The A.R.E. asked for feedback about the effects of individual stones and received the following information regarding bloodstone:
. . . She has worn a bloodstone but at the moment the ring has to be repaired so it has not been worn for some time. While she did wear the bloodstone she noticed no particular effect. Was not aware of any vibrations.
1770-2, Report #14
The Source suggested that bloodstone would bring joy to one client:
. . . might the entity bring a great deal of joy . . . bloodstone . . .
5294-1
The Source also referred to the amazing healing powers of bloodstone in several readings:
. . . bloodstone to send out most healing vibrations for her body . . .
275-11, Report #16
Q: What precious stone sends out the most healing vibrations for my body?
A: . . . the bloodstone.
275-31
Q: What are the entity’s stone, mineral and metal?
A: . . . and as the stone would be the bloodstone . . .
282-7
Hence the bloodstone . . . should be as a stone that would be about the body . . .
816-3
. . . the bloodstone, which is—with its vibrations—that element which from the etheronic energies of nature in itself creates the proper environs for vibratory forces about the entity.
824-1
Do not lay aside the rosary! Have about the entity stones that are red; as the bloodstone . . .
1616-1
Hence the bloodstone . . . is well to ever be about the entity, upon its body; so that the very vibratory forces of same give—with that of thought in constructive force—creative environs or vibrations for the entity in its use or application.
1770-2
. . . Hence we would wear especially the bloodstone, cut in the form of a triangle, though ovaled on its edges. This about the body brings that vibration which will be beneficial; not merely as a good luck charm, not merely as something upon which to depend, but as an influence, a vibration about the entity.
2163-1
Keep the bloodstone close to the body . . .

3657-1
. . . There are those to whom the bloodstone brings harmony, and less of the tendencies for anger; and so with each.

More on Bloodstone
Bloodstone is a term used to describe the dark green variety of chalcedony with red spots. Europeans often refer to this stone as heliotrope, meaning sun turner. The heliotrope name came from the fact that people once believed the stone could turn the rays of the sun red and if placed in water, show the sun as a blood red image.
Chlorite gives bloodstone its dark green color. Iron ore (more commonly known as hematite) causes the red specks to occur.
Although the Bible does not mention bloodstone, legend says that bloodstone was present at the crucifixion of Jesus and that Christ’s blood caused the stone’s red spots. Just as Christ made his sacrifice on the cross, bloodstone allows people to take on its physical properties to heal. When someone holds a bloodstone, the red color is absorbed into the physical body and disappears. Many believe this healing property is yet another example of how Christ allows us to use his energy to transcend.
I’ve seen this happen with my own eyes on more occasions than I can count. Both the red flecks and green chlorite disappeared from these stones after people used them for everything from cancers to blood disorders to heart problems. You name it; bloodstone can heal.
I first saw this phenomenon while working with a very ill client who came to see me for hypnosis. He had a chronic lung condition and kept the bloodstones in his pocket for less than twenty-four hours when the green and red stones faded. One of them turned clear. Later, I told people about this occurrence and heard from people from all over the United States and abroad who wrote to report the fact that their stones had turned colors or had become completely clear.
On a number of occasions I sent bloodstones to people with leukemia, muscular dystrophy, or bone cancer. All of them reported some alleviation of symptoms, although as with all healing, sometimes this experience does not mean that the people survive. None of us will make it out of this life alive. We know that. In my opinion, if any vibrational remedy can alleviate pain and suffering—whether physical or emotional—then it is beneficial.
To this day, I am still not sure why bloodstones react this way or which specific ailments they have helped. Our souls are complicated. We come here to learn lessons, many of which are brought to us through illness. I believe stones can assist with the body, mind, and spirit, making it difficult to pinpoint precisely which aspect of a person has received some healing. In the case of the man with the lung condition, I saw him a year later, and he felt better than ever. Whatever healing crisis he had experienced previously had passed.
Bloodstone allows us to see these shifts physically, which contributes to the many reasons it works so well. All the minerals work to affect our energy systems, yet change is hard to believe without seeing it with our own two eyes. Trust is the foundation of faith, and we should be able to trust without requiring physical evidence. However, seeing something with your own eyes strengthens your belief, and that strength carries over into many areas of life. Once someone has that aha moment of seeing the work that bloodstones can achieve, he or she can suspend disbelief in a number of other therapies and benefit from knowing that there is great power in vibrational remedies.
There is only one other stone I’ve ever seen fade in color from use, and that is the carnelian, which we will discuss in the next section.
The idea of bloodstone’s connection to Christ originated during medieval times
