Por Sala Tan

Red Tiger Spirit Fang (Suer Daeng Kaew Kraden)

This piece represents one of the most potent forms of tiger magic in the Lanna and Thai occult traditions. The red tiger is a long-standing emblem of courage, protection, and commanding authority, often invoked by warriors, shamans, and leaders for its ability to instill fearlessness and dominance over both physical and spiritual adversaries.

Historical Background

The piece is crafted from Mai Kanon wood, a sacred and rare material used sparingly due to limited availability. The carved red tiger head signifies fiery vitality and the ability to repel malevolent forces, while also amplifying auspicious fortune. Mounting was completed with a lead base and Burmese cave soil, combining elements of earth and metal in ritual balance.

Blessings and Effects

The tiger spirit embodied here brings Maha Amnaj (authority and command), enhances personal magnetism, and guards against dangers, curses, and spiritual disturbances. In traditional practice, the red coloration intensifies blessings of luck, decisiveness, and resilience, making it especially sought after by individuals in leadership roles or those needing strength in business and negotiations.

Ritual Construction

Consecrated under the wicha of Na-Ma-Pa-Ta, representing the four elemental foundations, this piece bears inscriptions and yantra carved into the old relic material, channeling protective forces. The ritual lineage comes from Por Sala Tan, who incorporated both Lanna and Burmese influences, ensuring depth of potency.

Significance

At over 70–80 years in age, these materials and this form of construction are exceedingly rare. The combination of sacred wood, elemental soil, metal, and inscribed fang makes this Suer Daeng Kaew Kraden not only a protective amulet but also a historical artifact of Northern Thai occult craftsmanship.
