What is a pyrite bracelet worn for?
A pyrite bracelet is traditionally worn for wealth, willpower and the drive to act on a plan. Pyrite belongs to the solar plexus chakra and is linked with Leo. It is a favourite with people who run their own business, and it is paired with citrine in The Alchemist for a gold-toned abundance piece. Keep it dry, because moisture slowly dulls and tarnishes pyrite.

What is pyrite?
Pyrite is iron sulfide, nicknamed fool's gold for its brassy metallic shine. In the rock it often grows as near-perfect cubes. It measures 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs hardness scale and is commonly found in Peru, Spain and China. Every Crystal Basket bead is natural and undyed, so colour and pattern vary from bead to bead.
Which wrist do you wear pyrite on?
Wear pyrite on the left wrist when you wear it for abundance, the receiving side. If you wear it for drive and action, some people prefer the right.
How do you cleanse a pyrite bracelet?
Cleanse pyrite when it arrives and about once a month: overnight in moonlight, on a selenite plate for a few hours, or in palo santo, sage or oud smoke. Pyrite is iron sulfide and tarnishes when wet, so keep it dry. It is sun safe, so a short spell on a bright windowsill does no harm. Full cleanse and care guide.
What does pyrite pair well with?
Pyrite is often worn beside citrine, tiger's eye and green aventurine. Every bracelet is 8 mm, so any of them stack evenly on the same wrist.
