Crystals It Works Well With: Cat’s Eye, Chalcedony, Topaz
How It is Created: Tiger’s Eye is basically a quartz but they formed in such an unusual way that the fibers of the mineral called crocidolite are laid down in parallel bands within the structure. This creates its silk like appearance and its “cat’s eye”.
History: Tombs in the ancient city of Ur in Mesopotamia (now Iraq) dating back to 2500 BCE have yielded gold sets with agates, like tiger’s eye and carnelian. The tiger’s eye was very popular due to the belief that it harnessed the power of the earth and the sun. This is why it is associated with the god of the sun, Ra and why Egyptians considered it a very valuable gem. Roman soldiers believed that the tiger’s eye was a symbol of bravery and would ride with pieces of tiger’s eye on them in order to encourage bravery during battles.
What It Can Do:
Shields the energy field or aura from negativity
Clears tension and mental blocks from the solar plexus
Can soothe, calm, and restore one’s body and mind
Banish the evil eye and curses
Attracts money while curbing impulsive spending
Used to detect liars and deceptions
Can increase confidence and pride
Placing it on your third eye can help enhance psychic abilities and balance your lower chakras
Helps unlock and unleash your true desires
Alleviates depression and lifts moods
Reduces crabbing and addictive behavior
How To Get the Best Out of Tiger’s Eye: Wear it in bracelet or amulet form.
How to Cleanse and Charge:
To cleanse: Lay it on a windowsill where the sun shines the most or bury it in your garden where the sun shines the most
To charge: You can also charge it on the windowsill with the sun. The sun really gives it a great charge, especially if one of the deities you work with is a sun god.
Crystal Grid:
Abundance (Spiral)
Base for the grid, such as wood, slate, fossilized wood, or golden card or cloth
Citrine
Goldstone
Green Aventurine
Herkimer Diamond
Jade
Moss Agate
Ruby
Tiger’s Eye
Topaz
If you’re laying a preparatory “cleansing” spiral, start at the topmost point and lay crystals alternately, with the points pointing out from the center.
Place the Goldstone in the center as the keystone.
If laying an abundance grid, begin by placing the Goldstone in the center, stating that your intention is for it to bring abundance into your life.
Lay a spiral of alternated crystals, pointing down and inward, until you reach the Goldstone.
Add a grounding stone if appropriate.
When the grid is no longer required, dismantle it.

just did a little sigil writing session that's left me feeling so energised and ready to face anything, so wanted to share! i burnt some cinnamon & bay leaves before i sat down to create the sigils. i then anointed them with some frankincense essential oil & am now leaving them to charge with some crystals on my alter. the crystals pictured are tiger's eye, amethyst, malachite, labradorite & prehnite. carved my new sigils in the candle that's burning too!
side note: ive started using charcoal discs to burn my incense & such and thought the dish i was using was heatproof. it was not. i now have a hole in my carpet. oops. learn from my mistakes people - be very careful with hot stuff lol
also, i have a witchy playlist that i put on whenever i sit down to do my stuff & when i finished & closed my circle the chorus for season of the witch by lana del rey started up and it just made me feel super charged! highly recommend playing music whilst you're practicing

For @smvillainsweek day 1, theme "redemption".
This was an idea I had for a while, about the Amazon Trio, post-redemption, becoming Helios' guardians, hence the similar outfit (kind of like the Shitennou with Endymion). You could call them the "Elysion Trio" (tho I also wanted to make them a quartet with Helios and refer to them as the "Four Beasts", a similar myth to the Shitennou one).

Tiger's Eye

Tiger's Eye: Mineral information
Tiger Eye is a gorgeous, chatoyant, semi-precious gemstone with alternating banks of golden to red-brown colors and a silky luster. It has a fascinating and constantly shifting light effect in which the gold and brown bands appear to keep reversing as the stone is moved relative to the light source. This effect is caused by the light reflecting off of microscopic fibers of crocidolite (a blue form of asbestos) within the stone.
An optical phenomenon, possessed by certain minerals in reflected light, in which a movable wavy or silky sheen is concentrated in a narrow band of light that changes its position as a mineral is turned.
Chatoyance or cat's eye effect, is an optical reflectance effect seen in certain gemstones, woods, and carbon fiber. Coined from the French œil de chat, meaning 'cat's eye', chatoyancy arises either from the fibrous structure of a material.
Tumblr media
As members of the quartz group, tiger's eye and the related blue-colored mineral hawk's eye gain their silky, lustrous appearance from the parallel intergrowth of quartz crystals and altered amphibole fibers that have mostly turned into limonite.
Tiger's Eye forms when Quartz forms over existing bluish-gray Crocidolite, and eventually entirely replace 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 color of the Tiger's Eye.
When cutting and polishing Tiger's Eye gemstones, skillful orientation to the fibrous structure must be applied to achieve the best chatoyancy. Ideally the cut should be perfectly parallel to the length of the fibers to achieve fullest chatoyancy. Cat's eye effect in Tiger's Eye do exist, but are uncommon in perfect form due to the wavy nature of the fibers.
Tumblr media
Other forms of tiger's eye Tiger iron Tiger iron is an altered rock composed chiefly of tiger's eye, red jasper and black hematite. The undulating, contrasting bands of color and luster make for an attractive motif and it is mainly used for jewelry-making and ornamentation. Tiger iron is a popular ornamental material used in a variety of applications, from beads to knife hilts.

Hawk's Eye Hawk's Eye Bluish-gray variant of Tiger's Eye, lacking the yellow or brown color. Hawk's Eye is formed from an incomplete pseudomorphism of Quartz after Crocidolite.
