In some African cultures, it was seen as a stone of great value, often carried by tribal leaders for protection and guidance.

🏡💧Tourmaline is a fabulous aid in cleansing and grid work, I have pieces in every room, alongside Clear Quartz, by windows and doors. Before I cleanse my home, I remove my protective crystals and cleanse them, this way, any unwanted, stagnant or negative energies that may be lingering about, can leave easily, I place them back in their protective roles freshly cleansed and with intentions set to keep the home and all who enter it safe and any unwanted energy at bay.
 
😴 Tourmaline can also be used as a blocking tool if you’re having unwanted dreams, visitations that are happening more often than you’d like or you’d just like to switch off that overactive brain for a while.
 
A minor warning ⚠️ Tourmaline is best used temporarily in these instances these things tend to come about when there’s more going on under the surface or we need to take notice of something or learn to manage a situation, Tourmaline is powerful for protection and grounding but we don’t want to find ourselves cut off from important downloads, dreams, thoughts, intuition, feelings or relationships 🔮
