The name bloodstone, as it indicates, goes back to ancient Christianity, believing that Jesus Christ's blood dripped from the cross onto a dark green stone that lay beneath it.

Bloodstone is the Zodiac stone for Aries.

In Antiquity, as well as in the Middle Ages people believed that the cosmos is reflected in gemstones. The bloodstone is assigned to the planets Mars and Pluto. The esoteric movement revived the ancient belief and the gem industry made it another marketing tool to promote certain gems.

The healing powers of gems remain a controversial issue, but are mentioned for centuries by healers, shamans and medicine men. Whether it's a fact or a placebo effect doesn't matter, if it helps. The safest approach is to wear the gemstone in skin contact to the troubled part of the body. Jasper is said to be of help for pancreas, sciatica and troubled toenails.
