 TIGER IRON: (sometimes called "Mugglestone") is an altered sedimentary rock composed chiefly of Tigereye sandwiched between layers of red Jasper and black Hematite. The contrasting horizontal bands makes it a very attractive stone which is often mistaken for Tigereye because of its similarities. Tiger Iron is thought to be a stone of clarity, particularly in regard to knowledge, in the belief that it helps one to see the truth below the surface. Tiger Iron is also credited for promoting creativity and inspiring all types of artistic abilities. It is used to bring strength, vitality, confidence, willpower, and balance. It is said to be an excellent stone for people wishing to bring more motivation into their lives. According to traditional folklore and contemporary spiritual healers, Tiger Iron is credited for balancing white and red blood cells, increasing natural steroid production, improving muscular structure, and promoting the healthy function of reproductive organs, liver, and nervous system.
