Pyrite

Also called “Fools’ Gold”, Pyrite has been used since pre-history. Its’ name from Greek “pyr”, meaning fire, was believed to stem from its’ ability to emit sparks if hit by an iron tool. Used in flint locks for the first firearms, later being replaced by a harder quartz variety flint. Pyrite has a brass-yellow colour and metallic lustre similar to gold. Pyrite often occurs in well-formed crystals in the shape of cubes, octahedrons (8 faces/sides), or pyritohedrons (pentagons), which often have striated faces (ridges, furrows or linear marks), and occasionally as Pyrite Suns (round and flat), or aggregates (spheres).

Pyrites is a great energy shield, blocks out negative energy and prevents leaks from the energy bodies; very useful in energy works. A powerful protection gemstone, excellent for removing low vibrating energies from all the auric layers. Pyrite shields the body from environmental pollutions. Works on the Sacral and Solar Plexus Chakras, promotes “joy de vivre”, strength and willpower. Promotes physical well being and excellent for memory and recall. 

Pyrite is also excellent for manifesting wealth and prosperity. Use in the SouthEast corner of your home or office or place of business. Placing pyrite in the cash register or in one’s wallet is also beneficial for attracting money. 

Important note: Pyrite is poisonous if ingested, for gem water use the indirect method.
