PYRITE – Stone of Power and Protection
The word Pyrite has roots in the Greek word for “fire”. It’s an appropriate reference given its golden, sparkling brightness. Throughout the ages, many have mistaken Pyrite for true gold, resulting in it being dubbed “Fool’s Gold”.
Pyrite’s golden color and energy make it an excellent stone for the Solar Plexus, the seat of personal power. Pyrite helps to strengthen and enhance personal power by cultivating inner strength and self-confidence. It inspires and motivates us to focus on what matters as we pursue our dreams. Pyrite also keeps us grounded while we strive for our aspirations.
In our fast-paced world, we are frequently bombarded with external stressors and negativity. Look no further than Pyrite to shield against negative energy.
If you’re ever down on your luck, Pyrite is your stone of choice as it is considered a “good luck” stone.*
Shungite comes from Shunga, a village in Karelia, Russia. It is a rare black stone made of up to 99 percent carbon.
This crystal is absorbent—it is used to pull out toxins and disease from the body and then eliminates them safely. Shungite has the capacity to purify water and to decrease the effects of electromagnetic radiation of computers, cell phones, TV’s and microwaves.
Shungite has been referred to as a "miracle stone" because of its curative properties. It has been used for hair loss, muscle aches and pains, and inflammation. It is also prized for its fullerenes, which are tiny molecules consisting of carbon atoms which have strong anti-bacterial and antioxidant properties. The discovery of fullerenes was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1998.
