Tiger 虎

tora

Courage, and a guard against bad luck and disease.

Tigers were never native to Japan, so the classical drawings came from Chinese paintings, which gives them their flat, patterned faces. Paired with bamboo they stand for strength that bends. Usually placed where the stripes can follow a muscle.
