Out of This World
Hematite, whose name is derived from the Greek word for blood, is a dark, rich stone that can appear deep red when thinly sliced or powdered. Scientists have found the mineral signature of hematite on the planet Mars and speculate that studying its formation pattern could determine if large deposits of water, a necessary building block for life, was ever present on the red planet. The famous blueberry spherules that set off a firestorm of speculation about the possibility of life on Mars were formed largely by hematite.
Tall, Dark, And Rich Stone
Hematite has had a long history of use here on planet Earth as well. It was utilized for its red chalky quality by some of the earliest recorded writers in human history. Its use as an artist tool is an ancient one, in fact the powdery residue of hematite was first used as a writing chalk nearly 165,000 years ago in what we today call South Africa. In more recent history, hematite was actively mined for its red chalky attributes around 7,00 years ago in modern day Poland and Hungary.
Some Native American traditions indicate that when hematite powder was used to make war paint it rendered the wearer invincible in battle. These fascinating histories and traditions make hematite beads not only a beautiful addition to your art or jewelry project but a culturally rich and elegantly interesting one as well.
Multiple Uses
Hematite beads have some purported metaphysical qualities, as well. The stone is thought to improve circulation of oxygen in the blood and therefore has been used to cool the body and alleviate fever and pain from cramping. It has been utilized to relieve anxiety and bring calmness due to its grounding qualities. For this reason, hematite is highly useful at bringing balance and creating a positive foundation.
What’s more, hematite is used to calm the senses and increase focus, concentration, and mental acuity. For this reason it is also used to bring about sharp mental organization and clarity. Considered to be a useful guide for intense logical exercises of thought, the stone can be of service for those involved in the sciences, especially mathematics.
