Description
Primary Information
The name and character of Jade are associated with numerous cultures, all alluding to its supposed medical property of healing calculus stones and kidney and bladder diseases. It was known as “spleen-stone” by the Mesoamericans and was dubbed Yu-Stone by the ancient Chinese. The word Nephrite comes from the Greek word nephros, which means kidney. When the Spanish conquered the New World, they dubbed it Piedra de Hijada (lapis nephrictus in Latin), which means “Stone of the loin” or “Stone of the flank.” The term “pierre le jade” was misprinted in a later French version.
Emotional Healing
The metaphysical characteristics of jade are what make it so valuable. It is the ultimate “Dream Stone,” renowned in ancient cultures and today for its ability to open doors to the spiritual world, acquire insight into sacred knowledge, inspire creativity, and help people solve problems in their dreams. It is regarded as a potent healing stone and is regarded as a protective talisman, ensuring long life and peaceful death. Jade is a good luck and friendship amulet that represents wisdom acquired in peace, eliminating negativity and enabling one to view oneself as they truly are.
