To the Chinese, the Tiger is thought of as a magical creature. Tigers are independent but also loving and kind. The Tiger represents freedom and fun, but makes decisions too fast which most often end up being very unwise. When things like this happen it leads the Tiger into deep depression that they have a hard time getting out of. Tigers give their all in everything they do. They love the social life and go out as often as possible, but they also love family life and children. Tigers usually are just thought of as a big kid, they lead a roller- coaster life.

Dragons want to be the center of attention. They are very arrogant but also charismatic and colorful. The Chinese see the Dragon as the luckiest of all creatures. They always need to be doing something and hate sitting around. Since Dragons are so empowered with self- confidence, they are usually successful in anything they do. The restlessness of the Dragon makes them not follow their plans out to the end, which leaves their life up and down. Dragons consider themselves to always be right and cannot accept anyone else's opinion. This makes them natural born leaders. Dragons are always surrounded by a large group of admirers, but have few close friends. However, the friends Dragons do make they keep for life. If there is trouble in a situation, the Dragon will be the first there to help deal with it. Besides being difficult and obnoxious, they are extremely fair. In the world of a Dragon the word "can't" does not exist.
