Magical Uses: Popularly known as Fool's Gold, Pyrite is often found associated with real Gold. It's sunny golden color associates it with the sun, and with fortification and strengthening of the mind. The name comes from the Greek word meaning "a stone which strikes fire".
Iron Pyrite makes a wonderful energy shield, blocking out negativity from various sources. Because of the yellowish shimmer and shining nature of this 'stone' it is used to draw wealth and money.

Pyrite is also considered to bring money and luck. A flat, shimmering surface of Pyrite can be used as a magic mirror to awaken psychic impulses. Carried, it is a luck bringer. In healing, use this stone to overcome lethargy and fatigue. It increases the oxygen supply to the blood and strengthens the circulatory system. It is beneficial for the lungs, alleviating bronchitis and asthma.
