Cinna

A Wood Tiger leads with bold and magnetic. As a tiger, you'd rather be wrong loudly than safe quietly — and the wood element makes you growth-seeking and principled — you push upward, toward light.

The texture of Wood Tiger: green wood, still bending. Where it costs you — burns the bridge while still standing on it. That blind spot is the price of the same intensity that makes you unmistakable.
