Dalmation Stone is one of those Jaspers that aren’t Jasper (Quartz). It is a rhyolite rock with dark spots on a pale background. The dark spots are Arfvedsonite and the background is mostly Feldspar. It isn’t a Quartz based Jasper.

It is grounding but also has a bubbly, joyful, playful energy. It can help us to be ourselves, fully present in the moment, but without taking ourselves too seriously. If we are feeling that life is all work and no play, Dalmation Stone can help to take our attention away from overwhelm to finding joy in small things.

This is a nice grounding energy for children, since it isn’t at all heavy.
