JADE

IDENTIFICATION & INFO

- Jade is the name shared by two different minerals; calcium magnesium silicate Nephrite and sodium aluminium silicate Jadeite.

- Although their compositions, crystal structures, and densities are different, they are both similar in looks and toughness, and they both have equally important metaphysical characteristics.

- They both occur in a lovely shade of olive green, but there are also distinctions in their colour.

- Myanmar is the main source of Jade, but it can also be found in Japan, New Zealand, Siberia, Australia, Canada, and the USA.

- If you’re wondering why you need Jade in your life, it’s because Jade is a fantastic balancing stone!

- No matter how busy you are with your career or personal life, Jade will keep everything in check and give you the support that you need to fulfil your different roles.

- It’s a great confidence booster, and it will help you deal with difficult people with ease and calm.

- The energies of this stone will keep you levelheaded and patient in any kind of situation.

- Jade properties such as these are a big reason why this stone has been such a big part of so many cultures for so many centuries.

- Of course, the most famous of these uses tend to come from the Far East, but this isn’t the only part of the world where appreciation for Jade is high, both in history and in the current age.

- In the Far East though, much is often said about duality, of harmonising opposites. This is where this stone really comes into its own.
 
For instance, that confidence we just talked about will be balanced by humility, so you never overstep any boundaries or bite off more than you can chew.

- For people whose minds and hearts feel like battles between powerful extremes, Jade can really help to bring calmness and clarity!

- Jade is also known to be a lucky stone because it will bring energies of love, wealth, and health.

- When you’re experiencing a slump in your career, Jade will help you create more purposeful goals. This stone will also help you realize your full potential in both the personal and professional landscape.

- Jade will give you tranquil wisdom, and it will discard negativities in your system. It will also show you how you can see your true self.

- It will encourage you to pursue your personal ambitions relentlessly. It will remind you of your self-sufficiency and determination to rise every time you fall, and to try again every time you experience a roadblock.

- Jade is also known as the eternal youth stone. When you have this stone in your life, you will always have that childlike wonder and playful streak.

- The soothing green of the Jade stone makes it an excellent healing stone. It can promote self-healing and work on the non-physical reasons of the illness.

- It’s a stone that can both be healing and calming to the nervous system, as well as to the kidneys, gall bladder, and liver. It can benefit the renal system and help get rid of kidney stones as well.

- Jade will work to strengthen the chi or your life force and promote cell regeneration.

- It can reduce the pains associated with cramps and problems associated with the joints and the bones.

- Jade’s healing energies can also help in rebuilding the tissues and the skeletal system.

- Jade is known to be especially beneficial after plastic surgery or reconstructive surgery. It can help reduce and better manage the pain that usually follows this procedure.

- This stone can also be very useful in the treatment of eating disorders in teenagers, as well as with reproductive problems in women. The healing energies of Jade can aid in the childbirth process, too.

- It can effectively drain the lymphatic system and boost your blood circulation. It can also lessen the tension in your facial muscles, which makes it a wonderful beauty tool that will smooth out wrinkles.

- As touched on though, Jade healing properties also look at the non-physical causes of many of your moments of illness or injury.

- From here, the stone helps to reinforce that often our mind and our spiritual self can manifest illness in our physical bodies.

- Likewise, even mainstream medicine and science now recognizes that stress is a condition that can lead to harmful physical symptoms.

- Because Jade works so well with your mind and your emotions, as much as it does your physical body, you will learn to understand how all these various parts of you are actually as one, and you can ensure that your lifestyle evolves accordingly.

- If you want to attract abundance in your life, you should always have a piece of Jade with you.

- This is a very important stone, especially if you will be doing business, transacting with a client, closing a sale, or conducting any business deal that you want to have favourable results.

- It will help you have a positive attitude towards money, and it will make you visualise yourself working, earning, and using money purposefully and creatively.
 
The prosperous energies of Jade will help you find the best course of action on matters that involve your finances and personal wealth.

- It can also improve your mental faculties so that you can achieve mental clarity and exercise sound judgement.

- These Jade benefits are especially sought out by many spiritually minded people seeking to do well in business, or in important projects for their company where recognition, promotion and a healthy bonus are on the line.

- After all, even though Jade is such a hugely lucky stone, you can’t rely on luck alone. How wonderful, then, that Jade can bring out your own confidence and clarity of mind so nicely.

- It does this not only by activating your capabilities to take the right action in the moment, but also to take a longer-term perspective that carries you on the right path as your ideas begin to bear fruit.
 
Some people even meditate with Jade and other stones when deciding where is best to invest money on the markets.

- Jade stone will support your financial growth and expansion. It will also promote new beginnings and give you the guidance that you need to be successful and wealthy.

