African Bloodstone is a form of Chalcedony and Jasper also known as Setonite.
It is believed to have gotten its name from the red inclusions which usually look a lot like blood spatters.
In ancient times Bloodstone was believed to be an "audible oracle" that could give guidance through sound. It was also considered to be a sacred and magical stone said to be able to control the weather and for banishing evil. It was said to stimulate dreaming and was considered a powerful revitalizer.
African Bloodstone has also long been associated with abundance in all things. It is used by many as part of their manifestation grids to attract an abundance of wealth, health and happiness to their physical realities.
This is a strong cleansing and amplifying stone that can help remove energetic blocks and negative influences and replace them with strong positive and higher frequency vibrations.
