The Tiger is connected to devotion, passion, and sensuality. Connecting with this totem animal is thought to bring about many adventures in a realm entirely your own. The folklore and mysticism surrounding the tiger suggests a number of qualities that totem bearers may possess. Nevertheless, all cultures point to those connected with the tiger animal totem possessing or finding a unique passion in their life.
Two unique aspects of the tiger animal totem are its connection to water and nighttime. This big cat’s ability to swim is thought to give it a connection with affects typically reserved for aquatic totems. Tigers also hunt during the night, killing their prey silently and hiding their gains. People connected with this totem may wish to reflect on their nighttime habits and any acts of selfishness.
