BLUE TIGER’S EYE
/HAWKS EYE /RODUSITE /FALCON’S EYE /SILICIFIED CROCIDOLITE

A variety of Quartz and a pseudomorph of Crocidolite. It forms when Crocidolite’s parallel amphibole fibers are replaced by silica. The parallel fibers create an optical property called “Chatoyancy” or “Cat’s Eye” effect, in which a band of light is reflected off of the parallel fibers of the stone. It is a metamorphic rock with a dark blue to gray color and a silky luster. Most Tiger’s Eye is mined in South Africa, but it can also be found in India, Burma, Australia, China and Brazil.

Associated with the throat & third eye chakras, zodiac signs of Leo & Capricorn & vibrates to the numbers 9 (blue tiger’s eye) & 7 (hawk’s eye).
