Jet
Metaphysical Properties- Jet is one of those stones that is not used for healing work as much as it should be. Jet is a very black organic mineral which is highly protective. It was used in times of antiquity for not only protection against the evil eye, but also in times of mourning. You see Jet quite often in antique jewelry. I just love Jet and always have a piece of it in my purse, I feel it is good for protection against others negativity. However, I also carry it with me to use as a worry stone. I find by rubbing my fingers across Jet that the smooth surface promotes a calmness within, especially when I have anxiety. Some say it is useful for headaches, however, I have not experienced this. Much Jet that you see is actually plastic or glass, so be very careful when purchasing, make sure you buy from a dependable source.
