It is said the magnetic properties of hematite have healing properties. Hematite stimulates iron absorption in the small intestine, which in turn improves oxygen supply to the body.

The name comes from the Greek word for blood. It has been used as an amulet against bleeding, and so is known as the "blood stone". When arranged like the petals of a flower, it is referred to as the "iron rose".

Native American folklore states that war paint made from hematite will make one invincible in battle. People in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries wore hematite jewelry during mourning.

Hematite is used to improve relationships. If you need your personal relationship to be better, carry a hematite with you always. In jewelry it is best in a ring worn on the left hand.

Hematite jewelry is also said to improve intuition.
