Hematite has long been known by man, in fact it was one of the first types of chalk in use over 163,000 years ago! Highly favored by the babylonian culture and mentioned in Pliny’s ‘ Naturalis Historia’ as a talisman to procure favor in judgements and petitions. Hematite also has been associated with Mar’s, the greek god of war, the ground powder would be used as coloring for war paints as well as textiles and pottery. Historically hematite has been used to treat many illnesses related to the blood, ‘hema’ means blood in latin and this stone has often times been confused with an agate that is named bloodstone through out history. However they are two very different stones.
Interestingly enough, this stone was even found on the planet mars, leading scientists to believe that a water source exists there today.
Hematite is also a stone used extensively today for blocking negative energy, this stone is said to absorb negative energy, and is so masterful at absorbing negative vibes - it will often shatter when the negativity has reached a critical level and Although rarely found in nature, hematite can sometimes have a slight magnetic charge. This magnetic charge is very minimal, and what is sold as magnetic hematite, isn’t really hematite.
Hematite is a stone that not only supports the belief that energy is energy, it helps you to understand what to do with that knowledge. As you block negativity, your focus must be on that negativity, as you focus on that negativity, you attract more, it is the law of the universe- you get what you focus on. Hematite guides you through your own awareness of energy on a whole new level, showing you how energy is never really outside of you, the perception that you actually control, is what shapes the energy in your reality.
