Jade Meaning & History
Jade is a collective term encompassing various gemstones. Nephrite and Jadeite are the only pure forms of Jade. Its history goes several centuries back when its use was to make tools and weapons because of its hardness. The Aztecs and Mayans held it in high regard.
“Jade” comes from “Piedra de Ijada” in Spanish. After seeing Central American natives hold pieces of it by their side, Spanish explorers gave it the name, believing it would cure ills. This gemstone is called “Yu” in China, meaning imperial or heavenly. The gemstone was considered imperial in the Chinese culture and was found in the tombs of Shang monarchs in China.
Jade has also played a role in New Zealand’s heritage. You can find it on New Zealand’s South Island and has long been prized by the Maoris, who refer to it as “greenstone,” “pounamu,” or the “New Zealand jade.” It has been used in making Maori tools, including fishing hooks and chisels, ornaments, and weapons like short clubs. The Jade found in New Zealand is Nephrite in most cases.
In Russia, a spinach-green Nephrite called the Russian Jade is found in the region around Lake Baikal. Jadeite is rarer compared to Nephrite, making it more precious. The even and striking emerald green Jadeite called Imperial Jade is the most invaluable variety.
Siberian Blue Jade (Dianite)
Siberian Blue Jade was discovered in 1997 in Eastern Siberia, Russia. Because it was found in the same year Princess Diana of Wales died in a car crash, it was named Dianite in her honor. Blue is also a color of truth and honesty, principles that Princess Diana lived according to. The late Princess was authentic to herself and never was willing to compromise for these virtues.
Siberian Blue Jade is a crystal of emotional expression, imparting thoughtful dialog and clarity of assigning words to our complex feelings. Dianite expands your IQ and EQ, allowing you to communicate with precision and love. The watery-blue healing crystal helps in nurturing and developing successful relationships.
Dianite will guide your heart as it ventures through the turbulent waters of life, keeping it on course and afloat always. The gem is marketed as Nephrite or Imitation jade.
To those who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or hurried, Dianite is supportive. The uplifting stone helps you remain relaxed in stressful situations. It helps in relieving frustrations and anger. It is called philosopher stone because it encourages us to view the occurrence from another perspective.
Dianite can help you think about what you had done or said in the past. You can draw on your past lessons and their effect on your being today—the crystal.
Dianite inspires both extensive and coherent thinking, helping to make us more creative, and prompts a sense of harmony. Dianite is believed to treat instances of hyperactivity and make the person holding it feel kindhearted.

Blue Jade and Chakra
Blue Jade stimulates and clears the throat chakra, allowing self-expression and sound healing energies. Blue Jade can activate the crown chakra as a visionary and dream crystal.
The throat chakra is the body’s voice, a pressure valve through which the energies from other chakras get expressed. If the throat chakra is out of balance or blocked, it may affect the wellbeing and health of other chakras. When at balance, it allows us to express our feelings and thoughts. We can communicate our ideas, emotions, and beliefs.
When it is open, and at balance, the throat chakra helps you bring your truth into the world. Energy can easily flow within our spirit and body. The energy springing upward from lower chakras can stay on course, allowing natural release and free expression.
The crown chakra is the gateway to your expanded universe beyond your body. It is on top of your head. Crown chakra controls how you think and respond to the surrounding environment. It is the source of your spirituality and fountainhead of what you believe in. When the Crown chakra is balanced, your energies are balanced. You know your place within the universe and can see anything as it is. Setbacks do not raffle you because you know they form a vital part of life.
