Related background:

The Year of the Tiger is the year when the AD number is divided by 12 and the remainder is 6. The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 6. For example, 20 10÷ 12= quotient 167, and the remainder is 6. Then, 20 10 is the year of the tiger.

The Year of the Tiger is counted from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the year of the Zodiac is attached to the year of the dry branch, which is the year method of the dry branch calendar. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar). The lunar calendar only uses branches to mark the year, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve.

Tiger is the third of the 12 zodiac signs, and it belongs to the yin among the 12 branches, so it is also called "tiger time" from 3 am to 5 am at 12 o'clock every day.
