Historical and Cultural Use:
Black Tourmaline, known as Schorl, has been used throughout history for its protective qualities. Ancient magicians relied upon black tourmalines to protect them from earth demons as they cast their spells. Today, it is still revered as a premier talisman of protection, a psychic shield deflecting and dispelling negative energies, entities, or destructive forces. It was also traditionally used to point to the culprit or cause in times of trouble and indicate a good direction in which to move.
Geological Properties:
Black tourmaline is the most common member of the tourmaline family. It is distinguished by its rich, deep black colour that can sometimes appear almost opaque or translucent when cut thinly. This colouration is primarily due to the presence of iron. Black tourmaline can form in various habits, including long, slender to thick prismatic and columnar crystals that are often striated along their length.
Spiritual and Emotional Significance:
Black tourmaline is highly valued in the metaphysical world for its grounding, protective, and cleansing properties. It is believed to protect against EMF pollution, negative thoughts, and psychic attacks, making it an excellent stone for anyone working or living in challenging places. This stone encourages optimism, regardless of the circumstances, and enhances self-confidence, diminishing fear. It's often used in meditation to connect with the Root Chakra, promoting a sense of power and security.
Collectibility and Use:
Due to its versatility and powerful protective properties, black tourmaline is highly sought after by both collectors and those interested in crystal healing. It is used in various forms, including jewellery, amulets, and in raw or polished pieces placed in living spaces to cleanse and protect an area. It's also a popular choice for creating crystal grids focused on protection and grounding.
Care and Maintenance:
Black tourmaline is relatively hard and durable but should be handled with care to avoid chipping. Clean it with lukewarm soapy water and a soft brush. Although it is stable under most environmental conditions, it's wise to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which might fade its color over time. Energetically, it can be cleansed with water, smudging, or by placing it on a piece of selenite.
