The filings are traditionally obtained from metal working operations as the scrap material filed off larger iron parts. The most common uses for iron filings are electromagnetism experiments, chemistry experiments, art works, fireworks (sparklers), concrete additive, and sand blasting. Iron filings powder can help compare the strength of electromagnets. The more iron filing that is lifted, the stronger the magnet is. Mystical Attributes:  Iron is historically believed to repel, contain, or harm ghosts, fairies, and other malevolent supernatural creatures. Nailing an iron horseshoe to a door is said to repel evil spirits or, later, to bring good luck. Surrounding a cemetery with an iron fence is thought to contain the souls of the dead. Burying an iron knife under the entrance to one’s home is alleged to keep evil from entering. If an iron horseshoe is hung on a door with the two ends pointing up, then good luck will occur. However, if the two ends point downwards, then bad luck will occur. The good or bad luck achieved will only occur to the owner of the horseshoe, not the person who hangs it up. Iron has been used to make amulets to protect against danger, bad luck and the Evil Eye, as well as against demons and spirits. Ancient Egyptians inserted iron amulets in the linen wrappings of a mummy in order to invoke the protection of the Eye of Horus. Iron is the warrior’s metal. It associated with the planet Mars, as well as the deity by that name. Mars is the god of war, and so iron is an almost archetypical representation of the warrior, of power, and of courage. The red color of the planet Mars is due to the vast amounts of iron oxide on the planet. Iron has long been used for forging tools and weapons. Mystical Intentions:  repelling negative energy, containing spirits, protection from evil, good luck, bad luck, strength, determination, will-power, assertiveness, aggression, binding, guarding, grounding, astral travel, war, power, courage, confusing, boundaries, competition, commanding, defense, war, fertility rites, new beginnings, power, attraction Contraindications: Iron filings are generally safe, but are irritants if ingested, inhaled, or rubbed in the eyes.
