Dreaming about tiger
Power that cannot be negotiated with — a threat with no social dimension..
The psychological reading
Force with no social contract. Unlike wolves or dogs, a tiger in a dream cannot be appeased, only avoided or faced.
What has been counted. No separate figure. Animals occur in 18.3% of dreams, and about 30% of dream animals show impossible features — larger than life, talking, or changing form — which is the category big cats usually fall into. Searched 43,290 times a month.

Different ways this dream shows up
Most dream dictionaries give one meaning for the whole symbol. In practice the specific version carries most of the information — losing every tooth and losing one tooth are not the same dream.
How to record a dream, why the feeling matters more than the content, and when recurring nightmares are worth a doctor rather than a dictionary — set out once on the main page.
Before you look anything up
How the dream felt matters more than what was in it. The same image can arrive as comfort or as threat, and that difference tells you more than any entry in a dictionary — including this one.
