Unusual Tiger Collectables

The tiger symbolizes royalty, strength and can also be a manifestation of the Earth Mother.  In Chinese symbolism the tiger is King of the Beasts and Lord of the Land. When it is yang, the tiger, in Chinese symbolism, takes the place of the lion in the West and depicts authority, courage, military, prowess and the fierceness needed for protection. When in conflict with the yang celestial dragon, the tiger becomes the yin as the earth, the two together represent the opposing forces of spirit and matter.
