The Hematite crystal meaning is linked to its connection to the root chakra, the center of security and survival. By creating a strong sense of energetic stability, this crystal works to align, clear and balance your root chakra so you feel centered and secure.
Why was Hematite called ‘blood stone’? Because, when it is found naturally, the iron content is covered in rust which makes it look red.
