Burmese Jade & Bloodstone Sacred Heart of Jesus Rosary This rosary combines a cross with Latin lettering and a Sacred Heart of Jesus center medal with Burmese jade and bloodstone beads. The beautiful green color of Burmese jade symbolizes a rich forest and has been revered since ancient times. It is believed to bring health, longevity, virtue, ward off evil, promote prosperity in business, and bring good luck, and is considered a stone that repels all disasters. Bloodstone is used for the six Our Father/Glory Be beads. According to one legend of bloodstone, when Jesus Christ was crucified, fresh blood dripped from his wounds onto the green earth and turned into stone. The red patterns evoke the holy blood, making it a mysterious stone.
