An Introduction to Jasper

Jasper is a member of the Chalcedony family. This means it is a form of Microcrystalline Quartz, also related to Agate, Carnelian, and Onyx, among others. Unlike its Chalcedony-cousin Agate, Jasper is opaque, due to a larger percentage of impurities within the silicon base. These impurities create the vast array of colors and patterns that can be found within the Jasper family of stones.

In general Jaspers are considered to be a very nurturing stone, helping to connect us to nature, balance energies, and provide confidence. The easiest way to identify the unique healing benefits of each individual form of Jasper are by color. Connecting the color palette to the corresponding Chakra will help you to identify the healing benefits of each specific Jasper in your collection. Below you’ll learn about some of the most popular Jasper varieties and their healing properties.
