Metaphysical Properties, Meaning, and Uses of Limonite
Limonite is a supreme stone for grounding, centering, stabilizing chaotic energies, and creating an aura of protection. It is an excellent support stone, yielding a wealth of strength and persistence, as well as dissolving ambient negativity. Limonite Pseudomorphs are considered stones to promote heightened intuition, clarity of psychic gifts, and protection from malicious energies and entities. Limonite Pseudomorphs often present an “echo” of the original stone’s energy, retaining and strengthening the gifts of the original Pyrite, Hematite, Magnetite, etc that they have mineralogically replaced.
Limonite may feature a wide range of coloration, from iron-black to yellow-brown, as it is a mix of iron-oxide minerals which may include: Goethite, Jarosite, Akageneite, Lepidocrocite, Hematite, Magnetite, Pyrite, Maghemite, Hisingerite, Pitticite, and others. Each Limonite is, therefore, entirely unique!
In its pseudomorph form, it arises when hydration or oxidation causes a chemical alteration of other minerals. These natural chemical shifts cause the Limonite to replace the original mineral, leaving behind the shape of the original while it has been mineralogically replaced. This process is often viewed as a kind of decomposition, and has led to Limonite sometimes being referred to as Bog Iron or Bog Ore. Brown Limonite is sometimes called Brown Hematite or Brown Iron.
