Large Ocean Jasper Sphere | 1lbs 10oz | 83mm ❤️Origin & Regionality: Ocean Jasper, also known as Desert Jasper, was first discovered between 2006-2008 in northwest Madagascar while searching for new deposits of the popular Ocean Jasper. Only found on the northwest coast of Madagascar and an extremely rare form of Jasper. ❤️Properties: Ocean Jasper is strongly associated with the Fire Element, therefore promoting vitality, passion, and creativity. It is a powerful grounding stone, connecting you to Mother Earth more closely. Ocean Jasper can be used as a protective stone, clearing blocked energy channels and deflecting negative energies. It can align multiple Chakras, but is most commonly associated with the centering Root Chakra. ❤️All our stones are stored at our small ranch in California and are allowed to soak up the peaceful and loving environment. They are not stuffed away in boxes or crates, but outside on display until they change homes. There are many animals here, many previously neglected and abused that are drawn to the stones; no doubt the energy makes them curious, as animals, being pure souls, can pick up gentle well-meaning vibrations better than we can. In the process I am sure they lovingly leave some of their innocent essence behind for the stones to soak up. ❤️Every stone carries the Universe inside, just look real close.
