Alright, let’s yak about this Tiger and Snake thing in that Chinese Zodiac calendar. You know, the one with all them animals? Yeah, that one.
Now, I ain’t no fancy scholar or nothin’, but I’ve seen a thing or two in my days. And from what I gather, these Tigers and Snakes, well, they ain’t exactly two peas in a pod. More like a cat and a mouse, if you catch my drift.

The Snake fella, they say he’s smart, real clever like. Got a strong will, too. Knows what he wants and goes after it. Kinda like my old rooster, always struttin’ around the yard like he owns the place. But the Snake, he’s quieter about it, more sneaky-like.
And the Tiger gal? Whew, she’s somethin’ else. Full of energy, that one. Knows what she likes and what she don’t, no two ways about it. Reminds me of that wildcat that used to come ’round and steal my chickens. Feisty, that’s what she is.
So, you put these two together, and what do you get? A whole lotta sparks, that’s what. Sometimes good sparks, like when you rub two sticks together to start a fire. But sometimes, bad sparks, like when the cat scratches the furniture.
- See, the Snake, he likes things calm and peaceful. He likes to think things through, plan things out.
- The Tiger, she’s more of a “jump in and figure it out later” kinda gal. She likes excitement, adventure.
That can cause some friction, you know? Like when you try to mix oil and water. They just don’t blend too well.
Now, they say some folks are a good match for the Snake. Like that Ox, steady and reliable. Or the Rooster, always crowing about somethin’. And the Monkey, even though they can be a bit mischievous. But the Tiger? Not so much. They say the Horse, the Dog, and the Pig are better matches for her.
But here’s the thing about life, ain’t it? You can’t always go by what “they” say. Sometimes, folks surprise you. Sometimes, the most unlikely couples end up makin’ it work. So, maybe a Tiger and a Snake can find happiness together. It just might take a little more work, a little more understanding, a little more give and take.

They say the Tiger gotta watch out for the Monkey and the Snake, cause them two can cause trouble. And the Snake gotta steer clear of the Tiger and, well, some say the Pig too, even though others say the Pig is a good match for the Tiger, go figure! It’s all a bit confusing if you ask me. It’s like tryin’ to figure out which way the wind’s gonna blow. You just never know for sure.
But if a Tiger and a Snake really wanna make a go of it, they gotta learn to respect each other’s differences. The Snake gotta learn to loosen up a bit, not be so set in his ways. And the Tiger gotta learn to slow down, not be so impulsive. It’s like learnin’ to dance together, you gotta find a rhythm, gotta learn each other’s steps.
And most importantly, they gotta talk to each other. Not just yellin’ and screamin’, but really listenin’ to what the other person is sayin’. ‘Cause if you ain’t listenin’, you ain’t learnin’. And if you ain’t learnin’, you ain’t growin’. And if you ain’t growin’, well, you’re just stuck in the same old rut.
So, can a Tiger and a Snake find love and happiness together? Maybe. Maybe not. It all depends on them. If they’re willing to work at it, if they’re willing to compromise, if they’re willing to love each other for who they are, flaws and all, then yeah, they just might make it. But if they ain’t, well, then it’s gonna be a bumpy ride, that’s for sure.
In short, it ain’t easy, but nothin’ worthwhile ever is. That’s what I always say.
