  Bloodstone: (also called "Heliotrope"), is a green stone with red spots. It also occurs in shades of dark green with red, brown and multicolour blotches. The iron minerals cause the deep red and brown colors.  Bloodstone is the dark-green variety of the silica mineral Chalcedony that has nodules of bright-red Jasper distributed throughout its mass. Its physical properties are those of Quartz.  Polished sections therefore show red spots on a dark-green background, and from the resemblance of these to drops of blood it derives its name. "Heliotrope" derives its name from Greek words meaning "sun" and "turning". In the Middle Ages, Bloodstone was attributed special powers as the spots were thought to be the blood of Jesus Christ. It was used in sculptures representing flagellation and martyrdom. Bloodstone is found in Australia, Brazil, China, India, Africa and the USA (Wyoming).

In ancient times, Bloodstone was thought to be able to stop hemorrhages with the merest touch. Bloodstone is said to relieve stomach and bowel pain, strengthen blood purifying organs and improve blood circulation. Bloodstone has a positive influence on a bladder.  Bloodstone is also used to help one become more knowledgeable in the ways of the world and is believed to be a very magical stone.
