Meaning & history
Blue tiger's eye, also called hawk's eye, is regarded as a calming, grounding stone associated with ease and clear communication in crystal tradition, which is why it's often connected to the throat chakra. Unlike red tiger's eye, this blue coloring is entirely natural, with no heat treatment involved. A worry stone is shaped specifically for gentle thumb-tracing, a simple repetitive motion many people use to settle the mind during a stressful moment.

How to use it
Hold the stone in your palm and run your thumb along the smooth dip whenever you need a moment to pause and reset — before a difficult conversation, during a stressful commute, or simply as a quiet habit at your desk. Its compact size makes it easy to carry in a pocket or bag so it's on hand whenever you need it.
Care & cleansing
Blue tiger's eye is a durable stone at 7 on the Mohs scale, tolerant of everyday handling and a brief rinse under running water if it picks up dust or oils from your hands. Skip long soaks or extended salt-water baths, since prolonged exposure can still dull the surface over time. Dry with a soft cloth after rinsing. For energetic cleansing, a quick pass through running water, moonlight, or sound all work well for this stone.
