Jasper is especially helpful for people who easily burn out. It will help achieve a subtle balance between giving and receiving; and can teach how to stay balanced and replenish the inner energy resources.
And Rami trust me the mummies i touched and seen are different :) it is not royla mummy by the way.
Tribal Heritage
ancient egypts also turned the faces of their deads towards NORTH not east and north is the direction of the Newborn and Pharonic new yeat which is the 19th of July in our calender this is the correct date and there is another openion that its the 23rd of July.
East ment life west ment death to ancient Egyptian Tribal but the reborn is thing else.
the head directed to the North due to the newborn star is in the North direction. and as mentioned the newborn is date to ancient Egyptian newyear date which is the day this star appears on the north direction.
ok, thank you a lot. i know jasper. this one do not look at all as jasper. this looks to me the stone that the pyramides are made from. it is the millions yers dry ocean ground stones. we recognise it throw the fossils that makes the 90 % of the pyramides
