A plain-language theme note for the Tiger in the Fire Goat year — grounded in the classical relationship no classical combination with wei, and read as pacing, not prophecy.
The Tiger has no classical relationship with Wei — no trine to ride, no clash to manage. The old texts simply have no script here, and that is itself the information: a neutral year is a year the calendar declines to editorialize about. The Fire Goat backdrop still colors the field — tending, depth, craft — and a Tiger\u2019s native boldness can point that emphasis wherever you choose.
A good year to let results compound quietly. Pick one or two fronts; the calendar is not asking you for drama.
If no outside script applies, what do *I* actually want this year to be about?
