Tiger Legend
White Tiger Exorcises Demons and Protects the Country In ancient times, the Central Plains was in chaos, evil winds were everywhere, and the people were living in misery. The Queen Mother sent the White Tiger to the earth to suppress the evil spirits. When the White Tiger roared, the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked; when he took a step, the river flowed backwards. In a war, the White Tiger fought a thousand-year-old snake demon on the bank of the Yellow River, and the battle was so fierce that the sky was dark. In the end, the White Tiger killed the enemy with the power of thunder and protected the world. The Jade Emperor bestowed the title of “King of Beasts” on the White Tiger and included it in the Chinese zodiac. Since then, the tiger has symbolized bravery, justice and majesty, and is often used to ward off evil spirits at home.
