Term: Tiger Eye

DEFINITIONS

Tiger Eye: Tiger eye is a beautiful, golden-brown shiny stone which appears lifelike due to its chatoyancy, or silky luster. It is a crystallized quartz, made of silica. It is found mostly in Africa.

This stone has been worn through the ages to avert the evil eye and help prevent eye diseases. Tiger eye helps people gain insight into their own faults, and to think more clearly. This stone is helpful for greater spiritual understanding. It helps develop courage and inner strength, and gives one a sense of responsibility.

Tiger eye helps to defeat negative forces. Because of its ever-changing appearance when viewed from different angles, it helps the person using it to become “all seeing”, able to view different ways of observing a situation. It gives one the ability to become more direct, more channeled in their way of thinking.
