Tiger Iron Meaning and Metaphysical Properties
Tiger Iron is the stone of warriors and leadership, encouraging us to work through hardships with courage, fortitude, a willingness to accept change. Tiger Iron is thought of as a protective stone as well, due to the content of Tigers Eye and Hematite-- both gemstones associated with deflecting negative influences, protection from evil eyes, and shielding against malicious energies. As a gemstone of the Lower Chakras (Root Chakra, Sacral Chakra, and Solar Plexus Chakra) Tiger Iron is used to promote self reliance, determination, confidence, creative problem solving, and decisive action. The meaning of Tiger Iron is forward momentum, and that means seeking opportunities to improve ourselves, better our circumstances, and achieve success even when there are obstacles to work through on the way there. Tiger Iron is very much a solution oriented gemstone that promotes personal strength and viewing difficulties as challenges to excel at.

What is Tiger Iron? Is it the Same as Mugglestone?
Tiger Iron is the trade name commonly applied to specimens exhibiting intergrowth of Hematite with various colors of Jasper, and Tigers Eye. Tiger Iron may also contain Martite and Chert, depending on the stone. When Tigers Eye, Brown Jasper, and Hematite are the most prominent, the specimen is likely to be referred to as Tiger Iron. However, specimens with higher color variety due to the presence of Red Jasper or Yellow Jasper are more likely to be called Mugglestone. Although some see the word Mugglestone and attribute it to the Harry Potter universe, the name actually has nothing to do with the literary works of You-Know-Who. Rather, Mugglestone Tiger Iron specimens are thought to derive their name from the Mugglestein Priska District of South Africa where colorful Tiger Iron is prevalent. Although Mugglestone may have been used only for pieces originating from that location in the past, it has now become synonymous with any piece of Tiger Iron containing Red Jasper in addition to the traditional Tiger Eye and Hematite. At this time, the terms Tiger Iron and Mugglestone are virtually interchangeable, although Tiger Iron is more often used to denote pieces that are primarily caramel Brown Jasper (aka Tiger Jasper) and/or Tiger Eye with the addition of Hematite.

What is a Palm Stone? What is a Worry Stone?
Semi-flat round or ovular stones have been used as meditation tools and fidget toys across many cultures. Sometimes called palm stones, worry stones, fidget stones, or meditation stones, these gems are easy to hold and typically quite pleasant to rub with the thumb. Some feature a flat surface, while others are convex, and still others exhibit a thumbprint divot. The shape and style of crystal palm stones can vary widely, but the most important quality is that they should be comfortable to hold in the hand. Used as a method for grounding and stress relief, crystal palm stones can help us to release anxiety and focus on the present moment by channeling chaotic or negative energies elsewhere. The type of crystal or gemstone your worry stone is made of can also help remind you of your metaphysical intent, and assist you in connecting with the aspects of yourself most associated with that gem. By carrying your crystal palm stone with you in a pocket or pouch, you will always have a meditation tool available to you, even during times when full meditation is not possible.
