Details
Hematite is an iron oxide mineral with a distinctive metallic sheen and surprising weight for its size. In Feng Shui, it is classified as a Metal-and-Water element stone due to its iron composition and reflective surface. It is placed in the North (Career) area for stability, or near the front door for grounding incoming energy. Its high iron content gives it a literally weighty presence — practitioners use it in spaces that feel 'scattered' or overstimulated, such as children's playrooms, busy offices, or homes near highways.
