Cassiterite is the stone of initiation, which vibrates at the frequency of the threshold (the liminal space between worlds). Meditating with this stone will ensure one becomes familiar with crossing many thresholds and moving through numerous interdimensional gates.

Cassiterite, also called "Tinstone", can manifest dreams by helping to focus intent and manifestation energies. Cassiterite also provides for grounding and protection.

For those who suffer from issues of rejection, prejudice, abandonment, or disapproval, Cassiterite will help to dissolve the pain and negative energies associated with these feelings. Cassiterite encourages/enhances optimism and positive spirit.

Physically, Cassiterite has been used in the treatment of eating disorders, complusive behaviours, obesity and hormonal imbalances.
