Tigers eye is sort of a brown iridescent crystal with different colored streaks ranging from light gold to black. It’s one of the first crystals I gravitated towards as a kid playing with rocks so I always keep a stone or two around. It’s a great general stone to have in your stock and the unique qualities make me always come back to this natural stone.
What is it good for: Tigers eye is a great all-around stone. You can use it for general protection, although not as intense as other black stones. Tigers eye promotes focus of the mind, confidence, abundance and wealth. It can even help with anxiety. Tigers eye can also help deflect curses which is pretty much a win-win.
Should you wear Tigers Eye: Most zodiac signs can wear tigers eye, Capricorns are fishy, if you are worried about your stone having adverse effects try sleeping next to it for a few nights and feel it out. If you’re having nightmares then I would put it in a spot in your living area to help but indirectly. If you’re dreams are fine and you feeling good about it then you’re all in the clear.
How can you cleanse Tigers Eye: You can soak it in water or give it a salt bath if it’s a tumbled crystal. If you have a raw crystal do not put it in salt. Alternatively you can use sunlight if you are worried about damaging your crystal, but as long as it’s polished salt is fine.
How to charge Tigers Eye: You can easily meditate with your cleansed Tigers eye in the palms of your hand and set/say aloud your intentions. For instance you can say something like “This stone is to help keep my mind clear and help me focus.” Obviously you can get way more detailed then that but that’s pretty much the gist of it.
They say crystals find you first and make you gravitate towards them. What was your first favorite crystal?
