Tiger's Eye is a chatoyant quartz that shows a silky golden band, like a cat’s eye. In folklore it is often described as a stone of clear perception, traditionally believed to help the wearer stay focused, ward off negative influences, and keep a steady outlook. Its warm, earthy tones have inspired myths of a protective spirit that watches over travelers and seekers of truth.

Zodiac & Chakra

Astrologically, Tiger's Eye resonates with the bold energy of Leo and the disciplined persistence of Capricorn. It is traditionally linked to the Solar Plexus chakra, the center of personal power, and is said to amplify fire‑element energies, encouraging confidence and courage.

Care

To keep its luster, avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and prolonged sunlight. Clean gently with lukewarm water and a soft brush, then pat dry. Recharge its vibrance by placing it on a quartz cluster or under the soft glow of a full moon.
