. With flexibility of thinking, adaptability and hard work, by May, there can be good returns especially in the areas of telecommunications, science/technology, computers, stocks, foreign currency, oil, mining, journalism/media, culture and electronics. If the Horse has the courage to promote him/herself, it can be useful for promotion, raise, change employment or even starting a business. This is a year of putting out heart and effort, having more confidence and working harder in order to succeed, which is much better off than staying with the status quo. Therefore, it is relatively better this year to make a change and try something new.

The Horse will easily attract legal problems this year. Higher risk occupations include things like law enforcement, firemen, shipping/transportation, and traffic related jobs where human errors and bad temperament may lead to physical injury or legal problems; therefore, the Horse needs to be meticulous and careful with all matters to avoid this risk. Financial luck is actually not bad this year. However, if the Horse likes to invest, be it stocks, property etc., he/she must know to pull out early, that once there are some good returns. Do not chase the imaginable returns or else greed may lead to further losses, as only the money that is in your pockets is truly yours. The higher you stand, the harder you fall, so again, know when to stop. Do not easily trust those so called investment experts, as they only misguide you, especially those who are overconfident and claim a record of no losses. Avoid being arrogant and belittling others, as it will only lead to hate and jealous in friends and colleagues.

Relationships tend to be more passionate and intense this year, so be careful of this area of life interfering with pursuit of career endeavors by being too emotional and too sentimental. The single Horse should be able to find a suitable partner this year, but avoid two timing, as he/she may end up with no one. The Horse who is in a relationship may find this a good year to get married. The married Horse will easily have disagreements and misunderstandings with his/her partner, so temper management and good communication is very important, as well as avoiding seeking love outside the marriage, which can lead to family destruction, losses in career and reputation, and even physical injury and legal problems. The female Horse needs especially control her temper and avoid accusations on her partner, as even though it may be untrue, the female Horse may push her partner enough to create a self-fulfilling prophecy. For example, the female Horse may accuse her husband, who is innocent, of cheating and her unrelenting nature creates such a negative environment such that the husband is pushed to the arms of another woman.

In terms of health, there may be respiratory and gastrointestinal problems, particularly of the ears, nose and throat. It is not suitable for the Horse to stay long in crowded places. Avoid metal and fire elements, as there is risk of knife injury and fire hazard; therefore, unnecessary activities and high risk places should be avoided. Also avoid excessive stress. If the Horse can do some good deeds this year, for example donating blood, it will help with luck in the area of health neutralizing the physical injury risks, as well as being able to help others in need.

The young Horse tends to be lazy this year, so working harder can help neutralize deficiencies. The young Horse may have too many relationships, which can negatively affect education. Luck in writing examinations tend to be poor this year, so in addition to studying harder, on the western wall of the home, place a metal clock to increase wisdom and luck in writing exams.
