If lion is known to be the King of the Wood, tiger is regarded as the Lord of the Mountain. Nothing gets in the tiger’s way thus bearer of the tiger tattoo would experience a smooth and obstacle-free life. The head of the tiger carries the Chinese character which means “King (王)”.

The eyes of the tiger strikes deep fear into its enemies and terrified them away. Thus the tiger tattoo is able to keep all the bearer’s adversaries away from him. The tiger is a “yang” animal and its strong “yang” energy is able to protect and defense against evil invasion. The claws of the tiger not only serve as a deadly weapon but the scratches on trees done by the tiger serve as territorial markers.
