ENERGY FIELD PROTECTOR - GROUNDING - ENERGY TRANSMUTER
Black tourmaline, also known as Schorl, has been used by Shamans and spiritual healers for protection since ancient times. Today this stone is still greatly used for protection as it creates a psychic energy shield that blocks and dispels surrounding negative energies.
Black Tourmaline is "pyroelectric" and "piezoelectric", meaning it keeps an electric charge and generates electricity when heated and it can store an electrical charge, causing it to release negative ions and far infrared radiation - which is very beneficial for health.
This amazing stone is associated with protection, grounding, health, improved metabolism, self-confidence, happiness, dispelling negative energy in stressful environments, and increasing positivity.
