1.75g CERUSSITE

Cerussite is a lead carbonate mineral with a hardness of 3.5. It belongs to the orthorhombic system, forming tabular or prismatic crystals and is very fragile. Because of its lead content, Cerussite crystals are quite dense in weight but when handling this crystal, one must remember that it is extremely delicate and can break if not properly taken care of while in motion. So by no circumstances should this crystal be submerged in water or used with water for metaphysical purposes…the most important reason being that lead is toxic and the second most important, as stated multiple times, the crystal is fragile!

Cerussite deposits can be found all over the planet but the most popular localities include: the Tsumeb mine in Namibia, the Ojuela mine in Mexico, and the Broken Hill mine in Australia.

A very mesmerizing property that Cerussite possesses is that its dispersion is greater and more intense than diamonds. What is dispersion? Also known as the gems, “fire”, the dispersion occurs when light hits the crystal and the spectrum or rainbow of color is seen within and all around the stone. 

Acquiring a Cerussite specimen would be a great achievement for any mineral collector across the globe, as they are more sparse on the market & have a higher price range. Of course, like most crystals, the price & rarity will differentiate by the locality and quality of the stone.


I discovered through personal research that the metaphysical and spiritual properties of Cerussite are quite untapped - probably because it’s not a very popular stone for crystal healers, but more popular among fine mineral collectors. Also, it’s not really a stone you can handle a lot, depending on the structure of the piece. To give an example; some Cerussite crystals form into a more solid or singular crystal, which would be easier to handle and less likely to be damaged.   Clustered specimens would require more care, however, it doesn’t mean you wouldn’t be able to use them for metaphysical purposes. It would just be wiser to keep them at home and maybe have them around you or close by rather than in your pocket, under your pillow, in your bra or wherever your preferred stashing place is.

The most prominent visuals & feelings I received while working with Cerussite have been that it is a stone of the  “underdog”… which is quite a paradox when you think about it. How can this stone which is so prestigious and highly sought after resonate with those who, from an outside perspective, seem not to have much to offer or will gain little success?

This is a stone for the people who have had a hard time fitting into society or societal norms the entirety of their lives. This is the crystal for my fellow black sheep! Who else here is the black sheep of their family or work place? How much of a burden has that been for you to carry? It’s a lot right? It can be one of our biggest wounds and something that causes depression or isolation but it’s also been one of our biggest motivators. - And that’s what we’re going to tap into here.

Cerussite magnetizes people who are going through a lot mentally, emotionally & spiritually to the user. Not as a means for an added burden or feeling drained, but because the user may also be going through a hard time. Here, we will find that in our lives we are not alone and there are people we can always relate to no matter what their background is or what their personal beliefs are. With that, Cerussite may help one let go of judgement towards others and their experience.

Cerussite will help the user embrace their uniqueness. Another thing I’ve noticed while using this stone is that it’s been easier for me to attract inspirational & innovative people into my field. Whether they are public figures, musicians, actors or friends and peers. You will notice a surge of creative energy emanating from within you and all around you. For example, I’ve always been a David Bowie fan, but recently since working with Cerussite, David Bowie has been popping up a lot for me, whether its been his movies, album suggestions on Spotify, or seeing people wearing his merch. Ps, When I'm writing this its almost his birthday! Happy Birthday Bowie, born Jan 8..as well as my biggest inspiration, also Jan 8, Happy Birthday Elvis Presley. - MIND BLOWN, Two great examples of UNDERDOGS! Both coming from very difficult early life circumstances, were black sheep due to their interests and their non-conforming looks & fashion choices - Only to embrace their passion which drove them deep into self expression, becoming two of the most innovative, popular, successful & recognizable musicians & performers of our modern history. PLUS, Both men often being referred to as aliens or from outer space…again possessing that weird or strange vibe.

This is a stone about trusting ones instincts and going down the road less travelled. In the face of scrutiny & criticism due to one's innate magic & power. The user may be someone who receives a lot of pressure from family & peers throughout life due to naturally exuding a different, more influential energy than most people. Using Cerussite, will help the user use all of this to their advantage. To love themself for being “strange” among the masses. And to let their passion drive them!

Pairing this stone with a vision board of what you want for yourself could prove to be very potent. Put pictures of people who inspire you, things you want to achieve, images that remind you of how special you are, and take some time out of each day to look at it , while holding Cerussite or having a Cerussite crystal near. Imagine that you are or have all those things in that very moment.

Working with Cerussite can help one be open to new concepts or to be a pioneer of something new.

By embracing your differences and following your heart or souls path, without giving up or allowing fear to rule you, you will find success!
