Rose Quartz
Rose quartz is such a beautiful stone. It can be a pale pastel type of pink as well as bright pink mixed with white quartz. It is found in many areas of the world but Brazil, Madagascar and South Dakota are among the top areas where it can be found. Rose quartz grows in large massive stones and very small natural crystals. Clear quartz, amethyst and citrine are all in the quartz family and they grow into large crystals. But natural rose quartz crystals are not only rare, they are quite small. They are usually no larger than 1/4 inch tall. So all the large polished rose quartz "crystals" you see have actually been shaped and polished from large massive pieces of rose quartz. But this doesn't detract from their beauty or their wonderful metaphysical properties.
Rose quartz is a gently stone that works at the 4th, or heart, chakra. It is all about love: compassion, love and unconditional love for oneself and others. It helps us heal emotional wounds as well to be more heart based and less "head" based. We should all have to carry some rose quartz with us! We also carry pocket sized rose quartz in our tumbled stones section.
