Crystal of the Week
This translucent pink quartz crystal also known as Hyaline Quartz is often associated with universal love and compassion, not only with family and friends, but as suggested universally sharing love and compassion with all that surrounds us.
The Rose Quartz is directly linked to the heart and throat chakra promoting harmony, healing, and self-love to the wearer. This is a very feminine and comforting crystal that connects us to our environment both physically and spiritually.
With regards to zodiac signs, Taurus has the Rose Quartz crystal as its transmitter of positive energy and love. With that in mind and Venus being the Taureans ruling planet, most born under this sign find pleasure in obtaining materialistic things they desire. (Don’t we all…) Rose Quartz helps guide and control these impulsive behaviours to lead a balanced and less anxious life.
The number 7 is also associated with this stone. If your birthdate is the 7th or your lucky number 7 make it part of your dress code as a piece of jewellery or secretly embedded in clothing. Especially if worn to attract a love interest.
The Ancient Egyptians and Romans used and believed that Rose Quartz had rejuvenating properties and used them as part of their beauty treatments.
This crystal is also a popular crystal whilst practicing Feng Shui. Place a crystal in the centre of your home and it will bring love and happiness to all that enter.
When cleansing this pretty pink crystal look to employ nature using the gifts that earth has given us. Allow a stream to gently wash over or take to the beach and place it in a rock pool allowing natural energy to cleanse. Following cleansing, you can Smudge to remove any negative energies which may be residing in the stone.
Finally to recharge, place it under a full moon, and allow the stone time to replenish its energies overnight.
Rose Quartz is such a feminine crystal full of love, healing, and compassion. Certainly a powerful crystal that belongs in any collection, whether your hobby is lapidary or for spiritual guidance. A gift from nature, amplifying our love and healing our souls.
I hope you enjoyed this pint-sized article and I have increased your awareness and knowledge of this exquisite stone.
