22-05 The Year of the TIGER recovery and growth.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from February 1st

Chinese New Year 2022 will see the water Tiger come bounding in. After 12 long months of metal Ox and taking cautious steps forward now, we have completely different energy. 

So here’s everything you need to know about the Chinese zodiac and how the Year of the Water Tiger will affect your animal sign..

WHAT DOES THE YEAR OF THE WATER TIGER MEAN?

The Water Tiger year is focused on connecting with others, taking risks, and having a good time. We’re all going to want to meet new people and have new experiences this year.

For individuals in 2022, this means parties, excitement, and rule-breaking because Tigers are rebels. 

On a global level, world leaders may circle each other, growl, and argue—Tigers are fighters after all. Countries will talk of firming up borders, as these beautiful animals are territorial.

At the same time, individuals will want fewer boundaries and limitations, to be free—Tigers love freedom after all.

Financial markets will go up and down, with risky moves being very much associated with Tigers. However, just like the animal stalks their prey, profits will be made by those who are paying attention. 

There will be marvelous technological breakthroughs, as Tigers are early adopters.

Passionate behavior and wild love affairs will hit the headlines as the combination of friskiness and foolhardiness attached to this year’s animal can spell scandal.

All of this year’s energy will come in spurts, followed by periods of quiet. The Tiger, just like your average house cat, loves to nap and when they awake—let the excitement resume!

The elements are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Think of these elements as building blocks or categories. The elements represent a color, a material, a shape, a taste, a feeling, a planet, and energy.

Wood represents the color green, things made out of wood, things that are tall like a tree, things that taste sour, the feeling of anger, the planet Jupiter and the energy of growth. 

Fire represents the color red, things on fire or made of plastic, things that are triangular in shape, things that taste bitter, the feeling of joy, the planet Mars and the energy of action. 

Earth represents the color yellow, things made of earth, clay, or stone, things that are low and flat in shape, things that taste sweet, the feeling of rumination, the planet Saturn and the energy of stillness. 

Metal represents the color white, things made of metal, things that are round, things that taste pungent, the planet Venus and the energy of the organization. 

Water represents the color blue, things made of water or glass, things that are shapeless and organic, things that taste salty, the feeling of fear, the planet Mercury and the energy of communication.


2022 WATER TIGER

Recent years of the Tiger are: 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022

Now comes the Tiger. (2010) Powerful, passionate, rebellious, and unpredictable. The Tiger is our fearless fighter, and people hold them in awe. They love the limelight and their dynamic personality can open many doors. They live life as if it is their center stage, and people around them are there to enhance the play. With their charisma, they get away with lots and can talk others into doing things for them just because they are tigers. They have a very human side showing love and affection for babies and animals. As a lover when they love they love 100% for that moment till their attention is directed elsewhere, to sustain their attention you must give them a lot of attention. They live purely on impulse and rebellion on tradition. Logic is not their thing. The song by Carle Simon, “you’re so vain you probably think this song is about you”. May have been written for the tiger. However, the tiger who can be warm loving, and great with kids can also be a child themselves if they do not get their way. For all this, the tiger is a formidable foe and one to definitely have in your court.

Rabbit Years of birth: 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023

RabbitYears of birth: 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023

The Rabbit (2011) is said to have a long life, the rabbit is gracious kind sensitive, and has good manners. They look for tranquillity but are also inclined to be moody. They appear indifferent and generally hold academic positions. Although they appear to be detached they hold much criticism inside. Good at business and smooth negotiations will ensure a good career. In love, their self-assurance requires them to marry for position and security but will give all they have to give in love. Reserved artistic and good at business, the rabbit with their smooth negotiations will ensure any career they choose. Liking harmony, the rabbit does not understand why people are so nasty to each other. Although do not mistake this, the rabbit will get the contract signed, but by courtesy, consideration, and patience, you will not even be aware of it until you have signed on the dotted line. This does not mean that they are deceitful, but rather that they are clever.

 Dragon Years of Birth: 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024

  • The Fiery Dragon (2012) a very lucky sign and one in which many children are born, (including one of my daughters). Magical and imaginative the dragon is full of vitality and strength. They have very high ideals and command high standards from others as well as themselves. Do not challenge the dragon you will find them very opposing and do not hurt the ones they love or anger them or you will sorely regret it. On the other hand, they do not like defeat and can be a sore loser. If they like you, you will forever have a protector and a friend, and as a lover they take adulation for granted, knowing that they are well liked so therefore well loved. If they choose you for a mate, (and this sign is also quite happy to not to marry and just have good friends,) they will protect, lecture and support you forever. Dragons do not tolerate fools or deceitful people and their wrath can be very imposing. They are good with money, easy come easy go and prefer to live in a relaxed environment. Somewhat leaders by nature, they will only want the job if they are interested. Funny and liking a good time, a dragon is good at a party and is very adventuress.

