Galena, Raw

Galena, Raw

Galena is a metallic mineral, lead-gray in colour. Mined for its silver and lead content since 3000 BC, Egyptians used it under their eyes to prevent sun blindness and protect them against diseases carried by flies. It was used to make a green pottery glaze, called potters’ Ore.

Galena helps you tune in with the universe. It helps you focus on your goals. Your projects will be fruitful and bring you prosperity. Galena is a very grounding gemstone that can remove emotional blocks. It brings stability to life where there’s confusion, conflict, or overworked emotions. It promotes peace and harmony, encouraging a more loving, understanding attitude. Galena works on the shadow self, helping one process transformation to help with ones spiritual journey. 

The lead in Galena is toxic if inhaled or ingested from dust particles, but the mineral or rock containing the mineral can be handled safely if there is no lead dust present.
