Metaphysical Meaning : Healers have reported jade as being a stone of good fortune and long life. It not only brings prosperity, but allows the wearer to hold onto their money rather than let it slip through their fingers. Other jade properties include, fertility, serenity, wisdom and balance. People who wear jade claim to feel calmer and relaxed, leaving them in a serene and tranquil mood. Geology : nephrite jade consists of calcium- and magnesium-rich amphibole mineral actinolite. The higher the iron content the greener the colour. The English word jade is derived from the Spanish term piedra de ijada (first recorded in 1565) or “loin stone”, from its reputed efficacy in curing ailments of the loins and kidneys. Nephrite is derived from lapis nephriticus, the Latin version of the Spanish piedra de ijada.
