Pyrite

Pyrite, commonly known as "fool's gold," is an iron sulfide mineral with a metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue that often forms in cubic or pyritohedral crystals. It occurs in a variety of geological formations, from sedimentary rock layers to hydrothermal veins. Pyrite is often found alongside gold and other sulfide minerals, and it can serve as an indicator of gold-bearing deposits.

Energetically, Pyrite is known as a stone of protection and abundance. It is believed to shield against negative energies, boost confidence, and enhance mental clarity. Many also use Pyrite to attract prosperity and stimulate action toward achieving goals, making it a favorite in manifestation practices.
