Bloodstone Benefits

Bloodstone, also known as Heliotrope in ancient times, typically appears green with red flecks, though it can also manifest in brown, grey, or yellow hues. Its texture ranges from opaque to almost translucent.

Believed to shield against negativity and bolster the immune system, Bloodstone enhances vitality and promotes healthy blood circulation. Its grounding properties are said to instill courage and strength, while its energy aligns with the Root Chakra, fostering stability and confidence. Additionally, it's thought to enhance fertility in women and provide mental clarity to avoid risky situations. From a financial perspective, Bloodstone is associated with prosperity and abundance, akin to promoting health and robustness in the body. Spiritually, it symbolizes "The Well," representing depth and the ability to bring underlying issues to the surface.

Bloodstone Care and Cleansing

For cleansing, you can keep Bloodstone in running water for 1-2 minutes or place it on a bed of salt for a few hours. However, strung jewelry may not tolerate this method; instead, consider hanging a Bloodstone necklace or bracelet among the branches of a healthy plant for a few hours or laying them on the earth in a clean environment. Bloodstone can also be cleansed in sunlight for up to 10 minutes, although prolonged exposure may cause color fading.
