Chinese zodiac character for TIGER, TIGRESS that also was used as a euphemism for a shaman:「surrounded out-of-reach, rod down with plugged orifice emissions」as a combination of elements that likely are depicting FEARFUL RESPECT of the shaman in her doctoring role while treating gonorrhea with a bougie,「preference for extracting drops and emissions.」
　「Universal array of emissions」describes the SHAMAN PROPRIETRESS, but also EXTREME FEAR, such as when a prowling TIGRESS is stalking a pit hole hamlet between 3:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. causes in a human being a reflexive physiological response that instinctually is to freeze and remain paralyzed initially (「deer in headlights」) as one's anal sphincter constricts involuntarily with ever-increasing tension. This initial response is an evolutionary adaptation intended to prevent the spasmodic release of diarrhea, described in old English as「shatting one's breeches」which is the second phase of the instinctive human physiological reflex response, also referred to colloquially as「shitepoking the cloaca, heron」:
　「This process is so intense that soldiers very often suffer stress diarrhea due to redirecting of energies from nonessential parasympathetic processes, and it is not at all uncommon to lose control of urination and defecation as the body literally 'blows its ballast' and redirects all available energy in an attempt to provide the resources required to ensure survival. This is reflected in World War II surveys in which a quarter of combat veterans admitted that they urinated in their pants in combat, and a quarter admitted that they defecated in their pants in combat.」

　Perhaps elements are also「preference for extracting and emitting」from the plugged orifice area, or anus, which describes how and where tigers begin to rip open and eat a carcass after a kill, being the softest and easiest entry point.
