This is a stone called hematite. It has been called the "stone for the mind" because it can help one to achieve better mental clarity. It can been used to dispel heat from a fever when applied to the forehead. Hematite balances the yin-yang (feminine/masculine) energy in the body, and balances the meridians within the energy body. It is widely acknowledged as a grounding stone, which means that its energy is more dense, and therefore tends to "root" or "ground" its surroundings (including you!). When you feel as though you are spiraling, unbalanced, or anxious, hematite can aid you in balancing your physical and energetic (spiritual) bodies.
A grounding meditation: Stand in place while holding or wearing hematite. Imagine your legs growing roots to the center of the earth as you breathe slowly. Have someone push your shoulders- the more "rooted" you are, the harder it will be to move you.
