The Tiger and the Snake

The Tiger got charmed by the Snake,
the Snake was also charmed by the Tiger.

The Tiger wanted to play and be loved,
so did the Snake.

But the Tiger like all Cats is a bit ruff at times,
and with his playful paws scrached the Snake,
past his skin.

And the Snake reacted to the Tiger the way Snakes do,
because that is his nature, and he bit the Tiger

The Tiger was hurted by the Snake,
so the Tiger snaped with her paws the Snake
with all her might,
just as all Tigers do when they feel danger,
because that is their nature.

And there the Tiger and the Snake remained,
not knowing what to do next.

The Snake said to the Tiger that his cave
was not a good place for the Mighty and Holy Tiger.

The Tiger was also in Love with the Snake and tried
to make the Snake play like a Tiger, she wanted to
work it out with the Snake.

But the Snake knew deep inside that
he could never be like the Tiger, or the Tiger like the Snake.

Not until they both have passed the influence of the
seven and the twelve.

The Most High Love, who place us all,
where we need to be corrected the Tiger and
the Snake earthly paths.

But in his kindness the Most High Love
left his seeds inside the Snake and the Tiger.
So one day, when they become pure,
they can come together as One,
in Spiritual Love.

Love is eternal, and that can never be lost.

The Snake was scrached very deeply,
and will never forget the Tiger.

In fact, now that the Tiger is gone
the pain of a lost friend remains deep within
the heart and soul of the Snake.

As the empty space remains in the cave that once the
the Tiger shared with the Snake.

The Snake will never forget,
the joy of feeling the warmth of
the Tiger.

In fact the Snake now continually prays that the Angels of
the Heavenly Father and the Earth Mother
protects their special friendship.

Very few creatures had ever gone as deep as the Tiger did,
past his skin and armor.

By the Snake, for the Tiger

      Tigers and Snakes can make good lovers, but life do seem to make things hard on them being able to live as a couple for a long period. The Tiger and I loved each other, but we was not compatible, lil stuff would get in the way, the Tiger likes to jump (reacts fast) and the snakes likes to get out of the way (fast).

        agreed. I'm a tiger and I'm very passionate. The snakes I know were passionate about some things but often cold in relationships not wanting to get hurt.

          maybe it's just the yin-yang difference.

          Tigers seem very "out in the open" about everything to me. Most tigers I know are very sociable, very friendly and seem a touch "aquarian". Maybe that's why the sign is said to be the Eastern equivalent of Aquarius. They like adventure and novelty and lots of people around them.
          They seem quite transparent. What u see is what u get, and all that.

          To the Snake it appears suspicious that someone so "direct" in day-to-day life can actually be passionate in private, cuz the Snake is a yin sign and is used to internalizing its energy and passion.

          I have read though that Snakes are supposed to be "the deepest, most profound" and all that witchy stuff.
          But I also remember reading tat they are the most passionate due to that yin mode-fire element conflict.(fire is the snake's fixed element). It's said to show the fact that fire burns under a cool surface.

          But speaking for myself, being a Snake with...am not sure yet if it's a Rooster or a Monkey hour Ascendant, I can be very passionate, but also very cool and detached when it comes to more "earthy" interests.

    The truth of tiger snake relationships, are that the snake has little in common with the tiger. Snake is not a "warm" emotional creature snake is logical and wise, and sexual. The constant and boring crusades to correct this and that situation are also VERY aggressive and not at all the way of the snake, which is to lay low and strike those who walk by if they DARE to make a problem. In my own life the truth is that the warmth emotionally the tiger shares comes at too high a price to be worthwhile. It is far better to live a life by logic and reason and sexual delight. Of course Tiger would see this a coldly calculating, but not "wrong", so living well will not cause tiger to interfere. Especially if piggies are not usually threatened if the keep their distance and do not criticize snake. If pig criticizes snake snake will retaliate. Thing is snake is justified in seeking revenge if wronged, and they always do. ALWAYS. Keep this in mind other signs. Snake lives coolly because he is truly feared amongst others.

