Hi all,
I figured we should start looking at stones..one of my favorites is Hematite. I love the look but had no clue how to use it.
According to the book:
Folk Name: Volcano Spit
Energy: Projective
Planet: Saturn
Element: Fire
Powers: Healing, grounding and divination.
"To ancients, hematite was what waht we now know as bloodstone, so , so virtually al magical information relating to "hematite in old books refers to bloodstone. This hematite, though, when worked on a lapidary wheel, "Bleeds" and produces stains that look much like blood or so I'm told .
Magical Use:
Hematite is said to be powerful in drawing illness from the body. As with all stones, it is held in the hands while visualizing, then placed on the skin directly over the afflicted area. A necklase of samll sstones can also be worn for healing.
Hematite is worn for grounding and stabilizing purposes, and to foucs the attention on the physical plane.
A scrying: In a darkened room, light a red candle. Settle before it and hold a large piece of hematite so that the candles flame is reflected on it. Gaze at the reflection and visualize a question. The answer will come to you."
WoW..maybe I should read this book cover to cover..lol when...
The quote is from the book I mentioned when I said I wanted to start the group "Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Crystals, Gem, and Metal magic" by Scott cunningham.
So what is your feeling on Hemetite and how would or do you use it.
