50% silver alloy with 24k gold plated Details: · Astrology is certainly one of the most ancient philosophies still in existence in China. Some estimate it to be more than 3,000 years old but recent study of more esoteric beliefs place it further back into the clouded past of human history. In ancient China, and up until today Astrology has been used to predict what happens to countries, the outcome of wars, economic trends and much more. Chinese Astrology is organized according to 12 Animals Signs. One Chinese legend attributes the creation of the animal signs to the semi-mythical Yellow Emperor in 2637 B.C. According to another legend, the Lord Buddha summoned all the animals to come to him before he departed from Earth. Only 12 animals came to bid him farewell. As a reward he named a year after each other one in the order that they arrived. First came the Rat, then the Ox, the Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. Thus we have 12 signs today. The animal ruling year in which you were born exercises a profound influence on your life. As the Chinese say, "This is the animal that hides in your heart".

Years born : 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998,2010 The tiger is one of the 12-year cycle of animals which appear in the Chinese zodiac related to the Chinese calendar. According to Chinese folklore, each animal is associated with certain personality traits. Tiger people are sensitive, given to deep thinking, capable of great sympathy. They can be extremely short-tempered, however. Other people have great respect for them, but sometimes tiger people come into conflict with older people or those in authority. Sometimes Tiger people cannot make up their minds, which can result in a poor, hasty decision or a sound decision arrived at too late. They are suspicious of others, but they are courageous and powerful. Tigers often make gifted and inspiring leaders. Tiger people are very independent, yet many marry at a young age. The female Tiger can be a big pussycat unless she is confronted or bored. You cannot abide a sterile situation, and will move to greener pastures if the least little obstacle presents itself. You prefer to travel rather than settle down, as you like to keep your own counsel and remain independent. Your life is one of adventure, due primarily to a tragically short attention span. When you love it is with great intensity and ferocity, but against boredom even the gods (and goddesses) contend in vain, so that nothing is ever forever with you. You have a mighty spirit, and are intelligent and beautiful, with a sharp and incisive wit and great rhetorical talent, but you take offense too easily and thereby create many enemies for yourself. The Tiger male is essentially peaceful until aroused by continued mistreatment. You are very strong-willed, with a concomitant absolute belief in your own eventual success -- you ooze self-assurance from every pore. This may come in handy, as your sense of personal ambition is strong indeed and you will not rest until you've achieved fame and fortune, power and recognition from others. You are quick to take the lead, due primarily to your willingness to risk all on a throw of the dice. Unless you yourself are in a position of authority, you are an outspoken critic of those in positions of authority. You are a champion of the oppressed, a supporter of the weak, and, somewhat paradoxically some might say, an accomplished and passionate lover. ¡¡ · 1.56" in diameter, 2.5mm in thick. · Encapsulated in clear plastic case for perfect protection.¡¡ |
