** Information on this Gemstone **
Mystical Properties: The redder varieties are thought lucky for soldiers going into battle. Wearing Bloodstone Jewelry is thought to instill courage, strength and power in the wearer, hence Bloodstone is considered a beneficial gemstone to athletes.
The greener varieties are associated with money and wealth. It is said a Bloodstone in the cash drawer of any business, will draw a steady flow of money. A Bloodstone pendant is said to attract wealth to its wearer.
It has been used magically to become invisible--or at least not attract attention. This is said to be achieved by rubbing the gemstone with crushed Heliotrope flowers, then carrying or wearing the gem.
Because Bloodstone gets its name from the legends surround the Crucifixion of Christ and his blood dropping on the ground, it is said to have special healing qualities associated with stemming hemorrhages, dysmenorrhea and nose bleeds.
Western Astrology associates the gemstone with Aries. Eastern/Hindu Astrology associates the gemstone with the planet Mars.
Jewelers consider Bloodstone a secondary March birthstone. Eastern/Hindu Astrology associates the gemstone with the planet Mars.
