Traditional uses
Hearts are traditional love tokens; trees symbolise growth and connection; planets and spheres evoke the cosmos. Jade has been treasured in China for over 7,000 years as a symbol of virtue and good fortune. In modern crystal tradition jade is linked with the heart chakra and with Taurus, Libra and Pisces. We share these as cultural traditions and personal beliefs only, never as health claims.
How to use it
- Hold it during a few minutes of quiet reflection.
- Rest it on a desk, bedside table or altar where you'll see it.
- It pairs traditionally with rose quartz or clear quartz.
- Grid idea: crystal grids arrange stones in a pattern such as a circle or the Flower of Life around a central piece and a written intention.
- Moon idea: many collectors set their stones out on the night of the full moon and bring them back in the next morning.
- Gifting idea: wrap it in a small cloth pouch with a handwritten note about the stone's traditional meaning.
Care
- Wipe with a fine, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; steer clear of soaps, salt and long soaks.
- Dust regularly and keep away from hard surfaces that could chip it.
