Nicknamed The Shapeshifter, the earthly rich and curious gemstone of Tiger’s Eye invites the wearer to embrace their inner-strength, personal willpower, and to call on the powers of protection. Colored with golden bands, flecks of sand, and smudges of inky black and brown – there’s no disputing the wild force and energy that can be found in this stone. Traditionally the Tiger Eye Gemstone was carried as a protective amulet against the forces of evil. It was said to ward off curses and to keep the wearer safe from ill-wishes. But beyond the powers of protection, the Tiger Eye comes with a whole host of healing properties. Brimming with vitality and ever ready to pull someone out of a slump, Tiger’s Eye is an amazing fortifier of the blood and exceptional at balancing out the endocrine system. For those who tend to feel a little sluggish or soaked in lethargy, the Tiger Eye stone can use its fiery golden-brown chi to stir the pot and awaken motivation. Higher energy, a speedier metabolism, and a softer sex-drive all help the hormones to fall into alignment, effectively bringing personal biochemistry back to the best level. For those who suffer from seasonal depression, the warm-blooded stone also holds the heat of the sun, helping to alleviate the weight of dark and dreary days. Connected to both the root and the sacral chakra, the Tiger Eye stone comes with a glut of glorious healing properties and benefits that help to balance physical and emotional wellbeing in one straight swoop. More than just a pretty face, the Tigers Eye serves as a reminder to harness inner strength, to stand a little taller, and to stop sabotaging the self because all the light and love that is needed is already stashed inside. Instead of hiding away, Tiger’s Eye is all about bringing beautiful self-confidence to the surface.
