The next step I want to take in my rock identification process is learning more about the healing properties of the rocks I have found. Luckily, many features within the app can teach you about the different healing properties rocks have, their different uses, and their different qualities. I have always loved rocks and often carry them in my pocket to use as a natural fidget. I love the smoothness of rocks and find it calms me to fidget with a natural object; however, I have never thought to look into what the healing properties of the rocks I fidget with may be and how that may add to the calming feeling I get.<\/p>\n

Although all three jaspers have similar healing properties, there are some differences between them. \u00a0Red jasper is known as a grounding stone that provides a sense of balance and stability. Red jasper can increase creativity and motivate you to get things done. Green jasper is also a grounding stone but promotes strength and stamina of the mind, body, and spirit. It can also help provide motivation and endurance for success. It also has a very calming energy and is known to relieve stress. Whereas brecciated jasper is a grounding stone that people employ to restore vitality and improve focus. It is said to remove negative energy and overcome feelings of shame and guilt, and encourages strength and positive energy.<\/p>\n

It is a recommended stone to have while meditating outside and can enhance wisdom and help retrieve lost memories. Aventurine is known to be an energy-amplifying stone and can help with manifestation. It may bring good fortune and prosperity, and is often thought of as a good luck stone. On top of that, it is also known to have mood-boosting abilities and bring happiness and vitality. Milky quartz is known to be a very powerful stone that can be cleansing for the whole body. It is thought that it can boost concentration, memory, and communication. Milky quartz is especially interesting as it is believed to help with healing physical illness, such as headaches, migraines, motion sickness, bladder infections, and skin disorders.<\/p>\n

After learning more about the rocks I have and what healing properties they may have, I understand it more and found it very interesting to learn about. My next curiosity is to see if I can find any information on how local Indigenous peoples use rocks and what healing properties they see in them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
