Tiger’s Eye forms when Quartz forms over existing bluish-gray Crocidolite, and eventually entirely replaces it. Crocidolite is a type of asbestos mineral, which means its composition is of fine, dense fibers. These fibers form in a parallel yet wavy orientation, and this causes the intriguing chatoyant effect exhibited in Tiger's Eye. During the replacement process, the iron within the Crocidolite dissolves and stains the Quartz, thereby providing the golden yellow to brown colour of the Tiger's Eye
Tiger’s Eye stone history dates back thousands of years to when the golden-brown quartz was carved into amulets and talismans worn by ancient Roman soldiers. The tiger eye gemstone "flash" was also believed to be distracting to the opponent of a warrior or soldier. It was believed to help one remain calm and courageous, stay focused and persevere like the unwavering focus and determination of a tiger.
The tiger has infinite patience it will wait steadfastly until the time is right for it to begin the unwavering pursuit of its prey. Tiger Eye is believed to impart the patience of the tiger, giving one a greater ability to wait and the insight and clear focus to recognize when the time is right.
Tigers live in harmony with nature, using their impressive power only when needed. Tiger eye gemstones impart this balance and harmony by helping one to think clearly without anxiety or fear.
Tiger’s Eye imparts compassion, grace and unconditional love and will facilitate communication by allowing one to participate without anxiety or fear. The ability to think clearly with unwavering focus will provide a better understanding of one's path and how one can become a helpful force in the world.
Stones that have a more golden tiger eye colour are believed to impart a deeper sense of commitment and devotion. They facilitate mature enthusiasm, a desire for lifelong commitment and unconditional love.
