Hematite - has an excellent grounding and balancing energy...as well as being a powerful aid to stimulate the mind. They enhance memory and evoke deep thought. They have a highly protective energy and are good to help women who lack courage. The energy of this crystal will help to balance your aura and align your chakras, as it brings together the energy of the mind, body, and spirit.
