Hematite
Zodiac: Aries, Aquarius
Chakra: Root
Element: Earth
Planetary Association: Mars
Number Vibration: 9
Hematite is one of our top grounding stones and one of our go to stones for pain relief, including migraines* (*not to take the place of medical care*). Studies from 2018 have shown that we actually have magnetite (magnetic hematite) particles in our brains with concentrations in the cerebellum and brain stem and the belief is that our cells actually produce magnetite. This is one of the reasons Hematite works so well with headaches and migraines. This metallic looking stone can also promote personal magnetism, bring strength and courage, boosts memory and helps with concentration and focus. A protective crystal, Hematite can absorb negativity and strengthen your auric field (“energetic skin”).

Black Obsidian is a natural volcanic glass formed after eruptions. It has been collected and used for thousands of years to carve weapons and ritual pieces and is known for its protective nature. This crystal can act as a mirror and actually deflect negativity back to the person sending it making it a powerful tool for psychic protection. It can also act as a mirror to gently bring up parts of ourselves that are ready to be processed and integrated. Black Obsidian not only grounds you from your root chakra, but from the deeper Earth Star Chakra keeping you firmly planted while you explore the mystical and magical.
