Cleaning your Tiger’s Eye stone

In lithotherapy, it is very important to clean your stones. Indeed, over time, they are charged with energy and can sometimes reach saturation. 

While there are certain stones, such as black obsidian, that do not need cleaning, most precious and semi-precious stones do need to undergo cleaning depending on their size and use.

The more you use a stone, the more you will need to clean it. Similarly, the more intense the activity of the gem, the more you will need to clean and purify your Tiger’s Eye. 

The idea is to relieve the stone. You have to imagine it like a sponge: when a sponge is saturated with water, it can no longer absorb. 

It must be emptied of its water to be able to properly clean the flooded surface. It’s the same with stones. We use them to discharge certain energies or, as in the case of Tiger’s Eye, to protect us from them. 

There comes a time when the stone becomes saturated with these energies and therefore can no longer do its job properly. It is therefore time to cleanse and recharge your Tiger’s Eye to be able to feel its beneficial effects again.

How do I know if I need to clean my Tiger’s Eye?

To know if your Tiger’s Eye stone needs to be cleansed and purified, it is necessary to show great listening with yourself. Already, to understand the effects of the stone on you and then succeed in detecting the moment when these effects are less, or even non-existent.

First of all, we recommend that you clean and purify your stones when you receive them. Indeed, the stones have been handled by many people, and have sometimes crossed the world to reach you, so it is absolutely essential to relieve the Tiger’s Eye of the energies accumulated from its extraction until its arrival at your home.

Next, cleaning your Tiger’s Eye stone will depend a lot on how you use it. If you wear the stone every day (which is not mandatory), clean it weekly. 

If you wear the stone for certain periods of time, at specific times (eg on big meeting days, or for an event that stresses you out), clean the stone after using it.

You can clean your Tiger’s Eye in several ways that we will detail here.

Cleaning your Tiger’s Eye with water

This is probably the easiest method to perform. To clean your Tiger’s Eye with water, fill a glass container preferably with tap water or distilled water. Let your stones soak for several hours. 

If you think your stone is heavily charged, soak it for 4 hours or more. If you clean your Tiger’s Eye regularly, the soaking may take less time.

Cleaning with water is the basic technique for cleaning your stones. The best is to have the reflex to do it after each use of your Tiger’s Eye.

Can you put a tiger’s eye in salt?

Yes. Salt allows the Tiger’s Eye stone to discharge the energies it has stored. Since salt is a good medium for recovering the energies of the stones, you can also cleanse your Tiger’s Eye by placing it on a bed of coarse sea salt for several hours.

Another technique is to clean your stones in salt water. Fill a jar or a glass with water, add salt and let your stone soak for several hours, covering the container with an opaque cloth.

Cleansing your Tiger’s Eye using incense

If you have purifying incense, you can also cleanse your Tiger’s Eye and your stones, in general, using the smoking technique. This method consists in releasing the energies of the stones thanks to the smoke of the incense. 

For this, you must place your stones so that they bathe in the smoke of incense. It also works with Armenia paper or sandalwood. This technique is one of the gentlest, it cleans crystals that are little used. 

If you regularly clean your Tiger’s Eye and you don’t have a lot of time to clean it, this technique can be very practical.
