Tiger's Eye

Tigers eye is a striking golden-brown stone with a chatoyant shimmer that embodies courage, confidence and personal power. It blends the energy of the Sun and Earth to create bold, grounded determination.

Tigers eye boosts self-confidence and willpower, sharpens mental focus and decision-making, provides protective shielding, attracts prosperity and good luck, and balances the lower chakras for grounded personal power.

Carry tigers eye in your pocket before important meetings or interviews for confidence. Place it on your desk for sustained focus and professional success. Wear it as a bracelet on your dominant hand to project assertive energy.

Tigers eye resonates with the Solar Plexus chakra for personal power and confidence, and the Root chakra for grounding and practical stability. This dual activation creates bold yet sensible energy.

Cleanse tigers eye with sunlight for a few hours to recharge its solar energy, smudge with sage, place on a selenite plate, or use sound healing with a singing bowl. It is a robust stone that responds well to most cleansing methods.

Yes, tigers eye can go in water briefly as it has a Mohs hardness of 6.5 to 7. Quick rinses are fine, but avoid prolonged soaking as the fibrous structure can be affected by extended water exposure over time.

Tigers eye is strongly associated with Capricorn and Leo. Its ambitious, determined energy resonates with Capricorn's drive for success, while its bold confidence aligns with Leo's natural leadership qualities.

Genuine tigers eye has a silky, chatoyant band of light that moves across the stone as you tilt it, created by fibrous quartz replacing crocidolite. It should feel substantial, with visible fibrous texture. Glass imitations lack the natural banding.

Tigers eye is generally better suited for daytime use due to its energising, confidence-boosting properties. It may be too stimulating for sleep for some people. If you want grounding bedside energy, try smoky quartz instead.

Tigers eye pairs excellently with Citrine for amplified abundance energy, Carnelian for creative motivation, Hematite for double grounding power, and Pyrite for an unstoppable combination of confidence and prosperity attraction.
