Tiger Eye
An Introduction to Tiger Eye
The naming of Tiger Eye is fairly self explanatory - this gemstone matches the powerful energy, appearance, and fierceness of the Tiger. This stone, also called Tigers Eye or Tiger’s Eye, contains reddish-brown shades with golden stripes. The surface of the stone is often silky and shimmery above its dark opacity. Tiger Eye is part of the Chalcedony family, making it a distant relative of other popular crystals, such as Agate, Carnelian, and Onyx.
Throughout history Tiger Eye’s attributed benefits included strength, courage, and bravery. In ancient Egypt, they believed Tiger Eye could capture the power of the sun god Ra. The Romans prized this powerful gemstone for its strength and physical protection, utilizing Tiger Eye during combat. In many other cultures, Tiger Eye was often used for protection against bad luck and curses.
Tiger Eye contains a natural balance of sun and earth energies, providing high vibrations, as well as grounding. It is fantastic for focus and goal completion. The dark brown hues help you to ground through the root chakra, while the gold flash energizes the solar plexus, drawing in abundance. With this balance you have a grounded energy constantly moving you forward to complete your big goals and dreams.
