Glimpses Of The Tiger

BaZi (birth chart) of Tiger Woods

Sports news in the papers screamed: Tiger Woods made history again! It was apparently another historic accomplishment by a golfing-great of our time. Much as I am completely alien to birdies and eagles, somehow, the name Tiger Woods strikes a chord...

http://www.astrodatabank.com records: 30 Dec 1975, 2250hrs, as the golfer's birth data. In Chinese metaphysics, birth charts can be derived from the solar calendar. The year, month, day and time of birth are organized in vertical pillars, each a composition of a Heavenly Stem (upper character) and an Earthly Branch (lower character). These Chinese characters are actually representations of Yin Yang and the Five Elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water). Together, they are known as Four Pillars or BaZi (eight characters).

Tiger Woods' self element is Geng (yang metal). His Day Pillar (Geng Xu) conforms to a formation called Kui Gang structure. Men possessing such structure usually exude charisma in their actions, and are more attuned to achievements in their respective fields (provided the structure is not being destabilized). Tiger Woods' BaZi exhibits such positive quality.

Wood to a Geng day master also represents wealth. And coincidentally, besides the presence of woods in his BaZi as well as his name, Tiger has also embarked on a professional career that requires constant contact with greenery. Besides, tiger is one-third of the Eastern Wood Combination (tiger-rabbit-dragon), and in itself also represents wood. The name Tiger Woods in light of Chinese idiom alludes to releasing the tiger back to its home ground (woods), where the beast reigns supreme!

Little wonder then that Tiger Woods is already making fortunes since a young age; his BaZi, name and choice of career are simply supportive!

...Tiger Woods...it's just meta-architectonically resonant.
