Black hematite is a gemstone that is thought to help boost self esteem by absorbing negative energy and balancing the home as well as the body. By the absorption of negative energy, it is a gemstone of protection as well. It is also believed to aid in overcoming overindulgence, such as eating and other forms of addictive behavior. Years ago people actually wore this gem because they believed it helped them "survive" in a rather challenging world.
Hematite is an iron rich gem and the color illustrates this nicely. It has been found in ancient Egyptians tombs and even carried into battle by Babylonians. Rightfully so, it is thought to bring protection and strength to the wearer. Also believed to have a calming effect on the wearer.
