Jade gemstone is one of the healing stones that has been used extensively in the past, especially in the ancient Eastern civilizations. This stone is therefore equally an ancient decorative mineral as it is a modern therapeutic tool. Jades are stones of peace and calm and can be extraordinary helpers and silent companions which are able to delicately promote their beneficial energies to help advance human consciousness to higher levels. Due to their excellent general effectiveness, jade stones stand side by side with diamonds which are known as the most efficient gemstones of all. Owing to the widespread beliefs identifying jade as incarnation of the universal cosmic principles, jade has been treated as royal stone in many different cultures.
Jade is one of the few crystal healing crystals that are unable to hurt you in any respect if you wear it or use it regularly. We own this to the amazing ability of this stone not to absorb any negative vibration from the surrounding space. Instead, jade stones are known to be able to protect you from all the negative vibrations that could possibly find their way to your biological energy field. These stones will constantly irradiate their calming and cleansing vibration strengthening your auric energy. Jade is capable of establishing strong bonds between the different layers of your mental body and thus enhancing your intellectual potential. The Eastern civilizations of the more or less distant past have been conscious of its attributes, but unfortunately quite a few important facts and information regarding crystal healing using jade was lost with the arrival of our materialistic money oriented society.
Meaning, metaphysical, and healing with jade
Jade responds to the subtle vibrations of planet Neptune. Therefore many souls born in the water signs of the horoscope are especially strongly attracted to this gemstone. Jade stone affects the feelings and emotions indirectly, but the resulting effect is nevertheless pretty strong since the penetrating ability of this wondrous green stone is persistent and long-lasting even though it is slow.
In principle, jade is a stone composed of two different minerals from the same mineral family--- jadeite and nephrite --- that can be found together in the same gemstone but need not to. In terms of crystal healing they both have similar interactions but with subtle differences.
If you want to purchase jade for use in crystal therapy, a few words of caution should be said. Very often different types of stones and crystals are offered as jade, being neither jadeite nor nefphrite. Almost as a rule many green stones are promoted as jade, for example, Indian jade which in fact is aventurine, or Australian jade which is serpentine, just to mention a few. Make sure you purchase either jadeite or nephrite no matter what the marketing
The best jades lean toward transparency, and such specimens can have fantastic beauty and strength. Remember that like with all the metaphysical healing stones, the strength of the crystals depends great deal on its purity, in other words, transparency. The colors of jade can vary considerably, starting from the pale cream white or yellow of nephrite, via the various shades of deep or light green, up to red or even pink. This is one of the crystals suitable for all the signs in the horoscope, and every individual can choose the color of its liking and preference.
Cleansing and Jade Meditation
In China many statues of goddess Quan Yin are made of jade. Quan Yin is goddess of mercy and compassion. She as the protector of children and motherhood, is very much adored by the women of Asia. Her jade statues are believed to repel negative energies, especially after heavy domestic fights, disputes and misunderstandings. In any case, jade is considered one of the most precious stones in Chinese mythology, as valuable as gold in our society.
Jade belongs to the group of few rare stones and crystals that need not cleansing from the influence of other people's energy fields. It always remains clean and calm, spreading its beneficial vibrations all around the space. Still, from time to time purification, either with water, or using other stones is advisable.
Jade is a perfect gemstone for inner peace meditation. Inner calmness is necessary if we want to be able to listen to other people's communications. If we are restless within, if we have a constant inner dialog, we will not be able to properly understand what it is that other humans want to convey to us.
In order to practice this meditation, take a peace of jade in your hands. Listen to what this mineral has to tell us. Just be there and listen to it. Do not try to extract anything from it. We need to learn how to listen by carefully holding the stone and letting it reveal its secrets to us. That is the way you should approach other people as well.

Although jade is believed not to store negative vibrations, I would suggest that you follow the normal
procedure of crystal cleansing and charging. If you
still don't like your jade ring after the purification,
your energy field is likely not compatible with jade's energy at present. Just put it away for some time and
wait until you feel attracted to it anew.

Hi Sunny...I would appreciate if you could advice whether this method of crystal cleansing and charging works the same for Jade?
Thanks!

Jade, at least in principle, is one of the stones that requires no special cleansing. If you insist on cleansing it, you can rinse it in water for a couple of minutes.
You can charge it with active or passive energy, or any other particular type of energy that best suits your intentions. Sorry for being so vague, but it really comes to
using your own ideas, thoughts, feelings and intentions when working with your metaphysical crystals.

Hi sunny,
I just went to see a feng shui master today and he told me that the reason my luck has been so bad was because I have an evil spirit following me for some time.
He did a cleansing for me and ask me to not wear my jade bracelet again because it attracts and traps evil energy and that's is also the cause of all my body aches.
Could that be true? I've been wearing it for about 13 years and I've only heard that it wards off evil, can it have a different effect in different situations?
I'm really confuse now!
sunny says:
05-16-2012
Hi Dilee,
If in doubt, you can cleanse your jade bracelet by rinsing it under running water and by smudging it with incense or smoke from sage sticks. Alternatively, you can use the cleansing powers of the fire and earth element. Then you should
charge your bracelet in the sunlight and project your best thoughts and wishes into it. Jade, by itself, neither attracts nor traps evil energy, so there is no reason
why you shouldn't wear it. However it is always possible that people, consciously or unconsciously, project negative energies into some crystals or stones.

Dilee, I m no expert but maybe its possible you have a piece of jade, that has the spirit of its previous owner attatched to it? Maybe they were a negative person. If it is indeed
not a newly created piece.

Are there any reliable sources on the internet with information on the different colors of jade, what they represent in terms of energy, healing and chakras?
And anywhere online I can find great deals on jadeite and nephrite? I do not have much money :(
thank you sunny for sharing your knowledge.

Hi Christopher,
thanks for your comments. I am not aware of any such informational sources. Maybe someone reading this page will be able to answer you questions.
christopher says:
07-10-2012
And any reputable sources online when buying jadeite and nephrite?
sunny says:
07-10-2012
Hi Christopher,
I would have said Amazon.com, but even there one should be really careful when purchasing jadeite and nephrite. Today, there is too much fake
jade being marketed as genuine jade, and especially so on the internet.

Cali, jade is actually one of the best crystals for meditation. You can also combine it with many other stones and crystals.

My wife has owned two jade necklaces (worn against her skin). With both necklaces the jade broke and fell off. Why did the jade seem to explode?
sunnyray says:
03-28-2013
Other than some mistake in the manufacturing of the necklaces, there is nothing inherent to jade that would cause this behaviour.
JadeChakra says:
04-03-2013
I have two jade stones; one as a bracelet and the other as a Buddha necklace. Now, I read that gemstones have chakra from which they derive energy from certain parts of the body.
I read that it can aid in the healing of heart and disgestive problems. IS THIS TRUE?
sunnyray says:
04-04-2013
Hi JadeChakra,
Jade is usually associated with the fourth, hearth chakra. The list of stones that belong to this chakra can be found here.
Now, when it comes to healing, people have always used stones to heal various conditions, but please be aware that this is not an exact science. The action of the stones is
metaphysical, which means that we are dealing with our subtle energy fields and auras. Furthermore, the usage of stones requires your conscious cooperation, for example in order
to focus these subtle energies through the stone matrix to the various energy streams and subtle aura. Thus, more often than not, just wearing various crystals and stones will not be
enough to get any result from them.