Snake Years of Birth: …1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025…

The forever-misunderstood Snake (2013) is a deep thinker, always looking for the meaning of life. Generally mystical with a lot of natural wisdom, the snake loves books, food, music, and the fine things in life. Using their own judgment rather than others, they like their own advice. Superstitious and a little intense they like to settle scores. The snakes wish to control their own lives through power and authority. They can be victims of their past and have a hard time moving on with life. Elegant, in speech, dress, and manners, but suspicious in nature, the snake distrusts anyone who breaks a promise. In love, their mystique and cool ambivalence draws lovers to them with ease, and will only marry someone who shares their ambition. Striving for the top the snake can talk themselves out of things because they are inclined to think it over and over again. They love the detail and wish for things to be in order before moving on with it. Although looked upon with fear, the snake is invulnerable and is only dangerous when it is fearful. Wishing to just be understood and respected the snake is harmless. Unless—-

Horse Years of Birth: …1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026…

Enter the Horse (2014) is the best year in my mind, as I am a horse myself. Cheerful, popular, quick-witted, and earthy. The horse falls in and out of love easily. However, they are perceptive, talkative, and have the ability to handle a difficult situation well and with authority. They are magnetic and commanding which can be presided as militant and aggressive at times although this is not so. Impetuous, energetic, and a flashy dresser. The horse although a non-conformist can be relied on to be accountable and honest. The horse will always be there for the underdog and has the ability to see both sides and counsel each of them well. Demanding a great deal from fellow workers they can and will just as eagerly work by your side as long as you know that they are the boss. Horses love freedom and pursue happiness at every corner. Being a person that feels their way around and who is constantly changing to the environment, they feel deeply and can be perceived as being moody, they are just adjustable people. They cannot keep regular hours and are best suited to flexible but demanding jobs, it is all or nothing. Very friendly and a true lover, do not let them down, they will forgive but never forget. They are protective of their loved ones and love with all their hearts, they like the home homey and love to run a little wild too. As friends, the horses will be by your side through anything, but if you betray them, you will be forgiven but forgotten too.

Year of Birth: 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027

This is where the Goat comes in the sequence  

The graceful Sheep/ Goat (2015) who is righteous, sincere, and a sucker for sad stories. They are fashionable, artistic, and creative but can be depressed and withdrawn. They are homebodies, liking children and needing to be needed. Luck favours them and their peaceful nature draws people to them. Unfortunately, the sheep/goat instead of standing up for their rights is timid and is more inclined to sulk rather than demand. Straight to the point is not their way and they wish you to find out what is bothering them rather than they tell you. Martyrs and worriers and are pessimistic about life and are inclined to look to the worst rather than the best of things. Romantic by nature, they wished to be pursued and fought for, the sheep need to be in a respectful loving marriage to survive, secure in life love, and mind. They have their favourites and if you’re not one of them do not take offense that is just the way it is. Neither forgiving nor forgetting is something they do easily, so don’t hurt them.

Year of Birth of the Monkey :  1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028…

The mischievous Monkey (2016) is an innovative, improviser, and motivator. The monkey is most like the man himself. Whatever they choose to do the monkey will succeed, no challenge is too great a chore, and they have the ability to use their intelligence when it is most needed. However, they do not respect others well as they have too much respect for themselves. Very competitive, confident, and cocky the monkey has been known to use his cunning powers to get their way. They are very sociable and can hold positions of high power. Very self-absorbed the monkey is not a giver for giving sake, in love the monkey will be warm and spontaneous, but be prepared to work hard and always strive for better, love in itself is not enough, ambition is indeed the forever attraction. Whatever you do, never try to trick a monkey they will have the last word, and watch them carefully they are masters of trickery. Fun can be had with a monkey if you like a little mischief or mayhem.

Rooster 1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017, and 2029.

