Mystical Properties: Pietersite's swirly appearance is caused by the Earth twisting and breaking the rocks under enormous temperature and pressure. The resultant gemstone is both hard and beautiful. Life, too, can be very hard, full of pressure, twists and breakages. Many of us may eventually lose our courage. Therefore, wearing Pietersite Jewelry is said to help one remain open to the experiences of life. Pietersite is said to give us the strength to continue to live a full life, despite any problems we may have already faced.

Thought to provide grounding for those who must decide the fate of others. Thought to give us the wisdom to make good judgements.

Said to help assimilate the energies of the 3rd (Navel), 5th (Throat) and 6th (Brow) Chakras.

Healing Properties: Thought to help with glandular disorders.
