Rose Quartz
By admin on Jul. 22, 2008.
Rose quartz is a type of quartz which exhibits a pale pink to rose red hue. It’s a stone with a sweet and soft healing energy. Children often intuitively choose this stone because they feel strongly connected to the soft atmosphere that rose quartz radiates. For them it’s an ideal stone that doesn’t disturb their childhood atmosphere.
In puberty rose quartz is also a good companion which will help to slowly grow towards adulthood and yet to stay in touch with the protective safe feeling that childhood provides. Rose quartz is an excellent stone for adults who experience problems with sensitivity because they - for example - work in a tough, materialistic atmosphere. Rose quartz reconnects them with this soft feeling, with their inner child.
I recommend everyone to wear a rose quartz once in a while. It will bring you in touch with your true feelings, which makes you feel whole again. Even self love and acceptance is restored by rose quartz, especially if it is worn near the heart. Self love is necessary, because people who don’t love themselves, are unable to love another person.
Rose quartz is an inspiring stone for creative people that will help to express beautiful things (such as paintings, music) that arose out of love. It opens the heart chakra to all forms of love: self love, mother- and family love, platonic love, romantic love, kindness, compassion. Rose quartz radiates an excellent protective energy during pregnancy and childbirth.
You can place a rose quartz (the raw mineral) in any place where creativity and love should be enhanced. A nursery is a very suitable room to put a piece of rose quartz. Keep a small piece of cut or uncut rose quartz near the cradle and the baby will be quiet and happy.
