About Pyrite

Pyrite, often nicknamed “Fool’s Gold” due to its brassy, metallic lustre, is an iron sulfide mineral with the formula FeS₂. Its name comes from the Greek word pyr, meaning “fire,” as it can produce sparks when struck against metal or stone. Pyrite commonly forms in cubes, clusters, nodules, or flat suns, and displays a dazzling, mirror-like finish that captures light brilliantly.

With a Mohs hardness of 6–6.5, Pyrite is relatively sturdy and suitable for various forms of jewellery, carvings, and decorative pieces. It naturally resists tarnish, making it a popular choice for collectors and metaphysical practitioners alike.

Major Pyrite deposits are found in Spain, Peru, Mexico, Italy, Russia, China, and the USA—with Peruvian Pyrite particularly prized for its sharp, lustrous cubic formations.

Healing with Pyrite

♥ Confidence ♥ Protection ♥ Willpower ♥ Manifestation ♥ Abundance ♥ Focus ♥ Vitality ♥ Mental Strength

Pyrite is a bold and brilliant stone of personal power, motivation, and energetic protection. Resonating with the Solar Plexus and Root Chakras, it acts as a spiritual sparkplug, igniting inner strength, drive, and mental clarity. Often referred to as the Stone of Action, Pyrite encourages you to take confident steps forward, especially in areas related to career, personal goals, or self-worth.

This crystal is a master energy shield, forming a barrier against negativity, emotional manipulation, and environmental stress. It’s particularly useful for empaths, over-givers, or those navigating toxic environments, offering a strong boundary between your energy and others’.

Emotionally, Pyrite strengthens your resolve, dissolves fear, and helps overcome patterns of self-doubt or procrastination. It’s a powerful ally when you need to get out of your own way and step boldly into your potential.

Energetically, Pyrite is a powerhouse of manifestation and aligned action. It helps you identify what you want, focus your intentions, and move towards your desires with precision and perseverance. It's especially effective for attracting wealth, success, and leadership opportunities, often used in prosperity grids and abundance rituals.

Unlike crystals that encourage passive receiving, Pyrite inspires active engagement with your goals, infusing your aura with courage, stamina, and magnetic energy. It aligns well with affirmations and visualisation work, helping you maintain belief and momentum as you bring your vision to life.

Place Pyrite in workspaces, business areas, or creative studios to enhance productivity, confidence, and prosperity. It pairs well with Citrine, Green Aventurine, and Tiger Eye for a full-spectrum manifestation toolkit.

Pyrite is believed to support energy levels, circulation, and vitality, making it a favourite for those recovering from burnout, fatigue, or low motivation. Its stimulating energy is thought to boost the will to live, particularly during periods of stagnation, emotional heaviness, or physical depletion.

Crystal healers often use Pyrite to support the digestive system, adrenal glands, and blood oxygenation, especially when stress is contributing to imbalance. It’s considered beneficial for issues related to the gut, metabolism, and immune function, and may also support healthy lung function due to its iron content and energising vibration.

Pyrite also helps protect against electromagnetic pollution, making it an excellent stone to keep near computers or electronics. Its radiant energy serves as a reminder to breathe life into your passions and trust in your own strength.
