Metaphysical Healing Properties Of Halite
Metaphysical Healing Properties Of Halite, Pink Halite is a type of Halite that had its color tainted from bacteria of various algae species. Halite is known as the “natural form of salt” and is a very common mineral found near oceans and salt lakes. This stone can be found in the form of masses and a tubular crystal structure. The specimen pictured below is from a dried up salt lake in San Bernardino, California. Be careful to avoid getting pieces of Pink Halite wet as it may start to disintegrate before your eyes.
Halite which is a form of Salt has been used for purification and as an offering to the Gods for centuries. Most modern magical alters contain a dish of salt as standard equipment and many magic-users make it a practice to place a pinch of salt in the four corners of the room before beginning a ceremony in order to prevent negative influences from interfering. In many magical traditions, it is considered important to purify or cleanse a space before any sort of ritual can take place.
There are a several different ways of doing this, and how you do it will depend in part upon the rules or guidelines of your tradition. If you’re a solitary, or your tradition is eclectic, then you may choose the method that works best for you. Typically, when an area is ritually purified, it is done in a clockwise, or deosil, direction, but this may vary from one tradition to the next. Ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians offered their Gods salt and water during invocations. Salt may be added to water to consecrate it and make it more like sea water “the womb of the Earth”. This water may be used in a variety of ways but is often used to sanctify an area, person or item.
Metaphysical Healing Properties Of Halite
Many of us know common table salt to be beneficial (in moderation, of course), but Halite is a wonderful healer in other ways as well. A mineral of purification, Halite can cleanse the aura, deflect negativity and balance the emotions (especially helpful for those who suffer from mood swings). Because of its purification properties, Halite is one of the most valuable minerals to use when cleansing crystals – placing your crystals in a bowl of salt will rid them of all the negative energy and impurities they have collected over time and use.
Halite is excellent in rectifying mood swings, enhances good will and diminishes negativity. Halite stimulates and preserves acupressure, acupuncture meridians. Pink Halite clears the heart chakra. Indigo Halite stimulates psychic power, mysticism and intuition. Halite also allows to go deep into the self in order to find ancient solutions to present-day problems.
Because of its traditional medicinal uses and connection to the origins of life, salt is said to support physical well being, vitality, and longevity. It also has more metaphorical associations with life and death. Water often represents spirit. Because salt dissolves in water but may later precipitate out as new crystals, salt symbolizes both the body and its rebirth, resurrection, and immortality. Similarly salt water is a common tool in the metaphysical community to return people, places, and objects to energetic wholeness. Just as it dissolves in water but can later recrystallize, salt represents the alchemical process of things being broken down into their individual elements, purified, and returned integrated to the whole.

Pink Halite is also a stone of great clarity. This stone has been known to assist in providing uplifting energies to anyone who constantly suffers from a foggy mind or lack of mental energy. It helps one who is constantly debating or weighing certain decisions in their head, and pushes one in a direction. This stone teaches one to take great pride and care in their personal decisions they make, and assists with finding an abundance of joy in these difficult decisions.
Halite is a great absorber of stray energy and may need to be cleansed and recharged often. If they are not charged, halite crystals will just absorb whatever energy is around them.
Halite crystals may be cleansed by smudging, stored in a cloth they must be kept away from moisture. Halite will dissolve in water, one of my preferred ways to cleanse crystals is to use sound eg a crystal tuning folk. Salt used for banishing should not be reused but should be discarded. It can be thrown on a crossroads or tossed into running water to take the negative energy far away from you. Use only small amounts at a time because too much salt is not healthy for vegetation or animals.
Although it comes from the sea, salt is an ancient symbol of the Earth instead because of the cubic growth of its crystals. The cube is a symbol of stability, equality, and the material world, often paired with a celestial sphere. A cube or groups of cubes were often the model for temples, altars, and thrones historically. It expands the symbolism of the square, representing things like the four directions, to six, because of its six faces. Six based geometric figures like the hexagram (Star of David) symbolize the union of opposites like male/female, the six directions (East, South, West, North, Above, and Below), and concepts like the six days of Creation in the Bible. Because of salt’s relationship to the cube, it is associated not only with grounding but manifestation and anchoring spiritual energies into the material world, mirroring cosmology like sacred architecture.
