Properties :  The Egyptians considered Magnetite to be a sacred stone. They thought that it was offered to them by the God Horus and that it allowed them to regulate the movements of the Universe.

More recently, in 1771, Doctor Mesmer, a precursor of Magnetotherapy, used the magnetic virtues of this stone to treat certain illnesses.

Magnetite is therefore also known as the Magnet Stone. It is very powerful, especially when polarized.
