“Jade is a name for two minerals with similar toughness and appearances.  Jadeite is the more highly prized harder mineral, while Nephrite is more prolific and is softer.  Jadeite is a sodium aluminum silicate with diopside while nephrite is magnesium, calcium silicate with the presence of iron. Nephrite is composed of interlocking fibrous crystals, while Jadeite is composed of granular crystals.”

THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HEART CHAKRA We are in relationship with everything. Relationship is part of our lives down to minutia! Obviously, we are in relationship with people, but less obvious is the relationship that we have with ourselves.Our connection with other people has a multitude of levels, including friendship, neighbors, acquaintances, coworkers, employees, supervisors, authority figures, family, extended family and so on. Additionally, relationship exists between us and animals, nature in all its forms, and inanimate objects, such as cars, computers, TVs, sofas, recliners, beds and more. The less obvious connection with ourselves has just as many layers, but it takes conscious intention to uncover the awareness of the love we have for ourselves. And within all our connections there are emotions, reactions and feelings, as well as unconditional love.All of our relationship connections come from the heart, which is the center of ourselves. It is the area in our “beingness” where a bridge exists. This bridge provides the connection from the lower three chakras of earth-centered connection to the upper three chakras of heaven-centered connection. It is the bridge connecting heaven and earth within our own consciousness. The heart center is love—pure love.
