Green Jade Meaning: Abundance Within
Nourishing the body with the Earth’s loving energies, Jade strengthens a deep-rooted sense of wholeness and inner stability. Harmonizing with the heart chakra it expands gratitude for all that you have in your life. Jade promotes an abundance mindset and a knowing that there is plenty to go around. It teaches you that a rich and full life is not measured by the amount in your bank account, but by the wealth of people and experiences shared in each and every moment.
Bringing to light your unique qualities, Jade empowers self-worth through fully loving and accepting yourself exactly as you are. It cultivates a willingness to learn and grow by releasing unrealistic expectations and self-imposing limitations. Offering blessings of good fortune, it inspires humility by sharing your wealth with others.
Jade nurtures harmonious relationships between business partners or family members. Stimulating intuitive dreams, Jade serves as a protective talisman while gaining insight towards your higher purpose. Seen as a symbol of purity and power in Chinese culture, it was the belief that this stone imbued strength and vitality to its beholder and promised protection after death.
