Hematite is particularly effective at grounding and protecting.  It harmonizes mind, body, and spirit.  Used during out-of-body journeying, it protects the soul and grounds it back into the body.  This stone has a strong yang element and balances negativity and prevents negative energies from entering the aura, restoring peace and harmony to the body.

The word Merkaba is made up of three smaller words — Mer, Ka, and Ba, which came from ancient Egyptian texts.

"Mer" refers to light. It is seen as a two counter-rotating fields of light spinning in the same space.

"Ka" refers to the individual spirit’s interpretation of its particular reality.

"Ba" is usually defined as the body or physical reality.

So, Merkaba is a counter-rotating field of light that affects spirit and body simultaneously. It is a vehicle that can take spirit and body from one world, or dimension into another. Merkaba means "chariot" in Hebrew.

Meditation and accomplishment of a Merkaba field of energy about your body will make your thoughts and feelings become thousands of times more powerful.
