This is a carved Dragon's Blood Jasper FROG totem. There are a few small organic spots here and there from inclusions that were close to the surface as the stone was polished. ALL inclusions present are 100% natural parts of the stone. Really a cute piece! Nice simple, clean details. Check out how it works with subtle energies below.
It weighs about 1.3oz and measures approx. 1 3/4" inches long X 1 1/2" inches wide at the widest point. Code-10062024-3804
As a totem animal, the Frog represents metamorphosis and coming into one's own personal power. Frog reminds us not to get bogged down in day-to-day living - take pleasure in the little things! The Frog is a totem closely connected to water, for obvious reasons. Frog sometimes shows up to remind us to get in touch with our feelings. Frogs have been thought to help cleanse negativity as well.
Dragon’s Blood “Jasper" is the main trade name used for this stone, and that is the term most used to search for this material.
It is also known by these trade names: Dragon's Blood, Dragon’s Bloodstone, Dragon's Blood Stone, Dragon Stone, Dragonstone and Dragon’s Blood Epidote, (which is a more accurate name for this stone, but less well known.)
Dragon's Blood is mainly composed of a form of green and red epidote that includes large amounts of sorosilicate. Sorosilicate forms two silicate tetrahedrons in every molecule: four oxygen molecules surrounding one silicate molecule. This is an important fact.
Tetrahedrons are energetically powerful formations. They are associated with the element of fire and support the actions of empowerment and manifestation.
Tetrahedrons have long been associated with Dragons and they are believed to have identical frequencies / energies.
THIS is the key reason the stone is called Dragon’s Blood - NOT because of its colors.
This stone has been considered to be associated with Dragons for centuries, by traditional Crystal Healers, long before molecules were even known to exist! (I find this particularly interesting.)
As mentioned, the green color of this stone comes mainly from epidote, which is known as a stone of fulfillment and increase. This is because the frequency of epidote has a tendency to increase the size of the energy field of many other things; Dragon’s Blood Jasper also does this, as well.
This is an energetically intense stone that supports courage and is thought to impart strength, as it enhances emotional and spiritual growth. Those that are drawn to Dragon’s Blood are often being guided rather forcefully into spiritual awakening.
Dragon's Blood helps to cleanse the aura/energy field of trauma and repressed emotions, and helps with patience. It's an excellent stone for those wanting to work with anger issues and depression.
It's also used to enhance one's perceptions and engender an enthusiasm for life, boost self-confidence, and support self-empowerment. It eases change while encouraging balance and positive transformations. Dragon's Blood also assists one in staying grounded, (although it is associated with the Third Chakra, not the Root Chakra.)
All of these energetic characteristics are important parts of one’s ability to manifest what they truly desire; that is why Dragon's Blood is often called a "Wishing Stone."
In Crystal Healing, Dragon's Blood is used to stimulate the immune system and support healing on all levels. It is also used to reduce panic attacks, anxiety, aid with digestion, promote healthy skin, and facilitate thyroid function.
It is associated with the Third Eye (Sixth) and the Solar Plexus (Third) Chakras.
Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
