This mineral is a source of positive energy, tranquility and peace. We explain how the stone of love can contribute to your life.
Rose quartz is known as the stone of love for its positive
and harmonious energies. Its chakra is the heart, so it is especially related
to feelings, and it is compatible with all the zodiac signs. In Ancient Rome
and Greece it was believed that this mineral came from the goddesses of love
and beauty. Another legend tells that its origin is found in a rose, which was
transformed into quartz when a true love relationship ended due to the
intervention of the couple's parents.
Rose quartz properties
Just as lapis lazuli is the stone of communication or
amethyst, the stone of harmony, rose quartz also has its properties. The very
delicate appearance, of a pastel pink color, seems to convey the very
personality of this stone: it represents passion, sensuality and tenderness.
The main property for which it is known is undoubtedly its strong ability to
attract romantic and unconditional love. After all, it is considered the stone
of Aphrodite.
Its relaxing capacity eliminates the tensions that we
accumulate, sometimes unconsciously, in our body and mind. When we carry this
stone with us, it gives us a sense of peace by replacing negative energies with
positive ones. Therefore, if we are sad or worried, it will help us calm down
and balance our thoughts.
On a physical level, it is an ally to cure ailments. For
example, in Hinduism it is considered one of the most valuable stones thanks to
its ability to release the sorrows and pain that we keep inside us.
Benefits and uses of rose quartz
The properties of this spiritual stone mean that its
benefits go hand in hand with relationships, both loving and family and between
friends, managing to strengthen the bonds between people. It is perfect for
promoting understanding and respect, key aspects in any relationship.
But its benefits go beyond the relationships we have with
others, because it contributes to self-esteem and self- esteem. If you are on
the boat of meditation, having a rose quartz nearby will help you achieve a
state of clarity and mental relaxation.
In matters of beauty we have seen it used as a facial
massager, because it improves blood circulation. Its benefits have been pointed
out when it comes to dealing with stress or anxiety and, most curiously, as a
filter that blocks the electromagnetic waves that surround us.
It is very effective when it is in a space in the house
dedicated to rest or if we take it to the level of the heart; you can wear it
on a pendant or, as Miranda Kerr does, placed inside the bra, on the right
side. Attention, do not combine it with opposing minerals with a lot of energy.
How to clean rose quartz
We are not talking about cleaning the spiritual stone for
aesthetics, but about releasing the energies that it has accumulated. Once a
month we must immerse our stone in sea salt or seawater for a whole day, and
dry it in the sun for at least six hours. But, be careful, we cannot let it get
direct sunlight, since it can lose its color.
