Chinese zodiac signs can be traced all the way back to Qin Dynasty some 2000 years ago. According to this ancient system of animal worship, each year has its own animal appearing in 12-year cycles. 2022 is The Year of the Tiger. Previous tiger years included 1986, 1998, and 2010. If you were born during a tiger year, then 2022 is expected to be a time of excitement and major change for you. While Tigers are known for their ferocious natures, in China they are also seen as patron deities for children. As such, it is common to see babies wearing clothing featuring tiger designs.
