A dream featuring your tiger animal spirit guide could tell you about your ability to overcome obstacles in life or the courage you have to demonstrate in order to defy challenges that are on your way. The expression “fight like a tiger” illustrates this point.
If the dream shows the tiger totem in a positive light or a guiding role, it could be interpreted as an encouragement to use or develop the qualities or attributes you usually associate with tigers. Imagine the feelings and ideas that the presence of the tiger triggered in your dream, and in waking life. Learn from what it would be like to adopt a “tiger-like” attitude in order to tackle the challenges you’re facing.
Dream interpretation: Having a bad dream about a tiger
Being chased by a tiger in a dream denotes how you’re trying to run away from your own emotions or desires. The tiger could represent anger or sexual desires that feel like they are so strong, they could destroy the person they are directed to or that is experiencing them. The presence of a tiger in your dream could reveal anger felt towards someone or circumstances that have a negative impact on your life. Dreaming of a tiger chasing you is a sign that a situation or an event in your life is having a profound emotional impact, but is difficult to apprehend or assimilate.
If the tiger is terrorizing you in your dream, think about what you’re trying to avoid so strongly in your waking life by fear that it could destabilize you or is too overwhelming to handle. Dreaming of killing a tiger could mean that you’re in the process of tackling detrimental attitudes or habits. Such a dream about your tiger totem could indicate that change is on its way, but requires strength and courage.

I saw a tiger in my neighborhood being taunted by people. They tried capturing the animal, but foolishly failed. No deaths or killings happened, the people would run then come back to taunt the creature like its a game.
There was a horizontal 5 foot tall fence, it seems like the tiger tried to climb over it but it’s lower paws would get stuck in the fence. I was in a glass room with my wife and kids watching this event unfold. I saw some guy took advantage while the tiger’s bottom paw was stuck in the fence. The guy grabbed and pulled the bottom paws and wedged them in the gate deeper. The tiger roared, it didn’t swipe. The guy ran from the roar, and then came back. It eventually got free, and chased some of these people who where taunting it in circles.
Later I saw myself with my wife and kids riding in the back of a luxury car. And through the window I saw a populated neighborhood block where there was a baby tiger running up the left side away from us. Later I saw a full grown male on the right side moving away from us. And again no one was attacked, and it seems less people were fritened this time. Then suddenly this guy emerged from the same neighborhood block with a friend walking towards us, a person I don’t like and don’t get along with. He did look concerned about the Tigers being there, but was joking about it to his friend.
I’m not sure what this all mean.
Hi, I just had a nightmare. Dream was that I was on my way to office early one day. I stopped my car a long way back before my office and started walking down this road beside a beautifull cliff. Then I remembered I forgot the keys. As I was walking back I saw lights (sunrise) coming up on the left and I though it would be awesome to take a pic so I ran up the road and towards to open cliff. Just then there’s thunder and lightning happening but I’m Still running towards the cliff, I narrowly missed falling down but kept running towards my car I suppose. Just then I saw a tiger also running across me and it got scared seeing me,cos I kindof raised my hands and made a screaming noise at him. It ran a bit and I knew it’s gonna come back at me. I got ready to go head to head and then I woke up. What does this mean?
You might need to skip the NyQuil next time.

At the age of five, I saw a tiger at the foot of my bed. It was purring loudly and reclining with his/her paws in the frontal position. I remember that I needed to walk by the tiger in order to make to bathroom. I was not frightened at all, just a little surprised that there was a live tiger near my bed. I decided to go back to sleep and see if he or she was still there. I now realize that I was given a special opportunity to meet my animal guide at such a early age.

That’s the most craziest dreams I ever had.
I had a dream about a tiger last night. In the first part of the dream I was swimming in the ocean towards shore, I don’t know how I got into the ocean but I was a long way out. The first I saw the tiger was on my swim to shore, I passed him on the way – he was swimming out and I was swimming in. When I looked back he had turned around and was following me back into shore. It was an overcast day coming onto night and a storm was looming. I raced up into the dunes and watched for the tiger, he was battling the waves but made it onto shore. There was no where to run so I hid in the grasses of the dunes, he was walking slowly in my direction, I made a sound against the grass and he looked my way. Then the dream skipped to the second part. In this part of the dream I found the tiger wounded and he was unconscious and his leg was broken. I must have survived the first part of the dream because I knew it was the same tiger. I don’t know how he got wounded. I managed to get him to a camp fire and made a splint for his leg and got some water down his throat and I waited for him to wake up, it took a while. I slowly fed him some food hoping when he woke up fully he wouldn’t eat met. Then over time we became friends and eventually I was hugging him in my dream but he was still wild. What do you think it means?
Hi im akela i always wondered my spirit if it could possibly means that the t8ger is my spirit animal today i was in class i was doing group stuff and there was this tiger and i said can i have that and i dont know what i5 meant i just think this could really be my spirit animal.
No probably not it was just a desision u made. It could just be an animal trying to give a message. I know the tiger is my spirit animal yet bears kept showing up in my meditations, and it was as though it was trying to deliver a message. This probably has something to do with things going on in your life, and could mean that you are confused or afraid, and it could just be sending a message related to courage or taking charge of the power to control the things around you in your life. If this was just recent, no, the tiger is not your spirit animal. But pay closer attention, there are spiritual messages hidden in this.
About 10 years ago my husband won a stuff White Tiger at the fair. I love this stuffed White Tiger. I put it on my bed and when people come through my house they always jump because they think that it’s real. I named him Xander.Last night Xander came to life and was a real White Tiger. The only thing was every time I would try and leave out my front door Xander would bite onto my hand. Not in an aggressive way, but in a stay put kind of way. It got really annoying. It seemed like Xander was holding me back from stuff and I’m not sure what it is that I was being held back from.
Hello my name is Marc yesterday I had about my face changing into a tiger I don’t know wether it means something good or bad
This means you are ready to reach your final potential. The change of your face symbolizes the connection between you and your spirit animal.

I once read that a tiger chasing after you in your dreams symbolizes people with bad intentions wanting to do you harm.

I began Reiki a few months ago and during my second session I visualised a tiger. I recently started meditating daily and the tiger face and tiger eye keep coming up. I also visualised a leaf which to me represents something from within the jungle. I don’t feel any fear towards the vision but my Reiki healer suggested that I look up the meaning as this may be my spirit animal that I connect with. Any thoughts please? P.S. I literally visualise the same image of the tiger that you have at the top of this page.

The cow was being guarded by us he takes the cow without noticing us as we were in the bamboo bush. Later we lick each other and cuddle with love and happily ever after. What is this symbol I’m scared please help.
I had a strange dream recently. I was in what looked like a theatre and part way through the dream, it was suddenly full of tigers. They seemed aggressive at first so I stayed behind a cage-like area to keep away but one of them managed to jump through a hole in the front so it was right in front of me. However, the tiger didn’t chase or attack but rather cuddled next to me (felt very warm and covered my whole body); it was completely tame. I came here wondering if the tiger spirit did visit me in that dream.
well if you go on youtube it shows you ways to meditate to meet your spirit animal but it takes a lot of skill cause to do it you lose conciousness temporary and your practically going to another spiritual world
