Hematite
Written by CrystalWind.ca

The Grounding Stone
With its iron content, hematite has a strengthening influence on the physical body – especially the blood, body temperature, and circulatory system. Of all the grounding stones, hematite is perhaps the surest – very few people fail to be brought down to a steady, focused state due to its stabilizing influence on the physical body.
Energy: strong, secure, straightforward
Colours: steel gray to iron black, sometimes with red spots

Uses: Hematite is excellent for grounding, enhancing the circulation of bodily fluids, manifesting light and energy, protection, astral projection, strength, and working with the shadow self. Boosts low self-esteem. It is helpful for kidney problems, tissue regeneration, headaches, hysteria, and feelings of vulnerability.
Star Sign: Aries
Planet: Mars
Element: Fire
Chakra: Base

Tips For Hematite
Wear hematite to enhance your personal magnetism
Give hematite as a gift to those who need strength to cope with a situation
Place hematite in your desk to stimulate your mathematical abilities if you work with numbers
Carry hematite when flying to alleviate the symptoms of jet lag
Wear or carry hematite to enhance mental processes, including memory and clarity of thought
Hold hematite to ground you when you feel spaced out
Hematite helps you keep your feet on the ground

Hematite helps to absorb negative energy and calms you in times of stress or worry. Hematite is a very protective stone, and is great to carry to help you stay grounded in many situations. Hematite can boost confidence, and is also good for working with the Root Chakra.
- Protective
- Grounding
- Centering
- Cooling/Calming

The uniqueness of the protective energy of hematite is in its almost mirror-like surface/shine, which further repels negative energy.
