Lunar New Year in 2022 will fall on 1st February, however the actual First day of Spring for the year of Tiger in 2022 will fall on 4th February at 04:58 pm (Gregorian Calendar). The Four Pillars (bazi) of this date is ZenYin壬寅Year, ZenYin壬寅Month, Wu Tzu 戊子Day, and Chia Yin甲寅 Hour. In 2020, the first day of the Year of the Tiger will be on 4th of February, which means that Spring will arrive to be celebrated after the Chinese New Year.
On the First Day of Tiger belongs to earth element, the three pillars of month, year and time belong to Wood element, it represents that strong wood (star of government authorities) is invading the first day of Spring. Although it sits on the star of Wealth (water), it can hardly obtain wealth due to weak earth in comparison to the whole four pillars.
The whole four pillars of First Day of Spring belongs to strong Wealth, people will suffer scourge and pungent life because of seeking their money. The first day of Spring, star of Wealth appears on the heaven stem, and links to the earth stem, yet there is no supporting star to the star of wealth, but invaded and drained by strong wood (star of government authorities). How can wealth and finance be generated and obtained? The four pillars of first day of Spring, there is no auspicious stars (metal) to support the star of wealth. Therefore, in the year of Tiger, wealth and finance is only used and drawn from their own national reserve.
On the First Day of Tiger, fire element belongs to the good allies貴人 and it can protect the Earth element, fire is acting as Customs clearance documents and it will be considered as recognized vaccine passports. Local governments’ regimes and country between country’s regime will be divided. Strong country is asking weak countries to stand on their sides and some countries need to seek for their financial support to choose on their sides. Tiger is not a stable year, due to lacking of metal element to generate its wealth channels. Metal is also dominating people’s wisdom and lacking wisdom to analyse their thinking and a clear directions. Lacking of goal, spawn chaos or strategies will turn to wrong plans. The first day of Spring, four pillars have no supports, international relations cannot resume to the right track and countries need to keep on their own developments and struggles for their own finance.
The First Day of Spring belongs to Yang Earth, no fire element to support and drain away the strong star of government authorities (wood) and also lacking metal to restrain the strong wood.

However, due to metal element does not show in the four pillars of the First Day of Spring, all American clamoring, domineering and hegemony will be in vain. Finally, American will pay for her hegemony and definitely fail. Water is abundant and flow to Eastern wood, all European countries will still conceit on their own and secretly plan to deliver pressure to China. However, as per the metaphysical theory, western metal will generate water which will flow to Eastern wood and Easter wood will therefore be arising and Eastern wood will follow and generate to the Southern fire, a new and prosperous China arising.
