Shungite's is a stone of powerful purification, protection (especially against EMFs), and grounding, stemming from its ancient origin and carbon-based structure containing unique fullerenes, making it popular for water purification, EMF shielding near electronics, meditation for stability, and absorbing negative energy for overall well-being. It's linked to the root chakra, offering deep energetic balance, stress relief, and a link to Earth's ancient energies.
