Grounding and Stability: As a stone birthed from the Earth's core, it is primarily viewed as a "grounding stone." It is believed to strengthen the wearer's connection to Mother Earth, providing stability during times of change and chaos.
Rebirth and Transformation: Because it forms from the intense heat of an eruption, it symbolizes rebirth, renewal, and the shedding of unneeded emotional layers.
Strength and Courage: In various cultures, it has been used as a sign of enormous strength. Historically, it was sometimes given to soldiers to help them remain calm and draw on inner courage during battle.

Protection: It is said to act as a protective shield, absorbing and dissipating negative energy to provide a sense of safety.
Zodiac Ties: It is frequently associated with the fire signs Aries and Leo, as well as earth signs like Taurus, due to its dual nature of fire and earth.
