What Does Burmese Jade Mean?
According to legend, jade is a symbol of purity and serenity, signifying wisdom
gathered in tranquility. Associated with the heart chakra, it increases
love and nurturing.
In China, jadeite is
considered so precious that there is a saying that goes, "gold is
valuable while jade is priceless". They believe that a jadeite bangle
absorbs negative energy, protecting the wearer. It is also believed that
jadeite reflects the life of the wearer, becoming more brilliant and
brighter during good times and losing its luster in times of suffering.
Many
gems therapists view jade as a protective stone, keeping the wearer
away from harm. Burmese jade is believed to cure pains in the side of
the body. It is thought to possess health-strengthening properties,
encourage longevity, and assist in fertility and childbirth. Green jade
calms the nervous system and channels passion in constructive ways. It
is said to attract good luck and friendship.
