Sphalerite is said to be a stone that protects us by helping us to protect ourselves. Its grounding properties keep us from being seduced by lofty promises and from deceiving ourselves; it helps us to avoid getting caught up in what is unrealistic or even impossible. When we are present and with a clear mind, we can see whatis truly most valuable in our lives, and work to secure and protect these gifts. Sphalerite is strongly connected to the energies of the earth and can help balance mental or spiritual overstimulation.
