Chakra: Root (1st)

Grounding, manifestation, materialization of the spiritual

Hematite is the most effective of all stones for grounding oneself in the body and in the physical world. It can neutralize the feeling of being in confusion, and helps us carry very high frequency energies while remaining connected to the earth and our bodies. Hematite embraces both the feminine and masculine polarities, creating a balanced energy that contains opposites within its whole. It can help us see the bright side of any painful situation and gives us strength and courage to move forward through adversity.
