Physical
Purpurite is an excellent stone for a healer to keep handy as it helps to "check in" on your client to ensure that he or she is getting the right healing that they need. Purpurite has been used in the treatment of haemorrhages, bruises and superficial wounds. It purifies the blood and can stabilise the pulse rate. It has also been used to ensure the proper flow of blood from the heart to the lungs.

Mental/Emotional
Purpurite allows us to speak freely and with confidence. It provides us with freedom from the material world and stops us being modest when we don’t really have to be. It is an excellent stone for allowing us to break free from old patterns of self-destructive behaviour and self-limiting behaviour. Purpurite can help us all to see what we can accomplish if we put our minds to it.

Spiritual
An excellent stone for meditation and one which can also increase our own spiritual aspirations. Purpurite provides a purity of thought that can help guide our planning and our actions on our path to spiritual enlightenment. Purpurite is also a very beneficial stone for Psychics to keep handy as it can be used to re-balance both the crown chakra and the third eye chakra after working.
