The Rock Star of the month for June is Tiger Eye.

Tiger Eye is a type of Quartz. It is found in South Africa and India mainly. Colours range from golden brown to red.

A variation of Tiger Eye called Hawk’s Eye is blue. Tiger Eye is easily identifiable by its shiny silky coat and chatoyance that gives it the shimmering appearance of the slant of a cat eye. It is said to promote insight and clarity of vision.

Very much an earth stone, Tiger Eye is grounding and protective. Use Tiger Eye to aid in concentration and focus. It can help those with Attention Deficits. It also protects during travel and promotes night vision. I used to carry a Tiger Eye stone in my car when I commuted out of town for work.

It is also a warming stone and as such is healing for those with asthma or bronchitis. It is best worn as a chest length pendant for this purpose or taped to the skin. Tiger Eye, with its golden tones also supports personal power via the solar plexus. It attracts prosperity and like Citrine can be kept in the cash box. In Feng Shui Tiger Eye is used to increase calm and patience. It is especially useful to place in children’s rooms.
