The family of jasper stones have an energy that’s very grounding and stabilizing. They promote the need to reduce insecurity, guilt, worry and fear and remind us of our connection with mother earth. Jasper is a great stone to have around if you’re in need of healing, or if you’re a healer, as it can be a useful tool for re-balancing the aura. Due to its grounding abilities, it’s a good stone to hold or have close by if you’re meditating, healing or involved in similar activities. It can be held in the hand whilst you visualize roots sprouting forth from your feet, securing and grounding you to the earth. Picasso or picture jasper helps create an air of harmony, and is said to enhance the relationship between human beings and nature. The colour and markings of picture jasper sometimes even appear to depict landscape paintings, adding further to this belief. It’s also useful for aiding creativity, creative visualization and the discovery of messages, whether through dreams, meditation or readings.
