Ocean Jasper and Jade make a beautiful heart centred, earth loving combination.

Ocean Jasper or Orbicular Jasper is a rhyolite rock from Madagascar in which quartz and feldspar crystals form orbicular, or spherical, structures.
It is very beautiful, and is often used for decorative purposes. It comes in many colours, including ivory white, pale to dark green, pink, red, brown.

In common with many Jaspers, it is supportive and protective. It is also calming and brings a sense of well-being. I feel that it works especially with the Heart and Earth Star chakras. From this calm, supported, protected space, we are more able to accept who we are, and express who we truly are more confidently, and without self-judgement, out into the world.

I have found that it has been very helpful for people who have angina. Please be aware that I am not suggesting that this stone is a cure for angina, but from the first time a student noticed and reported a real improvement, I have experimented with it many times.

Jade has been valued for healing since ancient times. It is deeply calming, helping us to find our still centre in times of stress, overwhelm or negative influences. It is also strongly protective.

Jade promotes wisdom and peace, and helps us to reconnect with the Whole of which we are a part, so that we can be filled with love, gratitude and appreciation for the beauty of Creation.

On a physical level, it has an affinity with the kidneys and bladder.
