Every piece in this run reads the same, the same tone, the same reflectivity, the same clean edge to the hollow, with variation limited to minor surface detail rather than colour or pattern. The weight is the notable thing in the hand, well beyond what a stone of this size would normally carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHematite is used for grounding and for pulling scattered attention back to one place, and the sheer density is central to how it functions as a carry piece. It is commonly held at the end of a session to return to the body, kept in a pocket through a long day, or set on a desk as something to close a hand around between tasks. Its uniformity is a genuine advantage for anyone who wants a matched pair or a consistent set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPrimary Focus: Protection \u0026amp; Grounding\u003cbr\u003e\nSecondary Focus: Clarity \u0026amp; Focus\u003cbr\u003e\nChakra Association: Root\u003cbr\u003e\nZodiac Sign: Aries, Scorpio\u003cbr\u003e\nChinese Zodiac: Rat, Tiger\u003cbr\u003e\nRuling Planet: Mars\u003cbr\u003e\nElements: Earth, Fire\u003cbr\u003e\nMohs Hardness: 5.5-6.5\u003cbr\u003e\nStone Family: Oxide\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Hematite\u003cbr\u003e\nForm: Worry Stone\u003cbr\u003e\nFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Size: 41-44 mm (1.6-1.7 inches)\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Weight: 36-38 g\u003cbr\u003e\nListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHematite is iron oxide, Fe2O3, trigonal, Mohs 5.5 to 6.5, and takes its name from the Greek haema for blood, after the red-brown streak it leaves on an unglazed surface rather than the metallic grey of its polished face. The material is non-magnetic in its natural state, which distinguishes it from the magnetic product sold as Hematine or as Magnetite, a man-made sintered material forming a separate category that should not be confused with it. Colour and finish on these pieces are consistent across the batch rather than naturally variable, with each stone individual only in minor surface detail. Hematite is among the oldest minerals in human use: the red ochre found at archaeological sites over 100,000 years old is hematite, the ancient Egyptians polished it into mirrors, and it remains the principal ore of iron. Commercial material is sourced from Brazil, Australia, England, the USA and China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity. Natural variations in colour, structure, inclusions, and surface features are inherent to geological materials and contribute to the individuality of each piece. Any known treatments, enhancements, stabilization, or man-made characteristics are clearly disclosed within the product information where applicable. Every piece is inspected and photographed to reflect its true character; however, lighting conditions, screen settings, and natural variation may cause slight differences in appearance.
