Hematite is one of the most widespread minerals. Most of its production comes from Brazil. Although it ranges from black to silvery gray, hematite is considered a red stone. Hematite is an iron oxide. It’s also called the “blood stone” because it turns the cooling water red when it’s cut.

It was already used in prehistoric times. Cave paintings were made using ground hematite.

Because of its high iron content, hematite was long used by doctors to treat certain blood disorders. However, scientists and doctors have not been able to confirm that hematite can heal.

In Ayurvedic medicine, hematite is traditionally used in cases of anemia and menorrhagia.

Albert the Great, a renowned 13th-century scholar, wrote that hematite had strong astringent power and could treat anemia and certain eye diseases.

Hematite is a stone of grounding, of connection to reality. It invites you to listen to yourself and to others. It helps build self-confidence and overcome problems. It’s the go-to stone for shy people.

In crystal healing, hematite is considered a revitalizing and anti-stress stone. Hematite is associated with jobs that require strong listening skills: social work, medical professions, lawyers.

Hematite is associated with the Root Chakra. Spiritually, hematite is a very Yang stone. It rebalances energy when it’s dominated by too much Yin energy. It dispels negative energies to restore peace and harmony in the body.

Cleansing:

Hematite can be cleansed by soaking it in salt water for a few minutes. However, to preserve bracelet elastic/jewelry settings, we recommend smudging instead with a palo santo stick or white sage. Light the palo santo or sage and pass your jewelry over the smoke. Don’t forget to air out the room well after smudging.

Recharging:

Hematite can be recharged by placing it in the sun.

It can also be placed in a quartz geode, on a selenite plate or an amethyst cluster.
