All About Hematite

Hematite

for grounding and balance

Hematite is a highly protective crystal that is great for grounding while warding off negative energies and transforming them into positive vibes. Calming in times of stress or worry, it can help balance inner harmonies and help one refocus. Often used to protect against geopathic stress and electromagnetic smog, and is said to be a great detoxifyer as well.

Hematite is known for its metallic luster and high iron content. It absorbs negative energy, shields the aura, and helps you stay rooted in the present moment. Ideal for empaths and energy workers, Hematite supports courage, confidence, and a sense of stability. It’s also linked to focus, willpower, and blood health, making it a popular choice for balancing the body, mind, and emotions.
