What Wood adds to the Tiger
Wood repeats the Tiger's own element, concentrating the traditional themes of growth, initiative and a readiness to press forward. The Wood Tiger reading places courage in a collective setting, where defending a shared purpose and encouraging others can sit beside impatience with anything that seems to hold everyone back.
The year’s visible stem is Jiǎ 甲, Yang Wood; the Tiger branch 寅 retains its fixed Wood element.
