A stone of earth and fire (“pyr” is Greek for fire) that enhances the third chakra (the chakra of personal power). It enhances our will power, helping us overcome bad habits, establish new health, positive attitudes, release fear and anxiety that hold us back, and take on leadership.

It increases physical stamina, performance, and vitality, giving us an energy boost to accomplish our goals and tasks. If you can’t take a nap, hold a piece of pyrite to revitalize.

It is connected to male sexuality: it stimulates male sexual energies and the expression and appreciation of male eroticism, helps create confidence in one’s masculinity, and helps with male infertility and impotence.