- Jade will help you bring your deep- seated issues to light so that you can find resolutions. Whatever it is you are hiding in your heart, Jade will bring to the surface.

- This stone will make you understand that nothing will be resolved if you refuse to acknowledge that the problem exists.

The mature way to handle this is to bring it out of hiding and share it with the person you love.

- If you’re in a relationship, being honest with your partner can set the tone for your relationship.

- When you can share everything with your partner, there will be no feelings of fear or apprehension at all.

- You can focus solely on loving each other and on strengthening the bond that you share.

- When you’re not thinking about something that can blow up in your face in the future, you can better concentrate on the issues that affect your relationship.

- This Jade crystal meaning is very much sought out in affairs of the heart. Too often in relationships, self sabotaging fears or worries brought on by the behaviour of our partners can do us far more harm than good.

- Jade has a wonderful feeling of clarity and harmony about it, and so it can cut through all these illusions and put you both on the right track.

- It is a stone that can attract love, and all the good feelings that go with loving and being loved.

- If you’re single and hoping to be in a loving relationship soon, Jade can make it happen for you!

- Jade will promote happiness and harmony in your family life and in your romantic relationships. It will help you get rid of unhealthy emotions, and it will keep them away for good.

- This stone will also work to remove your self-imposed limitations. When it comes to loving, just go with what your heart is telling you.

- Even if it turns out to be a mistake, at least you can say to yourself that you listened and followed your heart.

- Jade will help with emotional healing. 

- It will help you come to terms with the events and deal with the changes.

- It will also give you hope that things will get better with every day that passes.

- It will increase the love and nurturing in your relationship. It will inspire you to become a more loving and generous lover.

- It will also bring energies of good luck in your friendships, romantic relationship, or marriage.

- Loving someone takes a lot of work, but the work will be easier if you have luck on your side.

- Jade stone will also promote self- sufficiency and independence in a committed relationship. It will always remind you that you are your own person, even if you are deeply in love and devoted to another.

- There are several factors that can determine the worth of your Jade.

- Color is the most important factor that can affect its worth. It’s generally analyzed based on its saturation, tone, intensity, and uniformity in the stone.

The most expensive Jade is the Imperial Jade which is semi-transparent and has an emerald-green tinge.

- It was much in demand by members of the Chinese royalty. It’s so expensive that it now costs millions of dollars! The second most valuable Jade is the nephrite Jade.

- White jade, Red, orange, and black Jades are quite popular, but they are less valuable compared to light green and lavender Jades.

- On the basis of transparency, Jade that is semi-transparent will be more highly priced.

- Jades that have good transparency will be more valuable even if they have uneven  colours or low saturation.

- Jade stones with the finest structure aremost valuable. The finer the texture, the better the transparency.

Jades that are cut into cabochons and used in making earrings, bracelets, and rings will give you an idea how much they are worth.

- Cabochon Jades will be evaluated based on their thickness, proportion, and symmetry. A cabochon Jade that has even surfaces and no spots and flaws are most valuable.

- Jade beads are also evaluated for their texture, color, size, and symmetry of cut. Well-matched Jades command higher prices.

- Jades are usually clean, but there can sometimes be inclusions. But if the inclusions affect the Jade’s translucency, the price will also be greatly reduced.

- However, if the inclusions look like silky tubes, these can enhance the Jade’s beauty and raise its price.

- Visible black inclusions reduce the price of Jades because they symbolise bad luck in Chinese culture.
 
If there are fractures, they will also reduce the price of the Jade.

- Cuts that use more rough Jade will fetch a higher price. This is why Jade bangles are the most expensive.

- However, a bracelet made of linked Jade beads can make a beautiful alternative if you’re on a budget.

- Like other expensive stones, Jades can be treated and faked. Sometimes even experts can’t be sure whether a Jade has been treated or not just by looking at it.

- If you find yourself deeply attracted to the allure of the Jade stone, it can mean that you are having an existential crisis and you’re looking for some reassurance.

- Real jade can give you the insight to look past your limitations and to release beliefs, ideas, and attitudes that are no longer working for you.

- It will give you the courage to discard the negative patterns that are holding you back and keeping you from reaching your potential.

- Jade is the ultimate lucky charm.

- It can bring energies of abundance and prosperity into your life and promote peace and harmony in all aspects.
 
Jade metaphysical properties are not only able to attract good fortune, however, but also shelter people from the bad.

- Placed in the home, it can become a protective decoration for your whole family. But worn on your person, it becomes a more personal guardian stone that helps you to not be overcome by the bad energies of others.

- Much of the value of Jade, both in money and in spiritual meaning, comes from its rich colour. The makeup of the stone makes this a fascinating stone to add to your collection.
