What are Hypersthene Crystals Good For?
A crystal's healing properties, chakra alignments, and zodiac associations explain what a crystal is "good for." Hypersthene has three healing properties that can explain what the benefits of wearing it are. These healing properties can help you determine if this stone is the right crystal to incorporate into your healing practice.
Healing Property 1: Self-Awareness
The first healing property associated with Hypersthene is self-awareness. It's easy to get caught up in your own world and think you're the only person in a room. When you get stuck in your head, you can lose your sense of self-awareness and forget that there are other people around you.
If you're someone who isn't always aware of their surroundings or struggle to read the energy in a room, this crystal might be good for you. Hypersthene is celebrate for helping increase self-awareness.
Healing Property 2: Tranquility
This crystal is also associated with tranquility. Life can get messy really fast—from overcommitting to managing all facets of your life, things can get chaotic quickly. When you're in over your head, it can be hard to find moments of peace and to truly relax.
It is believed that Hypersthene can help you truly feel calm and to find moments of tranquility when you're caught in a busy day. It's important to fully relax each and every day to recharge. Many have used this crystal to quiet their minds and experience true inner peace.
Healing Property 3: Endurance
Finally, Hypersthene is associated with endurance. When you're going on a growth journey, you might experience set backs or road blocks that make you want to just give up. It's important to not give into the urge to quit.
Many believe that this crystal can help with endurance. It can give you the extra boost you need to keep going and to overcome obstacles that get in your way. Hypersthene helps bring the grit you already possess to the surface when you need it.
What Chakra is Hypersthene Aligned With?
Hypersthene is actually aligned with two of the seven main chakras. The first is the third eye chakra which influences our intuition. When this chakra is blocked, you might lose your ability to focus and struggle to see the bigger picture. It is believed that Hypersthene can unblock the third eye chakra, leaving you feeling confident in your decision-making abilities.
This stone is also aligned with the root chakra. The root chakra influences our physical identity. When blocked, you might feel unsure of who you are and generally feel unstable. It is believed that Hypersthene can unblock this chakra, making you confident in who you are.
What Zodiac Sign Do Hypersthene Crystals Help?
The healing properties of a crystal can help determine which zodiac signs might benefit more from wearing that crystal. The most obvious crystal that will benefit any sign is their birthstone. However, there are other crystals that can influence your sign beyond your birthstone.
For Hypersthene, there are two zodiac signs that might benefit from wearing the stone. The first sign is Aries. This sign tends to act on impulse and can sometimes lack patience because they want to get things done immediately. Hypersthene can help them be more aware of moments when they should take a step back and think through their decisions.
The second sign is Leo. Leos are natural born leaders but sometimes struggle to give up control to other people. This crystal can help a Leo recognize when they need to take a step back and let someone else be in charge.
How to Cleanse Hypersthene Crystals?

Crystals use energy from the person wearing them and their surrounding environments during any healing practice. They are meant to exude positive energy and absorb negative energy for protection.
Before you begin wearing your Hypersthene crystal jewelry, you'll want to make sure you cleanse it of any negative energy it might have already absorbed. We can't guarantee that your crystal didn't come into contact with negative energy from the time it leaves our warehouse to show up in your mailbox.
Thankfully, there are many different methods you can use for cleansing Hypersthene:
- Charge it with moonlight. The moon has a lot of powerful energy that crystals respond positively to. For Hypersthene, you can use the power of the moon to charge it with positive energy. Leave your crystal element in a spot in your home that has access to moonlight for the entire night. The best time to do this is during a full moon when its energy is incredibly powerful.
- Use a sage or Palo Santo smudge. Many crystal healers use herbs to absorb negative energy from their gemstones. You can use either a sage or Palo Santo smudge to get rid of negative energy from Hypersthene. Take the smudge and rub it on the crystal a few times to really give it time to absorb the negativity.
- Charge it with Selenite. Selenite is a crystal that is used for absorbing negative energy. It can be used to charge other crystals with positive energy. Leave your crystal on a Selenite plate for 24-hour to cleanse it of negative energy. We have three different Selenite charging plates you can buy if you don't already have one:
| Tree of Life Charging Plate | Zodiac Charging Plate | Chakra Charging Plate |

How Do You Use Hypersthene Crystal Jewelry for Healing?
Once you've cleansed your crystal, you're ready to begin your healing practice. The first step of crystal healing, regardless of the crystal you're using, is to rid your mind of any doubts you might be harboring about the full potential of your practice. If you're skeptical of crystal healing, you might hinder the full potential of your practice.
Once you've worked through your hesitancies, you can move onto the intention-setting process. Intentions are essentially the outcome you're hoping to achieve with your practice. They should be specific and related to the healing properties we listed above. For Hypersthene, you might consider setting an intention to be more aware when you need to take a step back and let others take control of a situation.
After deciding what the intention of your practice is, hold your Hypersthene crystal in your hands and speak your intention into it. Repeat your intention a few times and write it down somewhere where you can easily find it. When you wear your Hypersthene crystal jewelry, remember your intention and make decisions that align with it.
As time passes, you might achieve what you set out to with your healing practice, or decide that your intention is no longer relevant to your life. That's completely normal! To set a new intention, use one of the cleansing methods above and repeat the intention-setting process.
