Magnetite is one of the essential stones for crystal healers, because of its many uses in aligning the currents of the auric field and the multiple levels of the energy body. It is excellent for balancing polarities—male and female, physical and spiritual, left and right hemispheres of the brain and a multitude of others. Its natural magnetism occurs as a symmetrical field, which, through resonance, brings one's own energy fields into like configuration. A balanced energy field with which one can establish resonance goes a long way toward achieving health and well-being.

One can receive Magnetite's beneficial energies by simply sitting and holding one of the stones in each hand. This will affect one's entire auric field, moving it toward symmetrical balance, and the energy running through the meridian system initiates hemispheric balance in the brain. When this happens, hidden potentials begin to surface. Persons who are predominantly rational and linear in their thought will find their intuitive side awakening. Others who are intuitive but not practical may find themselves getting organized. These are merely examples, but this sort of rebalancing is available to those who work with Magnetite.
