Why was Hematite called ‘blood stone’? Because, when it is found naturally, the iron content is covered in rust which makes it look red.
In Ancient Rome, Hematite was a popular stone for decorative purposes. Jewelry, weapons, and even armor decorated with Hematite were traded widely.
The dark color was thought to be especially intimidating or protective.
But aside from the literal meaning or translation, there also are spiritual meanings and wisdom to tap into. Hematite’s spiritual meaning is to bring balance to both the etheric body and the physical body. And due to its magnetic nature and our ying-yang energies, it’s nature is to bring us back to equilibrium.
