Meaning in the coffee cup
What does Tiger mean in the Ottoman-Persian reading?
The tiger shows how the reckless conduct of those around you pushes you into a perilous place; walk watchfully and do not leave your fate in another's hands.
What does Tiger mean in the Russian-Bulgarian reading?
The tiger is raw, clawed power, an aggressive nature close to you whose ferocity could turn on you at any moment.
What does Tiger mean in the German / Central-European reading?
In the household cup the tiger is a hot temper under your own roof: someone quick to flare up who must be spoken to gently. Keep the peace at the table and do not needlessly provoke that fiery streak.
Where in the cup does Tiger appear — and what does that change?
At the rim the threat erupts soon; at the bottom the danger has been long fed and heavy; near the handle the clawed hand comes from your own house, opposite it from a powerful stranger.
