Red Jasper & Ruby is our most warming gemstone formula. It brings healing life energy to areas in need, increases motivation and forward momentum, and helps distribute heat evenly throughout the body to alleviate coldness and excess heat.
Great for:
Warming cold areas of the body • Easing inflammation • Overcoming apathy and procrastination • Increasing energy and motivation • Feeling more comfortable in your body
One of Red Jasper’s primary functions involves balancing heat, or life energy, in the body. This can be experienced as more evenly distributed body temperature.
If an area isn’t getting enough life energy, it can be perceived as feeling cold. When you wear Red Jasper & Ruby, its energy locates and fills those parts of your body that have lost their warmth. As these areas receive this energy, they can feel warmer.
When too much heat collects in the body, it can manifest as pain, inflammation, or general discomfort.
Wearing Red Jasper supports the body to balance the excess energies involved. This can aid in the flushing of toxins and help relieve aches in swollen joints, hot flashes, and feverishness. When heat stagnates and stresses the body, Red Jasper gets it moving again so you feel comfortably warm and not overly hot.
A healthy person’s body has a relatively even distribution of heat, or life energy, that allows them to feel comfortably warm. Once the balance of hot and cold in the body is upset, it can be difficult to regain. If life energy retreats from your feet, for example, to help heal another area, an outside influence is usually required to get it back. Wearing Red Jasper & Ruby can help restore a balance of heat in your body and make it easier for life energy to return to your feet.
With the gems’ help, cold areas of low energy receive heat from areas where too much has accumulated or where excess heat is no longer needed. As that heat is dispersed, it is distributed to areas in need of life energy—namely areas that feel cold. Red Jasper & Ruby supports good energy flows in the body so this redistribution can take place. In addition to warming cold areas, this can also alleviate apathy and lack of motivation, which often coincide with low vitality caused by poor energy flows.
Heat is a key part of the body’s natural healing process. Wherever you have an injury, surgery, inflammation, or toxic accumulation, extra life energy is required. To provide that energy, the body redirects its incoming life energy to that area.
If there isn’t enough life energy coming in because of blockages or poor energy flows, healing is inhibited. When you wear Red Jasper, it supports energy movement throughout the body so that those areas get what they need.
People who don’t feel well after moderate exercise often have an imbalance that interferes with their ability to manage heat. Internal organs should be generally cooler than muscles.
If there’s an imbalance in the body’s temperature distribution, exercise can overheat the organs and leave the person feeling drained. By reallocating life energy in the body, Red Jasper helps restore this balance for faster, more complete recovery.
Likewise, athletes may want to refine this temperature balance so their bodies can perform at their best.
Red Jasper’s symbiotic gemstone is Ruby.
Ruby is essential to this formula because its own warming effects support the work of Red Jasper. It drives Red Jasper energy deeper into a person’s body and being, where it can help resolve stagnancy, sluggishness, and lack of heat.
Ruby provides an abundance of the red color ray, which brings life-giving energy to the body and reminds it how to direct that energy, or heat, to depleted areas. The red ray also supports inner strength, motivation, and a certain mechanism that allows spent energy to leave the body so that new life energy can come in. When this mechanism works properly, it raises the body’s vibrations and supports forward movement, further enhancing this formula’s benefits.
There’s a science to how we design our gemstone formulas. We take every element into account, from the types of gems we select to their quantities and arrangements. This allows us to maximize not only the gemstones’ effects, but also their numerological influence.
We designed the Red Jasper & Ruby formula to incorporate the numbers three and four.
Red Jasper appears in multiples of three, which promotes change and keeps energy moving. This is essential to help Red Jasper redistribute heat and free up stagnant energy. Any other numerology would conflict with or inhibit this effect.
We use four Ruby, two on each side, to complement the Red Jasper. The number four focuses Ruby’s work on the physical body and provides stability for the changes the Red Jasper is making.
Since the product of three times four is twelve, this number’s influence is also important. It brings the gems’ energies to your entire being and helps you see things from a higher perspective, where your thoughts and feelings can’t get in the way.
For most people, a Red Jasper & Ruby necklace between 22 and 30 inches works best. At this length, it sits below the heart or at the lowest portion of it.
Red Jasper’s color ranges from red to terracotta red-orange. If a bead’s color is muddy, smoky, or discolored in any way, it is unacceptable for therapeutic use.
Black and gray patches not only dull the color, but they also have a cooling effect—which cancels out the gem’s warming benefits! We use only evenly colored Red Jasper in our jewelry.
Ideally, all therapeutic-quality Red Jasper would be completely free of inclusions and discolorations, but that would make it extraordinarily rare. The gem naturally comes with thick black lines. While the Earth needs these veins for its own energy distribution, they are not therapeutic for the human body. Our standard 3A-quality Red Jasper has such thin veining that it doesn’t compromise the gem’s healing benefits.
Candescence is the quality of polish, and cut is the quality of roundness.
The highest cut rating we give is 3A, which denotes perfectly round spheres and evenly shaped rondels.
3A Red Jasper may have some grayish-red patches and/or very thin black lines or freckles that are relatively easy to see.
4A Red Jasper won’t have any gray, but its coloration may vary among shades of red. Gems with 4A clarity will have very slight black markings.
5A Red Jasper will have consistent coloration. Gems with 5A clarity will be only very, very slightly included.
6A Red Jasper will have particularly rich and even color, and a 6A clarity rating is given when there are no visible markings of any kind, even when held up to bright sunlight.
For best results, wear your Red Jasper & Ruby by itself for at least a day or two without any other gemstones. Then, if you have other healing gemstone necklaces, you can add them one at a time. Spend anywhere from a few hours to a day wearing each one with Red Jasper before adding or swapping it with another.
Some people will feel the gems’ support within minutes after putting on the necklace, especially if they’re accustomed to how gemstones work and know what to look for. For others, these gems may take some getting used to, and they may not notice a difference until after a few days.
You might find that your body wants the necklace very much for a while, but then you have to take it off. The body needs time to acclimate to the changes the gems have initiated before it can handle more of their energy. Give yourself a break from the gems and try again the next day.
In cases of intense symptoms, an improved sense of warmth or a reduction in excess heat buildup has appeared almost immediately. Over time, as heat and life energy become more evenly distributed throughout your body, it becomes easier and more comforting to wear Red Jasper & Ruby.
Benefits tend to accumulate even without everyday wear. But try to wear the gems at least a few times a week to keep your body familiar with their energies. As with all healing gemstone necklaces, stay alert to signs from your body to remove the gems as needed. Eventually, you may find yourself craving the warmth these gems can provide.
Our 8mm Red Jasper is our standard recommended size, but those looking for gentler support may prefer to work with 6mm gemstones. The smaller size is better suited for those who want a more gradual approach or find it uncomfortable to wear the heavier 8mm necklace.
Since Red Jasper & Ruby is the most warming formula we offer, avoid wearing it with Aquamarine & Mother of Pearl, which is our most cooling formula. The two influences may work against each other and confuse your body.
If your body is calling for both necklaces, it may indicate significant temperature extremes. Rather than wearing them together, try wearing Red Jasper & Ruby for shorter periods of time. You might also alternate it with the Aquamarine.

