Healing Properties of Rose Quartz
Rose Quartz -
This stone is a
true gem with many special properties. When I was still living in Germany, Cologne
and was running my gemstone and jewelry gallery, I used to have a whole gemstones
treasure corner to choose from. I had woven baskets on the floor with tumbled “semi-
Those tumbled stones were inexpensive and wonderful companions to have in a pocket
to carry them in your energy field or to use them for your altar or shelve at home.
They are also handy to use for meditation by placing them on your body just laying
on your back relaxing into the luxurious feel of visiting your own inner sanctuary
as I call it. The inner sanctuary is that place of peace and connection with deep
joy and happiness, our individual connection with the divine. It is the place of
prayer and inspiration. When I wrote my book Jewelry & Gems for Self-Discovery: Choosing Gemstones that Delight the Eye & Strengthen the Soul
Children admiring the Gemstones
I always enjoyed watching the children in that corner
of my gallery and their direct inner guidance to the stones and how fascinated and
enchanted they were. Many of them would grab this stone and wouldn’t let it go. Sometimes
their mother would buy this Quartz for their child and sometimes I just gave it away.
I heard many stories about children taking their gemstone to bed with them, helping
them sleep. One boy had a little stone collection and would choose every night a
different stone to take to bed with him.
Rose Quartz and Babies
Because of their openness and inner connection little children
still have with the divine, it seems like they don’t need much for balance if they
are well care for. For little babies this stone is the most precious gem to use.
If a baby is fussy and doesn’t sleep well, Rose Quartz is the stone to put under
their mattress. That way there is no chance for them to swallow it and it is still
in the energy field. I would not recommend other stones for babies because it might
prove to be to strong for them.
The Astrological Properties of Rose Quartz
This Quartz is one of the most feminine
stones we have. Its astrological signature is Moon, Venus, Mars and Neptune.
Self-
It is a stone for the heart and has a very sweet, gentle energy nourishing
us on that deep inner level. The loving, unconditional love of the archetypical mother
is conveyed in its touch and establishes our own ability to love ourselves as who
we are without judgment.
Venus adds a sense of value and self-
I think we all need to have Rose Quartz in our life. I have a big chunk of it with my orchid flower and it makes a beautiful still life! And taking it with you to bed, having it under your pillow might be a good idea too.
Times of Grief and Healing
Also in hard times of grieving the loss of a loved one
or challenges with your health, Rose Quartz can be your healing priestess and adding
her healing touch (Neptune) to your process, helping you to keep your faith. She
is nourishing your body, heart and soul with her gentle touch; giving you hope and
perseverance. All red stones have Mars qualities
The sweet pink of Lady Rose Quartz
is a very tempered source for Mars energy. Here Mars and Venus are in a deep communion
with each other, the lover and the beloved are in balance in the heart. Because of
that it can help you to find that inner balance and peace in your heart in traumatic
times of relationship break-
An Abundant Stone
This Gem belongs to the group of quartz with a hardness of 7 on
the Mohs’ hardness scale. It is found in abundance in many places in the world, especially
in Brasil. It is not a very expensive stone. You can find them as chunks, tumbled
nuggets, cut stones for jewelry, ornamental pieces or as necklaces. I believe it
is a friend everybody should have in their life. I hope I have inspired you to explore
with this gem and experience his magic touch for yourself.
