Kiwi Jasper: and "Sesame Jasper" are interchangeable trade names for a black speckled stone often mixed with translucent crystalline formations.

Like all jaspers, sesame jasper is a nurturing stone. It nourishes and supports us in times of stress, bringing peace and wholeness. Used in healing, it unites all aspects of life. Jasper aligns the chakras and absorbs negative energy. The name Jasper is derived from the Greek word Iaspis, meaning "spotted stone." Sesame Jasper and Kiwi Jasper are names used to describe this beautiful Jasper. This variety of Jasper is a mint green with flecks of black, reminiscent of dots. Kiwi/Sesame Jasper is a pale seafoam green with black and clear crystal flecks throughout the stone. It is a nurturing stone, a good stone for healers to use. It is a good stone for those in counseling or therapy who want to overcome addictions or compulsive behaviors and gather their strength for emotional battles. It is a powerful stone for those who stand for justice and fair play. Despite its natural color, this is not a soft kind of energy, but incredibly vibrant and stimulating. It elevates one's spirit and lifts the mood. This "euphoria" is not the kind that makes you lose your thinking process, but amplifies the natural impulse of love, which brings about a shift in attitude, mood, and spirit. This, in turn, helps with balance in the art of giving and receiving.
