Golden Tigers Eye
As the energy at the moment is so chaotic and we seem to be in a constant state of flux, not knowing if up is down or if down is, indeed, up. It certainly seems as if it is some days, so I thought I’d recommend working with tigers eye, especially since we have just had the first eclipse of the month and are hurtling towards the next one on 26th February; and these two eclipses are linked with the two in August. The energy of these first two events will start working now and continue until August, so that is a huge energetic window to contend, with a total solar eclipse on 21st August at the end of it – a complete re-boot of our energetic operating system, no less. So, tigers eye certainly will help.
Not only is it an excellent grounding stone when used at the base chakra – which helps at any time – if you place a stone on either side of the head it will re-balance the two hemispheres of the brain and integrate them. This combined with a stone on the base chakra will help you feel very calm and centred, especially since as well as grounding you to Mother Earth, tigers eye grounds you spiritually, so having it near the crown chakra will enhance this quality as well.
And if you want to enhance your grounding into the earth, place a piece between your feet while you use the stone at the base chakra, or place a piece under each foot to activate the feet chakras.
If you are well grounded, but you are you are stuck and don’t seem to have the energy you need to do anything positive in your life, use the crystal at the sacral chakra. Its vibration will increase courage, determination, alertness and patience, and it will increase the amount of positive energy you hold in your system. That is always handy since everyone and everything is, unfortunately, so negative at the moment!
Tigers eye will also increase your confidence and help you to recognize all the inner resources you already have and can use for any task you wish to complete; and at the sacral, another bonus is it will inspire and enhance your creativity, not to mention it will help you to utilize all your gifts, talents and abilities. It is a great stone to work with really!
Also in a 1 year of new beginnings, tigers eye is really useful. It will actually support your new beginnings and allow you to re-establish harmony in your life. I think we could all do with some of that at the moment. I know I could! The crystal gives off a soft, gentle vibration which promotes calmness, even in the times of change, so why not work with it and ask it to boost your will power, your emotional stability and your energy levels while you start making positive changes in your life. This will work best if you use the stone at your solar plexus.
If you find you are fearful of making changes, or find it hard to deal with change if it is thrust upon you for any reason, use tigers eye with a stone which helps relieve fear. I would recommend the very lovely rhodonite.
If you are contemplating making any major changes in your life, I would say – always meditate daily with tigers eyes for a while before you do anything. It will help in so many ways.
When used on the sacral and the solar plexus for this purpose, the stones will promote self-confidence and a real appreciation of your true personal power. They will also encourage you to trust your intuitive abilities. And, you can wear tiger’s eye before you make a change in your lifestyle, and use the stone to remind you in a positive way that the change is coming and it is safe for it to happen.
Lastly, the angelics associated with this stone are Gabriel and Uriel, so feel free to ask them to join you at any time you are using tigers eye. They will always be pleased to help in any way they can! It is also associated with Sekhmet if you would rather work with a goddess.
I hope you get a piece of golden tigers eye and use it to improve your life on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. It is a marvel, though I am biased, and I would happily say that about any crystal!
But, please, if you find you are drawn to blue or red tigers eye instead – go for it! You are the one living your life and you will know on a very deep level what you need to do to make it wonderful!
Trust the thoughts and the feelings and go with whatever colour you need when you are drawn to work with it. The information above does work best with the golden stone, though.
Bright Blessings!
