Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz is known as a stone for the heart that carries the energy for compassion, peace, tenderness and healing, nourishment and comfort. Its energy is that of unconditional love that opens the Heart Chakra. This makes rose quartz a stone for every type of love: self-love, family, platonic, romantic, and unconditional. Rose Quartz is a calming and reassuring crystal, excellent for use in trauma or crisis, including the emotional upheaval of mid-life crisis. It strengthens empathy, sensitivity, and aids in the acceptance of necessary change. It dissolves the sorrows, worries, fears and resentments suppressing the heart's ability to give and receive love, and replaces it with healing, comfort and inner nourishment. It promotes bonding and our ancestors believed it to be a good stone for a mother to carry during pregnancy and to be near the baby during birth. It is also soothing in the days to follow. A deep sense of personal fulfillment and energy forms a new foundation where inner peace and contentment can become a personal reality. It is also an excellent stone for comforting grief. In times of grief, you may begin to isolate yourself from your friends and family. Rose quartz can help bring love into your life and help you feel accepted and supported during this trying time.
