What it means
In Japanese tattooing the tiger stands for strength and courage and is believed to ward off illness and bad spirits. Bamboo, which bends in a storm and does not break, is its usual partner, and the pairing is a classic of Japanese art.
Together they read as strength that knows when to give way, which is a better meaning than strength alone.