Wake up to the Rooster. (2017) Has self-assurance and is old-fashioned. They are generally very attractive people, who are acute neat organized decisive upright alert, and direct. They can also be argumentative and a little cruel to others, they love to lord over others with their imposing knowledge. High-perform ring roosters seek opportunities to excel at anything, and if you try to challenge their knowledge you are in for a long haul, roosters do their homework and know their stuff. Do not be around when a rooster is negative, they are egotistical opinionated, and very abrasive, you will come out reeling from the experience. They are very good at handling money, accountants banking, and finances. Roosters will follow orders to a T, and they are very good detailed people and, accountable with your interest at heart. All roosters are a perfectionist, with a sharp eye for details, but if they think that they are right about something, they may close their mind to any other input. They are excellent right-hand men but sway away from the front line, as they do not have the public personality or patience that is needed to be upfront. Roosters love praise and are allergic to criticism; they make a good spouse and a good family person, just as long as they are the boss. For all that steadfastness, they are very vulnerable but will fight to show up.

Years of the Dog: …1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030…

The likable Dog (2018) (another of my children) is honest, intelligent, and direct. They are the most loyal and trustworthy of creatures and have much passion for Just as and fair play. Dogs are friends to all people and are fair listeners meeting people halfway. Dogs will look out for everyone no matter what but are inclined to neglect themselves and leave themselves vulnerable. The dog has a great understanding of humans and instinctively knows right from wrong, who to believe, and who to be wary of. When a dog loves, it is with all its heart and loyalty, this is often taken advantage of and the dog often gets hurt. Forgiveness is strong and even if they move on they will remember the once-loved one fondly. Do not push the dog into a corner, they will instinctively come out fighting in any which way. In love, the dog likes to get to know their suitor slowly as trust is an issue, but once trust is in place, they will encourage growth in their loved ones and equilibrium in their lives. As it is with children the dog will act like a playful puppy when young and will take the time to learn the ways of the world, but what is nice is that they will never lose their playfulness. All in all a dog is a very good person to have in your life in any way.

Years of the Pig: 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031

The steadfast Pig (2019) is, of all the signs, one of honesty and of a real genuine person. The pig is the ultimate diplomat, balancing both sides and keeping the peace. The pig is those people that make everything happen with ease so as you do not notice it even happening, but notice if they are not there. They socialize very well and like to be in the company of up-and-coming people, though they prefer to watch from a distance. Excellent in the line of fundraising and social work, the pig does not mind being truly committed to the cause. The pig is a little too trusting and allows themselves to be exploited by others without knowing it. In love, the pig is devoted and does everything for their loved ones except perhaps discipline them well, as they do not like confrontation. The pig is unselfish and caring and is very good to have as a friend if their motives are not interfering or judgmental.

Rat years: …1912, 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020…2032

First came the Rat, (1997) with its charm and innovative personality the rat uses its wit and intelligence and has been known to be crafty, forthright, and an excellent businessman/woman, who is always alert to new opportunities. The rat is much underestimated, due to the very fact that it is a rat. They are very intuitive gregarious and smart people who will use their charm and smarts to get them to the top. Never underestimate them, they do not miss a thing and remember a lot. Whereas the tiger, horse, and others are at the forefront, the rat does not mind taking the back stairs to get where they are going. They know they will get there and are not afraid to give someone else the limelight.

OX Year of Birth: 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021

Then came the Ox, 2009 prosperous through fortitude and hard work, the Ox is dependable, calm methodical, and stubborn. Many Ox‘s held positions of power and their fairness holds them in good stead. They like order, respect, tradition, and are predictable and honest. Alas in love the Ox does not quite know how to respond to romance but when they like you they will stand by you, loyally, but also may take a long time to commit, be patient they are solid people and worth waiting for. Although they have a lot of patients do not try it on too much, because when they lose it, it will be a terrifying experience. The rooster seems to understand the Ox best and the Goat and Tiger will not get along well at all. Give them time to do their stuff; it is worth waiting for the results.


Having had experiences with all of the signs, I have to say there is a lot in it. We take on the characters of the animals and unknowingly become them. I also believe that the “True Colours”, Zodiac and ‘numerology” plays a big part in it too. The Chinese take this all very seriously. This year, FEBRUARY 1st is Chinese New Year’s Eve, and it is welcomed with feasting and socialization. There are parades, and the Dragons and the Lions perform for money, reflecting the old times when they used to give protection money to the gods for said protection. Not much has changed there, except that it is done far more aggressively now.

Chinese Zodiac Chart (1900-2031):
This chart shows the order of Chinese Zodiac Years. The years in the table are the years in which the Chinese year starts. If you were born before the Chinese new year is the year you were born, your animal would be the previous year’s animal. Use the calculator above to determine what Chinese zodiac you are, or use the table below.

