Jasper is a kind of quartz. The colour is created by the presence of Iron Oxide (Hematite).
Jasper has a strong, earthy energy. It brings strength, stability, stamina and endurance. It is a very physical stone and helps us to connect with the soil – the body of Mother Earth. For some it can really help us to understand that we are, literally, made of Earth.

Carry if you are feeling overwhelmed and spaced out, or if you have things to do that you would rather avoid. It can help bring you back to the physical and enable strong, positive action.