Therapeutic gemstones naturally accumulate unwanted energies when you wear them. These energies are what the gems help your body to release, or what they naturally pick up from their environment either during use or when stored. If your necklaces aren’t cleansed completely or often enough, unwanted energies will build up. The gemstones’ therapeutic value will be limited, and you’ll no longer feel drawn to wear them.
While opening the clasp after use disperses the bulk of unwanted energies, the gemstones still must be regularly and thoroughly cleansed to remain beneficial to the wearer. As unwanted energies collect, they can make the necklace feel heavy and you’ll no longer feel like wearing it.
GEMFormulas clearing sprays are superior for cleansing and rejuvenating gemstones because they can clear energies that have collected not only from your body, but also from your emotions, memory, and mind.
Cleansing your gemstones with water does not clear energies from these subtle areas. Plus, frequent water cleansing can dull the surface of gems such as Mother of Pearl, Malachite, and Lapis. GEMFormulas clearing sprays are safe for all types of gemstones.
Arrange your therapeutic gemstone necklaces and bracelets in neat spirals with their clasps open. This orientation concentrates the gemstones’ energies and helps rejuvenate them. Use a necklace tray to keep them organized and to keep the gemstone energies separated, so that it’s easier to select the right necklace. Store your therapeutic gemstone jewelry away from sources of electromagnetic radiation, such as laptops, television sets, and cell phones.

This design feels like what I thought Poppy Jasper would do. Poppy Jasper for me (5A) feels like an infrared sauna radiating inside my body and I can often sleep while using it. Red Jasper-Ruby (5A) is impossible for me to sleep with. It also does not feel directly warming like a sauna or heating pad, however it gets insanely hot when I wear it. It works best for me putting it on in the morning and later on maybe adding a necklace or 2. After the covid vaccine my temperature regulation has been chronically malfunctioning. After getting a flu virus and wearing this necklace, the effects from the vaccine that Ive been struggling with for 1,5 years have been greatly reduced. There are no more violent nightly sweats. I also feel more energy, like my body doesnt have to work so hard to generate inflammation all the time. It feels like turing off an overcompensation.

Wow! This necklace, which I am wearing regularly and supporting with Poppy Jasper, Rhythm and/or Rhyolite-Grey Moonstone as needed, is amazing for getting past physical fatigue. A power combination for vague mitochondria issues.
