Pyrite

[opal_dreamcatcher]

is Pyrite a good stone to shield the aura from psychic attacks and block mind readers?

Other stones I had iin mind:

Tourmaline
Elite Shungite
Hematite
Labradorite

I have heard that black stones like black tourmaline and black quartz are very good for protection. However I only collect crystals for their beauty and aesthetic purposes so take my advice with a grain of salt.

I would add Bronzite as well. Apparently it sends negativity back to the sender. Good thing too it's not hard to find and cheapish.

Hello

It is one that would work yes. I have it on the window ledge in my kitchen beside a house next to us that at times has had issues. Since I have put it there the party house is a lot nicer to live next to.

Bronzite works great for me, especially in combination with black tourmaline. For me, it's a proven combination.

Would wrapping with copper be an additional benefit for working with pyrite, bronzite, and tourmaline?

I haven't tried the combination of the two but it sounds interesting.

Probably but some people get a skin rash when copper is worn on the skin. Silver is also a good choice as silver enhances the metaphysical qualities of the stones. I just read on this forum that there is also apparently silverplated copper wire.
