Red Jasper Properties and Meanings
Red Jasper is an ancient and sacred stone that has held meaning throughout dozens of cultures since the beginning of human existence.
This is due to the combination of its relative popularity (meaning that it exists in a wide variety of locations and was readily available to the people in them), and it?s bold colouration.
The colours that jasper appears in include blue, red, green, yellow, black, or even the distinctive green-and-red speckled variety known as bloodstone.
There is virtually nowhere on Earth in which you could not find at least some jasper.
The best visited deposits in the modern day include those in India, Russia, Egypt, and the southwestern United States.
While jasper is technically a form of quartz, red jasper?s metaphysical properties are quite different from those of its parent stone.
While quartz is known for its purifying and energy-enhancing properties, red jasper has a powerful, fiery energy all its own.
There have been thousands of purported uses of red jasper, throughout history and across the globe.
Among others things, it has been said to stimulate energy, protect from misfortune (especially misfortune of a supernatural sort), and represent vigorous faith to a cause or religion.
Its popularity spread from Ancient Greece and Rome to Christian Europe over the Middle Ages, where it became a popular religious stone.
When paired with bloodstone, it represents the blood of Christ. It is also said to be sacred to the apostle Peter, ?the rock,? for the strength and solid foundation that he leant to the Church.
Today, red jasper is as popular as ever and is widely available and relatively inexpensive.
