Rose Quartz Necklace

Gold plated brass necklace with irregular shape natural stone.

The oldest pink quartzes were found in Mesopotamia (Iraq today) and date back to 6000 BC The Assyrians used these stones to create magnificent jewels, to be used for both aesthetic and esoteric purposes. Rose quartz is today one of the best known and most loved minerals, as well as among the top 5 or 6 minerals that I have purchased myself. I have several specimens of this very positive stone, considered the stone of fertility and eternal youth. All the pink quartzes I have are not too intense pink, some tumbled and others rough.

A Greek legend has it that it was the god Eros who gave this mineral to men. According to an oriental legend, however, two young people in love but of different social caste, were forced to meet in secret and each time the boy brought a white rose as a gift to his beloved. The story ended in tragedy, when her father found out about the affair, he killed them. The rose they held in their hands turned to stone, turning into rose quartz.

With its trigonal crystal system, it is suitable for practical people, who want to tackle problems directly. Born from a primary lithogenetic process, this means that, like all other quartz, it is a lava stone.

Rose quartz was also used in Egypt to preserve youth, beauty and love. Connected to the 4th chakra, it is used in crystal therapy to promote the purest feelings and harmony.

Rose quartz: properties on the mind, body and spirit

One of the feminine stones par excellence. It represents the element of water and is perfectly charged under the lunar influences. Being a quartz, it is good to avoid direct sun. He mainly works on the sphere of emotions, promoting femininity, compassion and intuition. In crystal therapy, however, this stone is also attributed with abilities in the physical sphere. Let's now look at the properties of rose quartz in the various spheres of life.

Benefits for the mind

Rose quartz works on the human psyche, helping the person to accept even the most difficult changes, especially those that result from an emotional separation. It gives comfort and helps to open up to love, despite past suffering. When rose quartz leads the person to “excess”, the much sought-after sensitivity can even become susceptibility.

It is also considered the stone of artists, as it manages to develop a love for beauty.

In my opinion, however, it would be completely reductive to say that rose quartz helps to open up to love towards one's neighbor. In fact, most of us tend to feel this feeling towards a rather small number of individuals, transforming love into possessiveness, selfishness, jealousy etc.

When we say that rose quartz opens to love, we mean the purest Love, the unconditional one, which goes has nothing to do with physical attraction. The love one could feel for a brother, whose face is found in every form of life in creation. We then enter the spiritual sphere.
