Owen SterlingCatching a tiger is a dream that signals a confrontation with an overwhelming or unruly force that the mind is attempting to grasp. This attempt to secure the animal shows the brain trying to catch and hold an impulse that has felt wild or sudden. The dream prepares the mind to step from being driven by an impulse to controlling it.
The struggle inherent in this dream suggests that an aspect of the self or an external situation is being brought into a state of discipline. When the mind works to secure such a powerful symbol, it is attempting to harness energy that is both vital and potentially destructive. There is a tension in this movement, as the act of seizing something so fierce carries the risk of being overwhelmed by the very thing being mastered. The dreamer finds themselves in a position of active engagement with a force that demands total attention. The act of catching in the dream reveals a capacity to meet a sudden surge of energy without being swept away.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
