According to legend, the Hematite crystal was used as a talisman for warriors in 8th Century England because it was believed to preserve the blood or life essence of a fallen soldier wounded in battle.
While your problems may not be as life threatening as an invasion of Viking marauders, a Hematite crystal is a powerful ally in keeping you grounded (no more being distracted by that picture of Travis Fimmel in your desk drawer) and connected to the Earth’s plane.
By the simple act of bringing, you are back down to earth, Hematite gives you the clarity and focus you need to be boss at whatever it is you do. No matter how small your progress, each step you take with your eye firmly on the prize is one step closer to world domination… or at least achieving one of your slightly more realistic goals.

Shape significance
Using crystals for their spiritual and healing properties can be fun and fascinating and is a killer way to connect with the earth’s energy. But, when you really start digging into the magickal world of sparkly stones, it can start getting really overwhelming.
Not only do crystals come in every colour of the rainbow and serve different intended purposes, they are also found in many different shape formations. Newbies to the crystal world may think the way a stone is cut or shaped is purely aesthetic, but there’s a little more to a crystal’s shape than meets the eye. Just as the colours of the stones convey unique meanings, crystal shapes also matter. And while experts say that the structure of a crystal doesn’t change the type of energy it emits, the shape DOES affect the way you receive said energy.
