Rose Quartz is LOVE in rock language
“We awaken in others the same attitude of mind we hold toward them.” -- Elbert Hubbard
Just like all the languages of the Earth, there are hundreds, if not thousands of different crystals to choose from. Each one vibrates at it's own rate, creating fields around them that, if you tune in to them like a radio station, communicate messages to us. They speak a language to our subconscious, and those messages can affect our emotions in subtle, but powerful ways.
Rose Quartz is a beautiful stone with beautiful properties. It is known as the Stone of Love, and has so many uses it's a great crystal to start with. It transmits messages, or energies, of Compassion, Peace, Harmony and Healing that can transform lower negative emotions such as Anger and Resentment into energies of Love. Providing emotional healing of Pain, Fears, Resentment, Stress and Anger, it brings about higher degrees of Peace and Calmness, basically giving the ability to see goodness in one's self and others.
Rose Quartz is believed to provide a deep sense of personal fulfillment, contentment and love. It's often used to increase self-esteem and self-worth by increasing the Love and Forgiveness toward one's self.
If you are having trouble with your relationships, keeping a Rose Quartz near you naturally helps the situation by easing the negativity on both sides. So many times the cause of problems in our relationships are because of some lack of forgiveness towards our selves. Rose Quartz helps to create closer bonds with family and friends.
Since Rose Quartz activates the Heart Chakra and brings about higher emotions and Love, which is necessary for spiritual development, it is considered an effective crystal for spirituality.
Try keeping a few tumbled stones in your pocket throughout the day, or under your pillow at night. I like to set little stones in the 4 corners of my home, keeping the space inside peaceful at all times. They're like little sentries, keeping a lookout and protecting your space! Wearing Rose Quartz in a bracelet makes me feel a little bit of Love when I look at it throughout the day, and we could all use more of that!
