TIGERWOOD (GONCALO ALVES)

Goncalo alves, also known as tigerwood, is a hard wood from the Mexico region moving into South America. A hardier, dense wood, it excels at wand smithing due to its strength.  Like most other wood species, this warm, light color of tigerwood also darkens over time, transforming into a stunning, deep reddish-brown color. The unique tiger-like striping with rich, dark color tones makes this hardwood completely stand out from the rest.

Tigerwood has a mystique to its mischievous energy that lends to the uncovering of wild mysteries and the favours of the bold spirit toward the blessings of fate.

Goncalo Alves is well used for divination purposes, and has a free flowing, positive energy.  It does carry some protective qualities as well as purifying, however overall, goncalo alves is not a harsh wood to use.

It's secondary name used from time to time, tigerwood, occasionally hints at some of its nature, being a wood that is not overly extroverted or rushed. Goncalo will be happy being patient and focused however once sprung into action, its energy is surprisingly unrestrained quality about it.

Full of positive, but not healing energy, goncalo alves seems best suited for divination.

Draws off of the element of earth. Seeks a companion of authority, yet kind and loyal. Excellent for charms, defensive spells and sealing magic.
