Crystals I Love: Hematite

My crystal collection is small, but it is mighty! Most pieces have been gifted to me, but a very select few I went out and searched for myself. Hematite is one of the stones that I ALWAYS have to have at least one piece of.

Right now I'm rocking a Hematite bracelet that was gifted to me.

I usually like a piece that has been made into a ring that I will wear on my thumb, but this bracelet has been around for the long haul.

USES

Hematite is a dark color stone, I usually see it dark gray or black, that is used for grounding, removing and blocking negative energy. It's like the crystal Dikembe Mutombo. I like it because of the way the energy feels, and what I like to call it's "Not Today!!" powers. To me, the vibes are smooth and earthy. This crystal helps me feel more connected and rooted in the moment.

HOW IT WORKS FOR ME

I am an emotionally driven person. That makes me super sensitive to other peoples feelings, so someone else's bad mood will kill my vibe faster than I can even ask what's wrong! Once I started wearing hematite, I noticed that I was MUCH less affected by other peoples negativity/low vibrations and found that my own negative feelings would resolve themselves quickly. My only problem is I break these rings SO QUICKLY. I even tried getting a metal band with a hematite stone placed in it and I somehow broke that too! I'd like to think that it's just because the stone is on the softer side of the scale...but I'm starting to think that I work these things too hard!

I usually pick up a ring when I need one at my local spiritual shop when I'm there for one of my mom's classes. You can find a stone or piece of jewelry at your own local metaphysical shop, or online crystal store. For online shopping, I really like the Sage Goddess or the Hoodwitch.

Have a stone you love for protecting your vibe? What is it? Let me know in the comments.