21-43 Halloween Fun & Safety

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 26th

Halloween is coming up and it is going to be different again this year. We know our kiddies love dressing up and having fun Trick and Treating if they are allowed to this year. We can make it fun and safe for them no matter the restrictions. Have a party at home with your close friends (that applies to adults too), hide the treats and make it a hunt.

Your school may have a dressing up day, but for those that don’t, because of religious reasons or? we can still share the candy and joy if not the reason behind the day. We do not have to buy an outfit, mix and match what you already have, and go to town with the makeup, get creative.

Now to those who are going to suffer from the fireworks, please know this is serious and we can do laser lights to music, drones, and other things and not the loud fireworks that cause so many problems for so many living beings. Let not our momentary joy cause so much pain and suffering for those who fear the loud bangs and for our creatures who will be affected because of them.

HAVE A GOOD TIME WHILE BEING MINDFUL AND RESPECTFUL PLEASE.

21-24 Putting Fear in its Place.


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy on air from June 15th

FEAR, WE ARE SO CONDITIONED TO BE FEARFUL, THAT HALF THE TIME WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE ARE FEARFUL ABOUT.

Fear is necessary in times of danger, it serves us very well in telling us there is something to be fearful about. BUT, fear in our every day lives is crippling us and we only end up chasing shadows. Have you asked your fear why it is there? why it wished you to stop moving forward? why it holds you back? Maybe you can look at fear eye to eye and ask it to explain its self and justify its reason for holding on to you so hard.

I have known fear, real fear, and the fear of not being enough, not fitting in, of letting people down of never living up to everyone’s expectations, I know that fear, both fears very well. I had to have that conversation with fear, I had to face it and tell it that it could not control me anymore and that I needed to move on in wonderment, possibilities, and exploration.

Fear does have its place as a protector, but not as a dictator, and if we give it too much power it will take over and rule you in every way, then your life will be a string of excuses of why you can’t do anything instead of believing you can. We are so much more than we allow ourselves to be, so much more than we are told we are, and the only way to self-discovery is in the willingness to face that fear, discover our strengths, our incredible abilities, and see the possibilities that lay before us.

So even though your stomach is turning, you are shaking, even feeling sick, stand up, tune in to your divine senses and take that step forward, for when you do, again and again, you are telling fear where to go, and that you and the source energy is in charge and you are in the discovery of your true self and all the abilities you are here to share.

21-16 Pay Attention to the Details says Sara

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 20th

So many times a guest misses a show because they do not pay attention to the time zone. East, West Middle, what ever it is, please pay attention and be there at the right time.

We are so busy rushing to the next appointment that we do not read all the info needed for the one you are at or going to, stop, slow down, take a moment and be present.

It is the same with postings, take the time to read some of them and comment on what you have read/listened to. It is called respect, and you may just learn something along the way. Life is not about hurry up, it is about a steady step one foot in front of the other and see what is right in front of you, or you may miss out on something profound.

https://soundcloud.com/plv-radio/21-16-pay-attention-to-the-details-with-sara-troy

We just cruise on by only Liking, and not commenting because we are in such a hurry, WHY? are you on a Like quoter that you can not stop to read or see something to its end and then comment? Have some respect for those that have taken the time to post it, to share with you, to reach out. I am not talking about pretty pictures where a like or love or laugh is enough, but those where time has been shared and a decent reply is nice to give. So please take the time to read a document, an email, text, posting and get your facts right and respond appropriately.

So when Zooming, calling, or meeting someone, know the details first, call, meet Zoom on time in the right time zone and remember, if you don’t you have cost someone their time and maybe money.

Taking some time to chill and take life in, just breathe and enjoy, stop rushing.

21-14 Podcasting Dedication for 9 years

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 6th

Well, 9 years already, where does the time go. April 4th 2012 I did my first Podcast live, oh boy was that an experience, As it was live, I had to know when to come in at the right time pressing the eight buttons, but whoops, I pressed the wrong ones. 13 months of live podcasting was a great education and one that set me up for building my own platform.

In June this year, it will be 8 years of my own platform where I have over 2700 collective shows and I have done around 2000 of them my self. It is an honour to have shared the stories of so many illuminating people who have gone through their own process and become the FLAWSME AWESOME people that are today. They share their wisdom and skills acquired from their journey and are now here to serve others showing them the possibilities that lay before us all.

https://soundcloud.com/plv-radio/21-14-podasting-dedication-for-9-years
