Hematite has been used by ancient civilizations for thousands of years for strength, protection, and spiritual grounding. Its red streak was associated with life force and power.

Hematite is an iron oxide mineral that forms in sedimentary and hydrothermal environments. Though shiny and metallic on the outside, it reveals a red-brown streak when powdered.

Ancient Egyptians used it for protection and grounding in the afterlife., Roman soldiers wore Hematite for strength in battle., and Native American tribes ground it into war paint and healing salves.

With Hematite, I feel strong, steady, and protected. I release scattered thoughts and embrace clarity and power. I am deeply grounded in who I am.
