When you have dreams that seem to exceed the boundaries of your reality, your subconscious could be trying to send you a message through symbolism.

The subconscious mind is what rules your dream realm because it is just that: boundless.

While your logical mind may try to understand things in a very linear way, your subconscious picks up on the subtle nuances through images, feelings, colors, and emotions that you may not consciously pay attention to.

This is why your dreams may come off so “crazy” at times.

To better understand the meaning of your dream when a powerful tiger shows up, it’s best to get to know the essence of the tiger itself.

Your subconscious knows that every time you’ve ever seen a tiger — whether that be in a zoo or even in a movie or documentary — you pick up on it’s powerful, intense energy.

A tiger is one of the largest cats native to India, which is also where many ancient spiritual principles have originated.

It’s natural habitat lies within the jungle, although modernly you may see a tiger closer to more inner cities than ever before because of the different areas humanity has decided to cohabitate.

If you pay attention to the way that a tiger maneuvers, the sign of a tiger in your dreams could be to trust your natural instincts and intuition.

It is also always ready to hunt or attack when the time is right and never backs down from a challenge.

So, this could be a sign that it’s time to overcome an intense situation in life.

Consider the fact that tigers are nocturnal creatures as well, so they can do everything just as well in the dark as they can during the day.

This could be symbolic for you being able to maneuver through the darkest times in your life without fault if you trust your intuition.

Common Tiger Dream Occurrences

Everyone has different dreams, but many of us could share similar dream experiences.

You may be surprised to hear some of the most common instances others have had dreams about tigers.

Here are some of the most familiar tiger dreams and how they’ve been interpreted before.

Trust your own interpretations and feelings to guide you when trying to understand your own dream meaning!

Chased By a Tiger in Your Dreams

There are many people who dream of being chased down by a wild tiger, but this obviously doesn’t have a very realistic meaning for your day to day life.

Your subconscious could be trying to tell you that you may be trying to run away from your own emotions about a certain situation.

This dream could also mean that you’re shying away from your own intense personal power!

If you feel that another situation or person may have control over you in your real life, then the tiger could be encouraging you to stand up for yourself and take control over your own life again.

Dreaming of a Sleeping Tiger

Even if you come across a sleeping tiger in your dream, you could be enchanted by their subdued power.

This is a good time to ask yourself questions about the details of your dream.

What were your feelings when you came across the tiger in your dreams?

Did you want to approach the tiger or were you so fearful of waking it up that you tried to run away?

Either way, a tiger sleeping in your dreams could be showing you that you’re literally sleeping on your own power, or not recognizing what a force you are.

You could be tip-toeing around the fact that you have so much more potential and not tapping into it.

You may have hidden talents or a strong force that you have yet to explore.

Observing Tigers On The Hunt

If you haven’t noticed, tigers are one of the biggest, wildest cats in all of the jungle!

They are considered to be highly competitive predators and are mostly known for their amazing way of hunting their prey.

If you dreamed of watching a tiger on the hunt, this could mean that you hold the same type of goal-oriented energy within you.

You may be ready to start a new journey and move forward, blasting through any obstacles.

This may be the perfect time to come up with a bullet proof “plan of attack!”

Dreaming of Different Types of Tigers

There are different types of tigers that show up in people’s dreams.

Although many people don’t know the exact species of tigers in their dreams, they could recognize the difference by the different colors of the tigers that show up while they are sleeping.

Some people may see the most commonly known type of tiger, which is usually an orange tiger.

The dream symbolism listed above may apply to those types of dreams.

However, if you find yourself dreaming of a white tiger, this could hold special dream symbolism.

White tigers are not as common — in fact, they are considered to be an endangered species.

The color white overall is connected to heightened intuition and unique gifts specific to you.

If you find yourself entranced by a white tiger in your dreams, it may be time to explore your spiritual gifts and see what comes to you.

Tiger As Your Spirit Animal

The spiritual realm may send you different signs, symbols, and synchronicities to help you along your individual journey.

These symbols are specific to you and will stand out to you on your journey.

If you find yourself spotting different tiger pictures throughout your day, coming across posts that randomly have tigers in them, or even amazingly see a tiger in real life, but especially in your dreams… a tiger could be showing up as your spirit animal!

Spirit animals show up for you as “spiritual medicine” or offer you their essence to help you along your journey.

When a tiger shows up as your spirit animal, it’s time to release fear, step into your power, confront your weaknesses, and become more goal oriented on your journey.

It could be helpful at this time to work on your solar plexus chakra, which is one that holds a bright orange color and is directly connected to your personal power.

Meditating, eating orange foods, or listening to healing music specifically for the solar plexus could be very beneficial right now.
