Since then, this mineral has yet to be discovered anywhere else on Earth and geologists don’t expect to find another deposit of it anytime soon. This is an extremely rare occurrence in nature that simply doesn’t happen and it should be cherished, respected, and valued for the true uniqueness it holds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stone was originally called Batu Badar Blerang, which translates into “Fumerole Jasper” but was renamed “Honeybee Jasper”, “Bumble Bee Jasper”, “Eclipse Jasper” and several others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUnfortunately this material, and many others have fallen victim to bad publicity due to AI triggers and uninformed keyboards warriors. Hundreds of materials in their raw form can be potentially hazardous if ingested but considered safe to handle in polished form. Do your own research and don’t react to unfounded sensationalism. I would however avoid keeping this material in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as this may cause the Para Realgar portion to perhaps deteriorate over time. Have some common sense when handling any mineral, crystal etc - there are not food !\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBumble Bee Jasper is formed in fumeroles, which are cracks in the earth’s crust near volcanoes where steam and gas can escape. Some fumeroles only last a few weeks or months, while others persist for decades or even centuries.  The word fumerole comes from the Latin “fumus” meaning “to smoke.” Fumeroles can be found on volcanoes around the world.  But the unique combination of geology on Mount Papandayan in West Java, Indonesia is the only location known to produce this material. Bee Jasper is considered one of the “youngest” rocks in the world and new deposits are being formed today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBumble Bee Jasper is actually not a true Jasper as it does not contain any Quartz. This material is a Calcium Carbonate, (Calcite) mineral combination of volcanic matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBumble Bee Jasper is a strong earth energy stone, that embodies within it the strong energy of the volcano from which it was birthed and is full of the yellow ray of vitality and optimism. Very supportive during times of stress or depression it can help us to see new possibilities and feel confident to express our adventurous spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBumble Bee Jasper activates the Sacral and Solar Plexus chakras, enabling you to accept change, find new opportunities, increase your self-esteem and make decisions without relying on emotions. It reminds you that the possibilities are limitless because the only limits are the ones you put on yourself. Connecting with its energy helps you embrace a more positive disposition and have confidence in all that you are doing. The bumble bee jasper properties remove any blocked energy within these chakras to bring forth your creative talents and increase your motivation and willpower. It helps you to manifest your highest good. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBumble Bee Jasper is a stone of adventure. It stimulates one’s mental acuity, so one is more able to notice the ‘cubic centimeter of chance’— the moment when golden opportunities arise, and can be seized, if done quickly. These stones can increase the level of activation of the complex of neurons in the gut, making it possible to more readily be aware of one’s ‘gut feelings,’ or instincts. Our instincts must become conscious in us if we are to benefit from this aspect of our intelligence. Bee Jasper helps this process through its intensification of the energies in these areas. Should one choose one or more creative adventures in life, Bumblebee ‘Jasper’ can be an ideal stone companion. It stimulates courage, assertiveness, endurance and concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn general, Jasper is known as the “supreme nurturer”. It sustains and supports during times of stress, and brings tranquility and wholeness. Used in healing, Jasper unifies all aspects of your life. Jasper reminds people to help each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe  word Jasper comes from “iaspi” a Greek word that means “spotted stone”. Jasper is an opaque rock of virtually any color stemming from the mineral content of the original sediments or ash. Patterns arise during the consolidation process forming flow and depositional patterns in the original silica rich sediment or volcanic ash, Hydrothermal action is generally thought to be required in the formation of jasper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJasper can be modified by the diffusion of minerals along discontinuities providing the appearance of vegetative growth, i.e., dendritic. The original materials are often fractured and\/or distorted, after deposition, into diverse patterns, which are later filled in with other colorful minerals. Weathering, with time, will create intensely colored superficial rinds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe classification and naming of jasper varieties presents a challenge. Terms attributed to various well-defined materials includes the geographic locality where it is found, sometimes quite restricted such as \"Bruneau\" (a canyon) and \"Lahontan\" (a lake), rivers and even individual mountains; many are fanciful, such as \"forest fire\" or \"rainbow\", while others are descriptive, such as \"autumn\" or \"porcelain\". A few are designated by the place of origin such as a brown Egyptian or red African.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NaturesgiftsByChris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49616675406101,"sku":null,"price":64.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0870\/2453\/3781\/files\/3e50d204-il_fullxfull.6561323991_fx1k.jpg?v=1765592385","url":"https:\/\/naturesgiftsbychris.com\/products\/92g-indonesian-bee-jasper-sphere-2a","provider":"NaturesgiftsByChris","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
