Metaphysical Properties of Chestnut Jasper

Chestnut Jasper is a gemstone for grounding to the Earth's energy and opening your Chakras to alignment and harmony. Chestnut Jasper is a peaceful and passive gemstone that helps you filter negative energy from you and open your mind. Because it blends the strengths of Red Jasper with Yellow and Brown Jaspers, it is a stone that lends itself to acts of integrity and philanthropy, promoting a generous but fair mindset. It is a perfect focus for those who are trying to let go of pessimistic mindsets, inspiring a harmonious emotional landscape. Chestnut Jasper lets us look more kindly on ourselves and others, finding the good and encouraging positive growth.

Chestnut Jasper is marked with streaks of red, dark-red, tan, and brown. Often, these colors may also blend together, creating a more muted “nutty” red-brown tone from which this Jasper gets its name. It is a variant of Red Jasper, and is denoted by a coloration that blends Red and Brown or Red and Yellow Jaspers. Like all Jaspers, it may feature natural pits or brecciation (inclusions of Quartz, Agate, or Hematite).
