Black Tourmaline has a calming effect, grounding unhelpful energies into the earth. It is one of the most popular metaphysical stones. The mineral name is Schorl. Black Tourmaline has a distinctive appearance with glossy long striated crystals. This structure and its other properties generate a strong piezoelectric effect, with electrically charged poles at the crystal’s poles. It is also pyroelectric, generating an electric charge through temperature changes. As a result, Black Tourmaline is a highly protective stone, able to block, repel and transmute negative energies.
