Le Jais
black rolled gemstones size M, L, XL, pendants

Noir de Jais is an expression that evokes the intense and brilliant black color of this stone. It is similar to Houille de poix, less compact and more heterogeneous than Jais.

Derived from petrified coniferous wood, the materiality of Jet gives it a protective and spiritual aura that can be used to treat deep grief and loss in lithotherapy.

Meaning of active symbols

The ancient Greeks, then the Romans, recognized its value as a talisman aiding healing and warding off evil spirits.

History records that Jet gained popularity in the Victorian era in the West, which then adopted it as a resource for the creation of mourning jewelry.

Properties: overcoming pessimism

Like the complaint that a little voice would repeat over and over again, emotional pain can simply take up all the space.

Some may blame themselves for doing nothing to change their situation, for being sad and depressed.

But life will invite them to get out of the dark clouds of pessimism, to accept what cannot be changed and to get moving to dare to initiate the changes needed to get better.

In lithotherapy, Jet will be a talisman stone during these passages, acting as a shield for the spirit, suddenly less helpless in the face of difficult emotions and tragic events.

Feelings of loss, sadness and grief, as well as fear and anguish, can be released through symbolic expression. Jet stone will accompany you in your quest to regain emotional balance. By preserving your inner stability through a connection with earth energy, Jet purifies the mind and develops a sense of calm and serenity.

Jet can be used to accompany therapists and people working with energies.

According to tradition, Jais can help with migraines, skin diseases and intestinal disorders.