      I have to agree with this statement

      the snake has little in common with the tiger

      : / Well thats what my life experiences have shown me even though i dont agree with them i have tiger friends accept the differences and just get on with life.

        My room mate is a snake and two of my very good friends are a snake. The two very good friends are however ex lovers which shows that arena didn't work out too well. I was always questioning what I was to them (as a tiger) and trying to get to know them deeper, and they wanted to keep it light.

          As a tiger, you was loved (im a snake).

          But the ways of the Tiger are not the ways of the Snake.

          A Tiger can playfully scrach deep the Snake, just by being a Tiger, the Snake is fast to retailate and fast to move away.

          A Snake can be Firends with a Tiger, but to have a Tiger living in the cave of the Snake all the time can prove difficult.

            Agreed Tigers are at best prey at worst dangerous leave them alone. ANY tiger who scratches me gets a dose of the wild animal within and NOT in a good way. Well what would you expect from a Leo water serpent?

            I have been living with my snake room mate since October, and we spent a lot of time together before that. But, we have a 2 level apartment, so when we need time away from each other we can escape to our separate world. The more we get to know each other the more similarities we find. Which is even more strange adding that I am a Pisces Tiger and he is a Gemini Snake. Maybe because we are both mutable go with the flow signs makes it easier.

            I loved both of my other snakes <3

            I think the Tiger Snake combination can be something too passionate when they are too close and it is best to be friends. But, I think they can have real friendships that are not easily matched by other combinations. The differences seem to overlap into something that can help each other grow. But, it probably depends on the sun signs too. Being a Pisces Tiger I am probably more sensitive to the ways in which I might scratch my Snakes.

              being sensitive to each other needs and space is the key to all relations.
              in the end, if it works for you by all means keep the blessings of the friendship

              cats can be loving, if they want, just be carefull with your paws, and most likely the snake will come close and cuddle with you.

                    wow, this was incredible. im a snake, in the middle of breaking up (maybe) with a tiger. everything you wrote is so true. tiger was so affectionate and warm and even though i felt just as strongly (probably moreso) i just couldn't show it. tiger wanted more commitment, more love, more everything and in the midst of all this excess snake felt afraid & engulfed. the tiger is now moving on (in true tiger fashion) and the snake is left behind nursing deep wounds. snakes dont have the same recovery time as tigers. it hurts very much.

                      As a tiger I can say a lot of when we act as if we aren't hurt is just so that people feel like they can't hurt us. Inside we feel the pain just as long.

                        ok ok Tigers take it easy. There are possibilities of compatibility between Tiger and Snake. Basically if there is a CAUSE a crusade that both agree is necessary then the tiger and snake can make a difficult if not impossible team to overcome. But BOTH would have to agree to not fight amongst themselves for this goal. Best way to check on compatibility is with this free chart, rather than talk in generalities.....

                          We have a very fine western astrology compatibility charts and common work goals are clearly expressed. I had no idea she was born on the year of the Tiger until i was "taken". :

                          There is a lot of complementary symbolism between what seem to be opposite.

                          She is a Queen Tiger and im a King Snake, it could not be any other way
                          we both powerful beings that have found reasons to work as one

                          > But BOTH would have to agree to not fight amongst themselves for this goal

                          that should be the goal of every couple

                          That particular website you posted does not give us much chance and is in total contradiction to a way more detailed western astrology chart that was made and confirmed by other methods of analysis.

                          Chinese have their ways of thinking, i dont agree with all the say.

                      I have purposely let down most all of my guards so not to seem secretive with my tiger. I am openly affectionate and dote on her always. She's the one usually telling me to slow it down. She has a biting tongue though. Not fond of that at all! I don't like saying sorry so I think before I talk. I make sure that what comes out is what I am actually feeling for real and not just in the heat of the moment.. (don't like being disingenuous).

    I can partially relate to the snake and tiger dynamic.

    I guess in Western Zodiac terms, I am month of the snake (Taurus) and a Tiger month would either be an early Pisces or a late Aquariun spanning most of February and very early March.

    I don't really have many friends whos birthday is in late February most likely because our chinese month masters are incompatible.

    This is probably why I've never been attracted to many Pisces women unless their birthday is after March 4th.

