It is thought to be a blood fortifier, and to assist in bringing biochemistry and hormones into balance.

Tiger Eye is named for its resemblance to the flashing golden eye of a tiger. Its colours range from yellow to golden to brown arranged in fibrous bands and it can also be found in red and blue varieties, all displaying a beautiful silky chatoyancy. Historically it was used by Roman soldiers on the battlefield as a protection stone and also as an aid in business.
