One cell of 144
Sagittarius + Year of the Tiger
Two calendars cross at your birth date. This is the cell where Sagittarius meets the Year of the Tiger, and the animal that lives in it.
Answer first
What animal is a Sagittarius born in the Year of the Tiger?
A Sagittarius born in the Year of the Tiger is the Lanner Falcon. The month and day set the Sagittarius half, the birth year sets the Tiger half, and the crossing points at one cell in a grid of 144. Read the Lanner Falcon for the full reading of that cell.
The two halves
What each calendar brings
The Sagittarius half
Sagittarius runs from November 22 to December 21, mutable Fire under Jupiter. You aim past the visible horizon. The far thing pulls you harder than the near thing, every single time. Read Sagittarius in the Western wing.
The Tiger half
The Tiger is the third branch and runs with the Horse and the Dog, the openhearted movers. You act on conviction while the room is still voting. Recent Tiger years are 1998, 2010 and 2022. Read the Year of the Tiger.
The crossing
What Sagittarius and the Tiger make together
Sagittarius brings the pull of the far horizon. The Tiger year brings the conviction that moves before the vote. The Lanner Falcon carries both at once.
You chase what you want in plain sight, at full speed, and you always know exactly when to pull up.
The Tiger runs in a trine with the Horse and the Dog. Held to the same Sagittarius season, those years give the Albatross and the Caracara, the two crossings whose engines run closest to yours.
The boundary
Born near the boundary?
The Chinese year does not turn on January 1. It turns at the lunar New Year, somewhere between late January and mid February, so a birthday in those weeks can belong to the animal before this one. The year finder checks the real date for any year you give it.
Common questions
Questions about this crossing
Is the Lanner Falcon the same as being a Sagittarius?
Sagittarius is half of it. The Lanner Falcon is the specific crossing of Sagittarius with the Year of the Tiger, one cell out of 144. Two people can share a Sun sign and carry different animals, because the birth year changes the second half.
What if I was born in January or February of a Tiger year?
The Chinese year turns at the lunar New Year, which lands between late January and mid February. A birthday in those weeks can belong to the previous animal, so the year finder checks the real boundary before the grid names your crossing.
Which crossings share the Lanner Falcon's trine?
The Tiger runs with the Horse and the Dog. Held to the same Sagittarius dates, those years give the Albatross and the Caracara, the two animals whose instincts sit closest to the Lanner Falcon's.