    This could also likely explain why fellow Taurens say they clash with Aquariuns but not so much with Leos.

    I have a lot of Leo friends but only a few Aquariun friends who have birthdays in late January. Do any fellow month snakes have this?

      Glenn-

      I've currently my 'claws' in a Snakey lady~
      Only 'cliche' thing that rings true for me is the Tiger's (me) need for independence; it actually doesn't surprise me she tells you to slow down, as I have had that exchange with meh leddeh XD

      Depends on the type of tiger, as I've met a lot of tigers would love and appreciate the sensitive spots of a snake, although I almost always sense the 'dynamic' quality that Tigers would die for before leaving. I tend to think Tigers love a challenge.
      I don't think just the year Chinese astrology is all what matters; her and I also share a lot 'sensitive' or 'family' qualities in our westro charts.
      I think it'd be worth seeing how the rest of your 'four pillars' balance out.

      For instance, mah Snakey has a Fire Tiger for her day ;D

      I don't like Tigers. They're too concerned with "worldly issues", whereas I think typical Snakes are much more inwardly-focused.

      I found it most insulting to read that Tigers don't get Snakes because they are totally "rational", whereas Snakes are ruled by "feelings". That's bull. Snakes are much more emotionally intense, true, but that doesn't mean they are incapable of sound logical reasoning.

      The people I know who have Tiger in their chart are just, like I said, much more outwardly-oriented, which means they like to be "of the world", they get involved, are active, which makes them appear more "rational", whereas Snakes may or may not give a damn, depending on their desire to seduce at any given moment.
      Snakes can be seductive, but they are rarely "social" creatures in the pure sense of the word, since a lot of their energy is geared towards their inner world of vision and intuition.

      However, like someone above pointed out, I guess it is possible for a Snake and a Tiger to get along if they have other compatible parts in their charts.

      I was the kind of Tiger that never wanted to leave my Snake.
      Her eyes captured mine.
      Burst me open from deep inside.
      Our connection was instantly deeply passionate.
      She had a bursting softness of the soul that I only die wishing I could have protected.
      For, even though I have a gentle exterior which can play very, very nice; my soul is a like warrior in constant turmoil.
      We loved one another, very deeply. She was the best friend I had ever had, though She had to leave me. It was -too- sudden, for me.

      I couldn't breath. Somewhere deep, I knew it was right.
      But it was hell.
      After everything, I feel honestly reformed.
      Ripped widely open.
      I learned more than I bargained for.
      Loved more than I ever have.
      Suffered deeper, longer.

      It's all a Tiger could ever ask for, and plenty more.
      I'm still fighting the last remaining battles within myself.
      I want to remain friends.
      But I think I'm ready to stop fighting now, anyway.
      The inner stronghold has been breached.
      The dust is settling.
      The only thing that could sustain me now is a passion that persists.
      I'm done testing the waters.

      To my Incredible Snake; Thank You for your Love.

        Here was a poem I wrote for her, describing the raw experience, shortly after she broke up with me:

        A heart bump jump start outburst
        Coagulating coalitions colliding continuously
        A sudden beam of light
        So bright

        How wondrously,
        A turn turns to a tumble
        A tumbling becomes sudden free-falling
        As the chances and choices, dance
        As the candle burns at its own center

        Then, just as it began
        The burnt trees, rise
        Sand fills your eyes
        Your frightened heart turns to stone
        Molten Lava rushes to the surface

        There is a vacuum forming deeply
        Demanding your utmost reality
        Becoming, only
        To burn you back to living; empty
        Furious fire, rising relentless

        Goodbye,
        My Love..

      Hi Kevin

      So are you STILL with your Snake? I'm a wood Tiger too and I'm falling in love with a Snake. I've had encounters with Snakes before but nothing serious. I REALLY like this girl tho. Also, I'm fire sign and she's water in Western astrology so it's "classically" one of THE worst combinations ever. However, I did out Western chart and we have many favourable planets, it's the best compatibility chart I've seen apart from the main signs. Surely love conquerers all and can even topple astrology??

      What does anyone think? Should I go for it?
