Rose Quartz is a stone of love, inner peace, and calming ambience. It is often used to purify and cleanse the aura. Rose Quartz is said to bring about self-love, acceptance of oneself and others, compassion, empathy and forgiveness. It can help to connect us with our higher self, spirit guides or angels.
The healing properties of Rose Quartz include: Healing emotional wounds and promoting emotional stability; calming; alleviating depression; healing after heartbreak; relieving stress-related ailments such as headaches, insomnia and tachycardia; promoting feelings of joy and optimism; enhancing self-awareness; facilitating meditation; increasing creativity; reducing irritability & impatience; improving relationships with others by helping one communicate more clearly; calming hyperactivity in children by encouraging them to focus their attention better on tasks at hand (see also Amethyst).
Rose Quartz has been known throughout history as a stone of love due to its strong resonance with the heart chakra (fourth dimensional layer), which is located just above the breastbone in our physical body but also extends into higher dimensions beyond time & space itself.
