Bloodstones Beautiful Spotted Semiprecious Stones
By: Priyanka Arora

Bloodstone is a green semi-precious stone that has red spots. This stone could also come in various intensities of dark green with brown, red and other multicolored spots. The brown and deep red colors are primarily caused by the iron minerals found in it. It is a dark green variety of chalcedony which has several nodules of red jasper that are distributed throughout its mass. The polished areas would therefore show some red spots that have a dark-green background. And because of the appearance that is achieved through this, it has been given its name. This stone has similar physical properties as quartz. It has a hardness of 7 on the Moh's scale.

During the Middle Ages, bloodstone or also blood jasper was attributed numerous special powers, as many believed that the spots were actually the blood from Jesus Christ. Therefore, it was extensively used for those sculptures which represented martyrdom and flagellation. It has also been commonly used for ornamental objects and as seals on men's rings.

This semi-precious stone could be mined in India, Australia, Kathiawar Peninsula, Brazil, the United States and China.

It also has a couple of holistic and healing properties. It is commonly associated to abundance, courage, good fortune and purification. It can also help an individual to embrace change as well as to overcome depression, anxiety and melancholy. It is also said to renew a person's love life and relationships, as well as provide vitality, improve organizational abilities, talent and charitable instincts. It is also know n to have the ability of curing psychosomatic illness and other body pains.
