Bloodstone is dark green with red flecks.  It is grounding, but not in a heavy way.  It is an excellent healer for the physical body, especially for blood disorders and liver problems.  It is an powerful detoxifier.  It is also very useful to provide support and stability and to increase energy when compromised.  If you are feeling low following illness, and need a boost, bloodstone could give steady, reliable support.  I have found that Bloodstone has helped with infertility.
