the physical, etheric, and emotional levels. It can help to keep out the negative
vibrations of poUutants at the physical level, due to an energy field which it creates
within the aura. It is a unique protector and is an excellent stone to keep in ones
possession when performing dangerous work; it helps to keep-away all forms of
negative vibrations and can work to aUay physical dangerThe energy of pyrite can inspire the universal energies to activate the nourishing
energies of the body, assisting one in the attainment of the ultimate state of physical
perfection. It allows one to recognize the purity of the universe and to understand

[Peggy Jentoft]

I have quite a bit of pyrite now in different forms, cubes, tumbled stones nodules and even a stem besides being a great protective stone, a healing stone and a symbol of wealth and abundance in many traditions. Pyrite cleanses and strengthens, calms digestion, repels negative energy, protective of physical, etheric and emotional wellness, can be carried for protection while doing dangerous work, helps develop love, friendship, strengthens bones, helps the immune system against infectious disease and for treating physical burnout. It is recommended that a piece is placed on the solar plexus to achieve maximum energizing results. Pyrite suns/flowers are a very good shape to do this with. Clears the mind making way for clear focus.
Pyrites carry abundance with them. The golden color represents manifested abundance and prosperity, making magic happen,and anchoring intention fully . Pyrite supports our intentions to manifest prosperity in our lives
pyrite cubic crystals brings an added potency to their capacity to manifest abundance. The geometry of
the cube is related to the Earth, to grounding and stabilizing and manifesting.

My experience also supports the listening of Awo Osundiya Fabeku Fatunmise that Pyrite supports the Throat Chakra helping to open and activate the throat center. Though chakra/color based models generally only assign blue
colored stone spirits to this energy center, pyrite is one of the best activators of the throat center I have worked with. pyrite’s energy fortifies the throat center and capacity for expression. when pyrite is placed or worn on or around the throat it brings about greater confidence in the ability to express oneself

They offer exceptional support for people who have difficulty expressing themselves and those who are withdrawn or suffer from poor self-esteem related to self-expression. People who have speech impediments are helped by work with pyrite. It is also a great stone for those who have ADD/ADHD and anyone who has difficulty with expression .This is also a great stone for the artist bringing both the golden energy of creativity with the ability to bring the creative impulse into reality and the grounding focus needed to succeed in both the artistic and mundane financial way.
In spiritual work Pyrite is used for pregnant women and the newborn both for successful pregnancy and child birth and for the integration of the spirit of the newborn into the body and the fortification of the family ties.
Fabeku also finds that "Crystalline Pyrite also activates the crown center powerfully and further activates a sacred geometric “halo” just above this energy center. This halo is a gateway of communion and communication with the divine – with our expanded spiritual essence, with the multidimensional sacredness that is Now and with the Mystery itself. It is also through this halo that the embodiment of one’s higher self is facilitated."
It can also help one with conscious channeling and with balancing issues of ego a good stone for those with either low self esteem or those with overlarge egos.
One of my favorite Pyrite pieces are the tumbled stones they are quite unusual the smooth surface is broken by places where the crystal formation shows through and this along with the shiny semi mirror finish gives them an aspect of revealing the hidden.
They also help facilitate communication with some spirit guides and spirits of loved ones who have crossed into light particularly healers and protector spirits . This is also a stone of encouragement and strength for those who are going into danger and for warriors etc.

I like to remember that pyrite is a good stone to use to help to protect one from foolish thinking and from foolish behavior - as well as keeping fools away.
