Tiger Eye Healing Stone
Tiger Eye is a solar stone of vitality, practicality and physical action. It stimulates the root charka and the solar plexus, assisting one in taking effective actions in response to the needs and challenges of physical life and remaining grounded, calm and centered, regardless of the outer or inner situation.
Tiger Eye is a stone of mental clarity. It activates and whets the intellect, sharpening the sword of logic. It also opens the mind to embracing paradox, enabling one to simultaneously hold contradictory ideas in a nonjudgmental acceptance that does not try to “solve” the conflict by favoring one. Such thinking is indispensable as one enters higher states of consciousness and begins to see the many paradoxes that riddle the essential nature of things.
Tiger Eye energizes the body to accomplish the imperatives of will. When one needs to persevere through extended time, hard effort and entangling difficulties, wearing or carrying Tiger Eye can lend one the strength to overcome fatigue or discouragement. Tiger Eye activates and aligns the lower chakras so one’s actions draw upon the full spectrum of primal strength, creativity and enlightened intention.
As a stone of the Golden Ray, Tiger Eye can aid one in making contact with the vibrational realm of Christ consciousness. Meditation with this stone can help one to move into a state in which one resides as a point of awareness within an atmosphere of “warm gold dust,” a place permeated with unconditional love and compassion. When one returns, one does not wish to simply ‘float around’ in the consequent bliss. Rather, one wishes to take actions informed by that consciousness which will bring its energy more fully into the physical world.
As a stone of balance, Tiger Eye works as it does with paradox. It allows one to find the harmonious center between all types of polarities. It helps one to see both sides in disagreements. It is an excellent stone for professional meditators. Those going through difficult negotiations such as those in divorce or custody matters are encouraged to bring along a Tiger Eye. One’s own ability and willingness to find common ground with the other will often inspire a similar response.
