Tiger’s Eye is a metamorphic crystal that is amber-brown with bands of golden yellow. It gets the name Tiger’s Eye from the banding that makes the stone look like a tiger’s stripes.
Tiger’s Eye crystals have their own healing properties and are aligned with one of the seven chakras. These unique characteristics can help you determine if you should start wearing Tiger's Eye crystal jewelry.
This post is specifically to help you better understand your new Tiger's Eye crystal fidget ring. If you are looking for more information about crystals in general, check out our Crystals 101 guide.
What are the Benefits of Wearing Tiger's Eye Crystal Jewelry?
Tiger’s Eye is also known as the stone of protection. The crystal has four healing properties that explain the benefits of wearing Tiger's Eye jewelry.
Healing Property 1: Courage
As a stone of protection, Tiger's Eye is believed to protect a person from their fears and invoke bravery. Tiger's Eye crystals have been celebrated for making a person feel more courageous when they use it in their healing practices.
When you're getting ready for the first day of school, starting a new job, or even growing your family you might feel like you could use some courage to embark on these new journeys. Tiger's Eye could be exactly what you need.
Healing Property 2: Integrity
Tiger's Eye crystals are also associated with integrity. Sometimes doing the right thing and following your morals can be difficult. It can feel easier to just tell a white lie from time to time to avoid uncomfortable interactions.
Tiger's Eye is believed to help connect you to your moral code and always guide you to doing the right thing. This means if things get uncomfortable, Tiger's Eye will be there to guide you through.
Healing Property 3: Personal Empowerment
We might be biased, but this healing property is our favorite. Personal empowerment is integral to the CONQUERing brand and we adore that Tiger's Eye is celebrated for helping people feel empowered.
If you're getting ready to ask for a promotion, start a new business, or establishing who you are, Tiger's Eye would be a great crystal to use in your healing practice.
Healing Property 4: Clear Thinking
The final healing property associated with Tiger's Eye is clear thinking. Sometimes we got lost in our heads. We're stuck thinking about everything we need to accomplish in a day, what to make for dinner, and a million other distractions that occupy our attention.
Tiger's Eye is believed to help clear those thoughts so you can focus on the task at hand. This can be really powerful for someone that consistently finds their mind wandering and struggles to turn their brain off.
These healing properties are what make Tiger's Eye unique. If you felt like you could see how this crystal might benefit you, it could be time to give Tiger’s Eye a chance.
Tiger's Eye Crystal Chakra
Tiger’s Eye is primarily aligned with both the root and sacral chakras. When the root chakra is out of alignment you will likely feel insecure and unsure of your identity. Tiger's Eye crystals are believed to help realign the root chakra, which will stabilize your sense of self.
When the sacral chakra is out of alignment, you might be in a creative rut or have low feelings of self-worth. Tiger's Eye is also supposed to help realign the sacral chakra.
What Zodiac is Tiger's Eye Best For?
Based on the healing properties of a Tiger's Eye crystal, it is recommended that Leos use Tiger's Eye in their crystal healing practices. Leos are already natural born leaders and exhibit great bravery.
Tiger's Eye can make a Leo an even better leader by promoting integrity and helping them make important decisions with a clear mind.
How Do You Activate Tiger's Eye Crystals?
There's not necessarily "activation" that needs to happen to use your crystal for healing. Instead, there is prep you should complete to make sure your crystal is good to go for your practice.
When Tiger's Eye crystal jewelry goes through packaging and handling, there is a chance it could come into contact with negative energy. To get rid of this negative energy you can engage with any of the following methods to cleanse and recharge your crystal:
- Soak your Tiger's Eye in spring water. Tiger's Eye is water-safe so it's perfectly fine to use water as a cleansing method. Get a bottle of spring water and put it in a clean bowl. Leave your Tiger's Eye crystal element in the bowl overnight to soak. Make sure your element is fully dry before you start using it for healing.
- Use sage. Sage is a powerful herb that can be used to cleanse spaces, and objects, of negative energy. You could either get a bundle of sage and light it or burn sage incense. Run your Tiger's Eye through the smoke to cleanse it. If you choose this method, make sure you're burning your sage responsibly.
- Clean with a cloth. Another cleansing method you can use to get rid of negative energy is rubbing your Tiger's Eye crystal with a soft, clean cloth. This method is quick and easy when you notice your element getting dirty or appearing cloudy.
As you wearing your Tiger's Eye crystal jewelry, you'll come into contact with negative energy in your daily life. Every month or so, you'll want to use one of the above methods to cleanse your Tiger's Eye of negative energy.
Begin Your Healing Practice With Tiger's Eye Crystals
After you’ve gotten rid of the negative energy your crystal might have collected, you will want to come up with a specific intention that describes how you intend to use your element.
As we discussed above, Tiger’s Eye is known for its ability to protect. You might set an intention that empowers you to stand up for yourself and share your ideas in an important group project. You could also set an intention to be confident in yourself and your abilities.
Decide what your intention will be and then hold your stone in your hands and repeat that intention into the element. Repeating the intention ensures that the crystal is charged with your intended usage. When you wear your element, keep this intention in mind and make choices that align with that intention.
