The “Lunar New Year” on 1 February 2022, moving into spring season in the Northern Hemisphere, marks the beginning of the Year of the Tiger. The tiger is a symbol of strength, braveness, and the banishment of all evils. It is celebrated in Asia with children wearing hats or shoes with a tiger image for good luck. Previous Tiger Years were 2010, 1998, 1986, 1974, 1962, 1950, 1938, 1926, 1914, and, 1902. I’m celebrating by wearing a tiger’s eye gemstone bracelet and with my tiger night light – which reminds me of British poet William Blake’s 1794 poem, The Tyger, that begins:. Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
