Stations of the Cross Chaplet
In honor of Lent I am offering another Stations of the Cross chaplet. It is very much like the chaplet I posted earlier in the week except that the beads are 5mm by 6mm Hematite. Hematite is also known as The Bloodstone, Hema being derived from the Greek word for blood. It seems strange that a stone, a mineral actually, that is a shiny, silvery gray color should be known as the Bloodstone. However, if you break a piece of Hematite open, the center of it is red. What stone can be more appropriate to use to meditate on the Via Crucis where Christ shed his scared blood for us. Please click here to learn more about this chaplet and please visit my shop HolyNameRosaries.com to see more of my unbreakable rosaries and chaplets.
