Garden
Growth, cultivation, inner peace
Tiger
Raw power, unpredictability, courage
Garden
Gardens represent the cultivated aspects of your psyche — the parts you've consciously nurtured and grown. A beautiful garden suggests inner peace, creativity, and personal growth. A neglected garden may indicate aspects of yourself you've been ignoring. Planting seeds represents new intentions, while harvesting represents reaping the rewards of your efforts.
Tiger
Tigers represent raw, untamed power and primal instinct. Unlike lions which often symbolize social authority, tigers are solitary and represent individual power and fierce independence. In Chinese culture, the tiger is king of all beasts and represents courage and protection. A tiger appearing in your dream may signal that you need to harness your personal power or face a situation with courage.
