JET

Use Jet to relieve grief when dealing with the loss of a loved one.

Jet, also known as Black Amber, is a natural organic type of lignite, fossilized wood that is a precursor to coal. It is not just a mineral, but a mineraloid. It sometimes includes pyrite inclusions. The finest quality of jet is found in England, but it is also found in Poland, Spain, and Turkey. It was formed in the early Jurassic period around 182 million years ago. The term “jet black” which means as dark as possible is a reference to this dark colored stone that is usually black but sometimes dark brown. It has been used in England since the Neolithic period. Beads of Jet have been found that were carved during the Bronze Age which began around 3200 B.C. In ancient Roman times, Jet was used as a talisman or amulet to ward off the evil eye. Pliny the Elder wrote that Jet could repel snakes and relieve chronic illness. Jet was a popular jewelry stone during the Victorian Era. It is considered the most healing stone to alleviate grief from the loss of a loved one. It is a strongly grounding stone that eliminates negativity and purifies the aura. It is associated with the root chakra and the astrological sign Capricorn.
