Meditation Focus:

Find a quiet and comfortable space to sit. This can be inside or outside, on a chair or the floor – wherever you feel more comfortable.
Hold a piece of Pyrite in your hands.
Close your eyes and take slow, deep breaths.
Visualize the golden energy of Pyrite surrounding you.
Focus on the grounding and protective properties of Pyrite during your meditation. If you’re wanting to do a guided meditation, have a search on YouTube for meditations for (what your intention is) or even solar plexus meditations. If meditation isn’t your thing, just sit peacefully following the steps above, and just count your breaths.

Desk or Workspace Enhancement:

Place a small Pyrite cluster on your desk or workspace.
This can help enhance mental clarity and concentration, and its energy may also promote productivity and abundance.

Confidence Boosting Pocket Stone:

Carry a small, polished Pyrite stone in your pocket or purse.
Whenever you need a confidence boost, hold the Pyrite in your left hand and take a moment to connect with its empowering energy.

Manifestation Ritual:

Sit in a quiet space with your Pyrite and a notebook.
Write down your goals and desires, being as detailed as you can be.
Hold the Pyrite in your hands and visualize your goals coming to fruition.
Keep the Pyrite and the list together as a reminder of your intentions.
This is perfect to do on the day of a new moon, when intention-setting vibes are more potent.

Energy Shield Before Socializing:

Before entering a social situation, hold a Pyrite in your hands.
Visualize a protective shield of golden light surrounding you.
Carry the Pyrite with you as a symbol of energetic protection.

Enhance Creativity:

Place a Pyrite near your creative workspace.
Its energy may help boost creativity and innovation.
Use it as a touchstone when seeking inspiration.

Prosperity Altar:

Create a small altar dedicated to prosperity and abundance.
Place a Pyrite specimen at the centre of the altar.
Surround it with symbols or items that represent your financial and personal goals.
Regularly spend a few moments in front of the altar, focusing on your aspirations and the energy of Pyrite as a magnet for prosperity.

How to care for your Pyrite:

Caring for Pyrite is essential to maintain its energetic properties and physical appearance.

Firstly, avoid exposing Pyrite to water or moisture, as it can cause the crystal to deteriorate. Instead, cleanse Pyrite by placing it in sunlight or moonlight for a few hours, allowing it to absorb the revitalizing energy. Sunlight can affect the appearance of some crystals, so only use this option for cleansing for short periods.

Regularly dust or wipe the surface of Pyrite with a soft cloth to remove any accumulated debris.

By following these care instructions, you can ensure that your Pyrite remains vibrant and effective in providing its grounding and protective energies.

So whether it’s through meditation, intention setting, or wearing it as jewellery, let Pyrite be your companion on the journey to abundance, confidence, and creativity. Now, take a moment to explore these simple yet transformative practices and infuse your life with the warmth and brilliance of Pyrite’s golden embrace.
