Hematite Palm Stone
What is Hematite?
Hematite is an iron oxide crystal with a metallic sheen, usually deep grey, black, or silvery. It’s known as a stone of grounding, strength, and mental clarity. When polished into a palm stone, it becomes smooth, easy to hold, and perfect for meditation or carrying daily.
Key Properties:

| Mental Focus | Improves memory, logic, and attention to detail. Helpful during studies or decision-making. |
| Confidence & Courage | Encourages bold action and self-assurance. |
